Dear Families, I am pleased to introduce myself as Berry. I have a passion for spending time with children and have gained experience babysitting my cousins for the past three years. Additionally, I have worked in a daycare for an extended period, which has equipped me with the necessary skills to take care of your child. I am also willing to provide household services to ensure that your family's needs are met. My love for kids motivates me to pursue this job, as I believe that being a part of a child's growth and development is a rewarding experience. With my experience ranging from infants as young as 3 months old to children as old as 9 years, I am confident in my ability to provide quality care. I am a patient and caring individual who is passionate about learning and sharing my knowledge with others, especially when it comes to helping kids grow and develop. Furthermore, I am comfortable with pets, and I am fully vaccinated, ensuring that I am equipped to provide a safe and healthy environment for your child. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your family.

“Berry was amazing and did a very good job watching our 4 year old. She played with him, engaged with educational activities, and cleaned up when she was done for the day. She took him outside for fresh air and made him fresh lunch. Overall, she met and exceed our expectations while we worked from home. I look forward to another day when we need backup care so we could request Berry again!”

Booked by 35 families in Kirkland, WA

Hello, I'm Sumeya, a student with a deep passion for working with children. My long-term goal is to become a pediatrician, and in the meantime, I am gaining hands-on experience as a caregiver. Last year, I worked with Amicable Healthcare as a full-time caregiver for two families and have also assisted children with disabilities. Through these experiences, including caring for infants, I've developed a genuine love for nurturing children in a safe, engaging environment. I am an energetic, physically active person with a strong interest in sports like soccer, basketball, and biking. Although I have a slight phobia of dogs, I’m actively working on overcoming it and I’m open to working in homes with dogs. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable with housework and running errands. I hold a valid first aid and CPR certification, ensuring I can respond appropriately in emergency situations. My love for children extends beyond basic care—I also enjoy teaching them creative activities like painting and engaging in outdoor adventures. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of children while creating a positive and nurturing environment.

"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."

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)."
