Hi, my name is Diana! I’m 30 years old and hold a bachelor’s degree in Educational Psychology. I’m currently working as an early preschool teacher, and I’m passionate about children’s development and the many ways they learn. I love exploring how kids think, feel, express themselves, and how to best support their growth. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children—as both a nanny and during my college years. I’ve also worked as a Spanish and English teacher, as well as with larger groups of children, so I feel confident creating engaging activities for all ages. Some of my favorite things to do with kids include crafts, painting, science experiments, puzzles, board games, and outdoor sports. I also enjoy helping with homework, teaching Spanish, encouraging positive behavior, and offering light household support. I’m fully vaccinated and certified in CPR, First Aid, and MERIT by Early Learning Professionals in Washington. I’d love to bring creativity, patience, and fun into your child’s day while making sure they feel safe and supported.
“Diana was our son's nanny for a year and she was the best! Always arrived on time, quick to learn our routine, knew what to do with little instruction, was a self-starter. We trusted our son with her and let her lead with which activities to do at home. She was pretty much the perfect nanny for us. We definitely recommend her.”
*looking for full time-part time regular positions for this summer starting July 1* Hello/hola! My name is Marilyn, I’m a 24 year old, bilingual (English/Spanish), student with over 6 years of childcare and senior care experience. I have 3 years of experience working for the YMCA as a before/after school instructor, summer camp counselor, and a early learning center floater. I have also nannied for three families and have been an on call babysitter for five others. I live in the Issaquah/Newcastle area and would love to find families to provide childcare for! I genuinely enjoy it and am working to have a bit of money while in nursing school at Bellevue College. I have many wonderful references and would love to chat if interested. Pay range negotiable and cash is preferred.
“Our kids really enjoyed having Marilyn spend time with them! She was on time, easy to talk too, and a great communicator. She also agreed to house sit and keep an eye on our dogs while we are away for a night.”
Hi there! I'm Esra - a calm, reliable, and caring nanny who truly loves spending time with little ones. I've worked with infants, toddlers, and young children, including full-time experience with a 6-month-old during my au pair year. I'm patient, safety-focused, and always try to create a warm, happy, and structured environment for kids. • Experience with infants, toddlers, and young children • CPR & First Aid certified • Fully engaged playtime (reading, sensory play, outdoor walks, tummy time, developmental activities) • Ability to follow routines (naps, bottles, meals, bedtime) • Light housekeeping related to the child (dishes, laundry, tidying play areas) • Respectful, kind, and warm presence • Comfortable with pets • Open to trial/meet & greet calls
“We hired Esra to care for our 10-month-old son, and she has been excellent. She is caring, gentle, and patient. She engages with him through play, songs, and outdoor walks, and he enjoys his time with her. We’re grateful for her support.”
Hello! My name is Katie. I have been working as a full time nanny for the last 6 years, and babysat for several years prior as well. I have cared for kids aged 4 months to 10 years, and also helped as a household manager- scheduling appointments and running errands. Additionally, I have experience working in a Montessori school/daycare. I would love to chat more and see if I could be a good fit with your family!
Hi, parents! I recently moved to the Seattle area (Issaquah) from San Diego and am looking to connect with families who need a reliable, caring babysitter for date nights, evenings, or weekends. This is actually my first time using UrbanSitter! Back in San Diego, I found all of my babysitting jobs through word of mouth. Families I worked with would recommend me to their friends, and I was babysitting for entire friend groups and neighboring families. I'm excited to use this platform to build those same long-term relationships with families here in Washington. I work full-time during the day, so I'm available after 5:00 PM on weekdays and have much more flexibility on weekends. I'm based in Issaquah and am happy to travel up to about 15 miles for the right family. A little about me: ⭐ 6+ years of babysitting and nanny experience ⭐ Experience with children of all ages, especially newborns and toddlers ⭐ CPR certified ⭐ Reliable transportation with a clean driving record ⭐ Fluent in English and Portuguese ⭐ Experience with potty training, introducing solid foods, establishing healthy sleep routines, and Montessori-inspired play Outside of work, I'm a huge animal lover (proud dog mom!) who loves spending time outdoors. I also enjoy cooking, and I have a big interest in holistic health and living a healthy, active lifestyle. Reading books, dancing to music, and playing sports are some of my favorite activities to do with kids. I love encouraging curiosity through stories while keeping little ones active with outdoor play, games, and plenty of fun. I always respect each family's routines, parenting style, and instructions while making sure the kids feel safe, happy, and excited to spend time together. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and become your go-to sitter whenever you need an extra set of helping hands!

"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!"
