Hi, I am April and helping families and children is my passion. I am currently a full time Early Head Start Home Visitor for the Puget Sound ESD. Previous to this I was a teacher for Head Start in a blended Special Ed classroom of 3 to 5 year olds. I also worked for Early Head Start as an infant toddler teacher. My work as a Head Start teacher started in 2009. I also have experience as a nanny and have been a supervisor of a childcare center. My experience with children ranges from ages 0 to teens. However, I consider myself an Early childhood professional and 0-5 is who I work with most and feel most confident with. I have experience with children with Autism, Down Syndrom, and a variety of sensory needs. I take pride in working in this field as I believe early childhood education is what builds a successful foundation for learning. I also have a degree in Early Childhood Education. My philosophy with children is based upon them having their social/emotional needs met. When children can feel good about themselves, they are likely to thrive in learning and play. I believe kids are best engaged when they are doing what they love whether that be pretend play, play dough, outdoor play, etc. Getting to know their interests is how I learn to work with them. In addition, I am happy to follow your guidance on their routines as well. I live in Burien. I am available evenings, weekends, and overnights. I am open to housesitting or watching your children while you enjoy a weekend get away. I have a car for transporting children if needed. I also stay to date on my flu and Covid vaccines. I hope to hear from you!

Hello UrbanSitter Families! I'm not the greatest at introductions but I promise I'm far better in-person with families and kids. Combined, I have now over 15 years of experience working with families. In fact, there has not really been a time where I have ever stopped working with families! I have professionally managed events, conferences, and weddings for a good chunk of my career before transitioning to academic research and law. Outside of this platform, I work privately in law, with content management, and coach public speaking. I took a break from UrbanSitter for several years for grad schools. Now, I mostly use UrbanSitter to help with occasional date night, wedding, and events request. Would love to work with you and your family!

Hey guys! My name is Laura, I'm 28 years old, I have a law degree from Brazil and I currently provide child and pet care in Seattle. In my home country, I worked with children aged 0 to 14 (several at the same time!) in a playground, as a monitor, and I also provided care for my younger sister for several years (she is currently 9 years old!) . In Seattle, I have extensive experience caring for infants (including twins!) and toddlers. In addition to changing diapers, offering bottles and healthy foods and lots of affection and love, I also have experience with food introduction, games for milestone development and simple sign languages ​​for infant communication. I also love listening to music, entertaining and exercising the imagination of children of all ages! I am also available to clean areas related to children and I have good experience with this. Finally, I have lived with pets my entire life and can act as a sitter for them with all the affection and happiness that your pet deserves.
