Hi! My name is Nimco, 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 volunteering at a daycare for a year also I have experience caring for my four younger siblings 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.

$36 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Renton, WA

Hi- My name is Dylan! I enjoy partnering with parents to ensure children receive the nurturing, consistency, care, and fun they need. I am a kid at heart and love to get down on the floor (or up in a play structure) to play with kids, encouraging their imagination, doing age appropriate science and art projects, adventuring outdoors, and facilitating their brain development through play, reading, and singing. It is important to me to model empathy, respect, and acceptance with the goal of empowering children to solve problems. Additionally, I am very skilled at multi-tasking and time management to ensure the safety and well being of all children in my care. Biggest strength: I give kids the attention they deserve! I am regularly referred to by parents as the 'kid whisperer' or 'Pied Piper.' While some believe I have magical powers (especially toddlers!), in truth, I am simply present and attuned to their needs and wants, through the laughter and tears. Experience: I have over 15 years experience as a babysitter and nanny for children birth to 12 years, providing care for up to 5 children at a time in the family's home and traveling. Including extensive 24/7 care for parent work/fun trips, Philosophy: I feel strongly about following the family's routine and general style of parenting for consistency and a sense of safety for your kid(s). With that said, I engage a gentle parenting style and natural consequences rather than punishment, do not engage kids with screens (with minor exceptions), and love to help tidy, if you are open. Specifics: I have experience as a newborn night nanny, birth and postpartum doula. I have worked with single parent, blended, multiracial & LGBTQ+ families. I have worked with preemies, newborns, twins, neurodivergence (ADD/ADHD, autism, OCD), food allergies/special diets, and trauma (medical, bullying, and DV). Neurodivergence Experience: Nonverbal (with and without comm boards), toileting, care/support during meltdowns, sensory seeking, special food prep. Animals: I love them! Happy to pet, potty, and feed your fur family as well. Or ignore, in the case of an aloof kitty :-) Education: BA: Leadership & Human Services Antioch U - Seattle (2014) Infant/Child CPR/First Aid - 12/25 Newborn Care Specialist Certificate - 12/25 Work History: 10+ years in social work directly supporting homeless youth, mental illness and SUD in homeless adults, and medically fragile individuals. Happy to share ample glowing references!

Dylan is wonderfully responsive and responsible and amazingly kind. He worked as night support for us with three babies in the house. We slept! Dylan also watched our very challenging 9 year old. We are so grateful for Dylan and how he relates to babies and young children. We would absolutely hire again!

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 10 families in Renton, WA

Hi! I’m Laura, a 23-year-old caregiver with 5 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to school-age kids. I genuinely love spending time with kids and creating a safe, fun environment where they feel comfortable and happy. I enjoy doing crafts, reading stories, going on walks, and finding activities that keep kids engaged and active. I’m patient, attentive, and always try to match each child’s personality and needs. I’m also a big animal lover (especially dogs!), so I’m very comfortable in homes with pets and happy to help with pet care too. In addition to childcare, I can help with light cleaning, organizing, and running errands to make your day a little easier. I’m reliable, responsible, and always aim to make families feel they can trust me with their home and their kids.

Laura did a wonderful job taking care of our daughter. Laura was very communicative, helpful, punctual, and professional, and got along really well with our five year old. She got her to take a nap and a bath (two things our daughter isn't super fond of), and she conversed and played well with her. We would highly recommend Laura to other parents, and hope we can have her come back again to take care of our daughter.

"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)."
