Luwam $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in White Center, WA

Hi! My name is Luwam. I’m a caring and dependable caregiver with hands-on experience from raising my four children. I truly believe children learn and grow best when they feel safe, loved, and comfortable—and that is the kind of environment I always strive to create. I have completed a certificate in Early Childhood Education and have a genuine passion for helping children explore, discover, and reach their full developmental potential. I am patient, responsible, and committed to supporting families by providing attentive, nurturing, and reliable care. I am also certified as a school volunteer and chaperone, which has given me additional experience supervising children during school activities, field trips, and group events. I currently work with children with special needs as an assistant, and I am always willing to learn more so I can better support every child’s unique needs.

Kayla $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am a responsible, fun, and empathetic person looking forward to meeting your kids. I am a college student pursuing a degree in environmental science and wildlife conservation. In past summers, I have worked at nature camps teaching kids about the environment. I would love to talk to your kids about the world around us. Beyond nature, I am a skilled artist. With just a simple crayon I can entertain, we can craft out of recycling, or wherever their imagination goes! While I succeed at making things fun, sometimes life is hard. I have experience comforting kids when they are upset, so you can count on me to make sure they are cared for. Please consider me to help take care of your favorite person(s) in the whole world. As a teen I took the YMCA babysitting course. I have previously been CPR certified and I am currently in the process of getting it updated. I have experience with ages 0-12 and would ideally like to work with ages 2-6. Animals are comfortable around me and I enjoy being around chill pets.
