Elizabeth Seattle
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have been babysitting and working with children for most of my life, and am at a place where I'm ready to start working for new families again! I have a Masters in Public Health and am finishing up my job running food access programs with the YMCA, where I have been working for the last five years, and am about to go back to school for a nursing degree! I previously have worked as a preschool teacher, before-and after-school childcare provider, and nanny for families with children from infants to teens. For years had families I regularly did date night sitting for, and I looking to get back into that. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, and have taught both gymnastics and swim lessons to all ages. I miss working with kids, and am looking forward to getting back into it! I also have experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats (and love both!), and am happy to provide pet care as well.

Seattle
$33 per hour for 1 child
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."

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)."
