$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Redmond, WA

espectful, active and charismatic person. my native language is Spanish. I have experience with babies, children and adolescents. I have references from previous jobs who would be happy to give references of mine. I like pets, I know more about cats and dogs. I am a math and Spanish tutor. I like that the children I take care of are always active doing activities like painting, coloring, drawing, doing play doh.

“I hired Angie a little over two years ago, when my son was 4 months old and my daughter was 2. She immediately impressed us with her calm, effective communication style and her natural ability to connect with and guide our children. We quickly increased her hours, and she has since supported our family for approximately 16 hours per week over the past two years. Over this time, she has consistently proven herself to be an exceptional caregiver and problem solver—proactive, hardworking, and often one step ahead of what our family needs, frequently resolving challenges before we even notice them. Angie is incredibly capable, deeply reliable, and truly trustworthy. We see her as part of our family and trust her completely.”

Yenethun $30 per hour for 1 child

About Me Hello! I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible caregiver who enjoys helping families and making their lives easier. I offer childcare, senior care, and household assistance, and I take pride in providing a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment. I am also a mother of two children whom I raised on my own. This experience has given me valuable firsthand knowledge of caring for children, managing a household, and supporting their growth and development as a single parent. My children are now grown: one is in college, and the other is in high school. I understand how important it is for parents to find someone they can trust with their children. I am patient, attentive, and committed to making sure children feel safe, happy, and cared for. In addition to childcare, I have experience as a professional driver and can assist with transportation, errands, meal preparation, and household tasks. I also have experience caring for seniors and understand the importance of treating older adults with kindness, dignity, and respect. Whether you need help caring for your children, supporting an older family member, preparing meals, or keeping your household organized, I would be happy to help. My goal is to give families peace of mind by being reliable, compassionate, and helpful.

Julisa $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.

"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!"
