Kiss'Shonna $35 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kiss'Shonna and I am seeking a full time caretaking position for children, pets and/or households. I am a well rounded individual that has had extensive experience in taking care of children in both academic and recreational settings, along with professional pet and house sitting through Trusted House Sitters (happy to provide reviews from previous sits). I have worked as a nanny before and have cared for families with up to five kids. I have a Masters Degree in Counseling Studies and completed a semester's worth of school counseling services to students from Kindergarten to fifth grade. I was also a Mutli Tier Systems of Support paraeducator for high school students. I currently work as a paralegal and would like to find a long term position that allows me to engage in my natural skill sets of providing a nurturing environment for kids, pets, and their families. I value play based learning, transparency and communication, and a balance of flexibility and routine. I am a responsive and engaged caregiver who seeks to enhance your pre-existing routines and flow rather than disrupting it. I understand that young kids especially benefit from following a predictable routine. I am a great cook and know how to prepare meals for different dietary needs and can perform housekeeping duties such as laundry, dish-washing, and general tidying. If I sound like a good fit, I would love to hear from you!

$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Federal Way, WA

I personally have a seven and a half year old. They have some special needs so I was a stay at home mom for 5 years. For the last year and a half I was working with infants 0-3 month olds. My place of business closed and I am looking forward to getting to know more age groups and age gaps. I have been a sitter for kids, cats, dogs, fish, snakes, lizards, and yes, some bug types. I enjoy the curiosity and stages of mental and physical growth with kids. My strengths are commination and structure. I like to know the schedules and needs of everybody so I can be the most successful help.

"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."

"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)."
