Hi! My name is Monique, I’m 33 years old and originally from Brazil. I’ve been working with children since I was 16, giving me over 17 years of experience caring for kids of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I also have experience supporting children with special needs, including autism. I’m patient, reliable, organized, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can thrive. I have a degree in Business from Brazil and I’m currently studying Marketing at Bellevue College. In my free time, I love hiking, traveling, and spending time outdoors. I look forward to connecting with families and providing loving, dependable care for their children.
Hi, I’m Payton! I work in higher education and help coach the UW dance & cheer team. I have a deep passion for childhood development and learning, particularly the ways that daily actions contribute to this, as evident by both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in education. The way babysitting fits into this is so much fun. Some of my favorite things are getting outdoors, crafting, playing alongside children, and helping kids learn. I have babysat regularly over the past 7 years, but have been babysitting, tutoring, and teaching dance since high school.
I spent my freshmen and Sophomore year (2[removed]) at college working with preschool English language learners. From 2015 to 2018 I worked at Green Tree Early Education center in Downtown Seattle. After graduating from the University of Washington with a degree in Early Education, I went for a Masters in Computer Science from Northeastern University. During my corporate career, I worked EST which allowed me to be an afterschool nanny/manny starting during the pandemic. I have worked with 7 different families and my undergraduate education was focused on infants and toddlers. Most of my experience is in transitional care / mothers helper while the families are on a waitlist for childcare centers. However my most recent experience was as a nanny/manny for two boys with Autism Spectrum disorder. I have an outdated first aid and CPR certification but I am almost certain there has not been any significant changes since 2017. I am comfortable around pets
“My kids enjoy hanging out with Brian, he is professional and communicates promptly.”
My name is Miley and I have 9 years of experience working with children in a variety of different settings including traditional daycare, Montessori school, nannying, residential, and after school care settings. I have experience with all age groups aged 0-17, however most of my experience has been with young children ages 0-3. I graduated in December 2025 from Portland State with a bachelors degree in psychology, and am currently attending graduate school at the University of Washington for applied child and adolescent psychology. Right now I’m mostly looking for date night type of gigs while I’m in grad school.

"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."
