Hi! My name is Lorna, I’m 27 years old and I have a lot experience working with kids. I have been working with children since I was 15 years old. I started by caring for my neighbors’ and family friends’ kids, and my passion for childcare has grown ever since. After finishing high school and starting university, where I studied to become a kindergarten teacher. I worked in two daycares, where I gained experience with children of different ages and developmental stages. I also worked as a prefect in a high school for two years and as an English as a Second Language (ESL) teacher for another two years in two different kindergartens, helping students improve their communication skills and confidence. Most recently, I worked as a nanny in the United States for almost two years, providing full-time care and support for children while assisting with daily routines, activities, and household tasks. I love creating a positive, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel safe.
Hello! My name is Kyleigh, and I am currently offering child (or multiple children), cat or household care. I have a BA in international studies, and have been working in education & youth development non-profits for 7(+) years. I have a strong background in lesson & activity planning for school age children. I have cared for up to 4 children on my own for an entire summer, doing outdoor & indoor activities, cooking breakfast/lunch & prioritizing reading/library time as well. I feel comfortable doing basic home care (overnight/vacation, dishes, laundry, vacuum/sweeping, etc). If I seem like a good match for your family, please connect with me!
“Very engaging with kid, and flexible with household chores! Thanks Kyleigh ”
I'm 26 years old, I'm currently a Full-Time Nanny and I watch over children since I was 14 years old for occasional date nights or community volunteering at events and talent shows. All my experiences are with children between newborn and 12 years old. I love learning with them and helping them to develop their skills. I appreciate a good and open communication and working with the parents to provide their kids the best support and care
Hi! I'm Babi, 23, from Brazil/Italy. I've been an au pair twice in Europe, first in Poland and then in Spain, and now I'm moving to Seattle. Caring for kids is something I truly love, and I want to keep doing it. In Poland and Spain I took care of 4, 7, 10 and 12, and each family had a different routine. I learned to adapt quickly, and keep the kids safe and happy. I like having a routine, but I also like to go with the flow and let the kids choose what to play sometimes. My favorite activities are arts and crafts, games, story time, and outdoor play. I love being outside with kids, rain or shine! I'm also comfortable driving kids to activities. I fluent in Italian and Portuguese, and I also speak English and Spanish. I'd love to share a few words in other languages with your kids in a fun and natural way. A little more about me: I'm responsible, punctual, and patient, and I believe open communication avoids misunderstandings. I'd love to meet your family and make your days a little easier!

"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."
