Keira $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Keira. I’m a dependable, patient, and caring babysitter with real-life childcare experience as a mom to my four-year-old daughter. Being a parent has taught me a lot about patience, safety, and creating a fun and nurturing environment for kids. I truly enjoy spending time with children and keeping them engaged with activities like arts and crafts, reading, playing games, going on walks, or visiting the playground. I also understand the importance of quieter time for things like movies, books, or relaxing activities. I know how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their child, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is always to make sure children feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their parents are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy helping families. I would love the opportunity to care for your child and support your family

Esmé 3 reviews
$40 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Kirkland, WA

Hi! I’m Esmé, a certified postpartum and infant care doula with over ten years of experience in childcare, including four years working in a daycare setting. Growing up in a large family with more than 40 cousins, I was often surrounded by babies and young children, an environment that provided the foundation for both my confidence and knowledge on caring for little ones. Through years of hands-on experience with countless families, I’ve gained a wide range of practical knowledge, tips, and tools to support parents and kids. Being constantly immersed in communities of parents and children has shown me how essential strong, compassionate support is when raising a child. I would love to become part of your support system and to care for you and your family every step of the way. I offer both daytime and overnight support to best meet your family’s needs.

Ainsley $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a student at Cal Poly Slo with previous childcare experience. I worked as a childcare attendant & teacher at Pro Club Bellevue, and am CPR & first aid certified. I love working with children and finding fun ways to spend a day with them. I love to get creative! Creating an enjoyable day for the kids is just as fun for me. From my time at Pro Club I am an excellent multitasker - watching 15 kids at once is no joke. I am happy to do other household errands and chores, and I am available any time. In a job, I am looking for something around 20-30 hours a week and for the summer.

"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."
