Find an emergency babysitter in Redmond, WA

Hello, parents!! My name is Marcela — or as the little ones call me, Cela :) I studied psychology in Brazil and spent five years immersed in childcare there before moving to the US, and for almost three years now I've had the joy of caring for two wonderful local families, watching their babies grow from tiny newborns into happy, curious toddlers. I love imaginative play, art and crafts and exploring the world w/ the little ones - parks, libraries, story times. I'm patient, attentive, and genuinely present. I'm a non-smoker, non-drinker, comfortable driving and happy to share references from the families I currently work with. I'd love the chance to meet you and your kiddo! 💛

I thrive on keeping children engaged with the outdoors, exploring local trails, and staying active in a fun, safe environment. - Bonus for Pet Owners: I am an animal lover!
