Julisa Seattle
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Julisa, a senior at the University of Washington offering dependable child care, pet care, and light household support in the Seattle area. I’ve cared for children ages 6 months to early teens since I was 16, bringing a mix of energy, patience, and creativity to each job—whether it’s playtime, homework help, or school pickups. I have a safe, reliable car and am comfortable driving kids to activities, appointments, or wherever they need to go. I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve worked with reactive dogs and have hands-on experience with puppy training as well. I grew up with two cats and now have a dog named Orion, who’s back home in California with my family. Alongside child and pet care, I’m happy to help with light cooking, tidying up, errands, or anything else that keeps your home running smoothly.

Booked by 2 families in Mountlake Terrace, WA

With over 10 years of experience in early childhood education, I have dedicated my career to fostering the development of young children. I have a strong background in creating engaging educational content and books, with over 5 years in content development tailored for infants and toddlers. Additionally, I have spent more than 3 years training fellow educators in play-based learning techniques, emphasizing the importance of interactive and nurturing environments. My comprehensive expertise equips me to provide exceptional care and educational support as a nanny, ensuring each child's growth and happiness.

We are so happy we met Soyeon. She was so engaged while playing with our kiddo. She offered new games and gave us a nice book as a memory. Thanks Soyeon:)
