Booked by 1 family in Kirkland, WA

Hello, I am a retired social worker, who has experience raising two adults and two grandchildren. Most recently, I was employed with a family with a 9 year old daughter. I worked three afternoons a week. I would pick her up at school in the unversity district , drive her home to Edmonds. Unless she had after school activity or tutoring, when home I would perpare a snack, look at her homework. At time she needed encouragement to complete her homework, I was able to help her with getting it done before dinner. One or two days a week she attended math toutering, one other days she would have swimming or gymantic. I would wait for her until her activity, and then return her home. Most evening i stays with her until 6 or 7 pm. If her parents were working late, I would prepare her dinner and hang out with her until her parents retiurned. If she was bored we would plays games or watch a parent approved show. At time I would be flexiable and stay later or changes schedules depends on the parents needs. vess she had an activiety she needed to attend. She had several extra the granddaughter full time nanny, from ages 6 months until she was 3. In addition to my life experiences with infants and children, part of my education, was courses in infant mental health and child development. I would like to share my calm, easygoing, nurturing grandmother personality with other families. After years of raising children, while living busy lives, I truly understand the need for a safe,secure and nurturing environment for children best development. In addition, I understand how difficult it can be to raise children, without help..I would love to meet your family and see if I can be an asset to your household I will look forward to hearing from you. Kathleen

Booked by 1 family in Kirkland, WA

I am a professional nanny living in Belltown but am willing to to travel around the metro area to care for children. During my days I am constantly taking kids to parks, gyms and community centers, play zones and walks: We read books, do art, sing songs and discover fun throngs kids love. I’ve taken children to the Ferris wheel, zoo, museums, the aquarium, Seattle City center and more. My background is completely different as I was in a high level stressful career and chose nannying and caregiving to change my life. I am CPR certified and first aid certified. In my past life I was a qualified OSHA trainer so I have a high focus on safety. During naps I am willing to cook, clean and handle pet needs. Would love to find a couple of families I could connect with and provide care nights and weekends! Enjoy all ages and will cater to their needs! Happy to connect with families traveling to Seattle that need childcare.

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Kirkland, WA

Hello everyone! I am Cansu🤸🏻‍♀️ I am currently a part time nanny here and a student at North Seattle Collage.I am from Turkey, and I am 24. I am offering childcare. I love spending time with children because I am still learning English, and they are great teachers. I have 3 nephew and 3 nieces, I used to play with them since I was 11 or so. I was an Au Pair with 1 and 3 years old awesome boys, and still, I am leaving, working with the same family. I worked at Space Camp Turkey as a counselor with 10-11 years old kids. Basically, my job involved teaching the science of sky, and it was my responsibility to make sure they ate and slept enough. In summary, take care the team whole weekend. I can also do light household like, emptying and filing the dishwasher, do children’s laundry, keep clean the kitchen. My childcare services involve; feed the kids, drive them somewhere, do bedtime, giving them a bath. I need to save up money for my Master Program because of that I am here! I don’t have any allergic, and I am comfortable with pets.

“Cansu is professional, punctual, reliable, and liked by our son. She’s handle our sons food allergies with responsibility. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

"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."
