Elizabeth $23 per hour for 1 child

I am a nurse and have been working for 6 years. I have worked the longest (and currently work) in primary care which includes children of all ages. Prior to my nursing degree, I was a nanny and caregiver throughout college (4 years), and I babysat in high school too (all ages). I am hoping to offer nanny services on my off days to help save for our own little one in the next year or so :) I love children of all ages and am excited to meet new families!

Booked by 1 family in Kirkland, WA

Hi! I’m Yasmin and have been babysitting and nannying for over 20 years. I would describe myself as extremely outgoing, fun and bubbly! I am an avid traveler and have traveled to over 30 countries! I am fluent in Arabic and went to boarding school in Amman, Jordan. I have a huge family with over 60 cousins, nephews and nieces. I love kids and did my first year of university in Education. I did receive honors and after graduation I went on and received my certification in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). I am now doing a masters program and am looking to babysit part time. Both my parents are chefs/baker so I love to cook and feed nutritious meals to your kids. I’m clean, reliable and honest. I’m excited to connect, learn and help your family! Thank you!!

Jack $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jack, I am 23 years old and born and raised in Seattle. I want to become a music teacher and in the winter will begin my classes for a teaching degree. Right now I am offering childcare, pet care, and house sitting. I am an older brother of a little sister and a baby brother so I’ve been watching kids and babysitting since I was 12. Outside of my own family, I babysat through high school, including large groups of kids (group of 6 kids all under 13yo) and have experience working with kids professionally in the Seattle public system and briefly at a public middle school in Oakland CA. I also love pets! If you have any furry friends who need some attention I have lots of experience with cats and dogs. I have fostered kittens and older cats including behaviorally challenged cats. I have experience with large breeds as my family owns a Rottweiler, and I have experience dog sitting behaviorally challenged dogs as well. Some special experience I have is with instrumental coaching and beginning music skills. I also have lots of experience outdoors fishing, hiking, rock climbing, I’d be happy to take adventures outdoors or go out for activities. Please feel free to ask any questions about my experience!

TAMARA $18 per hour for 1 child

I am a caregiver by nature. Beyond being a parent, I have also provided afterschool care and I teach at a preschool part time. I love engaging kids in playful activities and going on adventures. I love crafts and games. I host kids in my outdoor play area as well. I hope to serve as many people as I can. I think it is imperative that kids get a chance to play with others in order to learn crucial skills for their future. I would like the opportunity to share time exploring and creating fun memories while learning new skills with your child. I am a fan of the Reggio Emilia approach to learning and will follow the child's interests. Feel free to contact me with any questions- Tamara

"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!"
