Madison $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maddie, and I offer child care, pet care, senior care, and household support. I’m currently looking for occasional, one-off, or part-time work to supplement my income and support families who need a reliable extra set of hands. I grew up booked and busy as a babysitter and nanny, and caring for others has always come naturally to me. My experience includes driving to/from activities, organizing arts & crafts/fun learning experiences, tutoring/homework help, cooking meals, and keeping children engaged, safe, and happy. For 6 years I worked as a swim coach, coaching children ages 5 - 18 and introducing infants and toddlers (ages 1 - 4) to the pool. These experiences helped me develop strong skills in supervision, patience, communication, and adapting to different ages and personalities. Professionally, I’ve spent the last 10 years as an Executive Assistant to CEOs, where I honed my organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills. I’m proactive, calm under pressure, and intuitive about anticipating needs - skills that translate into caregiving and household support. I’m also an animal lover through and through. I grew up with dogs, lived with a cat after college, and have no allergies. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and giving pets lots of attention. Lastly, I was a caretaker for my grandmother for a short time - assisting with basic senior care including cooking, transportation to appointments, and companionship (I’m a great cribbage partner!). I’m dependable, respectful, and genuinely enjoy helping and supporting others. I was raised in a household where everyone pitched in, so I’m very comfortable with cooking, cleaning, errands, and general household help. Whether you need childcare, pet care, senior assistance, or help keeping things running smoothly, I’m happy to step in. I look forward to connecting!

Renn $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a (current) mental health therapist and experienced nanny looking for time-limited gigs (like vacations) or evening & weekend opportunities, including nannying/babysitting, house sitting, household management, travel nannying, pet sitting or other related tasks. I was a long-term nanny for families in the Seattle area from 2[removed] and 2018-2022. I also have experience with household management and organization/systems implementation to help households run smoothly, as well as ample experience with pet sitting. I have a 10 year old doodle myself who is the sweetest pup you’ll ever meet! I have also nannied for 3 kids for a week while their parents went on vacation, and we had a blast! I am a mental health therapist by day, with afternoons/evenings and weekends available. To be transparent, my long-distance partner and I are looking to relocate in the next year, and we want to save some extra funds to ease the move & extend time off together. I could add more therapy clients, however, I quite enjoy nannying (and other related jobs) and it would be a lovely change of pace. If you’re looking for a long-term person, I won’t be the best fit. But if you need someone to watch your pets on vacation, household organizing, weekend babysitting or vacation coverage, I am great at what I do and will provide a fun, safe, and interactive experience for anyone in my care.

Lily $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I would say that I'm a dependable and caring caregiver with 6 years of nanny experience along with 2 years working in a daycare setting. I've cared for children of various ages, especially infants and toddlers, and I'm very comfortable with feeding routines, diaper changes, nap schedules, and creating a safe, nurturing environment. My daycare experience has also helped me develop strong skills in managing multiple children, staying organized, and keeping kids engaged through age-appropriate activities. I'm patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building positive connections with the families I work with. I understand how important trust and communication are, and I always aim to provide reliable, consistent care that gives parents peace of mind. I'd love the opportunity to connect and see if I'd be a good fit for your family!

Booked by 1 family in Medina, WA

Hi, my name is Reese! I'm a caring and responsible babysitter who enjoys spending time with kids of all ages. I have plenty of childcare experience and always make sure children are safe, engaged, and having fun. Whether it's playing games, going on walks, reading books, or helping with routines, I’m very attentive and patient. Recently, I worked for a family with 1 infant and 1 toddler. Some of our favorite things to do were going on walks to the playground and library. In addition to babysitting, I would consider myself an active person who enjoys working out, hiking, and horseback riding. I would describe myself as friendly, dependable, respectful, and I always strive to create a positive environment for the families I work with. I recently graduated from college with a bachelors degree and I plan to pursue a career as a paralegal in the future.

Reese was a great babysitter for our infant son! We would happily work with her again and recommend her for other families. She was very professional, timely, and responded quickly to messages. She took care of our little one while we were out for an evening. She played with him, fed him dinner, and put him through the bed time routine.
