Chloé $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have a lot of experience with children, as I have many young children in my family that I have been looking after since my teenage years. I am therefore used to caring for children of all ages, from 0 to 16 years old. I have also been babysitting for several years, including taking care of infants. I am currently an au pair in Seattle, where I take care of two children aged 2 and 4 on a daily basis. I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy person, and safety is always my top priority when looking after children. Families can feel confident that their children will be well cared for in a safe, attentive, and positive environment. I really enjoy spending time with children and organizing a variety of age-appropriate activities, such as painting, drawing, creative games, and outdoor play whenever possible. I always make sure children feel comfortable, engaged, and happy. Regarding animals, I grew up around dogs (Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Australian Shepherds), so I am very comfortable with them. Dogs are a true passion of mine. I also love cats and many other animals. Finally, if families wish, they are more than welcome to contact my current host family in Seattle for additional reassurance and references.

"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!"
