Ruun $23 per hour for 1 child

I'm a senior at the University of Washington looking to work with kids. I grew up helping in my mom's daycare and have also worked as an in-home care aide, so caregiving has always been a big part of my life. I'm patient, reliable, and quick to adapt, whether it's a new routine or a change in plans. I'd love to be a fun, caring, and dependable presence for your family!

Madison $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Maddie, and I offer child care, pet care, senior care, and household support. I’m currently looking for occasional, one-off, or part-time work to supplement my income and support families who need a reliable extra set of hands. I grew up booked and busy as a babysitter and nanny, and caring for others has always come naturally to me. My experience includes driving to/from activities, organizing arts & crafts/fun learning experiences, tutoring/homework help, cooking meals, and keeping children engaged, safe, and happy. For 6 years I worked as a swim coach, coaching children ages 5 - 18 and introducing infants and toddlers (ages 1 - 4) to the pool. These experiences helped me develop strong skills in supervision, patience, communication, and adapting to different ages and personalities. Professionally, I’ve spent the last 10 years as an Executive Assistant to CEOs, where I honed my organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills. I’m proactive, calm under pressure, and intuitive about anticipating needs - skills that translate into caregiving and household support. I’m also an animal lover through and through. I grew up with dogs, lived with a cat after college, and have no allergies. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and giving pets lots of attention. Lastly, I was a caretaker for my grandmother for a short time - assisting with basic senior care including cooking, transportation to appointments, and companionship (I’m a great cribbage partner!). I’m dependable, respectful, and genuinely enjoy helping and supporting others. I was raised in a household where everyone pitched in, so I’m very comfortable with cooking, cleaning, errands, and general household help. Whether you need childcare, pet care, senior assistance, or help keeping things running smoothly, I’m happy to step in. I look forward to connecting!

Hi! I’m Tamima, and I’d love the opportunity to babysit for your family! I’m a responsible, caring, and patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. I’ve grown up in a big family, so I’ve had lots of experience being around and caring for younger children. I’m comfortable helping with meals, keeping kids entertained, playing games, helping with homework, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m someone who is dependable and attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable leaving their children with someone they trust. I’ll always do my best to make sure your kids have a fun, safe, and positive time while you’re away. I’d love to get to know your family and become someone you can rely on!
