Laura 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Looking for a family to work with Hello seattle families. I’m Laura from Colombia, I was an aupair but now a I’m a nanny, I have 6 years of experience with babies (from 6 to 10 months) and kids (from 2 to 7 year old) I have my driver license and my own car. I’m happy to provide you references and more information I’m looking for some extra hours happy to provide my resume.

“Laura has been a nanny for our two children (a 5-year old girl and a 22-month old boy) for over a year. Laura has predominantly helped our family with the morning duties related to both of our children (helping them to wake up, feeding them breakfast, getting them cleaned/dressed for the day, preparing snacks/lunch and driving our daughter to pre-school). She is an extremely reliable caretaker for our children, making safety and boundaries a priority while keeping it fun for each of them. The kids each love her and looking forward to their time with her every day. Laura is great at giving each kid age and developmentally-approritate activities to enjoy. And she is extremely supportive of the childrens' emotional needs. Laura does a great job of balancing each child's hectic morning schedule and tasks, is reliable/on-time, communicative with us and adaptable when we have new or adjusted requests/schedules. We would recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, responsible caretaker for their child or children.”

Maryam $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maryam and I have been working with kids for the last 7 years. Childcare is something that I care so much about and put my whole heart into. My previous jobs have been an Education Director at the Boys and Girls Club, a youth development professional for before and after school care, an educator, a tutor, and a swim instructor. I'm also certified in First Aid and CPR, fully vaccinated, and passionate about making sure that all of the kids I work with are cared for and happy :) As the middle child of six siblings, l've grown up knowing how important family is, and my natural warmth and responsibility shine through in everything I do. I'm currently pursuing my college education, mostly online, which helps me have a more flexible schedule. So! If you're looking for a babysitter who's fun, friendly, empathetic, dependable, and experienced, then l'd love to meet you and your kiddos!

Maria Joyce $30 per hour for 1 child

Hey! I am Joyce and am 34 years old originally from Brazil. Currently, I work as a Mental Health Therapist in a school based program (elementary school). I have a strong background in childcare and child development. In Brazil, I spent two years working at a bilingual school with children aged 3 to 24 months. I also worked as an au pair for two years, caring for children from 3 months to kindergarten age. Additionally, I have experience in a clinical setting, providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy for children on the autism spectrum, ranging from 2 to 10 years old. Currently, I provide mental health services to children in elementary schools. Working with children is my passion—I love seeing them grow, develop, and thrive. I am currently looking for occasional opportunities as a nanny. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, especially hiking, visiting parks. I also love reading. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I look forward to meeting you! Joyce

Booked by 8 families in Edmonds, WA

Hello families! My name is Noora, and I am a new graduate Registered Nurse with almost two years of experience working in a licensed home childcare setting and 3 years on Care. com. Working with children has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I love creating a safe and fun environment where kids can comfortably learn, and play. My approach to childcare is creative and individualized. Every child is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personalities, interests, and what helps them thrive. I love finding fun and engaging activities that match each child's unique needs. I do not smoke, have reliable transportation and CPR verified. I am comfortable with pets but unfortunately allergic to cats. As the oldest sibling in my family, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I value open communication and building trusting relationships with both children and parents. I'd describe my personality as caring, creative, and understanding. In my spare time, I enjoy painting, going to the beach, and spending time with family and friends. Looking forward to be apart of your child's care!
