Hi- my name is Carolyne. I'm Brazilian, married, mother of two boys, 14 and 10 years old and have a dog. I’m offer child care, senior care and household services. I currently work as babysitter with lovely family. I have over 10 years of experience with children aged 0-10. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers and Kids. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts and tutoring. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and organize. I am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments or do other tasks. I am happy to work with families with dogs or cats. I am responsible, punctual and reliable.

“Carolyne is one of the humans who have an inborn talent to connect, empathize, love a baby deeply. She is an incredible nanny, a wonderful household assistant and above all a modest, hardworking, and kind human who will go above and beyond to help a family. We cherish our bond with her and my baby is lucky to have such a beautiful bond. She organized everything my baby’s nursery, my pantry , and was my life savior in the first chaotic months of newborn. Some people shine in the chapters of life and Carolyne will always be that star in my life!”

I am a nurse and have been working for 6 years. I have worked the longest (and currently work) in primary care which includes children of all ages. Prior to my nursing degree, I was a nanny and caregiver throughout college (4 years), and I babysat in high school too (all ages). I am hoping to offer nanny services on my off days to help save for our own little one in the next year or so :) I love children of all ages and am excited to meet new families!

Hi! My name is Melinda and I have been babysitting for more than a year and a half. I am entering my freshman year at UW Bothell and I offer childcare. I also work at a summer camp during the summer in my local neighborhood. I work well with kids and know how to lead games and how to entertain them. I am also CPR certified from the training I went through to work at the summer camp. I communicate well and make sure that the kids are safe. I have my license as well and can help with watching kids after practices or extra curriculars. Please feel free to reach out if a babysitter is needed!

"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!"
