Booked by 114 families in Indianola, WA

Hi there! I’ve worked with kids for more than 14 years and have cared for little ones of all ages, from newborns to teens, and have plenty of experience working with multiple kids at once. I love creating a space where kids feel safe and understood. I’m patient, calm, and genuinely enjoy meeting new families. Also always happy to help out with pets too if needed! A bit more about me: I’m originally from the east coast but have spent the last 6 years between California and Washington :) When I’m not babysitting, I work with children, teens, and families in a therapeutic setting as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist/Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate. I have been practicing for over 2 years and hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. My work in child and family therapy helps me connect especially well with kids who are sensitive, shy, or nervous about being away from their parents. Babysitting is something I’ve kept doing over the years simply because I love it and it gives me a chance to connect with kiddos outside of the therapy room! Scheduling: I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I’m available for date nights, evenings, weekends, and overnights, and sometimes during the weekdays. I also do my best to help out with last minute requests, so don’t hesitate to ask! If you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out. I’d love to set up a time to talk and see if I’m a good fit for your family! :)

“Leada was lovely! Super friendly, easy to communicate with and I would definitely hire her again. ”

Booked by 9 families in Indianola, WA

Hi! My name is Margareth. I’m a Spanish teacher and mathematics tutor with a true passion for working with children. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-age children, creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and have fun. I am currently working as a nanny for two wonderful babies, ages 6 and 7 months. I care for them Monday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, providing attentive and nurturing care throughout the day. My responsibilities include following their daily routines, preparing meals and bottles, supporting nap schedules, engaging them in age-appropriate activities, and creating a safe and stimulating environment for their development. I enjoy planning creative and educational activities such as arts and crafts, reading, dancing, singing, educational games, and outdoor play. My background in education allows me to support children’s learning and development while making everyday activities fun and meaningful. I am responsible, patient, reliable, and caring, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when their children are in someone else’s care. I always strive to provide attentive, compassionate, and dependable childcare. I am available for occasional babysitting in the evenings after my regular work hours, as well as on weekends. I also have references from previous families I have worked with and would be happy to provide them upon request. I am completely pet-friendly and happy to help with pets when needed. I look forward to meeting your family and providing your children with loving, dependable, and engaging care!

“Margareth was so kind and flexible. She was a delight to have over so we could have a night out and we intend to keep reaching out to her repeatedly. Would fully recommend! ”

Booked by 10 families in Indianola, WA

Hi! My name is Christine! I am a mental health counselor desiring to work part-time/per diem for nannying and babysitting. I currently live near Green Lake. I very much enjoy working with kids, exploring new places (especially outdoors!), playing games, crafting, and finding creative ways to have fun with kids. Most of my professional and volunteer experience has been working with kids, and I desire to continue to work with children in therapeutic settings in the future. I have worked in preschool and nannying settings for the past year and half, and prior have worked with children therapeutically in an inpatient psychiatric setting, day and overnight camps, and babysitting, mostly with infants through 12 year olds. In previous nannying and babysitting, I help with laundry, housekeeping, and meal and snack prep, and am open to doing that alongside child care as well. Personally, I enjoy being outdoors, hiking, decorating, cooking and baking, and spending time with friends. I very much appreciate you considering me to work with your family!

"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."
