Booked by 6 families in Puyallup, WA

Hi there! I like to go by Andy. I am three years into a graduate program in School Psychology and I am well-versed in child development and education. I'm caring, patient, flexible, and I love working with kids! I have combined seven years of experience babysitting, tutoring, and working as a peer mentor for school-aged kids, including neurodivergent youth. I have also been counseling and teaching social-emotional lessons to students through my program. I am working full time at an elementary school this year, but looking for part time summer gigs with kids in the Tacoma area between June-Aug.

Andy was fantastic with our daughter. We appreciated his attention to detail, great communication, and taking the extra effort to tidy up our hectic home. Our kid can’t wait for Andy to come back again.

Carla $26 per hour for 1 child

I am a stay-at-home mom to a 4-year-old and 10-month-old. I have a background in IT Risk & Compliance, Bookkeeping, and Early Child Development. I was hired while in school and hold a Database Analytics certificate but have yet to finish my BA. It is on my list for the future! For now, enjoying the early years with my little ones! With my own kids, I emphasize mannerism and self-sufficiency. Things we love include, library visits, playground time, arts and crafts, baking, visits to the Y, and even mini history lessons— I try to make everyday moments fun and educational. Services I offer: • Babysitting (children) and companion sitting (seniors) (can incorporate Spanish) • Light cooking (simple, easy meals) • Errands • Light cleaning (cleaning products provided by client) A bit more about me: I’m passionate about traveling, music, soccer, going on walks, and trying new activities — especially with my kids. Overall I bring warm and genuine care to every family or client I work with.
