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

Hi! My name is Kelly. I have over 6 years of experience working with children, and I currently work full-time as a Marketing Director at a school. Since we're on summer break, I'm looking for an opportunity to earn some extra income. I've cared for children of all ages, with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers. As a native Spanish speaker, I would love the opportunity to introduce your little ones to a new language. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and keeping them engaged through fun indoor and outdoor activities. I also have a clean driving record and can provide excellent references. I look forward to connecting with you and your family! 😊🌟

“Definitely hire her again. She was on time and very sweet to our 13 months old boy. The whole family like her. ”

Hello! I recently moved back to Washington after 13 years of living in Utah and am working as a paraeducator in the Renton School District. I graduated with a BS in health education and promotion from Utah State University in December and am CPR/First Aid Certified. I have experience working in childcare facilities with infants, toddlers, and preschool students as well as experience in an elementary school in Utah as an educational support professional. I am passionate about childhood and health education and love to explore different ways of staying active both indoors and out. I have grown up caring for a range of pets and am a huge animal person!

Julisa $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Julisa, a senior at the University of Washington offering dependable child care, pet care, and light household support in the Seattle area. I’ve cared for children ages 6 months to early teens since I was 16, bringing a mix of energy, patience, and creativity to each job—whether it’s playtime, homework help, or school pickups. I have a safe, reliable car and am comfortable driving kids to activities, appointments, or wherever they need to go. I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve worked with reactive dogs and have hands-on experience with puppy training as well. I grew up with two cats and now have a dog named Orion, who’s back home in California with my family. Alongside child and pet care, I’m happy to help with light cooking, tidying up, errands, or anything else that keeps your home running smoothly.
