$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Kenmore, WA

Hi - I’m Joey - I'm 61 and full of energy! I am offering child care and household services. Also- special event services/catering, party help. I'm semi-retired, after some amazing careers (from clothing design, baby boutique owner, event planning to catering)- and now I'm focusing on my art and working part time at a few of my interests. I spend a lot of time in nature walking and hiking with my dog Blue- rain or shine. (Also, spend a lot of time at Pickleball!) I love babies and kids- I'm a very patient, helpful, friendly person and love meeting new people. My adult daughters always tell me that I should be a caregiver/babysitter/nanny. I'm happy to help with homework, reading, doing crafts, going for walks etc. My baby/child care started very early- When I was 10 my mom had #5 and basically handed her over. We are very close now still. I can cook, clean, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I have helped my 81 year mother quite a bit and am comfortable with senior care. I have always had dogs and cats and am happy to take care of those as well! I have current CPR and First Aid certificates. Love to meet in person! Joey

Joey helped us out on very short notice. I really appreciated her flexibly, since I hadn't had time to really make plans. She got along great with our toddler and was warm, attentive, and professional.

Andrea $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! My name is Andrea Bonilla, but everyone calls me Andy. I’m originally from Colombia and I’m 28 years old. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Colombia and I’m currently continuing my studies in Psychology at Seattle Central College. I have over 4 years of experience caring for children between 0 and 13 years old. I’m an active, patient, creative, and cheerful person who truly enjoys spending time with kids. I love singing, playing, and creating fun and educational activities. I also have experience caring for children with special needs, including feeding through a G-tube. My background in psychology has helped me better understand children’s emotional and developmental needs, and I always strive to create a safe, nurturing, and happy environment for them. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and bring joy to your little ones!

"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!"
