Booked by 2 families in Issaquah, WA

Hello :) I am a mother of two teenage daughters. I have a degree in Elementary Education and over 10 years experience as both a Preschool Teacher and Nanny/Caregiver. I have worked with children of all ages and am passionate about fostering each child’s interests and development through thoughtful and loving care. I also enjoy supporting families with additional needs so am happy to help with pets, light housekeeping, organization, errands, etc. In addition, I am currently a Care Driver for HopSkipDrive (a ride-share service for school children) so am qualified and comfortable with driving your children to/from activities. I am patient, kind, respectful, reliable and fun! I consider it a privilege to be welcomed into your family and look forward to meeting you all!

Our toddler warmed up to Holly faster than I expected and was excited to play and read with her the entire time. Holly also had excellent communication about the booking and was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

Hi there! My name is Asma and I can’t wait to work with you. A little about me, I am originally from Ethiopia and eventually made my way to the States in 1998. Since then, I am lucky enough to have birthed 4 beautiful kids here: 3 boys (9, 16, 18) and 1 girl (19)! Aside from the motherhood experience, I’ve worked with seniors and children of all ages for over a decade. I have been employed as an Assistant Teacher at the Goddard School in Snoqualmie, Washington since 2016. At the Goddard School, I have been an assistant teacher to several teachers and have cared for ages newborn to 5, just until they’re headed to Kindergarten. In doing so, my responsibilities included: creating a calm, safe and nurturing environment to meet the physical, emotional and cognitive needs of infants, diaper changing, playing indoor & outdoors, etc. Furthermore, from 2005 to 2010, I was employed as a Home Care Assistance through Chesterfield in Seattle, Washington where I was responsible for caring for several seniors. My responsibilities included: mobility support, assisting with maintaining personal hygiene by bathing, brushing their hair and teeth or applying skincare, etc. I truly love working with seniors and children as they both provide me with a sense of joy and happiness. With each child or senior that I care for, I am committed to providing a safe and comfortable relationship with one another to ensure that they are best cared for. I would love to expand on my experience, if needed. Please feel free to reach out at anytime. Before accepting a booking, please be aware that I am unable to work with dogs and/or cats. Nevertheless, I am so excited to meet you! Additional Info: ⁃ Cleared for TB ⁃ MMR Immunization

Available evenings, overnights, and last-minute requests, every day after 5:00 PM Hi there! I'm a Seattle-based college student in my final year, living in Bellevue looking for evening and overnight babysitting opportunities. Experience: - 9+ years of childcare experience, starting with my niece at age 1 (she's 10 now!) - Long-term care for two brothers, watched since they were 2 and 4 (now 5 and 7) - Cared for two professors' families, with kids ages 2-4, including managing two children at once - Comfortable with kids ages 1 and above individually or in groups Pet-Friendly: Grew up with two dogs and I'm comfortable around dogs, cats, fish, turtles, and parrots - your furry (or scaly!) family members are in good hands too. Beyond Childcare: I'm happy to help with light housework while I'm there - things like tidying up toys and play areas, washing bottles or dishes, folding laundry, or wiping down kitchen surfaces. I like leaving things a little tidier than I found them so you come home to one less thing on your plate. :) What I Offer - Reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids - Homework help, bedtime routines, and keeping things fun and calm - Comfortable pitching in with light chores when needed - Flexible for last-minute and overnight requests Feel free to reach out anytime to chat more or set up a meet-and-greet! :)

I had great experience with Gergana! She was punctual, easy to communicate, and highly efficient. I needed help with dog walking ( i have two big dogs) and house chores and she did great job with all. My 2 year old also liked her and offered hugs and wanted to play with her. She’s very accommodating and flexible in terms of the type of help needed. I highly recommend Gergana!

Ana 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I’m Ana from Colombia! I really enjoy being a babysitter. I have over 4 years of experience of childcare from ages 3 months up to 11 years old. I like to take kids outside to parks, museums, and on other adventures especially when the weather is better. My past experiences include being a live-in nanny for a family with two children in Ballard. I provided full time care in this case including cooking, bathing, and playing. Recently for other families my responsibilities have included driving children ages 10 & 12 to and from school, extracurricular activities, medical appointments, and helping parents out with special events. I love animals, I grow up with dogs around. I have two cats, so I’ll be more than happy to work for a family with pets no problem! Fully vaccinated and open to answer any other questions prospective families may have! 

Ana is a complete gem! She cared for our twin infants and was everything we could have asked for - caring, responsible, and professional. She took care of bottles, laundry, and took them on daily walks. When I would work from home I would see her engaging them with play, stories and music. Our twins had regular physical therapy for gross motor development and Ana came with me to their appointments, learned all the exercises and did them with the babies regularly. She was a true partner in supporting their development. We feel so lucky that Ana cared for our babies!

"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!"
