Updated November 2024 Hi, my name is Andi, i am a long time caregiver from being a personal caregiver for folks living with disabilities & seniors to being a mothers helper in the postpartum period. I am also a birth and postpartum doula who has attended 20 births and cared for families outside of the app as a postpartum overnight doula. Outside my caregiving work, I also petsit and housesit as well. my primary work is in the nonprofit sector and I work M-Th 9-5pm either from home or from a Cap Hill office. So available for those long term pet sits. I’m a quick learner, all about efficacy and keeping to the family routine. I really do enjoy a phone call to interview and make sure we are a match. Thank you and I look forward to connecting !
“Thanks for the help Andrea!”
Pet care only: I’ve lived with cats and dogs growing up so I love taking care of them. Currently working for a flexible company so my work hours are flexible.
“Yadi was able to take care of my cat on short notice. It’s been nothing short of a great experience - Yadi is great at communicating and updating me to make sure I felt comfortable! My cat also seemed to really enjoy his time with her 😄”
Hello! I am a student in the honors program at the University of Washington in Seattle. I have my drivers license and I am a very responsible driver. I am very creative and I love reading, playing games, doing art, and singing with the kids I babysit for! I speak English and Spanish and I am learning Mandarin. I have two younger sisters who I love and I have experience babysitting children ages 6 months to 14 years old. I am good at problem solving and hope to create a safe and grounded environment for your children. I like to have fun and I have a lot of energy but I also love to be cozy and chill depending on the needs of every family. I love animals and I have experience dog sitting and cat sitting. Let me know if I sound like a good fit for your family!
I'm Carol, an experienced nanny. I'm 26 years old. I live in Seattle, at the nice neighborhood of Queen Anne. Currently, I take care full-time a lovely 9 months old baby girl, Monday through Friday. I'm available for extra shifts in the evening and night. I also have experience with dog sitting and housesitting. I have a Bachelor's degree from Brazil and recently started studying for an MBA. I love traveling, making new friends, and exploring different places and cultures. I enjoy cooking and love doing crafts. I have extensive experience with children and am passionate about working with them. I have prepared myself well for this career. I am responsible, affectionate, and dedicated. I treat children with love, care, and attention. I'm also very creative when it comes to entertaining kids-we always have fun with age-appropriate activities that support their development. I'm fully vaccinated and certified in First Aid, CPR, and babysitting!
“Carol was diligent, cheerful, helpful, and also well liked by my 4-year-old!”
