Hello my name is Mayra I’m a student at Seattle pacific university majoring in business administration marketing ,I speak English and Spanish.My experience no with kids has been through a company named jovie I babysit all ages from 7months to teenagers,all through out the city,I also gained a very valuable skills through my volunteering hours during my sophomore and junior year of high school at meadow crest learning center where i. gained ,community,responsibility, learned what it was like to work in a environment with multiple kids needing assistance.My goal as a caregiver is to provide a fun and safe environment where kids feel comfortable and are thriving.

Mayra stepped in as a backup care nanny for our 20-month-old son, and we couldn’t have been happier. She kept him engaged and entertained the entire time — he absolutely loved spending time with her. On top of that, Mayra was easy to schedule with and a pleasure to work with. We would gladly book her again and highly recommend her to other families!

Hi. My name is Itu. I’m a very dependable babysitter, who knows how to provide exceptional care for your children. I have 8 years experience with children of all ages starting from infants to teenagers. I’m well-versed in creating a fun, nurturing environment that kids love and parents trust. I’m CPR and First Aid Certified. And also as all families are unique, I don’t really have a specific way of how I do things, you tell me what you need and I do just that, adding a little bit where I think it’s needed but otherwise I tailor my approach to fit your child’s needs and your household routines.. I’m dedicated to making babysitting time special for your children and stress-free for you. Thank you! Chat to you soon..

Nice to meet you families! My name is Melissa and I have been working as a caregiver for the last 8+ years. I truly enjoy the company of children and nurture their artistic side. A little bit more about me. I have a background on Architecture and Graphic Design. I love art & crafts, and doing these projects with kiddos is fun (except for the mess). I have a lot of experience with kids between 2-8y/o and experience with babies from 3 months-18 months. I’m excited to be part of your crew of back up childcare!!!

Melissa was great with our 10 month old he was very happy! They played and she helped him with nap time! Thank you Melissa!

Pet care only: I’ve lived with cats and dogs growing up so I love taking care of them. Currently working for a flexible company so my work hours are flexible.

Yadi was able to take care of my cat on short notice. It’s been nothing short of a great experience - Yadi is great at communicating and updating me to make sure I felt comfortable! My cat also seemed to really enjoy his time with her 😄

I'm a retired homemaker who has successfully raised three kids in this area. I live with my husband and 2 small dogs in Bellevue. We have three grandchildren under the age of 12, they live locally and we see them frequently! I love kids, people and pets and I like to help. I have many years experience as a parent, and have experience being a grandparent too. I can sit, tutor, play and cook. I enjoy running errands and I take direction well. Kids like me, and I'm good with babies too. In my spare time I enjoy reading, baking, board games, shopping, walking the dogs and babysitting.
