Booked by 22 families in Sammamish, WA

I'm a retired homemaker who has successfully raised three kids in this area. I live with my husband and 2 small dogs in Bellevue. We have three grandchildren under the age of 12, they live locally and we see them frequently! I love kids, people and pets and I like to help. I have many years experience as a parent, and have experience being a grandparent too. I can sit, tutor, play and cook. I enjoy running errands and I take direction well. Kids like me, and I'm good with babies too. In my spare time I enjoy reading, baking, board games, shopping, walking the dogs and babysitting.

Dina was very professional and great with consoling my 3 week old newborn and spending time with my 3 year old. He really loved talking with her and was sad for her to go. It was so nice to have her help!

Booked by 2 families in Sammamish, WA

My name is Mary and I grew up originally in Sherwood, OR and I have nannied and babysat for multiple years for family and connections found through family/friends. I am currently in working part time and am looking to help families in my community with babysitting, running errands, nannying, chores, etc. to supplement student loans. I am a very upbeat person and I also believe in low screen time for kids especially under the age of 3. I love planning crafts, games, walks to the park, and any other activities mom and dad are on board for! I currently work part time as a Horticulturist and am looking for subsequent hours for Wednesdays-Sundays.

Mary is absolutely wonderful! She is so friendly and easy to talk to, not to mention great with my little one. So glad to have Mary taking care of my kiddo!

Booked by 8 families in Sammamish, WA

Hi! 🌟 My name is Gabriela and I have over 8 years of experience working with children, always with love, responsibility, and dedication. I’m currently looking for a part-time position, ideally 4–5 hours a day, Monday through Friday, as I’m growing my own small business and looking for a schedule that allows me to balance both. My ideal hours would be 9:00 AM–1:00 PM or 8:00 AM–12:00 PM/1:00 PM, but I’m flexible. I truly enjoy organizing and creating calm, functional spaces, so I’d be happy to work as a Mother’s Helper, helping with household organization, laundry, tidying up, meal prep for the kids, and other light household tasks. I’m also available to help care for children if needed. I have several years of nanny experience and genuinely love working with kids. If you or someone you know is looking for an extra set of hands during the day, I’d love to connect! 📚 Experience with multiple age groups 🗣️ Trilingual: Portuguese | English | Spanish 🫶🏼 Caring, patient, and reliable ✅ References available Thank you 💛

Gabby is very professional and demonstrated great communication skills throughout the process. Our kids loved having her over. We will definitely reach out to her again the next time we are looking for a sitter and would highly recommend to other parents.
