Marian 1 review
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Marian. I am 29 years old. I am currently at school doing a pre nursing program. I am from Colombia, so I speak Spanish! I have a bachelor’s degree as a Spanish teacher. I have been working with kids for over 6 years here in the USA, all ages! I have my own transportation. I considered myself a very responsible and respectful person. I am offering child care, but also I could watch your pet. Thank you for reading me.

Certainly! Here is a positive review you could use: I highly recommend Marian. She took excellent care of my kids, showing great responsibility and kindness. I will definitely be hiring her again soon!"

Hi there! I’m a current pre school teacher and early childhood educator! I’ve been working with kids from all ages from school age to infancy for the past 7 years. I also have experience being a home health aide for people living in their golden years! I love seeing children grow and develop their own skills and unique abilities. I specifically love doing art projects and reading with the kiddos! Some of my hobbies include embroidery, reading and hiking!

Hannah $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I babysat through most of college, primarily ages 18 months to 4 years but up to 9 years. In high school, I occasionally babysat an infant, toddler, and preschooler over the course of about two years. I really enjoy spending time with little ones and getting to help them develop their skills. I currently work as a case manager for foster youth and I'm looking to pick up occasional evening shifts to help me through grad school.

Tanya $15 per hour for 1 child

My name is Tanya, and I am the mother of two (daughter 17 and son 3). I would like to put my name out there for childcare for your little ones. Ideally, your child(ren) could come to my house, but I can also go to yours. I do have my 3 year old little guy who would be there or come with me. I am located in Fairwood Greens community in Renton, WA, and my home is a smoke free and no pets. All of us (except my 3 year old) are fully vaccinated. I can help with date nights, or I am even open to exploring an ongoing thing if there is someone who works nights or weekends and needs help. I know it can be hard to find childcare for those off hours. I have every other Friday off as well so a daytime slot could work there as well. I am happy to go over timing in more detail though. If you are interested and would like to chat more and get to know me beforehand, feel free to message me. We could even meet up at the park for a little meet and greet before you make any decisions. 😊

"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!"
