Booked by 2 families in Redmond, WA

Available evenings, overnights, and last-minute requests, every day after 5:00 PM Hi there! I'm a Seattle-based college student in my final year, living in Bellevue looking for evening and overnight babysitting opportunities. Experience: - 9+ years of childcare experience, starting with my niece at age 1 (she's 10 now!) - Long-term care for two brothers, watched since they were 2 and 4 (now 5 and 7) - Cared for two professors' families, with kids ages 2-4, including managing two children at once - Comfortable with kids ages 1 and above individually or in groups Pet-Friendly: Grew up with two dogs and I'm comfortable around dogs, cats, fish, turtles, and parrots - your furry (or scaly!) family members are in good hands too. Beyond Childcare: I'm happy to help with light housework while I'm there - things like tidying up toys and play areas, washing bottles or dishes, folding laundry, or wiping down kitchen surfaces. I like leaving things a little tidier than I found them so you come home to one less thing on your plate. :) What I Offer - Reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids - Homework help, bedtime routines, and keeping things fun and calm - Comfortable pitching in with light chores when needed - Flexible for last-minute and overnight requests Feel free to reach out anytime to chat more or set up a meet-and-greet! :)

Gergana was great with our 19 month old son. He had a great time with her and Gergana was punctual and accommodating. We will definitely be using her services again and recommend her to other families looking for help.

Hi, I’m Valeria — a babysitter and proud mom of two boys, ages 7 and 10, living in Lake Marcel Carnation. I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and caring to look after your children — because I’ve been in your shoes. With both personal and professional experience, I bring patience, creativity, and a strong sense of responsibility to every family I work with. I tailor each interaction to your child’s unique personality and needs — from fun, imaginative play to calm bedtime routines. I’ve worked as a teacher’s assistant in elementary schools, which gave me valuable experience supporting children’s learning, routines, and social development in classroom settings. My native language is Spanish, and I’m currently improving my English every day. Being bilingual allows me to connect naturally with Spanish-speaking families and help introduce the language to children in a fun and engaging way. As a mom, I know how valuable it is to feel peace of mind when you’re away. My goal is to provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment where your little ones feel happy and cared for. And if your family has pets — even better! I’m also a trained veterinary assistant with a specialization in pet care, so you can rest assured your furry friends are in good hands too. Let’s connect and see how I can support your family with love, flexibility, and trust. Feel free to reach out anytime — I’d love to meet you! Warmly, Valeria

Engaged our toddler the entire time with play and books. Highly recommend!

Looking for a family to work with Hello seattle families. I’m Laura from Colombia, I was an aupair but now a I’m a nanny, I have 6 years of experience with babies (from 6 to 10 months) and kids (from 2 to 7 year old) I have my driver license and my own car. I’m happy to provide you references and more information I’m looking for some extra hours happy to provide my resume.

Laura has been a nanny for our two children (a 5-year old girl and a 22-month old boy) for over a year. Laura has predominantly helped our family with the morning duties related to both of our children (helping them to wake up, feeding them breakfast, getting them cleaned/dressed for the day, preparing snacks/lunch and driving our daughter to pre-school). She is an extremely reliable caretaker for our children, making safety and boundaries a priority while keeping it fun for each of them. The kids each love her and looking forward to their time with her every day. Laura is great at giving each kid age and developmentally-approritate activities to enjoy. And she is extremely supportive of the childrens' emotional needs. Laura does a great job of balancing each child's hectic morning schedule and tasks, is reliable/on-time, communicative with us and adaptable when we have new or adjusted requests/schedules. We would recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, responsible caretaker for their child or children.
