Hello! I'm a friendly and reliable multilingual babysitter and caregiver, fluent in both conversational French and Italian, with a strong background in early childhood education (12+ years). As a Montessori-trained Kindergarten teacher, I have a deep understanding of child development and a passion for fostering a nurturing and engaging environment for children to thrive in. I have experience caring for multiple children at a time (recently caring intermittently 6 children from one family with age ranging from 2years to 13 years) as well as toddlers and infants (from 5months). Also I have experience with neurodivergent children with special needs and have a preference to caring for them. I am a compassionate certified caregiver for Seniors, dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for seniors, specializing in memory care and comprehensive support for various senior-related needs. I am trustworthy, patient, and trained to provide compassionate assistance tailored to individual requirements. Let me help your loved ones live comfortably and with dignity. I am also certified in CPR for both adults and children through the Red Cross, so you can feel at ease knowing your loved ones are in safe hands. I am always happy to help with light housework and can run errands if needed, ensuring your household runs smoothly. Plus, I own a 2019 Honda Passport, making it easy for me to assist with transportation if required. My hobbies include, crocheting, needlework, puzzles and reading; I am also a strong swimmer (certified diver) and enjoy roller blading... With my diverse skills and caring nature, I'm excited to offer support in a way that feels both reassuring and convenient for your family! Looking forward to meeting you soon.... Best Wishes, O.

Hi, my name is Kelly. I’m 29 years old, and I’m a dual citizen of Mexico and the United States. I’m a caring, responsible, and family-oriented person who truly enjoys working with children. I would love the opportunity to provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where your children can learn, grow, and explore the world around them. I’m a professional nanny with over 9 years of experience in Seattle, providing exceptional care for children ranging from newborns to 12 years old. Throughout my experience, I have developed strong skills in creating fun and educational activities, supporting children’s routines, and building trusting relationships with both children and families. I’m also comfortable with family travel and have the flexibility to travel internationally due to my dual citizenship. Skills: • Early Childhood Education (ECE) • CPR Certified • Spanish native/fluent speaker • English intermediate level • Valid U.S. Driver’s License My passion for childcare started when I was younger, taking care of my little brothers and cousins in Mexico. Those experiences helped me discover how much I enjoy being around children and supporting their development. I believe every child deserves patience, attention, love, and encouragement to help them grow into happy and confident individuals. My goal is to make every day special for your children by creating a positive, safe, and fun environment where they feel loved and cared for. I want them to end each day with a smile and feel excited for the next adventure we share together. I would be happy to provide 3 or more excellent references upon request. If you would like to know more about me, please feel free to send me a message. I would love the opportunity to meet your family! Thank you so much!

“We cannot recommend Kelly highly enough! She has been an invaluable part of our family since our daughter was just 2 months old and stay with us for 2+ years. Transitioning back to work and leaving a young infant is never easy, but Kelly made us feel completely at ease from day one. She is incredibly energetic, cheerful, and brings a wonderful positive energy into our home every single day. It is clear that she truly cares about our daughter, treating her with the utmost care, attentiveness, and love. Our daughter absolutely adores her, and their days together are always filled with laughter and joy. Beyond being an exceptional caregiver for our child, Kelly has been a true pleasure to work with and a wonderful addition to our family dynamic. If you are looking for a nanny who is careful, genuinely loving, and dedicated, Kelly is the absolute best. We recommend her without hesitation!”

Hi, I’m Simnera! I’m a mom of two, my daughter is 5 and my son is 3. I love being around kids and I’m very comfortable caring for babies and young children. I also work at Seattle Children’s Hospital as a patient care technician, where I work with kids from infants to teenagers. Through my job I’ve completed different pediatric care trainings and certifications, including pediatric BLS. I’m comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, playing, and following the child’s regular routine. I’m patient, caring, and easygoing. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your kids, and I’ll always treat them with the same care I would want for my own.

"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."
