Hello! My name is Maria, I currently work as a teacher assistant for Renton School District. This year, I’m working with kindergarten students! Additionally I have a year of experience in a high school setting. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me :)
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.”
Hello! My name is Victoria. I am a certified elementary teacher with a Masters in Teaching from Seattle University. I have many years of experience working with children ages infant to 5th grade. I am flexible and easy-going. I have Montessori experience and I like to let the children lead the activities with me giving structure and guidance.
“Victoria was wonderful. Our kids loved her and were very sad when she had to go! We’re looking forward to our next babysitting opportunity with her.”
I'm a retired homemaker who has successfully raised three kids in this area. I live with my husband and 2 small dogs in Bellevue. We have three grandchildren under the age of 12, they live locally and we see them frequently! I love kids, people and pets and I like to help. I have many years experience as a parent, and have experience being a grandparent too. I can sit, tutor, play and cook. I enjoy running errands and I take direction well. Kids like me, and I'm good with babies too. In my spare time I enjoy reading, baking, board games, shopping, walking the dogs and babysitting.
“Dina was very professional and great with consoling my 3 week old newborn and spending time with my 3 year old. He really loved talking with her and was sad for her to go. It was so nice to have her help!”
Hi there! My name is Elizabeth and I am offering childcare and pet care services. I am available in the evening or weekends. I am a counselor and have a masters degree in social work from UW. I have 10+ years of experience taking care of children of all ages and abilities! I have experience working at a home daycare, as a full-time nanny, and as a cheer coach. I enjoy caring for infants, toddlers and young children. I enjoy being an aunt to 3 nephews (all under 6 years old). We do activities such as going to the park, arts and crafts, or working on developmental skills- especially for infants. I have 2 small dogs- an 8 year old and a 2 year old. I am okay with caring for most cats, but I have mild allergies to some cats (only those with a lot of fur).
