Booked by 5 families in Indianola, WA

Hi! I’m Isabel! I’m a caring, patient, and dependable babysitter with several years of childcare experience, from babies and toddlers to older kids I especially enjoy caring for little ones and I’m very comfortable with the routines that come with them, including bottles and feeding, diaper changes, naps, soothing, playtime and bedtime. I know how important consistency is with babies so I always do my best to follow the routines and preferences parents have established at home With older kids I enjoy keeping them engaged with games, crafts, outdoor activities, reading, or simply spending time doing the things they enjoy. I’m also comfortable preparing simple meals and snacks, helping with bath and bedtime routines and doing pick-ups and drop-offs when needed I’m attentive, calm, and affectionate and I genuinely enjoy building a connection with the kids I care for. I also value good communication with parents and want them to feel comfortable and confident while their little ones are with me I’m happy to help with light tidying related to the kids and I’m very comfortable around pets too I’d love to meet your family and see if I could be a good fit!

“Isabel did a great job taking care of our five year old daughter, who had a wonderful time. They played outside, baked, and talked. Isabel was punctual, communicative, and friendly. We hope to have her take care of our daughter in the future, and would highly recommend her to other parents. ”

Rent an Auntie! Remember when we all lived in the village or tribe and taking care of each other, our children and our elders was as easy as asking an Auntie to come over and help out? Most of us don’t. But not one to let that stop me, I have claimed my role as “Auntie” both personally and professionally. Do you need childcare? Pet care? Eldercare? I’m your Auntie! CHILDCARE Personally I have many nieces/nephews/extended family that I have helped raise in one way or another, which weaves into my professional experiences as a teacher. Both of which are some of the most fulfilling of my life. From my time as an early childhood educator through my years as teacher and director of a K-8 forest school, being gifted with the wonder and excitement of what it feels like to be a guide to these geniuses that were unfolding in their own unique ways, set me into my purpose. I love to water the flowers and watch them grow. And my training in the Woldorf approach, education in developmental psychology, and experience in Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) has given me plenty to water with! One of my super powers is inventing fun and creative projects and activities especially tailored to the needs and interests of the kids in my care. Is tutoring needed? Is there a lot of energy that needs an outlet? Outdoor activities? Plant ID hikes? A creative outlet? Painting? Sculpture? Board games? Teach cooking or just prepare meals? I’m your Auntie! Do you need someone who has experience with special needs children and those moving through the challenges of ASD? I’m your Auntie! Or someone who used to be a volunteer cuddler at Children’s Hospital to cuddle your little one? Change diapers? Clean messy high chair hijinks? I’m your Auntie! PET CARE Would you like someone whose mom was a veterinarian and has basic animal healthcare techniques and training? Someone who taught on a farm and adores all creatures? Someone who loves belly rubs and ear scritches? I’m your fur baby’s Auntie! ELDERCARE Does Grandfather want someone to listen to his stories? Would Grandmother like someone to cook her famous recipe for dinner? A puzzle to finish? Cards to play? A watercolor to paint? I’m your Auntie! Would you feel more secure with someone who is CPR/First Aid Certified? Who has handled multiple emergencies with both kids and pets? Call up your Auntie!

“Shannon is sooo great with our girls 6 and 4 and baby boy. Highly recommend! ”

"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."
