Booked by 45 families in Kirkland, WA

Hello, I'm Fatuma, a student with a passion for working with children. In 2023, I worked as a camp aide teacher at the Pacific Science Center. Due to my religion, I cannot work with dogs; but willing to work with any other animals.I am capable of handling housework and running nearby errands. I've completed a first aid class, holding a valid certificate, and plan to retake the course for a refresher soon. Seeing the kids I work with grow and show their personality is the reason why I love being a babysitter/nanny. I enjoy reading, cooking and baking, going to the park, watching movies, going out to have fun, etc.

Booked by 12 families in Kirkland, WA

Hi! I’m Vera. I’m currently studying for my bachelor’s degree in Accounting and have been caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and older children through children’s camps, helping family members and day care. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, so safety is always my top priority. I love creating fun, engaging activities that keep kids learning whether we’re painting, baking, riding bikes or scooters, visiting the skate park, practicing piano, guitar, or working through homework together. Along with childcare, I also offer household assistance, including meal prep, cooking, laundry, organizing, light housekeeping, errands, and transportation to and from school or activities. I’m comfortable with pets too.

“Vera was wonderful with our 3 kids, 5, 7, and 8, they had so much fun, were so engaged, and she was so helpful. Looking forward to having her back!”

$38 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 114 families in Kirkland, WA

Hi there! I’ve worked with kids for more than 14 years and have cared for little ones of all ages, from newborns to teens, and have plenty of experience working with multiple kids at once. I love creating a space where kids feel safe and understood. I’m patient, calm, and genuinely enjoy meeting new families. Also always happy to help out with pets too if needed! A bit more about me: I’m originally from the east coast but have spent the last 6 years between California and Washington :) When I’m not babysitting, I work with children, teens, and families in a therapeutic setting as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist/Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate. I have been practicing for over 2 years and hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. My work in child and family therapy helps me connect especially well with kids who are sensitive, shy, or nervous about being away from their parents. Babysitting is something I’ve kept doing over the years simply because I love it and it gives me a chance to connect with kiddos outside of the therapy room! Scheduling: I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I’m available for date nights, evenings, weekends, and overnights, and sometimes during the weekdays. I also do my best to help out with last minute requests, so don’t hesitate to ask! If you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out. I’d love to set up a time to talk and see if I’m a good fit for your family! :)

“Leada was lovely! Super friendly, easy to communicate with and I would definitely hire 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."
