Hi there! My name is Halie and I have been babysitting for about 15 years now and have been working in childcare for 8 years. I absolutely love work with kids, getting to know them and their needs as well as getting the chance to help out families who need it. I also have been pet/ house sitting for many years as well and love all kinds of pets! I have extensive experience with infants ages 3 months up to elementary school aged children!
Hello, I’m Salina , and I’m grateful for the opportunity to connect with families seeking a caring, dependable, and attentive caregiver. As a psychology graduate currently working as a Case Manager in Children’s Crisis Outreach, I support children and families through challenging moments with patience, empathy, and structure—skills that deeply inform how I show up in caregiving roles. My professional background has strengthened my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and the importance of creating environments where children feel safe, supported, and understood. Alongside my formal training, I’ve built years of hands-on experience caring for children in various settings, allowing me to adapt to different ages, personalities, and family dynamics with ease. What continues to motivate me is the privilege of helping children feel secure while encouraging curiosity, growth, and confidence. I prioritize clear communication, consistency, and age-appropriate engagement, and I’m intentional about creating calm, enriching spaces—whether through creative activities, routine-building, or simply being a steady presence. I would love the opportunity to support your family and contribute positively to your child’s well-being. I’m happy to connect via FaceTime or meet for coffee to discuss your family’s needs and how my experience may be a good fit. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to learning more about your family and exploring how I can best support you. Warmly, Salina
My background includes supporting families with children on consistent routines, balancing the needs of multiple kids, and ensuring safe, engaging days filled with age‑appropriate activities. I’m confident in managing feedings, diaper changes, and maintaining sleep schedules while keeping play areas tidy. I also enjoy preparing healthy meals and supporting household routines, including washing bottles and baby dishes, so parents can relax and enjoy their weekends. Families I’ve worked with value my calm and caring presence, especially during busy moments when infants and toddlers need different kinds of attention at the same time. I’m also comfortable driving around Seattle for outings or errands if needed. I’d love to become a trusted partner in your children’s care and bring a joyful, nurturing energy to your home.
Parent of only child now in her 30s. Provider of preventive oral health services (dental sealants, teeth cleaning etc) to children at public elementary schools in Bellingham for 17 years. I have, over the years, been an owner of parrots, dogs, large and small, cats, chickens, a pig, a goat, a pigeon and a flock of chickens. Horse riding and grooming experience and lover of all animals. I’ve worked in a nursing home and have often cared for young children and babies.
Hello! Im available for babysitting week days after 5pm and weekends anytime! I can provide references. I also may be available for backup care as I receive my current schedule 30 days in advance.

I have done babysitting for multiple families in the Seattle area 🙂 -fully vaccinated -cpr and first aid certified -own transportation -non smoker

"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."
