Hi, My name is Alicia! I've been babysitting for 10 years now and it never feels like work to me because it's always fun! I've babysat kids in all different age groups, from 8 months to 10 years old. My favorite things to do while babysitting are going to the park, coloring, reading books, playing outside games, like tag. Pretty much anything to stay active and have fun.

Hi there! My name is Elizabeth and I am offering childcare and pet care services. I am available in the evening or weekends. I am a counselor and have a masters degree in social work from UW. I have 10+ years of experience taking care of children of all ages and abilities! I have experience working at a home daycare, as a full-time nanny, and as a cheer coach. I enjoy caring for infants, toddlers and young children. I enjoy being an aunt to 3 nephews (all under 6 years old). We do activities such as going to the park, arts and crafts, or working on developmental skills- especially for infants. I have 2 small dogs- an 8 year old and a 2 year old. I am okay with caring for most cats, but I have mild allergies to some cats (only those with a lot of fur).

Booked by 36 families in Medina, WA

I am energetic, friendly, easy-going yet reliable and responsible. Love kids of all ages & they tend to love me. I have current extensive experience caring for children 0-12Y. I add value by being medically trained in pediatrics, being bilingual (English/Russian), engaging kids in fun learning via play and helping around the house (time permitting).

Valerie was super flexible, helpful, and intuitive! I had a lot of people and kids to deal with, and she made it all easy.

Hello UrbanSitter Families! I'm not the greatest at introductions but I promise I'm far better in-person with families and kids. Combined, I have now over 15 years of experience working with families. In fact, there has not really been a time where I have ever stopped working with families! I have professionally managed events, conferences, and weddings for a good chunk of my career before transitioning to academic research and law. Outside of this platform, I work privately in law, with content management, and coach public speaking. I took a break from UrbanSitter for several years for grad schools. Now, I mostly use UrbanSitter to help with occasional date night, wedding, and events request. Would love to work with you and your family!

Booked by 39 families in Medina, WA

I have been a nanny for over 12 years and about 8 years ago I transitioned into the corporate world. I am missing all the silly times with my little people and would like some occasional jobs to keep me engaged and having fun! I have a ton of energy and can keep up with any child or large families. I love animals as well! I have had quite a few cooking jobs and I don't sit very well for too long. So, if a baby is sleeping... I am cleaning or prepping food :) My minimum is 4 hours of work, so if you come home early, I still get paid for 4 hours. Thank you.

Tiffany is extremely warm, energetic and professional and clearly very experienced! She is one of the first babysitters we've used as first-time parents and we felt at-ease almost right away.

"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."
