Hi, my name is Kim. I’m a warm, kind-hearted, and caring person who loves spending time with children and sharing in their youthful, energetic spirit. I’m a reliable and responsible adult with good judgment and many years of experience caring for babies, toddlers, and young children. I currently care for several families on a regular basis during the week. I am currently looking to connect with one more family in the Bellevue or Newcastle area. I’m self-motivated, highly organized, and also a great cook — happy to help with light meal prep if needed. I value working with families who see their nanny as part of the family, and I’m looking for a long-term position where I can build lasting bonds with the children. I have an inquisitive mind, a love of learning, and a genuine desire to help out wherever needed around the home. I’m easygoing, dependable, and always eager to lend a hand.

“Kim took care of my mother. First time worked out well. Used translator app.”

Introduction for a Job Offer: Childcare My name is Natalia, I am 28 years old, a physiotherapist by profession, and I am from Colombia. I have four years of experience working in the pediatric ICU, which has allowed me to develop strong skills in caring for children, even in situations that require special sensitivity and professionalism. Additionally, as a physiotherapist, I understand the importance of exercise and physical activity for both children and older adults, enabling me to provide comprehensive care that promotes physical and emotional well-being. I am also qualified to offer support for specific care that older adults may require. Lastly, I have a valid driver’s license, which allows me to adapt to the job’s mobility needs. My commitment is to provide a safe, positive, and enriching environment for those under my care.

“Was wonderful with our 2 under 2. Our son warmed up to her quickly and was even sad when she had to leave. She even left a premade bottle for right after to left.”

Booked by 1 family in Kent, WA

I currently work at a daycare with ages from 4 months-3 years. I also have nannied with ages up to 5. I also have had experience with house sitting and dog watching with multiple dogs at a time.

“Amia was our first non-family babysitter, so we were a little anxious, but she made us feel at ease instantly. She immediately clicked with our daughter and was very tolerant of our crazy dog. Our daughter had a lot of fun and was sad to see her go. We will definitely be using her again!”

"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."
