My friends call me Jodi. I love kids of all ages and believe they are unique and special, everyone with something to offer. I raised three kids myself and our house was the neighborhood hub. My three grandkids are teens now, who I'm very close to. I manage an 80-unit apartment building in Shoreline and live onsite. I love music and reading, including kid stuff, all ages. I don't jump rope anymore, but I can do a mean cat's cradle and anyone who loves to color, I can sit with for hours. I'm all for trips to the park, beach, reading books (out loud or listening to someone practice), nature walks; I'll run into the kiddie pool for a rescue but not willing to swim with the kids. I'm into nutrition but am not militant about yours; willing to cook basic meals but not interested in being a master chef. I do a lot of driving and am accident-free. I don't mind pets (I have a 6-pound chihuahua mix, Penny Lane, who was 4 years old in Dec 2023). Light chores like laundry, dishes etc, but kids are my priority. I look after your kids when you're not there; I don't babysit for WFH parents or someone who wants to watch a movie in another room.
“Over five years ago, I found Jodi (Margo) on Urbansitter. After interviewing her I knew she was a kindred spirit. She has worked steadily for our family helping us with after school care, pick up, and date nights. The kids truly love her and she is the most reliable caregiver I have ever known.”
Hi! I'm Kimberly and currently live in Seattle. I have worked with kids for over 17 years and absolutely love it. I have been a babysitter, nanny, lead summer camp teacher, and a household manager. I have experience with all ages and am extremely reliable. I’m happy to also help with household tasks.
Hello! My name is Maria, I currently work as a teacher assistant for Renton School District. This year, I’m working with kindergarten students! Additionally I have a year of experience in a high school setting. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me :)
Hello! I recently graduated from the University of Hartford with a BFA. I have 5+ years of experience working with children of all ages. However, I have worked primarily with preschool and early elementary aged children. I worked at a children's museum in the greater Seattle area as a lead teacher for preschool aged children from 2[removed]. I am CPR/AED certified and continue to renew my certification every 2 years. I currently teach ballet in the Seattle area to both children and adults! I have been babysitting for about 6 years (5 on UrbanSitter!) and love meeting and getting to know all different types of kids! I encourage all kids to be creative, active, and to explore through various activities. I look forward to hearing from you!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
Laura F., mom of two
