Vince $19 per hour for 1 child

Hey! My name is Vince, I am 19 years old and I am currently in flight school and pursuing a degree in Social Work as well. I am originally from Prescott, Arizona and I moved out to Washington for school. I love to cook and I have a passion for working on cars. I have been babysitting for about 2 years, and I have volunteered at several youth summer camps. I have a dog and a cat at home so pet care is nothing new to me! I am always open to helping out, whether it be hands-on jobs around the house, or running errands!

Tinbit $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Tinbit, and I’m currently offering babysitting and childcare services in the area 🤍 I have over 3 years of experience working as a special needs caregiver in Ethiopia, where I provided dedicated, patient, and personalized care to children. This experience has shaped me to be extremely attentive, understanding, and compassionate in how I care for every child. I also currently serve as a Sunday school teacher (8 months - Present), where I guide and care for children in a structured and supportive environment. In addition, I’ve worked in fast-paced settings assisting with large events, which strengthened my responsibility and organization. I grew up in a large family and attended an international school, so I’m very comfortable with children from all backgrounds and personalities. I truly love being around kids, their honesty, joy, and the way they find happiness in the smallest things is something I deeply value. I’m nurturing, uplifting, and also firm when needed, creating a balanced and positive environment. I strongly believe that childhood is one of the most important stages of life, and I aim to be a trustworthy and positive presence in every child’s life. I am reliable, patient, and committed to making both children and parents feel safe and supported. If you’re looking for a babysitter or nanny, feel free to message me—I would love to connect! 🤍

Samantha $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Samantha and I am currently a student at Georgetown University studying Economics. I am looking for part-time childcare and household support opportunities and I have many years of experience caring for children of different ages through long-term babysitting roles I held throughout middle school and high school. For four years, I babysat for a family with two young children, beginning when their oldest daughter was a toddler and later helping care for her infant younger brother as he grew. I also spent three years caring for another wonderful family with two children, an energetic 8-year-old girl and her younger brother who was 5. Over the years, I became someone both families could consistently rely on to care for their children with patience, attentiveness, and genuine warmth. I truly love working with kids and always tried to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for them. Some of my favorite activities included outdoor play, walks to parks and playgrounds, arts and crafts, reading together, baking and cooking simple meals, movie nights, imaginative games, and helping with homework and bedtime routines. I also regularly prepared meals and snacks, helped keep shared spaces organized, and cared for family pets whenever needed. More than anything, I understand the amount of trust families place in someone caring for their children and I have always taken that responsibility very seriously. I pride myself on being dependable, nurturing, organized, and calm under pressure, and I genuinely value building strong relationships with both children and parents over time. I would love the opportunity to support your family however I can!
