Booked by 3 families in Sultan, WA

Hi, my name is Alessandra and I’m a Junior at UW offering child care services! I absolutely love working with children and grew up as the oldest in a big family, so caring for kids has always been a natural part of my life. I previously worked as a preschool teacher with children ranging from infants to pre-k, and have all the certifications and training required to work with children in Washington State. I’m energetic, patient, and dependable, and I truly enjoy building connections with kids. I’m comfortable with pets, light household tasks, and helping with homework or activities. I always aim to create a fun, safe, and positive environment!

Professional, experienced, and matches well with my kid’s profile

Booked by 2 families in Sultan, WA

Hi, I’m Valeria — a babysitter and proud mom of two boys, ages 7 and 10, living in Lake Marcel Carnation. I truly understand how important it is to find someone reliable and caring to look after your children — because I’ve been in your shoes. With both personal and professional experience, I bring patience, creativity, and a strong sense of responsibility to every family I work with. I tailor each interaction to your child’s unique personality and needs — from fun, imaginative play to calm bedtime routines. I’ve worked as a teacher’s assistant in elementary schools, which gave me valuable experience supporting children’s learning, routines, and social development in classroom settings. My native language is Spanish, and I’m currently improving my English every day. Being bilingual allows me to connect naturally with Spanish-speaking families and help introduce the language to children in a fun and engaging way. As a mom, I know how valuable it is to feel peace of mind when you’re away. My goal is to provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment where your little ones feel happy and cared for. And if your family has pets — even better! I’m also a trained veterinary assistant with a specialization in pet care, so you can rest assured your furry friends are in good hands too. Let’s connect and see how I can support your family with love, flexibility, and trust. Feel free to reach out anytime — I’d love to meet you! Warmly, Valeria

Engaged our toddler the entire time with play and books. Highly recommend!

Stacie $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Stacie and I am looking forward to meeting you and your family. I am currently an outdoor preschool teacher during the week but I am looking to work some occasional weekends or week night evenings to make a little extra money to help pay some extra bills. I received my teaching degree and a special education degree from Central Washington University many years ago but I continue to put it to good use everyday working with my preschool students. I consider myself a life long learner and I am continually learning new information about early childhood development, plants, cooking, sewing and gardening. My experience working with children spans 25+ years. My introduction to teaching was in high school when I worked at a Montessori Preschool. During my college education at Central Washington University, I worked with developmentally delayed adults who lived in the community and needed 24 hour support. I also lived with a female student who was a paraplegic but could still attend classes and who lived a very active life with the use of her electric wheelchair. My job was to assist her with meals, baths, bathroom breaks and all the little things in between. After college I had a wonderful time being the Education Director at the Boys and Girls Club in Bellevue for two years. After moving to Snohomish my daughter began attending the Snohomish Coop Preschool. I naturally began assisting my daughter’s preschool teacher and eventually was hired to teach due to the teacher getting injured in an accident. After finishing teaching at the Snohomish Coop preschool I was hired on at the Marysville Coop Preschool where I worked 3 years. From there I was hired at the Snohomish School District to teach in the Developmental Preschool program. I spent 3 years with the program and then switched to full time subbing for the Snohomish School District. Once my daughter graduated from the Snohomish School District I decided to try working with older adults living in adult family homes. I worked with a start up company that was hired by the adult family homes to go and provide the residents with music activities and art projects that would be interesting and stimulating for the residents. Eventually, I made my way back to teaching preschool but this time it was out in the forest. As you can see I enjoy working with people of all ages and abilities. There are so many people to meet and so many things to learn!
