Evie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Evie and I'm currently a sophomore at Western Washington University studying Biochemistry. I am offering child care, pet sitting, and household services. I love babysitting and pet sitting for friends, and I have further experience through volunteer work with the Girl Scouts of Western Washington and Elevate Robotics Camp. My experience is focused towards toddlers and kids rather than newborns and infants. My responsibilities included tutoring, crafts, organization and management. I can cook, clean, and run errands. I can work with families with cats and dogs, and would be happy to work with more exotic pets if given care instructions.

Yu $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, families! Caring for children has been both my calling and my joy. Over the past four years I've supported little ones from newborns to age 6, with a special knack for energetic toddlers. For two and a half of those years I worked in a Montessori school, guiding children with child-led learning and developmental milestones. I hold a bachelor's degree that included Early Childhood Development coursework, l. Parents describe me as patient, upbeat, and quick to adapt to each household's routines and communication style. I love sparking curiosity through outdoor play, sports, and hands-on educational games. I'm happy to manage school pick-ups, carpools, and swim supervision, and I am fully comfortable focusing on a single child's needs. As a fluent English- and Chinese-speaker, I enjoy introducing simple words and songs from both languages. Watching children gain confidence as they explore their world is immensely rewarding, and I would be honored to support your family's journey.

Yelena $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Carnation, WA

Hello. My name is Helen. I have a teaching degree in Early Education, as well as in Multimedia and Graphic Design. I knew that I wanted to be a teacher since I turned 10, and never regretted my choice. I have been working (and currently am) as preschool teacher for more than 13 years. I also have background in Montessori teaching. My hobbies include reading, music, drawing, arts and crafts. I always treat children as little adults, with respect, trust, compassion and love. I always play with children, not just watch them or supervise. I am fluent in English, as well as in Russian. I value honesty, kindness, transparency, flexibility, integrity, curiosity, sense of humor in others and in myself. Please, do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. Thank you for your consideration.

"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."
