Find an emergency babysitter in Medina, WA

Hi all! My name is Margaret (she/they) and I am, by day, a private practice somatic therapist. I received a BS in Psychology and Family Science and minor in Women's Studies. I received my masters in Social Work from UW. I love working with adults & being in the body, but deeply miss the childcare that I was doing before my career. I have around ~15 years of babysitting experience with kids ranged from 9 months - 14 years old. I love the energy kids have and so appreciate their awe and excitement about the world. I value encouragement, curiosity, creativity, communication, autonomy, and mindfulness in my interactions with kids! I strive to be a thoughtful and caring companion and role model, not a detached authoritative figure. I value boundaries and helping kids learn how to hear and say no, along with trusting their own boundaries and choices. Ultimately, I enjoy being in the fluidity of being with kids - I love making art, singing, dancing, being silly with kids; doing the mundane things such as helping structure chores; engaging in emotionally challenging situations and helping build self-assuredness in feeling through emotions. I highly value relational building with kids and their families and appreciate transparent communication, collaboration, trust, accountability, and overall co-creating safety for your child/ren. I would love to chat more with you and your family to see if this would be a good fit for you all.

A little about me: I've been in Seattle for 3 years, I have a bachelor and masters degree and have worked for many prestigious companies including Disney, Paramount, and Expedia and a variety of lovely nonprofits. I have 20 years of childcare experience, starting with my three younger siblings (spanning 2-18 years younger than me) and babysitting for my mom's nurse friends all through high school and college. Even though I've been in the corporate world for the past decade, I've always made time to help out with my friends' kids. Throughout 2025, I have nannied for a variety of families from 6 weeks to 8 years old. I'm 34, married, CPR and first aid certified (renewed this year), have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and am a non-smoker. I'm also super comfortable with pets of any kind. Aside from nannying, i own a successful wedding and event planning business focused on sustainable and inclusive events.

Hi! My name is Chawa, and I absolutely love working with children. I've spent the past year working at a Montessori school with toddlers aged 18 months to 3 years old, and it's been such a rewarding experience. I enjoy getting to know each child's unique personality and creating a safe, fun, and caring environment where they feel comfortable and happy. I also have a few years of babysitting experience with children ranging from 12 months to 8 years old. My responsibilities have included diaper changes, bottle feeding and meals, preparing meals and snacks, engaging children in age-appropriate play and learning activities, reading, helping with nap time, and keeping their spaces clean and organized. I'm CPR, First Aid, and Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) certified, and I always prioritize children's safety while creating a fun, nurturing, and positive environment where they can learn and grow. Families have described me as calm, responsible, and trustworthy. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love encouraging their curiosity through games, crafts, outdoor play, books, and other engaging activities. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, communicating openly with parents, and treating every child with kindness and patience. I'm happy to help with light housekeeping related to the children, meal preparation, homework assistance for older kids, and creating a smooth, stress free experience for the whole family. I look forward to getting to know your family!
