Hey there, I’m Julia – Ready to make your home life a little smoother. Hi, I’m 29 years old and have been working with kids since I was 16. I’ve cared for babies, toddlers, school-aged kids—you name it. I’m also a college student with a background in healthcare and a lot of experience helping families keep things running smoothly. I’ve worked in a woman's hospital, trained as an EMT (and worked in the field for two years), most recently spent three years as an Au Pair in the U.S., helping families manage everything from busy school mornings to bedtime routine - and even running errands that they don't have time time. Here’s what I can help with: - Morning routines, breakfast, and school prep. - Keeping the house clean and organized. - Grocery runs, errands, and laundry. - Meal prep and dinner help - Picking up kids, driving to activities, and evening wind-down I’m extroverted, dependable, and love getting kids engaged with creative games, crafts, and outdoor play. I also understand the importance of helping parents feel supported and stress-free. If you’re looking for someone who can jump in and make your home run a little smoother, I’d love to connect.

Booked by 101 families in Medina, WA

Hi, my name is Helen! I moved to Seattle after high school and completed my college career here. I've worked most of my life with children and I love it. I love how much character their personalities already have and the energy and joy they bring to the table. I've worked personally for families as well as done babysitting for events where childcare is provided; which has given me a chance to watch wide variety of ages. The imagination that children possess is something to behold, nothing is simply ever just a 'toy' but has a whole story to it. That's a little bit about me! I hope to meet you in person soon!
