I have been caring for children since I was 12. I genuinely enjoy being a caregiver—one child I sat for told his mom, "She actually PLAYED with me!" I'm excited to connect with new families to provide engaging and reliable care for babies, children, and seniors. One of my greatest assets is nearly 20 years of professional experience in medicine. This background ensures I bring an exceptional level of safety, patience, and medical awareness to every family I work with. Additionally, I have extensive experience with house and pet sitting, caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, leopard geckos, hissing cockroaches, and a variety of other exotic and regular family pets. I am passionate about pets of all kinds and am happy to assist with house and/or pet sitting as well. I am dedicated to accommodating your family’s specific needs, ensuring a seamless experience—from school pickups to running errands.
“Elizabeth was extremely reliable and professional. She showed up in a timely manner and helped with meals and light clean up. My child had fun with her and liked her as a sitter. I felt she safely looked after my child and was interested in and happy to help with every day extras that may come along. She is a terrific sitter with experience with babies and todlers too.”
Hello! My name is Katie. I am a dedicated Special Education teacher with a passion for child development and animals. Having transitioned from classroom teaching to in-home family support for toddlers with developmental delays, I excel at creating engaging, customized activities. With over four years of experience at a large Child Development Center and a lifetime of nurturing my own (now grown) child and fur babies, Jared and Marc, I bring patience, empathy, and reliability to every family I work with. My CPR Certification and BBP certifications are always kept completely current. I would love to use my free time to connect with your family—please reach out with any questions!
Hello! My name is Nahia, I just recently graduated from Central Washington University with a degree in Elementary Education and a Minor in Special Education! I have experience working with ages 2-year-olds to 13 years old. I have been babysitting for 6-7 years now. I have reliable transportation and love to take kids to the park, on walks, etc. I also love playing with the kids and doing different activities like playing with toys, drawing, crafts, and more! I am able to tidy up the house if needed as well as prepare snacks or meals for kids. I will be doing student teaching in the Puyallup area starting Sept 1st! I will be available mainly evenings starting at 4pm and anytime on weekends if needed! Working M-F and weekends if planned ahead. My rate is usually $18-25 an hour but can negotiate if needed!
Hi, my name is Betty, and I provide child care, senior care, pet care, and household support services. I am a certified Home Care Aide (HCA) who genuinely enjoys helping others and creating a calm, supportive environment in every home I work in. I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. Over time, I have developed patience, strong communication, and the ability to adapt to each child’s needs and personality. I enjoy keeping children engaged through creative activities, helping with homework, and building routines that make them feel safe and comfortable. I have also volunteered in tutoring since high school, which has strengthened my ability to support children academically while keeping learning enjoyable. In addition to child care, I have experience in senior care through both training and personal caregiving. I have cared for my own grandparents, which taught me the importance of patience, respect, and companionship. I am comfortable assisting with daily tasks, cooking, transportation, and providing a supportive and respectful presence. I also have experience with pet care, including caring for both my own pets and pets belonging to clients. Since the age of 16, I have owned and cared for both cats and dogs, and I am comfortable supporting senior pets as well. I can assist with feeding, walking, companionship, and maintaining a safe and attentive environment for animals. In addition, I offer household support such as cleaning, organizing, running errands, and meal preparation. I am dependable, detail-oriented, and take pride in creating clean, organized, and peaceful spaces. I would describe myself as caring, reliable, and easy to work with. I bring both professionalism and genuine warmth into everything I do, and my goal is always to make families feel supported, comfortable, and confident in my care.
Hello everyone, I'm Alyssa and currently a student studying at UW. I mostly will be available T/Thursday mornings and M/W/F afternoons to evenings due to my school schedule. I do work another part time job at a hospital so my weekends have to be scheduled a month in advance, though sometimes I will have openings! I work best with shy and artistic kids as I used to be one myself. I am great at keeping an eye on kids, but not great with super high energy kids. I don't drive so I will typically show up 30 minutes in advance, and can't really transport the kids anywhere unless you're wanting me to Uber them. I'm great at winding down kids and getting them to bed, and would be willing to clean up your place afterwards if it's an overnight shift and you mention it. Will always make sure the messes the kids make get cleaned up! I have CPR and First Aid Training for adults. Thanks everyone! 😊

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
"Hannah was awesome. Went above & beyond to help me with a last minute emergency. She was really sweet & great with my 16mo old. Highly recommend!!"
