Booked by 1 family in Bainbridge Island, WA

Hello, I am a retired social worker, who has experience raising two adults and two grandchildren. Most recently, I was employed with a family with a 9 year old daughter. I worked three afternoons a week. I would pick her up at school in the unversity district , drive her home to Edmonds. Unless she had after school activity or tutoring, when home I would perpare a snack, look at her homework. At time she needed encouragement to complete her homework, I was able to help her with getting it done before dinner. One or two days a week she attended math toutering, one other days she would have swimming or gymantic. I would wait for her until her activity, and then return her home. Most evening i stays with her until 6 or 7 pm. If her parents were working late, I would prepare her dinner and hang out with her until her parents retiurned. If she was bored we would plays games or watch a parent approved show. At time I would be flexiable and stay later or changes schedules depends on the parents needs. vess she had an activiety she needed to attend. She had several extra the granddaughter full time nanny, from ages 6 months until she was 3. In addition to my life experiences with infants and children, part of my education, was courses in infant mental health and child development. I would like to share my calm, easygoing, nurturing grandmother personality with other families. After years of raising children, while living busy lives, I truly understand the need for a safe,secure and nurturing environment for children best development. In addition, I understand how difficult it can be to raise children, without help..I would love to meet your family and see if I can be an asset to your household I will look forward to hearing from you.

Hi everyone, I’m a fun, reliable babysitter with 3–5 years of experience caring for kids of all ages. I love keeping children engaged with games, crafts, outdoor play, and creative activities. I also have 6 years of experience in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, so I’m confident supporting children with different needs using patience, structure, and positive reinforcement. I’m great at building routines, handling challenging behaviors calmly, and helping kids feel comfortable and understood. I’m responsible, communicative, and always focused on creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment for every child. I’d love to connect with your family!

Hi, my name is Fiona. Im 24 years old, I am looking for something long term and full time/part time. Occasional date nights too:) In previous years I took a class called child development and learned basic early child development course work. While in that class I got the opportunity to work with kids ages 3-6 at my schools preschool, created lessons, and fun activities for them to do. By doing that I am now child development certified. I also have worked a day camp during the summer, in past years, working with grade school aged kids. I started nannying about 5 1/2 years ago, taking care of family friends and so on. I love being around kids and creating fun activities for them to do, such as arts and crafts, like making slime and etc. I also have been a lifeguard in the past and so I am CPR and First Aid certified. I hope to be in consideration and to meet you and your family! :)

Fiona is a very punctual and sweet sitter. She’s very involved and my child loves her.

Caring for others has always been a constant in my life. I grew up babysitting and became involved in mentor programs starting at age 14, which set the foundation for my love of working with children, families, and people of all ages. I have extensive experience with older children and teens through my role as a mentor with Rainier Athletes, where I support high school students with goal-setting, confidence-building, emotional regulation, and navigating everyday challenges. I’m especially comfortable building trust with older kids and being a steady, positive role model. In college, I worked internationally as an au pair in Spain, teaching English and supporting a local family, and later became a live-in nanny in London for a one- and three-year-old. These roles gave me hands-on experience with early childhood routines, developmental milestones, structure, and patience—while also teaching me adaptability, communication, and cultural sensitivity. I also have experience with seniors and caregiving environments. My mother is a hospice caregiver, so I grew up around senior care and understand the importance of compassion, dignity, and attentiveness when supporting older adults. In addition, I am extremely comfortable with pets and home care. I’m a former member of TrustedHousesitters and have traveled internationally caring for homes and animals, managing everything from daily routines and medications to long-term stays. Animals are a joy for me, and I treat every home and pet as if they were my own. Personality-wise, families describe me as: • Warm, calm, and empathetic • Responsible and dependable • Fun, engaging, and emotionally aware • Great at communication and boundaries I’m someone who takes caregiving seriously while still bringing humor, creativity, and genuine care into every role. Whether I’m supporting kids, seniors, or pets, my goal is always the same: to make people feel safe, supported, and truly cared for.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
