Gillian $28 per hour for 1 child

I am a passionate care provider. I bring this passion with me to every job that I do. I am creative, and fun, but also bring balance, and stability. I love working with children in a variety of settings. I have had the privilege of working with the same families for over ten years. I have also worked with children on the autism spectrum, and other special needs. Most of all, parents can trust me with their children. This is of upmost importance when choosing a care provider.

Maryam $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Maryam and I have been working with kids for the last 7 years. Childcare is something that I care so much about and put my whole heart into. My previous jobs have been an Education Director at the Boys and Girls Club, a youth development professional for before and after school care, an educator, a tutor, and a swim instructor. I'm also certified in First Aid and CPR, fully vaccinated, and passionate about making sure that all of the kids I work with are cared for and happy :) As the middle child of six siblings, l've grown up knowing how important family is, and my natural warmth and responsibility shine through in everything I do. I'm currently pursuing my college education, mostly online, which helps me have a more flexible schedule. So! If you're looking for a babysitter who's fun, friendly, empathetic, dependable, and experienced, then l'd love to meet you and your kiddos!

Booked by 1 family in Indianola, WA

Hi! I’m Yasmin and have been babysitting and nannying for over 20 years. I would describe myself as extremely outgoing, fun and bubbly! I am an avid traveler and have traveled to over 30 countries! I am fluent in Arabic and went to boarding school in Amman, Jordan. I have a huge family with over 60 cousins, nephews and nieces. I love kids and did my first year of university in Education. I did receive honors and after graduation I went on and received my certification in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). I am now doing a masters program and am looking to babysit part time. Both my parents are chefs/baker so I love to cook and feed nutritious meals to your kids. I’m clean, reliable and honest. I’m excited to connect, learn and help your family! Thank you!!

Booked by 1 family in Indianola, WA

Hi - I’m Joey - I'm 61 and full of energy! I am offering child care and household services. Also- special event services/catering, party help. I'm semi-retired, after some amazing careers (from clothing design, baby boutique owner, event planning to catering)- and now I'm focusing on my art and working part time at a few of my interests. I spend a lot of time in nature walking and hiking with my dog Blue- rain or shine. (Also, spend a lot of time at Pickleball!) I love babies and kids- I'm a very patient, helpful, friendly person and love meeting new people. My adult daughters always tell me that I should be a caregiver/babysitter/nanny. I'm happy to help with homework, reading, doing crafts, going for walks etc. My baby/child care started very early- When I was 10 my mom had #5 and basically handed her over. We are very close now still. I can cook, clean, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I have helped my 81 year mother quite a bit and am comfortable with senior care. I have always had dogs and cats and am happy to take care of those as well! I have current CPR and First Aid certificates. Love to meet in person! Joey

Joey helped us out on very short notice. I really appreciated her flexibly, since I hadn't had time to really make plans. She got along great with our toddler and was warm, attentive, and professional.

Cheri $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Cheri and I have cared for preemie babies to grade school age. My daughter had quintuplets so I had the unique experience of caring for all ages and many kids at the same time. I love reading to children and playing games with them or just listening to what they have to say. I love to take walks with children and point out wild flowers and birds and squirrels. I have a corgi and walk him on the Clear Creek trail often and if parents would like me to walk with their kids at Clear Creek it is an amazing safe and interesting place for kids. I also am willing to assist with household stuff and running errands. I love cats and dogs so I’m open to feeding or taking walks with pets. My last job was working with people with special needs in a work environment. During that time I worked with young people with autism and Down syndrome. I’m seeking part-time hours and would be available to care for families in Silverdale, Poulsbo and Bremerton.
