$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 6 families in Mountlake Terrace, WA

Hello! My name is Mihiret, and I am a caring, patient, and responsible caregiver. As a mother of a 3-year-old daughter, I understand the importance of creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for children. I have experience caring for young children, including preparing meals, reading books, playing educational games, helping with daily routines, and keeping children engaged in age-appropriate activities. I am reliable, organized, and enjoy building positive relationships with both children and parents. I am also comfortable helping with light housekeeping, meal preparation, and keeping play areas clean and organized. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care that gives families peace of mind while ensuring their children are happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Mihiret is an exceptional babysitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She took care of our 20-month-old son, arriving right on time and transitioning into his routine seamlessly. Mihiret was completely engaged the entire time—actively playing with him, keeping him happy and entertained, and managing his toddler energy with ease. She clearly understands toddler routines, safety, and age-appropriate activities, making us feel completely at ease while away. Our son took to her immediately, and her communication was fantastic throughout. We will definitely be booking Mihiret again. Any family would be lucky to have her!”

$35 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Mountlake Terrace, WA

Hi! I’m Abi. I have over 10 years of childcare experience with children ranging from infants to teenagers. I’ve worked as a long-term nanny, provided infant care, worked in an elementary school, and tutored students through high school. I have hands-on experience caring for infants, including bottle feeding, introducing solids, diapering, naps and sleep routines, tummy time, developmental play, soothing, and keeping babies engaged with age-appropriate activities. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and following a family’s established routines are during the first year. As children get older, I enjoy planning activities, playing, reading, doing arts and crafts, going on outings, and finding ways to keep them engaged without relying on screens. I’m also comfortable with school drop-offs and pick-ups, meal prep, homework, bath time, and bedtime routines. My professional experience includes working as a Behavioral Specialist in an elementary school, where I supported children with autism, ADHD, developmental differences, and higher behavioral needs. This has made me especially patient and comfortable adapting my approach to each child’s personality, communication style, and needs. I’ve also tutored children from elementary through high school, so I’m happy to help with homework, studying, and keeping kids on track academically. I’m dependable, patient, organized, and comfortable taking initiative while respecting how each family prefers to run their home. My goal is for parents to feel confident that their children are safe, cared for, engaged, and genuinely comfortable with me. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to help with light household tasks related to the children. I would love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family!

“I had a wonderful experience with Abigail! She was professional, punctual, gentle, and incredibly sweet. She was caring and attentive with my child, and I felt comfortable knowing my little one was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her to other families!”

Booked by 1 family in Mountlake Terrace, WA

Hi, My name is Victoria and I'm currently an infant care provider at Bright Horizons. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching and assisting with care for newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 10 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and other extra curricular activities, crafts, and tutoring. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a care provider for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I am allergic to cats mildly but happy to work with families with dogs.

Maya $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Maya (she/her/hers) and I have just started my career towards completing a MLIS. I am offering childcare services (although I do have immense experience with pet-care as well) while I attend online school and need some flexible working hours. Firstly, kids are so fun to be around. Watching them grow into strong, independent, and caring individuals is such a big accomplishment for me. Over the years I have stayed in touch with many families whose children I cared for and are now going into higher eduction (yikes time flies!). About my childcare background: I have worked as a preschool teacher for a total of about two years and have been working with children for over a decade by babysitting and nannying. Some of my responsibilities include, but are not limited to, preparing food, cleaning or tidying home, picking up/dropping off children at sports practices or school as needed, and teaching early developmental skills (fine motor, speech, social emotional). I have an updated CPR Certification for 2025 which includes young children and infants. I have also obtained my Early Childhood Education Professional Development Certification as required for my promotion into a lead teacher. I had been working as an English teacher at a bilingual preschool where I emphasized social emotional skills along with crafts and science experiments and English spelling, writing, and pronunciation. When I was not teaching a lesson I was there to play with and supervise the children as I strive to ensure a safe space for them where they can continue to grow and be happy and healthy. I am also fully vaccinated and have a valid WA driver’s license.

"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)."
