Please call me Jodi. I love kids of all ages and believe they are unique and special, everyone with something to offer. I raised three kids myself and our house was the neighborhood hub. My three grandkids, who I'm very close to, are grown now. I manage an 80-unit apartment building in Shoreline and live onsite. I love music and reading, including kid stuff, all ages. I don't jump rope anymore, but I can do a mean cat's cradle and anyone who loves to color, I can sit with for hours. I'm all for trips to the park, beach, reading books (out loud or listening to someone practice), nature walks; I'll run into the kiddie pool for a rescue but not willing to swim with the kids. I'm into nutrition but am not militant about yours; willing to cook basic meals but not interested in being a master chef. I do a lot of driving and am ticket/accident-free. I don't mind pets (I have a 6-pound chihuahua mix, Penny Lane, who will be 7 years old in Dec 2026). Light chores like laundry, dishes etc, but kids are my priority. I look after your kids when you're not there; I don't babysit for WFH parents or someone who wants to watch a movie in the next room. Until recently I looked after an 12-year-old girl who is on the spectrum, and I also cared for her older brother for several years (he is now 15 and pretty independent). I've looked after the girl since she was 4 years old. The care included school pick-ups, taking her to therapy and various afterschool classes and on Wednesdays she would spend the afternoon from 1 - 5 with me, usually at my home. She has, sadly, aged out, and will be taking the bus going forward. I will still be seeing these children for "date nights" and the mother is very happy to chat with anyone interested in hiring me. She has already given me a review on UrbanSitter. I am looking for a job that would primarily be after-school pick up, any day of the week. I know there is a call for this and people like me (with excellent references and 100% clean driving record, willing to do partial days, are not easy to find.) I'd love to meet your kiddo/s. Thank you for your time and consideration. Margo (Jodi) Dills

โ€œOver five years ago, I found Jodi (Margo) on Urbansitter. After interviewing her I knew she was a kindred spirit. She has worked steadily for our family helping us with after school care, pick up, and date nights. The kids truly love her and she is the most reliable caregiver I have ever known.โ€

My name is Carolina, and I am 28 years old. Iโ€™m a nanny in the Seattle area, and Iโ€™m looking for occasional babysitting jobs. Kids have always been a huge part of my life, I have two nephews and a younger sister whom I helped raise and absolutely adore. Outside of my family, I have over six years of experience caring for children of all ages. In my free time, I enjoy hiking and exploring nature, as well as reading, cooking, and photography. Iโ€™m happy to drive the kids, I have a valid WA driverโ€™s license and my own car. Iโ€™m also willing to prepare meals. Looking forward to hearing from you!

โ€œCarolina was amazing and jumped right in taking care of our 9.5 month old baby girl!โ€

Hello, Iโ€™m Selene! Ive worked in an elementary and middle school as a para-educator. I thoroughly enjoy working and spending time with kiddos of all ages! Iโ€™ve had experience watching my newborn nephews, as well as watching my little cousins and family friends. So Iโ€™m familiar with all ages ranging from newborns, toddlers, and tweens and always look forward to join them in their adventures! Let me help make your life easier and worry about your kids while you enjoy a stress free much needed break ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป Iโ€™m more familiar watching cats than dogs but am willing to do either :)

โ€œWe had a sitter cancel on us very last minute and Selene came to the rescue! She was wonderful with our 3 small kids (8, 5 and 3). Cant wait to have her babysit again!โ€

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!

โ€œAfomia is a great caregiver, she was wonderful to our 17 month old baby boy. She is professional and has a great sense of people and babies. We will definitely recommend Afomia to anyone who needs help.โ€
