Mabel 2 reviews
$26 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old with ages 1 yr up to 12 years old. Additionally, I grew up in a big family taking care of my nieces and nephews since they were babies. I have a full time job as a behavior technician providing ABA therapy for kids with Autism and have worked in this field for the past 5 years with ages ranging from 2 years old to adulthood. I love babysitting and would love more opportunities to do so! Love engaging kiddos in crafts, homework, games, and fun activities.

“Mabel is such a caring and wonderful babysitter! She is so sweet and my 2 kids adore her. She is reliable and always on time and is flexible with her hours. She has great professional experience with kids and our children always look forward to spending time with her. I would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a dependable and experienced babysitter.”

Kaleen 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Port Orchard, WA

Hi, my name is Kaleen. I just relocated to Seattle from Florida. I am a mother of a 22 year-old son, a 17 year-old daughter, and my little guy is Jakob who is 5 1/2 years old. I share custody so there are plenty of opportunities for me to pick up shifts when I don't have him. With that being said, I don't have any certifications for childcare training. I have raised three amazing children. I am CPR certified in adults and children. I am a veteran, student, I am kind, patient, loving, dependable, honest, hardworking, and I can assure you that your children will be in great hands. I have been in the healthcare field for 25 years working in hospital settings, emergency settings, in-home caregiver settings, and everything pharmacy related. I have completed one year of nursing school, hoping to finish the last year and work with chemotherapy patients. As a single mom, I understand most people cannot afford $25+ an hour, I can't either, so I am willing to be flexible with payments and rates. I have an SUV, so I can run errands or take your kiddos out to wherever you might love to go! Or maybe some of mine and Jake's favorite places. Please don't hesitate to ask any and all questions.

“Kaleen is was very responsive from beginning to end which I appreciated. This was my first time leaving my 6 month old with a non-family member and I was STRESSED to be honest! She put me at ease and the results speak for themselves. My baby cries and cries when anyone but me holds him and by the time Kaleen was done he was smiling and content. She put in the work to get my son to relax which in turn helped me relax. She was punctual, and comfortable with my animals. Respectful of the home. I would recommend her and would feel confident having her watch my son again.”

Asmaa 1 review
$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Port Orchard, WA

Hello! My name is Asmaa, and I’m currently a student at the University of Washington. I’m a dedicated and energetic caregiver with over seven years of experience caring for children of all ages. I have experience babysitting and have worked in youth summer camps for four years. I also spent the past four years as a skateboarding coach, teaching and mentoring kids in a fun, safe, and engaging environment. I'm CPR certified, and safety is always my top priority—whether we're indoors doing crafts or outside enjoying the fresh air. I have experience cooking, doing light household chores, and helping with homework for elementary and some middle school kids. I love being outdoors, staying active, and helping kids grow through movement, play, and meaningful connection. I am able to create a safe, fun, and focused environment for children of all ages. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, and great at building trust with both kids and parents. If you’re looking for someone warm, experienced, and dependable, I’d love to support your family!
