Hi Parents, I’m a nanny looking for a new family or possible nanny share in Seattle or eastside área (kirkland, Bothell, Woodinville, Redmond) As a mother of 5 (the youngest is 27y), I have a lot of experience with all ages. I’m looking to take care of infants now, but I’m open to chat about toddlers too. I’m from Brazil, I can speak Portuguese with your child so they will have the opportunity to be introduced early in a new language, if is that ok for you. I love to go outdoor for activities, walk, explore the nature on mini hikes and can be indoor doing crafts, playing and helping with their development. I am also available as a travel nanny. Rates start $30/h; 40 hours guaranteed per week; Paid major holidays; CPR trained; I can give you references. Please feel free to send me a message with all your questions. Thank you!

Booked by 6 families in Kirkland, WA

Hello! My name is Unyoung. I love fostering curiosity, compassion and playfulness. Integrity and trust are sacred to me. Food and great conversation delight me and creative sparks are ticklishly fun. Besides the enriching experience as a mother, which has been the most important, I also have worked in retail, residential leasing, quality control and the restaurant industry. I would love to share time with a curious child or be an engaging conversationalist with the elderly. I also am very thrilled at the prospect of cat/dog/house sitting. I am available for date nights and have weekend flexibility as well. I hope to hear from you soon to see if your needs and my offerings would be an awesome match!

“We were so lucky to find Unyoung for a last minute babysitting job with our toddler! She made him feel at ease and kept him engaged for hours. Can’t wait to work with her again!”

"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."
