Will Seattle
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Will. I have been an after teacher in South Korea for the last ten years and given the nature of theses roles, I have become adept at supervising and caring for school age children. I am responsible, transparent and orderly, but I like to have a fun side too. I also enjoy sharing knowledge with people of all ages about my travels around the world and in particular, my time in South Korea. Before living in South Korea, I was often trusted with looking after the neighbours' dogs or cats, and was available to help with chores people might have: moving, cleaning, gardening, errand running. Therefore, I have shown myself to be a trustworthy and attentive person to help take care of things. If you have any questions or queries, do let me know. Everybody's case is different so I am here to cater for your needs!

Hello, I am a retired social worker, who has experience raising two adults and two grandchildren. Most recently, I was employed with a family with a 9 year old daughter. I worked three afternoons a week. I would pick her up at school in the unversity district , drive her home to Edmonds. Unless she had after school activity or tutoring, when home I would perpare a snack, look at her homework. At time she needed encouragement to complete her homework, I was able to help her with getting it done before dinner. One or two days a week she attended math toutering, one other days she would have swimming or gymantic. I would wait for her until her activity, and then return her home. Most evening i stays with her until 6 or 7 pm. If her parents were working late, I would prepare her dinner and hang out with her until her parents retiurned. If she was bored we would plays games or watch a parent approved show. At time I would be flexiable and stay later or changes schedules depends on the parents needs. vess she had an activiety she needed to attend. She had several extra the granddaughter full time nanny, from ages 6 months until she was 3.

I would like to share my calm, easygoing, nurturing grandmother personality with other families. After years of raising children, while living busy lives, I truly understand the need for a safe,secure and nurturing environment for children best development. In addition, I understand how difficult it can be to raise children, without help..I would love to meet your family and see if I can be an asset to your household I will look forward to hearing from you.

"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)."
