Hello, I'm Andrea, I'm from Colombia so I Spanish, I love kids, I love spend time with them reading, drawing, dancing, bedtime, singing, outdoor adventures and all that kind of fun activities. I have experience picking up children from school , taking them to extra classes, parks, libraries, playground. My goal is that the children learn a few Spanish words (if that's okay with the parents) I have experience with 0-12 years old kids (anywhere from diaper change, bottle feeding, Spanish classes etc.) I was working for 5 years with a family starting with a baby 5 months until 5 years! They don’t need a nanny anymore but they’re willing to give references. If you have any questions, need more information or need some referrals, please let me know.

Jeannie is very compassionate, kind, and thoughtful! She always gives full attention to any kiddo she is watching and engages in fun, creative play with them. I have full confidence in her care for children - they love her!

Hello! My name is Sara, I am 22 years old. I’ve spent the last year working with individuals experiencing homelessness. I love taking care of others and I am looking to babysit while I create my next career path. I have experience taking care of children as a daycare teacher assistant for over a year. My responsibilities have included engaging in fun activities, helping with homework, supervising down time, preparing breakfast and lunch. I have a 3 year old tabby named Oliver. I’m comfortable around pets and have experience cat sitting for friends and family. I am CPR certified, non-smoker, fully vaccinated, and have access to reliable transportation.

Booked by 1 family in Lynnwood, WA

Hello everyone! My name is Sarra, and I live in Greenwood, Seattle. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Public Health Global Health from the University of Washington (Go Huskies!). I’ve been working as a full-time community navigator. A significant part of my job involves interacting with families and kids to create fun activities and events. I am wanting to work as a babysitter a few times a week with families who need help after school, weekends or date night! I’m musically inclined and believe that music has the power to heal any wound. I’ve always loved children and was the most trusted family member to watch over my little cousins. I have experience working with toddlers, young children, and teenagers aged 3 to 17. I’ve also worked with children on the spectrum. In my experience, I engage children in activities they enjoy the most and provide them with ideas to explore. I go out of my way to find the best activities to keep them occupied, such as learning a new language (I’m multilingual and speak French and Arabic), writing, drawing, or painting. The activities can vary depending on the child’s interests and passions. Some children love reading sessions, while others prefer singing, coloring, and drawing with music on, or simply playing board games like puzzles and interactive Lego construction games! Exploring the outdoors is also a fun activity to do if interested! I can help with homework and tutoring in various subjects, including English, Math, STEM subjects, and many others. I’m also a great cook and make all sorts of sandwiches, meals, and quick snacks that your children will love! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send me a message. I’d be more than happy to answer them for you.
