$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Bothell, WA
Hi! I'm Babi, I've been an au pair twice in Europe, first in Poland and then in Spain, and now I live in Seattle. Caring for kids is something I truly love, and I want to keep doing it. In Poland and Spain I took care of 4, 7, 10 and 12, and each family had a different routine. I learned to adapt quickly, and keep the kids safe and happy. I like having a routine, but I also like to go with the flow and let the kids choose what to play sometimes. My favorite activities are arts and crafts, games, story time, and outdoor play. I love being outside with kids, rain or shine! I'm also comfortable driving kids to activities. I fluent in Italian and Portuguese, and I also speak English and Spanish. I'd love to share a few words in other languages with your kids in a fun and natural way. A little more about me: I'm responsible, punctual, and patient, and I believe open communication avoids misunderstandings. I'd love to meet your family and make your days a little easier!
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Barbara is AMAZING! BOOK HER! ❤️ Barbara was absolutely incredible! Kind, caring, dependable, and everything you could hope for in a babysitter! As a mom, nothing matters more than knowing your children are in good hands, and Barbara gave me that peace of mind. She’s a true gem, and I would book her again in a heartbeat! If Barbara is available, don’t hesitate to BOOK HER! You won’t regret it! We absolutely loved her! ❤️🌟”
