Hi!- My name is Hayaat I’m currently a student at University of Washington. I love taking care of children and have babysat many, including babies and toddlers, since I was 14. I have 4+ years of experience with responsibilities that have included in home things like meal prep, feeding children, changing diapers, playing games, and spending time with them. I’m familiar with bedtime and nap routines and can easily adjust to different ones. I also volunteer as a running and reading coach for elementary school students during after school programs. I’ve built a bond with all of my students through my patience, kindness and understanding of different behaviors and personalities. I’m an honest, people-oriented, and responsible person who loves meeting new people! I’m comfortable around all pets as well.
“Very sweet, reliable, and punctual. My daughter had fun playing with her. I would recommend Hayaat to anyone. ”
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!”
I grew up in an in-home childcare that my mother ran for about 12 years. I have four younger siblings as well. I started babysitting at 15 for the neighbors and by the time I was 19 I was doing overnights with a 3 month old baby girl, a two year old and ten year old. It was a lot but we did it! I’ve had a few other families over the years but it’s been some time as I am now a hairstylist and have worked in restaurants for the last 10-13 years. I am currently 37 years old and have my own 10 month old little boy who will be with me most of the time. He’s a very good, smart little guy and loves big kids. He has lots of older cousins he loves to play with. If you’re worried about it being too much for me to handle, please don’t. I am with him all day every day, we like to go outside and do things if you are comfortable with that. I am great with children.
Hello and welcome! My name is Chase, and I am an energetic caregiver with over seven years of experience in youth ministry and a lifelong passion for working with children in various capacities. I’ve had the privilege for over 10 years of babysitting for children of all ages, from newborns to pre-teens, and in a variety of settings, from one-on-one care to larger groups. In addition to my babysitting experience, I’m also a practicing attorney, specializing in estate planning, which allows me to bring a unique perspective on family dynamics and the importance of thoughtful planning for the future. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your children while offering you peace of mind. Whether you're in need of regular care, a special evening out, or extra help during busy times, I’m here to support your family with love and expertise!
Throughout my high school years, I babysat regularly for families around my community! I have experience with babies, toddlers, and elementary school age children. Additionally, I’ve worked with children in professional settings. I worked at Pump It Up, Arena Sports as a soccer coach, and coached cheerleading at a local middle school! I am enthusiastic and positive and love getting to know children and their families!

"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!"
