Yelitza $28 per hour for 1 child

✨ Hello, nice to meet you ✨ My name is Mabel and I have over 6 years of experience working with children from 2 months to 14 years old. During this time, I’ve had the joy of supporting their growth, guiding their development, and creating a safe and loving environment for them. I consider myself a responsible, kind, and patient person who always strives to ensure children feel cared for, happy, and encouraged at every stage of their lives. I enjoy planning creative, educational, and fun activities that nurture learning while also giving parents peace of mind. For me, being a nanny is not just a job – it’s a true commitment to each family and to the well-being of their little ones. 💛

Hi, I'm Francis! I am a passionate, career-focused educator offering over 10 years of private nanny experience alongside a decade of professional childcare center experience. I hold an AA in Early Childhood Education and a Specialized Infant and Toddler Certificate from Bellevue College. Additionally, I am fully up to date on all safety, background, and CPR certifications, including Food Handlers and Safe Sleep guidelines. My extensive career spans every age group, allowing me to tailor my care to your family's exact needs: - Infants & Toddlers: I specialize in the Magda Gerber (RIE) philosophy, prioritizing respectful, attentive care that honors a child’s natural pace, emotional expression, and independence. - Preschool & School-Age: I currently serve as a Special Education Para-educator in the Bellevue School District and have previous experience as a Lead Teacher at Bellevue College ELC. I excel at keeping kids active, helping them navigate complex emotions, and building positive habits through gentle but firm boundaries. - Active & Outdoor Fun: I love nature walks and am always excited to take older kids hiking! I thrive on keeping children engaged with the outdoors, exploring local trails, and staying active in a fun, safe environment. - Bonus for Pet Owners: I am an animal lover! I have my own dog, Miko, and am always happy to provide pet sitting or love to your furry family members alongside your children. I love what I do, and I look forward to supporting your family during evenings, weekends, and school breaks!

Booked by 2 families in Medina, WA

I have a long experience working with children all ages. I love being around kids, playing, teaching and having fun with them. I’m a very responsible, caring person that you can depend on me while you’re away.

Lubna did a great job with our daughter, engaging her, redirecting her when needed, and chatting with her. We also appreciated her quick responsiveness and willingness to come at the last minute when we had another sitter cancel. We would definitely recommend her to other families!

Momona 1 review
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Momona. I am a recent graduate from the University of Washington studied Human Centered Design adn Engineering! Some of my hobbies are hiking, swimming, and biking. I love to spend my days enjoying the outdoors with friends or family. I would describe myself to be extroverted, patient, and communicative.

Momona is truly heaven sent, and I don't say that lightly. As a mom of three little ones ages 5, 3, and 2 finding someone I fully trust to care for them has always felt nearly impossible. Thankfully, Momona came along. She is not only incredibly kind and attentive, but she intuitively understands how to care for each of my children in ways that suit their unique personalities and needs. She blends right into the flow of our days: helping my 5-year-old with early learning activities, guiding my imaginative 3-year-old through play, and keeping up with my energetic 2-year-old with endless patience. My kids absolutely love her, they get excited when they know she's coming and talk about her long after she has left. Most importantly, Momona is someone I truly trust. When I leave the house, I do so with complete peace of mind knowing that my children are safe, cared for, and happy in her presence. That kind of trust is priceless. She’s dependable, communicates clearly, and always goes the extra mile. Momona has been a blessing to our home, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for warm, capable, and loving childcare.

Booked by 2 families in Medina, WA

Nanny with many years of varied experience available for one child (age 3+). I genuinely enjoy talking with kids and standing back a little to allow them to grow and bloom. I love reading (same book, ten times in a row!), art and literacy. I would be interested in helping a child where primary language in the home is not English (I have TESOL certificate). Zero interest in screen time, for myself or for the child. I enjoy physical activity and being outdoors. Excellent companion to any child who might benefit from occasional hours of one-on-one attention during periods of transition or overwhelm. Thank you!

"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!"
