Hi! I'm Kimberly and currently live in Seattle. I have worked with kids for over 17 years and absolutely love it. I have been a babysitter, nanny, lead summer camp teacher, and a household manager. I have experience with all ages and am extremely reliable. I’m happy to also help with household tasks.
Please call me Jodi. I love kids of all ages and believe they are unique and special, everyone with something to offer. I raised three kids myself and our house was the neighborhood hub. My three grandkids, who I'm very close to, are grown now. I manage an 80-unit apartment building in Shoreline and live onsite. I love music and reading, including kid stuff, all ages. I don't jump rope anymore, but I can do a mean cat's cradle and anyone who loves to color, I can sit with for hours. I'm all for trips to the park, beach, reading books (out loud or listening to someone practice), nature walks; I'll run into the kiddie pool for a rescue but not willing to swim with the kids. I'm into nutrition but am not militant about yours; willing to cook basic meals but not interested in being a master chef. I do a lot of driving and am ticket/accident-free. I don't mind pets (I have a 6-pound chihuahua mix, Penny Lane, who will be 7 years old in Dec 2026). Light chores like laundry, dishes etc, but kids are my priority. I look after your kids when you're not there; I don't babysit for WFH parents or someone who wants to watch a movie in the next room. Until recently I looked after an 12-year-old girl who is on the spectrum, and I also cared for her older brother for several years (he is now 15 and pretty independent). I've looked after the girl since she was 4 years old. The care included school pick-ups, taking her to therapy and various afterschool classes and on Wednesdays she would spend the afternoon from 1 - 5 with me, usually at my home. She has, sadly, aged out, and will be taking the bus going forward. I will still be seeing these children for "date nights" and the mother is very happy to chat with anyone interested in hiring me. She has already given me a review on UrbanSitter. I am looking for a job that would primarily be after-school pick up, any day of the week. I know there is a call for this and people like me (with excellent references and 100% clean driving record, willing to do partial days, are not easy to find.) I'd love to meet your kiddo/s. Thank you for your time and consideration. Margo (Jodi) Dills
“Over five years ago, I found Jodi (Margo) on Urbansitter. After interviewing her I knew she was a kindred spirit. She has worked steadily for our family helping us with after school care, pick up, and date nights. The kids truly love her and she is the most reliable caregiver I have ever known.”
Hi, My name is Alicia! I've been babysitting for 10 years now and it never feels like work to me because it's always fun! I've babysat kids in all different age groups, from 8 months to 10 years old. My favorite things to do while babysitting are going to the park, coloring, reading books, playing outside games, like tag. Pretty much anything to stay active and have fun.
Hello, Families! I recently legally changed my name to Kai, but Elisabeth/Beth was my name prior. I’ll happy to send proof of name change if needed! I'm a career nanny with over 15 years of nanny experience. I am also a newborn care specialist, birth doula, and postpartum doula. Though I am a US citizen, I was born and raised in Indonesia and speak fluent Indonesian as well as English. I am fully vaccinated, have a reliable car, clean driving record, and am CPR/First Aid/AED Certified for infants, children, and adults. I enjoy caring for children of all ages, but the bulk of my experience has been in the newborn to 5 year old range. I love getting children outdoors, helping facilitate art projects, listening to music, having dance parties, and also reading with children. I also love board games, having tea parties, and going on neighborhood adventures or outings to the zoo or aquarium. I currently work as a full-time nanny and am unavailable for full-time care, but I am available most weekday mornings before 9am as well as most weeknights after 5:30pm. I am also often available on weekends. ***I do not provide care for sick children, as I do not want to run the risk of my regular nanny family getting sick.*** I have a 4 hour or $120 minimum for bookings and am happy to be paid through Urbansitter, in cash, or through Venmo. I'm happy to do overnights and charge a flat rate of $175 for the hours between 10pm and 6am and my hourly rate for any additional hours. The exception for this would be infants under 12 months old, for which I charge my hourly rate through the night. Please feel free to message me if you have any additional questions. Thank you for your interest in booking with me!
“Kai was very sweet and patient with my three month old!”
I have been a nanny for over 12 years and about 8 years ago I transitioned into the corporate world. I am missing all the silly times with my little people and would like some occasional jobs to keep me engaged and having fun! I have a ton of energy and can keep up with any child or large families. I love animals as well! I have had quite a few cooking jobs and I don't sit very well for too long. So, if a baby is sleeping... I am cleaning or prepping food :) My minimum is 4 hours of work, so if you come home early, I still get paid for 4 hours. Thank you.
“Tiffany is extremely warm, energetic and professional and clearly very experienced! She is one of the first babysitters we've used as first-time parents and we felt at-ease almost right away.”
