"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Took a break from babysitting but looking for extra income again! I have 9+ years of experience working with kids! I babysat as my main income thru college and was a snowboard instructor for ages 4-7! I love to hangout with kids and I can promise I won’t sit on my phone the whole time like some sitters… I love to play & follow the kids lead in what we do! Happy to answer any questions about myself!!

Hello! Since I used at work at a daycare and have been babysitting for over 10+ years, I have seen it all! I am able to handle sick kids, kids who have mental and physical disabilities, and anything most anything else that might happen while I babysit. I love dogs and cats (I have 2)! Also, I have my tutor certification and am fluent in Amharic. Please contact me if you have any questions! I look forward to working with you!

Hello, I'm Andrea, I'm from Colombia so I Spanish, I love kids, I love spend time with them reading, drawing, dancing, bedtime, singing, outdoor adventures and all that kind of fun activities. I have experience picking up children from school , taking them to extra classes, parks, libraries, playground. My goal is that the children learn a few Spanish words (if that's okay with the parents) I have experience with 0-12 years old kids (anywhere from diaper change, bottle feeding, Spanish classes etc.) I was working for 5 years with a family starting with a baby 5 months until 5 years! They don’t need a nanny anymore but they’re willing to give references. If you have any questions, need more information or need some referrals, please let me know.

Hello families, as my contract is coming to an end soon, I am searching for a new part-time role in the mornings. Availability: 20-30 hours weekly, between 6 AM and 12 PM. A little bit about me: - I have a reliable car. - Clean driving record. - CPR certified. - Non-smoker. - Up to date with all vaccines. - Bilingual (Portuguese and English). - Very outdoorsy. I am enthusiastic, energetic, caring, and patient. I am also very punctual and love pets. North Seattle is preferable, but I’m happy to travel further for the right fit. If you’d like more information, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thank you!
