Hi! I’m Julisa, a senior at the University of Washington offering dependable child care, pet care, and light household support in the Seattle area. I’ve cared for children ages 6 months to early teens since I was 16, bringing a mix of energy, patience, and creativity to each job—whether it’s playtime, homework help, or school pickups. I have a safe, reliable car and am comfortable driving kids to activities, appointments, or wherever they need to go. I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve worked with reactive dogs and have hands-on experience with puppy training as well. I grew up with two cats and now have a dog named Orion, who’s back home in California with my family. Alongside child and pet care, I’m happy to help with light cooking, tidying up, errands, or anything else that keeps your home running smoothly.
Hi! My name is Momona. I am a recent graduate from the University of Washington studied Human Centered Design adn Engineering! Some of my hobbies are hiking, swimming, and biking. I love to spend my days enjoying the outdoors with friends or family. I would describe myself to be extroverted, patient, and communicative.
“Momona is truly heaven sent, and I don't say that lightly. As a mom of three little ones ages 5, 3, and 2 finding someone I fully trust to care for them has always felt nearly impossible. Thankfully, Momona came along. She is not only incredibly kind and attentive, but she intuitively understands how to care for each of my children in ways that suit their unique personalities and needs. She blends right into the flow of our days: helping my 5-year-old with early learning activities, guiding my imaginative 3-year-old through play, and keeping up with my energetic 2-year-old with endless patience. My kids absolutely love her, they get excited when they know she's coming and talk about her long after she has left. Most importantly, Momona is someone I truly trust. When I leave the house, I do so with complete peace of mind knowing that my children are safe, cared for, and happy in her presence. That kind of trust is priceless. She’s dependable, communicates clearly, and always goes the extra mile. Momona has been a blessing to our home, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for warm, capable, and loving childcare.”
Hi! My name is Katarina (or Kat) and I am a former Pre-Kindergarten teacher, now law student, looking for a babysitting job on the side. I have been babysitting since beginning if high school. I'm a very active person who loves to enjoy the outdoors and do fun sporty activities, but I'm also down for a laid back night in with some board games and movies :)
Hi! I'm Babi, I've been an au pair twice in Europe, first in Poland and then in Spain, and now I live in Seattle. Caring for kids is something I truly love, and I want to keep doing it. In Poland and Spain I took care of 4, 7, 10 and 12, and each family had a different routine. I learned to adapt quickly, and keep the kids safe and happy. I like having a routine, but I also like to go with the flow and let the kids choose what to play sometimes. My favorite activities are arts and crafts, games, story time, and outdoor play. I love being outside with kids, rain or shine! I'm also comfortable driving kids to activities. I fluent in Italian and Portuguese, and I also speak English and Spanish. I'd love to share a few words in other languages with your kids in a fun and natural way. A little more about me: I'm responsible, punctual, and patient, and I believe open communication avoids misunderstandings. I'd love to meet your family and make your days a little easier!
Hi, my name is Valentina and I have been caring for children since I was 17, with about five years of experience. I have worked with babies, toddlers, and children up to 10 years old, including experience in daycare settings. I love planning age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, music, reading time, and playing at the park to support each child’s development in a fun and creative way. As a person, I am very calm, respectful, and patient, and I believe in teaching children healthy habits through daily routines and example. I care for every child with love, respect, and a strong sense of responsibility, always prioritizing their safety and emotional well-being. I am also comfortable helping with light housekeeping and keeping the children’s spaces organized and tidy.

"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!"
