My name is Evie and I am a student at WWU. In high school, I had the best job at the YMCA for 2 years for elementary age kids. I also have been babysitting for 4 years. I have two bunnies, a hamster, a parakeet, and a fish at home so I am experienced at taking care of many different critters, as well as cats and dogs!

Eduarda $31 per hour for 1 child

Hello Families! My name is Eduarda, and I’m originally from Brazil. I’m currently living in the United States and have experience caring for children of different ages through my au pair journey. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and creating a safe, fun, and caring environment where they feel comfortable and happy. I would describe myself as responsible, patient, energetic, and very loving. I love engaging children with activities like arts and crafts, games, outdoor walks, music, movies, and creative play. I also understand the importance of routines, communication, and making sure parents feel confident and at ease while their children are in my care. Being away from my own family taught me a lot about maturity, adaptability, and empathy, which I bring into my childcare style every day. I always try to build a genuine connection with the families I work with and become someone both parents and children can trust. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping related to the kids, meal/snack preparation, bedtime routines, and keeping children entertained in a positive and attentive way. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and help however I can. Thank you for considering me! I look forward to connecting with you! Best, Eduarda

Booked by 1 family in Medina, WA

I am a child care worker of many years and have extensive experience with ages birth to 11. Mostly I’m a preschool teacher but for a number of years I nannied after hours in exchange for partial rent for three different families. When my child was younger I nannied for an additional three families. I love working with young children, making up silly games with them and doing art experiences with them, and helping them feel competent in their every day tasks! Now my child is in high school and I am free to do some Friday/Saturday babysitting.

Rebecca was very friendly, punctual, and a great human being to hang out with. She helped me organize a lot of my belongings that got shipped to me and break down boxes. I really appreciated her help to get my apartment in order! Thanks Rebecca :)

$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Medina, WA

Hello, my name is Hattie! I am a graduate from Western Washington University and recently moved to the Seattle area. I offer child care, pet care, and housekeeping services. I have five years of experience caring for toddlers and school age children, and two years of experience in infant care. However, I have been a sitter for friends and family now and then for about eight years. I love children and specifically enjoy crafting, cooking, and reading with them. I have past experience giving music lessons and tutoring so I am happy to incorporate that into child care as well! Additionally, I love pets and have extensive experience with dog and cat-sitting. I am able to board them in my home, care for them in your home, and/or do daily visits. I have experience with all breeds, so no pet is out of the question. Finally, I can offer household services, such as cleaning, cooking, laundry, running errands, general house sitting, and yard work!

Hattie was responsive, on time, very professional and great with my kids. She played with them the entire time and kept them entertained. My kids warmed up to her immediately and even my son, who is in a VERY clingy mommy stage (20 months old), stayed with her. She had no problem with both my son and 3 year old daughter.
