Crystal J $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Crystal. As a mother of three boys, and now a grandmother of three, I bring my experience as a compassionate and reliable caregiver. Adept in supporting children, seniors, and pets. I LOVE ALL BABIES, PETS, and GRANDPARENTS! Creative, playful, and patient with the kids. Dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing environment while meeting diverse needs. Strong communication and problem-solving abilities help me build trust with families. Always attentive, organized, and eager to make a positive difference. I have a background as an NAR, though I have not endeavored to renew my licenses as it requires a return to schooling. It was rewarding and I truly enjoyed this period in my late twenties and early thirties prior to my accounting career. I worked in both brain trauma and geriatric nursing long term care facilities. $22.00 for pet. Fees can be negotiable based on responsibility involved. Lighter workload = less $. Or shorter commute = less $. :)

Jessica $35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Arlington, WA

Hello Families, My name is Jessica, and I am a dedicated and highly experienced childcare professional with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for infants and young children. Supporting children during their earliest and most important developmental years is truly my passion, and I take great pride in providing attentive, nurturing, and dependable care for the families I work with. With a strong background in child development and early childhood education, I have worked in a variety of childcare settings including private nanny positions, nanny shares, and early childhood education programs. My experience with infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children has given me a deep understanding of developmental milestones and the importance of creating a supportive, enriching environment where children feel safe, confident, and loved. I strive to create a calm, engaging atmosphere where children can learn and grow through play, exploration, and meaningful interaction. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities that encourage curiosity, creativity, and independence while supporting each child’s individual development. Whether it’s reading together, sensory play, outdoor exploration, or creative activities, I love helping little ones discover the world around them. Families often describe me as patient, calm, reliable, and deeply attentive to the emotional and developmental needs of children. I value open communication and strong partnerships with parents, believing that consistency and trust between caregiver and family are key to a child’s well-being. My goal is always to provide exceptional care so that parents can feel confident knowing their child is safe, nurtured, and thriving. I would love the opportunity to connect with your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Warmly,
Miss Jessica

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
