Booked by 3 families in Seattle, WA

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. 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.

$23 per hour for 1 child

I bring years of hands-on caregiving experience across multiple areas. I have a dog who is going on 12, and I’ve been dog sitting for years, ensuring pets are fed, walked, played with, and happy. I understand the routines and individual needs that keep animals comfortable and content. When I lived in Washington DC, I worked with a few families caring for children aged 3-10. I made sure the kids stayed in their routines, ate their meals, and had engaging activities throughout the day. I played games with them and read to them before bedtime, creating that calm transition into sleep that parents appreciate. What makes me a great caregiver is my reliability and attention to the small details that matter—whether it’s remembering a dog’s favorite walking route, a child’s bedtime story preferences, or maintaining the structure that helps everyone feel secure. I’m patient, observant, and genuinely enjoy creating a positive environment where both kids and pets can thrive.

She was so great with my kids! She kept them busy, playing, and having fun without just putting them in front of a screen, which I really appreciated. She’s naturally engaging, easy to be around, and you can tell she genuinely enjoys being with kids. My kids were happy, I felt comfortable, and I would absolutely trust her with them again!

Hello! I am a caring, patient, and responsible caregiver with hands-on experience caring for children, including my own infant son. As a parent, I understand the importance of safety, routine, and creating a nurturing environment where children can thrive. At this time, I would need to bring my child with me while providing care, and I am looking for families who are comfortable with that arrangement. I am dependable, attentive, and happy to assist with feeding, playtime, educational activities, and light household tasks. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care while creating a positive experience for all children involved.

"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

"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)."
