Elizabeth $35 per hour for 1 child

Please note: I have over 10 reviews (all 5-stars) on another platform which I can share. (I’m new to this platform.) My goal for the children I care for is that they are excited to see me and know that I have a genuine interest in getting to know them. As someone who studied Early Childhood Development and has 20 years experience, I deeply understand respect must be given to children to receive it back and trust is earned. I make sure every family I work for has peace of mind when their children are in my care. I am punctual and committed to keeping my promises to maintain a smooth flow for everyone. And, I like to have fun with kids; playing games, art, dancing, laughing, etc. Any child I provide long term care for, I attempt to build a relationship with them that positively influences their lives.

Aimee $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Aimee! I'm a practicing Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) and a trilingual caregiver fluent in ASL, Spanish, and English. I have 7+ years of paid childcare experience across WA, DC, and NY, working in daycares, preschools, and private homes. I am originally from Long Island, NY, and relocated to the greater Seattle area in the summer of 2024 (love it here!). I have experience caring for infants (as young as three months old) through school-age children and am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. My style is playful, flexible, and child-led. I enjoy connecting with each child in a way that works best for them and supporting their independence through everyday routines. My background in speech-language pathology helps me bring patience, awareness, and strong communication skills to caregiving. I have a reliable car, am comfortable with pets (proud husky mom), and can assist with light household tasks as needed. I'm currently available for one-time or seasonal daytime gigs!

Booked by 1 family in Seattle, WA

Nurturing children and witnessing their growth has always been a passion of mine. My positive experiences babysitting led me to pursue three years of professional childcare. I hold a graduate degree and am a certified teacher with First Aid Training and CPR Training. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children of all ages (0-12+). I am comfortable caring for up to three children. I am patient, creative, and friendly. I am also very comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, providing regular updates. I am happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. Speaking English, Portuguese, and Spanish allows me to connect with more families. I am eager to bring my skills and enthusiasm to your family and help your children thrive.

“Ana was thankfully available to sit for us last minute and I look forward to hiring her again! She was on time/a few minutes early and very kind and easy to talk to. During her shift, my daughter was already in bed for the night, but I would have no hesitations about having her come during awake time.”

"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)."
