I've been the neighborhood babysitter and a part time nanny most of my life. I have the most experience with toddlers through age six, but I've also worked with infants and tween twins. I'm down to earth, have years of experience, and strongly believe that it's our job to raise the best, kindest, and well rounded humans that we can. I have been with my current Nanny Family since Jan 2020 and have picked up the rare date night for friends and family. I am looking for more part time work starting in September, preferably 8-16 hours, 1-2 days a week. I have a car, am happy to do light housework, go on adventures with the kiddos, and help with homework after school. I'm energetic and outgoing, with a love of math, science, and the imagination. I am also enthusiastic about date night sitting, nanny fill ins, and more! I miss working with kids while mine are in school! I’m COVID vaxxed and conscious, I mask when I’m indoors in public spaces. If you are a COVID conscious family I’m happy to discuss my risk factors and test before caring for your kiddo(s).
“Kas is an amazing babysitter. My daughter is nonverbal autistic and has mild cerebral palsy. She is a very happy kid and Kas has always helped her to have fun and be engaged with the world around her and does not find her disabilities in anyway a detractor from my child having a wonderful experience, Kas is patient and kind and an absolutely wonderful human being. Kas is always prompt and reliable and does a good job of following schedules and any special things that are needed, Kas is always happy to help with. Whenever we can get her, Kas is our first choice for Sitter because of what a wonderful job she does with my three-year-old. If it were possible to recommend to Kas any higher, I would do so.”

April $30 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I’m April and I’m an experienced pediatric RN here to help you find time to recharge while knowing your kiddos are safe, cared for, and having fun! I've worked with children from newborns to young adults as a pediatric and school nurse and babysitter. In addition, I've worked as a community RN supporting families during pregnancy and early childhood. I'm also a parent myself, so I know how much parents need time to themselves *and* how hard it is to trust anyone else with your kids. I'm certified in CPR/BLS and have extensive education in child development, allowing me to meet each child at their level. I prioritize communication and respect with both kids and parents, and I'm always happy to follow your lead. I’m also comfortable caring for pets and providing light housecleaning and meal prep.

Booked by 1 family in Newcastle, WA
I am a child care worker of many years and have extensive experience with ages birth to 11. Mostly I’m a preschool teacher but for a number of years I nannied after hours in exchange for partial rent for three different families. When my child was younger I nannied for an additional three families. I love working with young children, making up silly games with them and doing art experiences with them, and helping them feel competent in their every day tasks! Now my child is in high school and I am free to do some Friday/Saturday babysitting.
“Rebecca was very friendly, punctual, and a great human being to hang out with. She helped me organize a lot of my belongings that got shipped to me and break down boxes. I really appreciated her help to get my apartment in order! Thanks Rebecca :)”

"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."
