Jennifer $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jennifer, and I’m a special education teacher with 19 years of experience supporting students of all abilities. I’m also the proud mom of an amazing 15-year-old, and I understand how important it is to find someone who is dependable, patient, and genuinely cares about children. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with students from a wide range of backgrounds, including children with special needs, English language learners, and those needing extra academic and emotional support. My experience has helped me develop patience, creativity, and the ability to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and families. As both a teacher and a mom, I know every child is unique. Whether your family needs occasional babysitting, homework help, transportation, or someone to keep your children engaged with games, crafts, reading, or outdoor activities, I’m committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment. I’m reliable, organized, and calm under pressure, and I treat every child with the same kindness, respect, and encouragement that I want for my own. I look forward to helping your family and creating a positive experience for both you and your children!

Sherise $17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m a responsible college student that is looking for a part time job with some cool kids, pups, and cats :). I’ve worked at my mom’s daycare for two years with kids ages 2-7 at the same time, and loved it! I love kids and had even taught my little brother how to read his first book by reading him his favorite story every night until he read along! I was a also a trained life guard with CPR training and was very active in my high school swim team (taught my little brother how to swim too!). I love reading kids their books they bring and watching their favorite shows and movies. Snack and play time are one of my favorite parts of the day, fueling them then getting all their energy out with exercise and fun games. I have experience working in an assisted living home as a dietary aide (and an occasional dog walker to my favorite resident)…preparing and serving food as well as having a food handlers permit. I have plenty experience with cats and dogs (I own two of both!) and am eager to learn your routine with your fur friends!

For many summers I worked as a camp counselor instructing campers in horseback riding, singing, arts & crafts, and more. I hold a BA in English Literature and I am patient, warm, and fun. In the past 4 years I have cared for infants and toddlers during the day and overnight and I welcome working with older children as well. I enjoy helping young people learn, grow new skills, have fun and regulate emotions. I grew up on a farm and I am more than happy to have dogs/cats in the home while caretaking if they are well-mannered. Thanks for your time!

Hi there- my name is Olivia and I’m currently active duty Navy stationed right here in Bremerton I am offering child care for all ages and household services. I love my day job but find myself missing what I had before the navy which was taking care of children. I am no stranger to all ages and I’m very flexible to fit the needs of you as busy families. I am the oldest of 20 children within my immediate family and have been taking care of children as long as I can remember. I am CPR certified, and am very reliable in emergency situations. I also work as a tutor for elementary students weekly. I look forward to meeting you!

Olivia is probably one of the best babysitters you could ever hire! My son loved spending time with her and was so sad when she had to go. We loved Olivia because of her willingness to understand our family values when taking the job so that she could tailor to our family's needs. She took such great care of our son, and gave us so many laughs about the times they shared before she left. We can't wait to hire her again! She honestly is the best!! ❤❤❤❤

Booked by 1 family in Allyn, WA

Hi ! My name Christina, currently offering childcare. Love to take care of and teach kids. I have worked with youth all ages in the Pierce County and King County in education for 10+ years. Makes me happy to also take care of my nieces, nephews, and Godkids 🫶🏼 Additional Services: Light cooking and cleaning 🍽 🧹 Basic American Sign Language and Spanish

Christina has worked with our family since my son was just a baby; he’s almost 7 years old (I also have a 5 year old now). We first became acquainted because she was my colleague in higher education and I learned she also was a nanny/babysitter. During this time, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Christina better and seeing her nurture my children in such a positive way. I believe that she is well qualified and experienced to accept the challenge of any childcare position. When Christina first started, she watched my infant son so that my husband and I could go out on dates. 20 months later, our daughter was born and Christina soon began watching our two children. This meant her responsibilities increased to watching the two children alone, making meals for them, and taking them on short outings to the park, the swimming pool, the mall, etc. Christina is upbeat and positive but also able to set boundaries with the children. Whenever she cares for them they are very excited to see her. I have the utmost confidence in her judgment and maturity and have always felt comfortable leaving my children in her care. I recommend Christina without reservation.
