Booked by 2 families in Kirkland, WA

i have been working with kids for over 10 years, working with all different ages from 6 weeks old to teens! I was a nanny for years, including being an au pair twice. I have created preschool - style curriculum, worked with families who limit screen time, and adore playing pretend! I have also been a teaching artist in children's theater and a camp coach for circus skills. I love comedy, clowning, storytelling, the outdoors, exercise, and doing crafts. I am an advocate for autistic children and kids with ADHD. I have worked with so many neurodivergent kids, have taught neurodivergent-forward improv classes and I have co-created and facilitate a workshop for educators on how to create a neurodivergent-friendly classroom.

“Karly made sure to ask questions and understand how to best care for our kid! She got him to bed and made sure he was entertained while we got to have dinner outside the house. Would definitely recommend her and already have her looking after our child on Friday!”

Hi, I’m Fatima! I’m an experienced and compassionate caregiver with a deep commitment to nurturing and supporting children’s growth and well-being. I’m skilled in creating a safe, engaging environment with activities that encourage positive behavior and learning. As a reliable driver, I’m dedicated to ensuring children’s safety during travel to school, activities, and playdates. I’m passionate about building trust-based, positive relationships with both children and families. I worked as an au pair with Cultural Care Agency for 2 years, where I gained valuable hands-on experience in childcare and cultural exchange. I’m also multilingual, with fluency in Italian, Arabic, Moroccan, and Spanish, which helps me connect with diverse families and foster a deeper cultural understanding.

“Fatima was wonderful with our daughter. She was reliable, kind, attentive, and made us feel very comfortable leaving our little one in her care. She was great about playing with her, reading to her, helping with meals, and following our routine and preferences. Communication was also excellent throughout. We had a great experience with her and would absolutely use her services 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."
