Leahcim Kirkland
$35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Leahcim, and I’m a patient, kind, and bubbly babysitter who enjoys connecting with kids on their level. I bring a creative and thoughtful approach to childcare, always striving to make every moment fun, educational, and nurturing. Whether it’s reading stories, playing imaginative games, coloring, doing outdoor activities, or working through homework, I love helping children learn, grow, and express themselves. I have a strong foundation in child development and family studies through college coursework, which helps me better understand the emotional, behavioral, and developmental needs of children at every age. I’ve cared for toddlers and kids ages 2 to 10 and have hands-on experience with diaper changes, bottle prep, feeding, teething, and more. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with household tasks like meal prep, light cleaning, or pet care! I’m comfortable around animals and understand how to support a busy household. I also offer tutoring support and have experience tutoring elementary and middle school students with schoolwork. Families can count on me to be responsible, flexible, and communicative. I value building trust with both kids and parents and am committed to creating a safe, joyful, and supportive environment. Whether you need a fun playmate, a patient tutor, or an extra set of hands around the house, I’m here to help however I can!

Hello! If you are looking for a reliable, flexible and experienced babysitter… here I am! Hello, I'm Brenda! I have experience as an au pair and full-time nanny. I have been look after newborns, infants and toddlers since I was 18 years old and I have been a nanny live for three years in Europe and babysitter in United States. I could say that I feel very comfortable taking care of babies since most of my years of experience are with them. Driving to school, preparing food, personal care, playing with kids like children and being an adult during tantrums are my daily responsibilities. My references always mention that I have good skills for getting them kids used to routines, and doing early stimulation activities. I consider myself a very mature and responsible person, patient, loving tidy and clean. Spanish speaker and advanced English Clean driving record US driving license

It is unprofessional of Brenda to not respond to a job request. We waited for long to not be able to find another caregiver.

Booked by 1 family in Edmonds, WA

Hi! My name is Kelly. I have over 6 years of experience working with children, and I currently work full-time as a Marketing Director at a school. Since we're on summer break, I'm looking for an opportunity to earn some extra income. I've cared for children of all ages, with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers. As a native Spanish speaker, I would love the opportunity to introduce your little ones to a new language. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and keeping them engaged through fun indoor and outdoor activities. I also have a clean driving record and can provide excellent references. I look forward to connecting with you and your family! 😊🌟

Definitely hire her again. She was on time and very sweet to our 13 months old boy. The whole family like her.
