Anthea $25 per hour for 1 child

I LOVE being with children! Growing up in a huge family, I've always been surrounded by kids, so it's been a pretty easy task to take care of them. I started babysitting when I was 11, and then gradually it turned into a regular thing. I have been a part-time nanny, and now that I'm a full time Esthetician, I pick up babysitting shifts and date nights regularly! I baby-sit at least three times a month. I have watched children from the ages of new born to 11 years of age.

Isadora $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Isadora and I have been working with kids for about 6 years. I’ve spent the last two summers working as a summer camp instructor at Islandwood Day camps on Bainbridge Island and volunteered at a theatre camp when I was in high school. I also babysat on occasion in high school with kids varying in ages 1-12. I love working with kids, doing things like crafts, singing songs, and playing music with them. I also enjoy doing outside activities like going on walks and to local parks. I have also pet-sat for cats and dogs for coworkers and neighbors. I am looking for some extra work outside of my summer camp job. I’m CPR and first aid certified and have reliable access to a car.

Kylie $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I go by Elliot and I use they/them pronouns! I am a nanny who got their start at an early learning school as a lead toddler teacher. I wanted to be able to provide more one on one care and I have since switched to nannying and I am currently training to become a postpartum doula. I love to make arts and crafts with the little ones and I don’t do any screen time. Outside here is so beautiful and I try to spend as much time as possible, walks and just soaks in the great grey overcast skies are my favorite.

Booked by 2 families in Medina, WA

Hello! My name is Kyleigh, and I am currently offering child (or multiple children), cat or household care. I have a BA in international studies, and have been working in education & youth development non-profits for 7(+) years. I have a strong background in lesson & activity planning for school age children. I have cared for up to 4 children on my own for an entire summer, doing outdoor & indoor activities, cooking breakfast/lunch & prioritizing reading/library time as well. I feel comfortable doing basic home care (overnight/vacation, dishes, laundry, vacuum/sweeping, etc). If I seem like a good match for your family, please connect with me!

“Very engaging with kid, and flexible with household chores! Thanks Kyleigh ”

Elizabeth $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello folks! I am Elizabeth and am so excited to meet you! I am happy to offer child care, senior care, and household services. I have a car and am available to help with driving tasks. I have over five years of experience in healthcare. As a float pool nurse, I worked in units all across the age spectrum from adolescent psychiatry to geriatric care. Therefore, I am very comfortable working with children and folks of all ages and abilities. I have my basic and advanced life support licenses and an overall focus on the well-being and joy of those I interact with. Additionally, I have a background in outdoor education. I’ve worked as camp counselor, soccer coach, and as well as a facilitator for team building workshops. I love to be outside and I love to help others explore the world around them in order to discover and grow into themselves. Happy to work with families with dogs, but I am allergic to cats. 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!"
