Anairis $26 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Kent, WA

Hello my name is Anairis but you can call me Ana :). I am a full time nursing student with 2 years nursing assistant experience with older adults. Working with older adults has been a joy, I love building strong connections and being a reliable person for them. I’m able to assist with activities of daily living. I occasionally babysit my nieces and nephews whose ages range from 10 months- 10years. I’m currently a babysitter for a family, taking care of a 2,5, and 8 year old. I hope to work in pediatrics because children are curious and fun to be around. I’d be happy to tutor as well. I can get creative with dancing, story telling, cooking and crafts. I have 1 dog who is 9 years old but I love all pets! I am BLS/CPR certified, first aid certified, and nursing assistant certified. I have a driver license and car. I love interacting with people of all ages and pets!

Bahareh $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bahar, and I’m currently working as a teacher assistant. I have over seven years of experience teaching in schools, working with children from ages 3 to 15. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education and an HCA (Home Care Aide) certification. I truly love spending time with children — playing, teaching, and helping them learn and grow. I understand their emotions and behaviors well and always aim to create a warm, supportive, and fun environment. In addition to child care, I also have experience in senior care, providing companionship, cooking, and driving. I enjoy caring for seniors because it gives me a chance to make their days easier, more comfortable, and filled with kindness. I’m also an animal lover and a strong supporter of animal welfare. While I feel very comfortable caring for cats, puppies, and small dogs, I’m not as comfortable with large dogs due to a past experience.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Kent, WA

Hi! I'm Janet, a dependable, energetic caregiver who loves helping families. As a working mom of two amazing humans (14 and 11), I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust. I believe raising kids takes a village, and I strive to be a safe, reliable, and nurturing part of yours. I currently work for Mary Bridge Therapies at MultiCare and bring over 20 years of CPR and First Aid training, along with nearly 22 years in the dental field. My healthcare background has taught me patience, compassion, attention to detail, and how to build genuine, trusting relationships with families. I'm also a huge animal lover! I have two cats, Pumpkin and Dewey, and I love both cats and dogs. Whether it's story time, homework help, outdoor play, or caring for your pets, I'm happy to jump in. I'm currently earning my Bachelor's degree in Data Science at Arizona State University while learning Tagalog and balancing life as a mom. I joined UrbanSitter because I enjoy spending time with children and pets and wanted to do more meaningful work while pursuing my degree. I'm bubbly, outgoing, dependable, and love connecting with people. I'd be honored to care for your family and provide a fun, safe, and positive environment for your children and pets.

Clara María $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Clara. Taking care of children has always come naturally to me. I helped raise my grandson from the day he was born until now, he’s seven, and being part of his life has taught me so much about patience, creativity, and how every stage brings something special. I’ve also cared for newborns and toddlers, giving them lots of attention, helping them start talking, and teaching simple Spanish words through play, songs, and stories. I love seeing how quickly they pick things up when learning feels fun. Cooking is one of my favorite ways to show care. I enjoy making healthy, homemade meals with Latin American flavor, rice, soups, arepas, and sweet plantains that kids usually love. Families tell me I bring calm energy and warmth into their homes. I believe children grow best when they feel loved, safe, and understood.

"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."
