Booked by 1 family in Lynnwood, WA

Hi! My name is Sydney. I have worked with children for nearly 8 years. A majority my experience has been working in at a daycare as a school age teacher. Much of that time was helping children with homework and also planning well rounded curriculum. Additionally, I worked as a Home Visitor for Head Start where I gained experience working with children from Birth to 3 years old. I now nanny full time for a 13 month old and have been working with her since she was 4 months old. I would love the opportunity to discuss my experience in more detail!

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lynnwood, WA

I am a 34 year old full time stay at home mom to a 15 month old little girl! She is quite active and loves to play with other kids. If you need sitting during M-F during the day then she will need to come with me! Open to sitting in your home or mine! During the evenings or on weekends, she will NOT be with me! I am currently a nanny twice weekly to a 2 year old little girl! Previously I have worked as a behavior specialist to special needs children for 4 years and worked as a substitute teacher. I have been babysitting for 20+ years and worked as a nanny for 3 months full time as well to two children aged 4 and an infant during that time. I am fully CPR certified. I am raising my daughter bilingual (English and Spanish) and happy to encourage this teaching as well if you like. I focus on hands on learning and playing. Singing, dancing, interactive toys like puzzles and blocks, writing skills, and more. Open to helping with whatever you need whether that is getting them ready for the day, running errands, light household chores, diaper changing and potty training, meal prepping, etc! I am also very comfortable with all types of pets and have a dog myself. I have a degree in neuroscience/human sciences.

Kye was excellent with my 6 mo anxiety ridden sweet baby. She came to give me a reprieve and let me get some tasks done. She was so gentle with him singing songs and interacting to calm him. Great communicator and on time. I am so impressed I immediately recommended her to my sister and another friend with a similarly aged baby. I feel confident in her and would recommend her to you, too.

TAMARA $18 per hour for 1 child

I am a caregiver by nature. Beyond being a parent, I have also provided afterschool care and I teach at a preschool part time. I love engaging kids in playful activities and going on adventures. I love crafts and games. I host kids in my outdoor play area as well. I hope to serve as many people as I can. I think it is imperative that kids get a chance to play with others in order to learn crucial skills for their future. I would like the opportunity to share time exploring and creating fun memories while learning new skills with your child. I am a fan of the Reggio Emilia approach to learning and will follow the child's interests. Feel free to contact me with any questions- Tamara

"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."
