Frances $17 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Ridgefield, WA

Hi! I'm Halo, a senior at Western Washington University, home in Vancouver for the summer. My time as a summer camp counselor has taught me a lot about kids of various ages, and how to manage all sorts of situations. What I love about working with kids is getting to see how they understand the world! It has always been really important to me to understand multiple perspectives, and I think the viewpoint children have is super important. I am also very interested in keeping kids entertained without screens! I love reading, board games, and playing outside, especially if we can work some learning opportunities into that play. Please don't hesitate to reach out for more information! I would also love to work with animals. I have the most experience with dogs and cats, but I am a very quick learner (and willing to do research on my own!).

Nicole $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nicole. I am a Mother to an 8 year old girl and was a early childhood educator before giving birth. I've owned my own successful small business, created after school programs for children and worked as a house cleaner part time as a new mom, before that I did the corporate thing for many years, traveling around the globe. I have a stepson that is special needs who spends the summer with us which has given me experience navigating those dynamics. I have a large skill set having been around various kids & pets my whole life so I enjoy being around animals as well. I currently have 3 cats and 8 chickens and would love to have a mini farm some day. In our home we enjoy gardening, reading, cooking, crafts, science, music and outdoor adventures! I'm comfortable with light elder care as well as I lightly caretake for my Mother who lives with us. Open to kids of all ages and am looking ideally to work with folks around my daughters school schedule and potentially later / evenings, can be flexible. I am also open to occasionally caretaking in my home as I have a clean, safe, fun space for kiddos (art supplies, educational, emotional development, indoor and outdoor activities) I can't wait to hear from you!

Hi, my name is Katie. I’m 25 years old and grew up in a family of 16 from the same parents. As the 6th oldest, I’ve been babysitting and caring for younger siblings for most of my life as well as my 9 nieces and nephews. I grew up in Vancouver, Washington until 2020, when my family moved to Florida. 2 months ago I decided to move back to Vancouver and live with my sister for the church, community, and friendships.

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 17 families in Ridgefield, WA

Hi- My names Mai. I came back from teaching in Tokyo 4 years ago now. I've been working with kids from around 14 which is when I started babysitting and teaching abacus. I've been teaching abacus both in person and online for the past 10+ years but it's fun to watch kids outside an educational environment. I'm fluent in Japanese and English and am always down for outdoor adventures like swimming, biking, berry picking, or just going to the park. But I can always enjoy a good book or movie. I work 8-5 as a PM during the weekday but I’m free outside of those hours if you have a concert or date night. Hopefully, I'm able to offer some assistance to you outside of these hours. you for your understanding and reading this far!

Mai was amazing with our daughter! She showed up on time, communicated well throughout, and had a very calming presence. Our daughter really enjoyed the time with her and my wife and I felt at ease while we were out. Would definitely recommend!

Sophie $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sophie, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable babysitter with over 5 years of paid experience in both babysitting and dog sitting. I’m currently in nursing school, which has strengthened my attention to safety, communication, and caring for others. I’m CPR certified and always prioritize creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for the children I care for. I truly love working with kids and enjoy engaging with them through play, creativity, and everyday routines. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable to each child’s unique needs and personality. I also come from a big dog household. I have three dogs of my own of all sizes, so I’m very comfortable around pets and happy to help in homes with animals. I have my own reliable car and do not smoke or use any substances, ensuring dependable transportation and a healthy, safe environment for the families I work with. Whether it’s keeping kids entertained, helping with routines, or simply being someone children feel comfortable around, I take pride in being a caregiver families can trust and rely on

"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)."
