My name is Miley and I have 8.5 years of experience working with children in a variety of different settings including traditional daycare, Montessori school, nannying, residential, and after school care settings. I have experience with all age groups aged 0-17, however most of my experience has been with young children ages 0-3. I graduated in December 2025 from Portland State with a bachelors degree in psychology, and am currently attending graduate school at the University of Washington for applied child and adolescent psychology. Right now I’m mostly looking for date night type of gigs while I’m in grad school.
Hi, my name is Helen! I moved to Seattle after high school and completed my college career here. I've worked most of my life with children and I love it. I love how much character their personalities already have and the energy and joy they bring to the table. I've worked personally for families as well as done babysitting for events where childcare is provided; which has given me a chance to watch wide variety of ages. The imagination that children possess is something to behold, nothing is simply ever just a 'toy' but has a whole story to it. That's a little bit about me! I hope to meet you in person soon!
“Helen made things so easy! She jumped right in, and the kids warmed up to her right away! She nailed nap time, and kept the kids engaged. Would definitely have her back ”

Outside my caregiving work, I also petsit and housesit as well. my primary work is in the nonprofit sector and I work M-Th 9-5pm either from home or from a Cap Hill office. So available for those long term pet sits. I’m a quick learner, all about efficacy and keeping to the family routine. I really do enjoy a phone call to interview and make sure we are a match.

-CURRENTLY A FULL TIME STUDENT IN BELLINGHAM, OPEN TO OCCASIONAL WORK IN THE AREA- Hello! My name is Sarah and I’ve been working with kids for more than five years now! My childcare journey started when I was 14, when I started working as a junior childcare provider at a church daycare every Monday. Ever since then, I’ve loved working with children! I have 3 years of professional nanny experience with children ages 2, 4 and 11, and over 5 years of experience with kids aged 5 months to 12 years old. I also have experience with being an AuPair in France for 3 months, where I cared for 7 year old twins. I recently went back to France and did another AuPair experience for three weeks, where I cared for a 6 year old, a 3.5 year old, and a 5 month old! I pride myself in my ability to engage with kids all day and keep them creative. I am firm and set good boundaries, but I am also kind. I am great with bedtime routines and meal prep. I am also fully CPR certified, I have a clean drivers record with my own vehicle, and I pride myself on punctuality! I am also fluent in French (C1 level) , so if you want to expose your kiddo to a new language, I can help with that!
“On time, kids had a great time!”
I'm Carol, an experienced nanny. I'm 26 years old. I live in Seattle, at the nice neighborhood of Queen Anne. Currently, I take care full-time a lovely 9 months old baby girl, Monday through Friday. I'm available for extra shifts in the evening and night. I also have experience with dog sitting and housesitting. I have a Bachelor's degree from Brazil and recently started studying for an MBA. I love traveling, making new friends, and exploring different places and cultures. I enjoy cooking and love doing crafts. I have extensive experience with children and am passionate about working with them. I have prepared myself well for this career. I am responsible, affectionate, and dedicated. I treat children with love, care, and attention. I'm also very creative when it comes to entertaining kids-we always have fun with age-appropriate activities that support their development. I'm fully vaccinated and certified in First Aid, CPR, and babysitting!
“Carol was diligent, cheerful, helpful, and also well liked by my 4-year-old!”

"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."
