"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."

Frances $23 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Frances and I am a creative and fun-loving person who has a lot of experience working with children of all ages in various capacities. I started my childcare journey by helping to raise my little sister who is ten years younger than me and I've continued to grow as a childcare professional through adulthood. I've worked as a camp counselor at the Woodland Park Zoo where I was responsible for many children at once, I've volunteered as a creative writing teacher at an elementary school, and one of my greatest accomplishments is becoming a Certified Behavior Technician and working six months implementing and running treatment plans and therapeutic intervention designed by ABA therapists for children with autism of various ages (ages three to sixteen). I cook and clean, I'm CPR/First Aid certified, I love pets, and I have a safe car and a clean driving record. I am a molecular biology student at UW and I currently work part time as a Phlebotomist with the hopes of attending medical school in the future. I'd love to chat more about your needs and how I can best support your family!
Angie $26 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m an experienced and caring childcare provider with experience caring for children from newborns to school age. I’m CPR certified and enjoy creating fun, safe, and engaging activities for kids. I’m patient, responsible, reliable, and comfortable with routines, meals, bedtime, and keeping children entertained. I truly enjoy helping children learn, play, and feel comfortable and cared for.

$23 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I'm Tracy, a recent graduate and current school health specialist who loves working with families. I grew up helping at my aunt’s childcare center and have been babysitting for 6 years with hands-on experience with children of all ages. I'm CPR certified and have a degree in Health Sciences, so safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I'm a big fan of keeping kids engaged through active play, creative projects, and learning. I can keep them entertained all day! I am also very comfortable taking care of friendly animals of all sizes and breeds. To help your evening or weekend run smoother, I'm happy to help out with household tasks like dishes, light cleanup, laundry, and trash. I look forward to supporting your family!
“My kids loved spending time with Tracy! She was always punctual, easy to communicate with, and kind to my whole family. Her patience, attentiveness, and fun attitude with the kids were clear. She was always prepared with fun activities for the kids and is a fantastic cook. She has worked at multiple schools and has a college degree. I just wish she would move back to Denver, my kids miss her!”
Lola $20 per hour for 1 child
My name is lola i’m 18 years old and i’ve been babysitting for over 10 years now with all different age groups starting from 1-13 years old with boys and girls and people with special needs as well. I’m a super welcoming and inviting person who believes everyone deserves to be loved and cared for.
Alice $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Alice! I have experience with newborns, toddlers, as well as young, school aged children. I approach every family with compassion and the understanding that safety is always a number one priority. Every child is treated with the care that fits their individual needs, whether that means keeping them creatively engaged with a fun activity or providing homework help. I am also available to complete household tasks! My favorite activity to do with the kiddos: storytime and coloring!
