Booked by 1 family in Kent, WA

Hi! I'm Shylene. With a deep passion for childcare and extensive experience, I’ve had the privilege of working at KinderCare and Right At School, where I created safe, nurturing spaces for children ages 5-12. As a Program Manager, I developed engaging activities, supported homework time, and prepared snacks with careful attention to dietary needs. I’m highly skilled in meeting children’s individual needs, including managing allergies, and keeping accurate records. Beyond these roles, I’ve also enjoyed babysitting for children ages 0-4, where I provide loving care by feeding, bathing, and building strong emotional connections. Since a kid I was always told I had a motherly nature. Aside from babysitting I worked as a Teaching Fellow, and worked closely with K-1st graders, fostering their learning while maintaining open and clear communication with families. My experiences ensure I can bring dependable, compassionate, and tailored care to your family.

Hi - My name is Pelumi and I'm currently a medical student. I am offering child care and some household services.

Husneya $35 per hour for 1 child

As the oldest daughter in a family of seven, caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. I helped raise my younger siblings, who are now between the ages of 11 and 14, which gave me years of hands-on childcare experience from a young age. I have also worked with children in a school in Alberta and currently work with Safe Space Childcare Services, where I care for children of all ages. These experiences have taught me how to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment while meeting each child’s individual needs. I am patient, nurturing, reliable, and genuinely love spending time with kids. Whether we’re playing games, helping with homework, reading stories, or enjoying creative activities, I always strive to make children feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. I also have a passion for cooking and enjoy preparing nutritious, homemade meals and snacks when needed. I look forward to supporting your family with dependable and compassionate care.

"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."
