Hello my name is Haely I'm a dental assistant offering child care & household services. I'm 21 years old and have 10+ years of experience caring for children from ages newborn to kids. I’m attentive to children’s needs, enjoy creating fun and engaging activities, and understand the importance of safety, routines, and clear communication. I’m responsible, organized, and happy to help with meals, light household tasks, homework, playtime, and bedtime routines. I treat every child with kindness and respect and strive to create a safe, positive environment where they can feel comfortable and have fun. I have my license and CPR Certification.
Welcome to my profile, I’m Kensy, a bilingual (English & Spanish) caregiver with years of hands-on experience supporting children from infancy through school age. I’ve worked as a nanny, daycare assistant, and currently serve as a paraeducator in a dual language elementary school. I’m confident caring for infants, including feeding, changing, naps, and soothing routines, and I truly enjoy helping little ones feel secure and loved. My approach is rooted in patience, creativity, and respect for each child’s individuality. I have experience incorporating Montessori-inspired methods that encourage independence, exploration, and meaningful play. Whether we’re doing arts and crafts, reading, or singing songs, I strive to make each day engaging and enriching. I’m also happy to support families with light household help and simple meal prep. If you’re looking for a dependable, nurturing, and experienced caregiver, I’d love to be a part of your child’s journey!
Hi there! I like to go by Andy. I am three years into a graduate program in School Psychology and I am well-versed in child development and education. I'm caring, patient, flexible, and I love working with kids! I have combined seven years of experience babysitting, tutoring, and working as a peer mentor for school-aged kids, including neurodivergent youth. I have also been counseling and teaching social-emotional lessons to students through my program. I am working full time at an elementary school this year, but looking for part time summer gigs with kids in the Tacoma area between June-Aug.
“Andy was fantastic with our daughter. We appreciated his attention to detail, great communication, and taking the extra effort to tidy up our hectic home. Our kid can’t wait for Andy to come back again.”

"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."
