Christy $25 per hour for 1 child

I was born in Vermont as the oldest of five children. I have lived in Seattle for almost 20 years and I am the mom of two. My day job is as a Physician Assistant. I love kids of all ages and as a working mom I’m very familiar with how difficult the process of finding childcare providers can be. I am grateful for the opportunity to provide your family reliable and nurturing care that comes from a lifetime of experience.

Selah $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m 22 years old and was born and raised in the central Seattle area. I’ve been working in childcare for the past four years, and it’s truly something I care deeply about. Supporting children as they learn, grow, and develop their own unique personalities is incredibly rewarding to me. My passion has always been caring for children, and I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they feel comfortable and valued. I love building meaningful connections not only with the kids I care for, but also with their families. I’m excited for the opportunity to get to know you and your family, and I look forward to becoming a trusted and positive part of your lives.

Micah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Micah. I'm currently a freshman at Seattle University. I'm looking for babysitting or part time nanny jobs. I love babysitting, and have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 13 years old. I have spent two summers nannying, where my responsibilities included driving to/from activities, art projects, meal prep, and tutoring. I also love nature and often try to incorporate spending time outside while babysitting and nannying.
