Jo Yee $35 per hour for 1 child
My background includes supporting families with children on consistent routines, balancing the needs of multiple kids, and ensuring safe, engaging days filled with age‑appropriate activities. I’m confident in managing feedings, diaper changes, and maintaining sleep schedules while keeping play areas tidy. I also enjoy preparing healthy meals and supporting household routines, including washing bottles and baby dishes, so parents can relax and enjoy their weekends. Families I’ve worked with value my calm and caring presence, especially during busy moments when infants and toddlers need different kinds of attention at the same time. I’m also comfortable driving around Seattle for outings or errands if needed. I’d love to become a trusted partner in your children’s care and bring a joyful, nurturing energy to your home.
Alyssa $27 per hour for 1 child
Hi families! I am a middle school teacher (cooking-- yes, it exists!) with nearly twelve years in the classroom. Originally from the midwest, I spent many summers growing up working as a nanny, babysitting for neighbors, and eventually working in summer camps and a daycare for four years during college. I have always been in roles working with children of various ages, and my career in education has allowed me to continue fulfilling my passion. I teach my students how to cook, shop, and plan meals for themselves, in hopes of giving them confidence in the kitchen. I love what I do, even on the most chaotic days! You can expect me to drive myself to your home, arrive on time, interact and engage with your children, follow the directions you provide, and leave a clean house. My teacher "toolbox" allows me to adapt and create fun activities for us to do, related to the age and abilities of your child(ren). I love creating memories with your kids while you enjoy your time away, giving you peace of mind and the freedom to focus on yourself. I am happy to do what I can around the house to help support your family, as well as take care of any pets you may have. I have 3 dogs myself, and am comfortable with a variety of tasks necessary to keep your animals happy.

"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."
