I’m currently completing my pre-med while working per diem at a peritoneal dialysis (PD) kidney center. I’m CPR/BLS certified and live in Seattle near Alki Beach. I’m responsible and have five years of experience in childcare, working with children ages 2-15, as well as caring for my seven siblings growing up. I enjoy cooking, painting, and music, and I’m an outgoing person.
Hi! I’m Fatima, a student at the University of Washington’s Foster School of Business, and I genuinely love working with children. As the oldest in my family, I naturally grew up helping care for younger siblings and relatives, and I’ve been babysitting children of all ages, from newborns to preteens since I was 12 years old. I love creating a warm, safe, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework, baking treats, or simply having fun together, I always try to make sure children feel supported, happy, and cared for. I also understand how important trust and communication are for parents, and I always strive to be someone families can truly rely on. In past nannying and babysitting experiences, I’ve helped with school pick-ups and drop-offs, tutoring, meal prep, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, and keeping busy schedules organized. More than anything, I love building genuine connections with the families I work with and becoming a positive and dependable presence in children’s lives. Families often describe me as patient, caring, responsible, and energetic, and I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and support your little ones!
“Fatima was so kind to my son. She played games with him and fed him dinner while I was away for several hours. She communicated regularly via text. I also interviewed her by phone and found her to be lovely. I would hire her again and recommend her services. ”
I’m a pharmacist by profession, but I’ve always had a love for caring for others, especially children! I spent many years babysitting throughout high school and college, caring for children of all ages. I enjoy helping older kids with homework and tutoring, while encouraging younger children to explore their creativity, play, and have fun. My background in pharmacy has helped me develop strong attention to detail, patience, responsibility, and a caring, safety-conscious approach. I’m dependable, nurturing, and enjoy creating a positive environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. I’m also a big animal lover and proud dog mom to my goldendoodle, Piper! I love dogs and am happy to help with pet care as well. Whether it’s keeping kids entertained, helping with homework, caring for pets, or lending a hand around the house, I love being someone families can count on!
Hi! I’m Suhur. I’m a college student and experienced in childcare who genuinely loves working with kids and being part of their little world. Whether we’re doing crafts, reading stories or playing outside. I love creating a fun, safe, and comforting environment where children can feel happy and themselves. I’m patient, dependable, and easy to communicate with, and I treat every child with care, kindness, and lots of positive energy!
Hi there! I am the mom of 2 high school kids. I have a Masters in Secondary Education, and during the school year, I run my own math tutoring business, from elementary to high school students. I have 8 years experience as an art and science teacher. I am working part-time as a nanny for infants and small children. I have a lot of experience with infants and toddlers. I am an active and attentive caregiver: I sing to, read to, play with, teach, and comfort the infants/kids I nanny. I participated with my own kids in coop preschool. I still incorporate what I learned in preschool into my tutoring and nanny work: encouraging positive behavior, calmly setting limits, asking children questions, and really listening to children. I enjoy being around kids. I am a swimmer, outdoor enthusiast (hiking, biking and bird watching), and enjoy spending time with my family outdoors.
“Greta was an absolute lifesaver for our family. After working with multiple sitters and nannies, I can confidently say she was by far the best. She consistently went above and beyond, especially in caring for our daughter, who has special requirements. Greta and our daughter quickly became best friends—she was always excited when Greta came by. Greta supported us tremendously as new parents, offering thoughtful tips and advice when asked, and truly became part of our family. Even during our daughter’s “stranger danger” phase, Greta was someone she trusted and adored when others couldn’t calm her. We will absolutely continue to use Greta in the future and highly recommend her.”

"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."
Laura F., mom of two
