Booked by 16 families in Granite Falls, WA

As a mom myself, I know first hand how difficult (and overwhelming at times) it was to find a trusting babysitter or nanny for my boys when they were younger. The way I see it, there is no greater job than being a parent. And when you have to make it to your job and can't be "there" for your children, you want to make sure they are in the right hands. That's where I come in, to offer you the peace of mind that your child will be safe, well cared for, nurtured and encouraged to thrive. I have a long experience with child care, from newborn to school age teenagers. I have a Bachelors in Education Sciences, with emphasis in Child Development. I am current on CPR, AED and First Aid training, and I am certified in Defensive Driving. I am also a Washington state Certified Specialized Para-Educator working with my school district in the mornings during the school year. If you're reading this message it’s because you're in need of someone you can trust your child with. So, send me a message and I will respond promptly.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Ilda! She was always punctual—often arriving a little early each day, which immediately put us at ease. From the moment she met our baby, it was clear she had a natural gift with children. Our little one instantly connected with her and was so happy and comfortable in her care. What really stood out was not only her warmth and patience, but also her depth of experience. She shared thoughtful insights about our baby’s development and what to expect in the coming months, which was incredibly helpful for us as new parents. It felt like she wasn’t just providing care, but also partnering with us in understanding our child’s growth. We feel so lucky to have found Ilda and would enthusiastically recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy, insightful, and experienced caregiver.”

Daniel $18 per hour for 1 child

I am CPR certified Experience with dogs and cats Experience with grade school kids I enjoy helping people and intend to make a career in healthcare. I started a degree bachelor’s degree in psychology and intend on going into early developmental psychology. My sister and I grew up 9 years apart and I spent much of my younger years baby sitting. At 13, we all lived with my grandmother, uncles and nephews. Which meant we all went to the same school and I walked with them everyday and watched until someone was home My mother used to run a daycare out of our home when I was 15 and I spent a lot of time around the kids. After high school I did an electrical internship for some time and have experience with household assistance. Experience cooking with instructions.

Kiara $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Granite Falls, WA

Howdy! My name is Kiara, and thank you for considering me to watch some of the most valuable beings in your life. I am 22 years old, and grew up as the eldest in my family with 2 significantly younger sisters, and several cousins, whom I have helped keep an eye on. Children bring a sense of wonder and curiosity many adults have lost, which is why I believe it is our responsibility as caretakers to responsibly foster these traits in a safe environment. I believe the best way to do this is to play, imagine, discover, and grow with those whom I watch. They have as much to teach me, as I do to them. Pets are family too, which is why I understand the love and compassion needed to care take for them as well. From walks, to playtime, or even cleaning up after accidents, I am here to care for them in your steed as you go on adventures of your own!

"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!"
