Booked by 1 family in Seattle, WA

Hi, my name is Tatar. I’m a college student with hands-on experience working in a daycare, where I cared for children ages 0 to 3. I truly enjoy spending time with young children and creating a safe, warm, and engaging environment where they can learn and grow. Through my daycare experience, I’ve developed a patient, caring, and attentive approach to childcare. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities such as educational games, puzzles, reading, arts and crafts, and outdoor play. I’m also comfortable helping with meals, tidying up after the children, and maintaining their daily routines. I understand that every child is different, and I always take the time to learn their personality, needs, and routines. I also value clear communication with parents and am happy to provide regular updates throughout the day. My goal is to be a reliable and caring person you can feel comfortable trusting with your little ones. I would love the opportunity to support your family and make your day a little easier!

I have always had a passion for working with and taking care of children. I am the baby in my family, but it was my biggest joy being able to watch after my 5 younger cousins growing up. I think that is what sparked my interest. I was a youth counselor one summer in grade school, my first job I worked as a tutor for Kumon Learning Center, tutored a family friend's son for over a year, worked as an assistant for special needs children and adults. The start of covid I worked for College, Nannies, & Sitters, and at a preschool with children ages 1-5. During covid I moved to Cle Elum and nannied for a family of 4. When I moved back I worked for another preschool/daycare. I am extremely positive and patient, I am also very attentive and professional. I put the children's needs first, and love to build friendships that leave a lasting impact. I am a great listener and I love to interact. I will teach your children how to be responsible and polite, yet still be their silly, creative selves.

Hi, I’m Laura! I am 18 years old and just graduated from Garfield High School, and am attending UCSB this fall! I’ve always loved looking after kids, and I have a lot of experience babysitting and working with kids. I was a reading coach for elementary school children for 3 years, am a ski instructor at Snoqualmie and teach ages 4-13, and I also have babysat all ages, 1-10. I enjoy caregiving because I love connecting with kids, finding out about their interests and doing fun activities with them, and getting to know new families! I appreciate having familiar families that I get to keep sitting for over the years, and I can’t wait to meet new families!

"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)."
