Booked by 3 families in Spanaway, WA

I will be returning to the school system as a certified behavior technician in the fall. I believe in nurturing children’s growth and development through access to environment, community, and development of autonomy. I believe in creating a calm, engaging and creative atmosphere where children can explore and learn with support from a trusted adult. I would love to talk more to see if I am a good fit for your family!

Brandi connected so well with my boys, and I truly appreciate her help. She is very reliable and has wonderful communication with me, which is so reassuring.

Booked by 4 families in Spanaway, WA

Hello! My name is Agostina (Agos), I am from Argentina and I am an infant Qualified nanny (Mom as well). I’ve been working with different families taking care of toddlers and infants! I am really good managing the schedule (naps, playing time, food, outdoor activities, play dates, tummy time and more.) I also worked as an Au Pair for two years during 2018 and 2019, so I am pretty good following family rules, maintaining a good communication with the parents and prioritizing always what’s best for the kid/kids. Currently looking for occasional or part time opportunities around Tacoma and surrounding areas. Please feel free to ask me any questions and I am more than happy to give you references as well.

Agostina was great - she came in, immediately connected with my son, and got him down for his nap (no easy feat!)

I have extensive experience caring for children, families, and individuals in both professional and personal settings. I worked as a Supervisor at a daycare, where I was responsible for the safety, well-being, and development of children of different ages. I also have experience supporting families through my background in psychology, which has given me strong skills in communication, empathy, patience, and understanding individual needs. In addition, I have years of experience caring for older adults and family members, including helping with daily routines, providing companionship, and ensuring a safe and supportive environment. I am also comfortable caring for pets and understand the importance of consistency, responsibility, and attention to detail. My greatest strengths as a caregiver are my compassion, reliability, patience, and ability to remain calm under pressure. I am naturally nurturing, highly responsible, and genuinely enjoy helping others feel safe, respected, and cared for. I am attentive to both physical and emotional needs, and I take pride in creating positive, trusting relationships with the people I support. My combination of professional experience, life experience, strong work ethic, and caring personality makes me an excellent caregiver.

"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."
