Booked by 8 families in Federal Way, WA

Hi! I am a college softball player at University of Puget Sound, and I am from Spokane, Wa! For the past 8 years, I have been nannying for the same family at home in Spokane, during the school years and summers. They have three boys, who when I started were aged 1, 3, and 5, and they are now 8, 10, and 12! I also have experience with children as young as 8 months, so I’m comfortable with a variety of ages! I have picked up and dropped off kids at school, done bedtime routines, cooked all meals throughout the day, helped kids with homework, and supervised/driven kids to many after school activities! I also have experience working with a child diagnosed with ADHD and autism. I have helped the family with his outbursts, and give him his medications throughout the day! I love having fun with the kids, but am firm with rules and expectations. I consider myself to be a patient person, especially after working with a child with special needs.

“Olivia did so well with my 11 month old! She was energetic, fun and responsible. Will definitely be rehiring! A+”

Amelia 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

I have been caring for children for most of my life. I have experience with infants, toddlers, middle and high school aged children. Professionally caring for children and adults for 10+ years. I was a Home Care Aide for elderly and adults with disabilities. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Family & Consumer Sciences Education that focused on Child Development and Parenting Strategies. I am currently a full time high school teacher, seeking part-time evening and weekend employment. I am comfortable working with all types of people and families. Great housekeeper, tutor, childcare professional, etc.

“Amelia nurtured a strong relationship with our 2.5 and 4.5 year old (high energy) boys with laughter, educational activities and compassion. She quickly formed a bond with the boys, and hearing the chorus of laughter and thumping little feet running around our living room as we WFH'd gave us complete confidence in Amelia. She's a self-starter who instantly plugged into our little band of goofballs. If you've the opportunity I highly recommend Amelia as a childcare pro with a big heart and big ideas to keep kiddoes engaged and smiling.”

Booked by 1 family in Federal Way, WA

I currently work at a daycare with ages from 4 months-3 years. I also have nannied with ages up to 5. I also have had experience with house sitting and dog watching with multiple dogs at a time.

“Amia was our first non-family babysitter, so we were a little anxious, but she made us feel at ease instantly. She immediately clicked with our daughter and was very tolerant of our crazy dog. Our daughter had a lot of fun and was sad to see her go. We will definitely be using her again!”

"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)."
