Hello, my name is Marisol, I am a certified teacher from North Seattle College and I have my own daycare called Planeta Kids, which offers daytime service from 7 to 5 pm Monday through Friday, however I do not have openings right now. I offer childcare on special occasions, when parents need to go to an appointment, night jobs or any other situation after 5 pm and during the weekends, I offer this service in the comfort of my home, which has nice, safe and fun spaces for the little ones. I enjoy caring for newborns, babies and toddlers, I am a mother of three children ages 21, 19 and 15. My responsibilities include driving to and from school or home, extracurricular support, feeding them and any special requirements you may need. I speak Spanish and basic English.
My name is Cameo, and I am a devoted caregiver with extensive experience caring for children and pets. I have three children aged 3 to 11 years, which has deepened my understanding of child development and the importance of a nurturing environment. Additionally, I helped raise my little sister from the age of 16, further enhancing my caregiving skills. I genuinely love working with children and animals, fostering a compassionate and engaging atmosphere for everyone in my care. I prioritize creating a safe and fun environment while promoting growth and learning. I am looking for clients who would also be open to me bringing my 3-year-old with me to jobs, as I believe in fostering strong family bonds and can provide care that accommodates my child’s needs. I am patient, nurturing, and dedicated to making every caregiving experience enriching for the little ones and pets I look after.
I've been the neighborhood babysitter and a part time nanny most of my life. I have the most experience with toddlers through age six, but I've also worked with infants and tween twins. I'm down to earth, have years of experience, and strongly believe that it's our job to raise the best, kindest, and well rounded humans that we can. I have been with my current Nanny Family since Jan 2020 and have picked up the rare date night for friends and family. I am looking for more part time work starting in September, preferably 8-16 hours, 1-2 days a week. I have a car, am happy to do light housework, go on adventures with the kiddos, and help with homework after school. I'm energetic and outgoing, with a love of math, science, and the imagination. I am also enthusiastic about date night sitting, nanny fill ins, and more! I miss working with kids while mine are in school! I’m COVID vaxxed and conscious, I mask when I’m indoors in public spaces. If you are a COVID conscious family I’m happy to discuss my risk factors and test before caring for your kiddo(s).
“Kas is an amazing babysitter. My daughter is nonverbal autistic and has mild cerebral palsy. She is a very happy kid and Kas has always helped her to have fun and be engaged with the world around her and does not find her disabilities in anyway a detractor from my child having a wonderful experience, Kas is patient and kind and an absolutely wonderful human being. Kas is always prompt and reliable and does a good job of following schedules and any special things that are needed, Kas is always happy to help with. Whenever we can get her, Kas is our first choice for Sitter because of what a wonderful job she does with my three-year-old. If it were possible to recommend to Kas any higher, I would do so.”
I have about 5 years of childcare experience with children ranging from 5 months to 12 years old. I’ve worked as a babysitter/nanny and in a daycare setting, caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I enjoy doing crafts, sensory activities, and outdoor activities with children, while also helping with meals and daily routines. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and can communicate comfortably with children and families in either language. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have reliable transportation, and have also completed a Medical Assistant program, giving me additional training in safety and caregiving.
Hello, my name is Jessica. I am a mother to a beautiful 7 month old baby girl. I have 2 dogs and a turtle and love to garden, cook, and read. I have over 25 years experience caring for children of all ages, children with disabilities, animals and the elderly. Most recently I have cared for a 4 year old boy with OI (brittle bone disease) and have provided hospice care for both of my recently passed grandparents. I am trustworthy, caring, empathetic, fun and responsible!

"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."
