Hi Im Lucille! I'm a high school graduate currently taking a gap year to focus on personal growth and planning for my future. I'll be starting college this fall! While I haven't babysat professionally, I have hands-on experience caring for my sister, who has special needs. Through that, l've developed strong skills in meal preparation, sleep routines, problem solving, and communication. I'm currently working at an ice cream shop, where l've learned to stay patient, responsible, and kind in a fast-paced environment. I'm respectful, adaptable, and comfortable working with all kinds of personalities. Feel free to contact me for references or to set up all!
Hello, My name is Bri and I'm a care worker (children and disabled people), freelance writer and copy editor who is looking for childcare gigs, preferably in the North Seattle area. Open to pet- and housesitting too! I enjoy exploring neighborhoods and identifying flowers and foliage of the PNW. I have a Psychology B.A. with a focus on language development, and several years of experience working with toddlers and older kids (up to middle school age), from day care to summer camp to school and home settings. I have worked plenty with children with disabilities as well. I am a quick problem-solver and remain calm in challenging situations. I am attentive, crafty, imaginative, and engaging, and I currently crave the wonder and unintentional comedic energy children tend to bring to any space. I look forward to helping you out with quality care for your kid and/or fur baby (I love any and all pets, and have a fluffy orange cat)!
My name is Evie and I am a student at WWU. In high school, I had the best job at the YMCA for 2 years for elementary age kids. I also have been babysitting for 4 years. I have two bunnies, a hamster, a parakeet, and a fish at home so I am experienced at taking care of many different critters, as well as cats and dogs! I am open to many kinds of work such as babysitting, any kind of pet watching/walking, house sitting, and running errands.
Hello! My name is Maryam and I have been working with kids for the last 7 years. Childcare is something that I care so much about and put my whole heart into. My previous jobs have been an Education Director at the Boys and Girls Club, a youth development professional for before and after school care, an educator, a tutor, and a swim instructor. I'm also certified in First Aid and CPR, fully vaccinated, and passionate about making sure that all of the kids I work with are cared for and happy :) As the middle child of six siblings, l've grown up knowing how important family is, and my natural warmth and responsibility shine through in everything I do. I'm currently pursuing my college education, mostly online, which helps me have a more flexible schedule. So! If you're looking for a babysitter who's fun, friendly, empathetic, dependable, and experienced, then l'd love to meet you and your kiddos!
I have tons of experience working with many ages of students. I have time at 3pm-6pm to assist with anyone that may need help with someone picking up their child from school and then bringing them to their activities or home. I am super friendly and loves working with students or children and is finishing my master's degree in Elementary education at WGU. I also have lot experience working in a school environment.

"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."
