Throughout my high school years, I babysat regularly for families around my community! I have experience with babies, toddlers, and elementary school age children. Additionally, I’ve worked with children in professional settings. I worked at Pump It Up, Arena Sports as a soccer coach, and coached cheerleading at a local middle school! I am enthusiastic and positive and love getting to know children and their families!

$28 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Momona. I am a recent graduate from the University of Washington studied Human Centered Design adn Engineering! Some of my hobbies are hiking, swimming, and biking. I love to spend my days enjoying the outdoors with friends or family. I would describe myself to be extroverted, patient, and communicative.
“Momona is truly heaven sent, and I don't say that lightly. As a mom of three little ones ages 5, 3, and 2 finding someone I fully trust to care for them has always felt nearly impossible. Thankfully, Momona came along. She is not only incredibly kind and attentive, but she intuitively understands how to care for each of my children in ways that suit their unique personalities and needs. She blends right into the flow of our days: helping my 5-year-old with early learning activities, guiding my imaginative 3-year-old through play, and keeping up with my energetic 2-year-old with endless patience. My kids absolutely love her, they get excited when they know she's coming and talk about her long after she has left. Most importantly, Momona is someone I truly trust. When I leave the house, I do so with complete peace of mind knowing that my children are safe, cared for, and happy in her presence. That kind of trust is priceless. She’s dependable, communicates clearly, and always goes the extra mile. Momona has been a blessing to our home, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for warm, capable, and loving childcare.”

Booked by 1 family in Kenmore, WA
Hello, my name is Chloe! I grew up in Eugene, Oregon, and recently moved to Seattle after earning my bachelor's degree in Child Development and Family Sciences and a post-baccalaureate in Communication Disorders and Sciences. I am currently pursuing a career in speech-language pathology because I am passionate about supporting children's growth, development, and communication. Working with children has always been the most rewarding part of my life. I currently work with toddlers at a Montessori daycare and have experience working in preschool and K-5 classrooms, including student teaching. I'm patient, dependable, and love incorporating art, imaginative play, and hands-on activities into my work.
