Hello! I am a student in the honors program at the University of Washington in Seattle. I have my drivers license and I am a very responsible driver. I am very creative and I love reading, playing games, doing art, and singing with the kids I babysit for! I speak English and Spanish and I am learning Mandarin. I have two younger sisters who I love and I have experience babysitting children ages 6 months to 14 years old. I am good at problem solving and hope to create a safe and grounded environment for your children. I like to have fun and I have a lot of energy but I also love to be cozy and chill depending on the needs of every family. I love animals and I have experience dog sitting and cat sitting. Let me know if I sound like a good fit for your family!

Hi families! I’m Dani 😊 I’m an experienced nanny who truly cares about creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for kids. My priority is always making sure children feel comfortable, supported. I have several years of hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and young children, including working as a preschool teacher in a Montessori school, an au pair in the U.S., and a full-time nanny. Today, I focus on providing attentive personalized care, whether that’s keeping little ones on their routines, planning age-appropriate activities, or simply being present and responsive to their needs. I’m responsible, patient, organized, and very attentive to safety. I also love creating fun moments with kids through play, creativity, and outdoor time when possible. I’m a strong driver (10+ years of experience), fully vaccinated with booster, CPR & First Aid certified, and a non-smoker. I’d love the opportunity to connect and see how I can support your family. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! Looking forward to hearing from you ☺️

“Dani did an amazing job taking care of our daughter. She was very professional and great at engaging with our five year old. We would recommend her highly to other families and hope to have her come back to take care of our daughter again. ”

Hello families, as my contract is coming to an end soon, I am searching for a new part-time role in the mornings. Availability: 20-30 hours weekly, between 6 AM and 12 PM. A little bit about me: - I have a reliable car. - Clean driving record. - CPR certified. - Non-smoker. - Up to date with all vaccines. - Bilingual (Portuguese and English). - Very outdoorsy. I am enthusiastic, energetic, caring, and patient. I am also very punctual and love pets. North Seattle is preferable, but I’m happy to travel further for the right fit. If you’d like more information, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

“Inaye was so bright and cheery! She was great with my autistic son! I would highly recommend her for anyone and especially for kids with special needs. Thank you Inaye!”

Hello there, my name is Lauren and I am a kind, energetic, and reliable caregiver. I just moved to the beautiful city of Seattle in April 2023. Most recently, I worked with an amazing family in Los Angeles to raise their first child from three months to three years old. I had complete responsibility over his eating, sleeping, social, creative, and intellectual well being. I took my role within the family very seriously making sure that each of those pieces gained the attention they deserved for each milestone. In the last 10 years I have had the opportunity to grow with children ranging from infants to young teenagers. I have a well maintained car with a clean driving record if transportation to classes or adventures is needed. I am open to light housework insuring your home is cleaned up from my time. Thank you for taking the time to read through my profile and I would love to hear from you.

“Lauren was great! Booked her only for housekeeping, but she was super thorough! Would book again.”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
