Booked by 14 families in Seattle, WA

Hi! I am a proactive, joyful, and hands-on caregiver with over 9 years of experience working with children from 6 months to 15 years old. I like to think that I bring more than just childcare, I bring intention. My approach focuses on helping kids build independence, confidence, and self-esteem through routines, choices, and age-appropriate responsibility. I grew up as a scout, so I’ve been leading, mentoring, and engaging with children from a young age. I’m calm under pressure, firm yet kind when setting boundaries, and always thinking one step ahead. I believe in open communication with parents and love collaborating on what works best for each child’s needs and personality. I’m also happy to share my native Spanish and basic French with kids in fun, natural ways. I’m CPR and first-aid certified, fully vaccinated, and comfortable with pets. Happy to talk more with you!

“Leslie was fantastic! She was with us for a full week taking care of our 1 1/2 year old. He loved her. She had so many fun ideas of crafts and things to do together. They made cookies together even! She was great at asking questions and communicating with us. We would highly recommend working with Leslie!! ”

Booked by 35 families in Seattle, WA

Hello, I'm Sumeya, a student with a deep passion for working with children. My long-term goal is to become a pediatrician, and in the meantime, I am gaining hands-on experience as a caregiver. Last year, I worked with Amicable Healthcare as a full-time caregiver for two families and have also assisted children with disabilities. Through these experiences, including caring for infants, I've developed a genuine love for nurturing children in a safe, engaging environment. I am an energetic, physically active person with a strong interest in sports like soccer, basketball, and biking. Although I have a slight phobia of dogs, I’m actively working on overcoming it and I’m open to working in homes with dogs. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable with housework and running errands. I hold a valid first aid and CPR certification, ensuring I can respond appropriately in emergency situations. My love for children extends beyond basic care—I also enjoy teaching them creative activities like painting and engaging in outdoor adventures. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of children while creating a positive and nurturing environment.

"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."
