Booked by 5 families in Kirkland, WA

I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person. I have over two years of experience as a preschool teacher, where I worked with children in early childhood education, helping them learn, play, and grow in a safe environment. I also have my STARS hours completed and I am CPR certified and First Aid certified for children, which gives parents peace of mind that safety is always my priority. Beyond my certifications, I truly enjoy working with kids, supporting their development, and creating fun, engaging activities that are also educational. Families can rely on me to be organized, attentive, and nurturing.

Hello! I'm a friendly and reliable multilingual babysitter and caregiver, fluent in both conversational French and Italian, with a strong background in early childhood education (12+ years). As a Montessori-trained Kindergarten teacher, I have a deep understanding of child development and a passion for fostering a nurturing and engaging environment for children to thrive in. I have experience caring for multiple children at a time (recently caring intermittently 6 children from one family with age ranging from 2years to 13 years) as well as toddlers and infants (from 5months). Also I have experience with neurodivergent children with special needs and have a preference to caring for them. I am a compassionate certified caregiver for Seniors, dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for seniors, specializing in memory care and comprehensive support for various senior-related needs. I am trustworthy, patient, and trained to provide compassionate assistance tailored to individual requirements. Let me help your loved ones live comfortably and with dignity. I am also certified in CPR for both adults and children through the Red Cross, so you can feel at ease knowing your loved ones are in safe hands. I am always happy to help with light housework and can run errands if needed, ensuring your household runs smoothly. Plus, I own a 2019 Honda Passport, making it easy for me to assist with transportation if required. My hobbies include, crocheting, needlework, puzzles and reading; I am also a strong swimmer (certified diver) and enjoy roller blading... With my diverse skills and caring nature, I'm excited to offer support in a way that feels both reassuring and convenient for your family! Looking forward to meeting you soon.... Best Wishes, O.

Hi! My name is Yusra, and I’m a friendly, reliable, and caring person who truly enjoys helping others. As the oldest daughter in my family, I’ve had years of experience caring for my two younger sisters and supporting my family with everyday tasks. I’m great with kids and love spending time with them—whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or just being someone they can trust and have fun with. I’m always willing to help and bring a positive attitude to any situation. I work well with families, and my goal is to make life easier and more enjoyable for everyone around me.

She was great, on time, patient, flexible with my son’s specific needs. Super easy to get along with.

Hi my name is Paula I am an Irish Primary school teacher (elementary teacher) I have my Honors Bachleors Degree in Early Childcare and Education where I’m an Early childcare practitioner along with my Masters of Education where I have been Primary teaching (Elementary and Middle school) for the last 5 years in Ireland I absolutely love what I do. I was also a preschool (daycare) and after school teacher for 2 years in Ireland before I became a Primary Teacher. I have years of experience working with all age groups of children I love what I do, my favourite things to do are singing, acting, music,and art with the children, go for walks to the park, creativity is so important for little ones to learn and develop. I have my child care protection and CPR certificates both from Ireland and from America and my garda vetting. In January 2012 I moved to San Francisco where I had the pleasure to be a nanny for 2 and half year old twins for a beautiful family from 2012 to 2013 then I was a full time nanny working with another amazing family and three beautiful children from December 2012 until August 2015 during this time at weekends I would also do some babysitting on ‘Urbansitter’ and I loved the families I got to know through this app. Then at the end of August I decided to move home and become a teacher. I now have moved to Seattle with my husband and I am hoping to find some babysitting work here and teach also. My past experience consists of fundraising for children in South Africa. I did volunteer work in August, 2009 and setup fundraisers and raised 6,000 Euros for the children. If you would like to know more about me message me, thanks for reading this Paula. Unfortunately I am very allergic to hair on animals so I cant be around dogs and cats in the same room which is really unfortunate as I love animals too.

Paula helped us out when we had a last minute need - she was terrific and put my mind at ease immediately. Patient, caring and a lot of fun, our one year old had a great day with Paula - she even sent us photos throughout the day. Would highly recommend!

"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)."
