Booked by 6 families in Kirkland, WA

Hello! I’m Kimberly and I’ve been using UrbanSitter for 6 years! I began working with kids when I was around 16, starting with the kids of the teachers at my school as well as family members. After that, I helped my aunt often with her home daycare. I have nannied children of all ages. I’ve nannied for the same couple of families for the past 2 years. I enjoy doing activities with the kids and getting to know them. Other than nannying, I love to dance, hike, watch movies, and spend time with family and friends.

She was great and kept up with Our energetic son.

Hi, my name is Kelly. I’m 29 years old, and I’m a dual citizen of Mexico and the United States. I’m a caring, responsible, and family-oriented person who truly enjoys working with children. I would love the opportunity to provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where your children can learn, grow, and explore the world around them. I’m a professional nanny with over 9 years of experience in Seattle, providing exceptional care for children ranging from newborns to 12 years old. Throughout my experience, I have developed strong skills in creating fun and educational activities, supporting children’s routines, and building trusting relationships with both children and families. I’m also comfortable with family travel and have the flexibility to travel internationally due to my dual citizenship. Skills: • Early Childhood Education (ECE) • CPR Certified • Spanish native/fluent speaker • English intermediate level • Valid U.S. Driver’s License My passion for childcare started when I was younger, taking care of my little brothers and cousins in Mexico. Those experiences helped me discover how much I enjoy being around children and supporting their development. I believe every child deserves patience, attention, love, and encouragement to help them grow into happy and confident individuals. My goal is to make every day special for your children by creating a positive, safe, and fun environment where they feel loved and cared for. I want them to end each day with a smile and feel excited for the next adventure we share together. I would be happy to provide 3 or more excellent references upon request. If you would like to know more about me, please feel free to send me a message. I would love the opportunity to meet your family! Thank you so much!

We cannot recommend Kelly highly enough! She has been an invaluable part of our family since our daughter was just 2 months old and stay with us for 2+ years. Transitioning back to work and leaving a young infant is never easy, but Kelly made us feel completely at ease from day one. She is incredibly energetic, cheerful, and brings a wonderful positive energy into our home every single day. It is clear that she truly cares about our daughter, treating her with the utmost care, attentiveness, and love. Our daughter absolutely adores her, and their days together are always filled with laughter and joy. Beyond being an exceptional caregiver for our child, Kelly has been a true pleasure to work with and a wonderful addition to our family dynamic. If you are looking for a nanny who is careful, genuinely loving, and dedicated, Kelly is the absolute best. We recommend her without hesitation!

Booked by 1 family in Kirkland, WA

Hello! My name is Grace and I'm a nanny with 7 years of experience who's worked with kids from newborn to 7-8 years old. I strive to create a safe, patient, and engaging environment for your children through age appropriate activities that encourage growth. I've taken several child development and child psychology courses so I'm well versed on how to support their emotional needs as well. I'm a non-smoker, pet-friendly, and willing to take on light housekeeping and meal preparation. I am certified in CPR/First Aid/AED for Infants, Children, and Adults. I have a brand new car with a valid driver's license and a clean driving record so you can rest assured that I can be reliable and ready any adventure!

Grace was great. She was early. She played with the kids well, and they said they liked her.

"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)."
