Booked by 10 families in Seattle, WA

Nice to meet you! I am Macaria and I am a college student. I may seem young, but I have worked with kids since I was in 6th grade. I have volunteered and worked in elementary schools with up to 30 kids at a time. And have been watching my 5 siblings since I was 12. [I am also cpr certified.] I love kids and guiding them to the best versions of themselves like a lot of my teachers did when I was growing up. I can cook, clean, run errands, as well as tutor. I am also very comfortable around animals big or small and any species so I am available for that service as well.

Right on time, and a very calming presence for my daughter.

Booked by 3 families in Seattle, WA

OOH TOODLES!! Hello there, I am a local childcare provider with a TON of child care experience. Over the last 13 years I have gained childcare experience ranging from fostering infants to tutoring elementary students, being a nanny, baby sitting, and various other childcare positions (a majority of my experience is with 0-4 years). In my spare time I enjoy traveling, self educating on foreign languages and countries, and creating memories. It is ideal for me to establish with a family who is seeking long term childcare. I am willing to vacation with the family as well as drop off/pick up if age appropriate. I am experienced with light house work for child as well as meal prep and pet friendly. CPR, First aid, blood borne pathogen certified, Valid Driver's license, continuing Early childhood Education credits, experience with sleep training. Availability: Full time shifts Monday - Friday starting as early as 5:00 am ending no later then 5:00 pm (No more then 10 OT hours)

We had a really positive experience with Princess! She helped us out in when we were in a bind with our approaching 5 & 2 year old kiddos. She brings a very calm & positive energy. She came prepared with bubbles and other fun activities for them but asked me what I was okay with before doing anything She kept the kids active and outdoors most of the day which was AMAZING to have them burn off energy. The kids acclimated to her super well & by the time it was time to say goodbye, my son made a comment that he wished she could stay forever (which is not something he’s ever said to any prior sitters we’ve had) She was punctual, and seems to genuinely love children; which our family could feel Look forward to having her back!

$25 per hour for 1 child

Currently working in a preschool as a substitute, I have an open schedule here and there! Overall, I have a background of five years working at summer camps, two years in an after-school program, and extensive babysitting experience. I bring a wealth of knowledge in childcare. I enjoy connecting with children through arts and crafts and am known for my friendly and attentive personality. I’ve worked with children of all ages, including those with special needs, and I’m well-informed about diverse developmental needs, ensuring every child feels safe, respected, and encouraged to express themselves. In addition to my experience with children, I have a strong background in caregiving for adults with special needs, which has deepened my ability to provide patient, compassionate, and attentive care. Additionally, I have experience taking care of pets of all kinds, making me adaptable to any household situation. My goal is always to create a nurturing, enjoyable environment where both children and parents feel confident and comfortable.

Booked by 3 families in Seattle, WA

Hi there! My name is Asma and I can’t wait to work with you. A little about me, I am originally from Ethiopia and eventually made my way to the States in 1998. Since then, I am lucky enough to have birthed 4 beautiful kids here: 3 boys (9, 16, 18) and 1 girl (19)! Aside from the motherhood experience, I’ve worked with seniors and children of all ages for over a decade. I have been employed as an Assistant Teacher at the Goddard School in Snoqualmie, Washington since 2016. At the Goddard School, I have been an assistant teacher to several teachers and have cared for ages newborn to 5, just until they’re headed to Kindergarten. In doing so, my responsibilities included: creating a calm, safe and nurturing environment to meet the physical, emotional and cognitive needs of infants, diaper changing, playing indoor & outdoors, etc. Furthermore, from 2005 to 2010, I was employed as a Home Care Assistance through Chesterfield in Seattle, Washington where I was responsible for caring for several seniors. My responsibilities included: mobility support, assisting with maintaining personal hygiene by bathing, brushing their hair and teeth or applying skincare, etc. I truly love working with seniors and children as they both provide me with a sense of joy and happiness. With each child or senior that I care for, I am committed to providing a safe and comfortable relationship with one another to ensure that they are best cared for. I would love to expand on my experience, if needed. Please feel free to reach out at anytime. Before accepting a booking, please be aware that I am unable to work with dogs and/or cats. Nevertheless, I am so excited to meet you! Additional Info: ⁃ Cleared for TB ⁃ MMR Immunization

"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)."
