Hi! My name is Monet. I’m 27 years old and originally from Thailand. I am offering child care, senior care, and household support. I have experience working with children of all ages. I worked as a kindergarten and elementary teacher in Thailand for 4 years, and I have spent the last 2 years as an au pair caring for infants and young children. I especially enjoy cooking, doing arts and crafts, and creating age-appropriate developmental activities. I grew up around pets including dogs, cats, and fish so I am very comfortable working in homes with animals. I have also provided senior care for my own grandparents and can assist with cooking, light cleaning, driving to appointments, and daily tasks. I am reliable, patient, and committed to creating a safe and positive environment for the families I work with.

Booked by 11 families in Seattle, WA

Hi! I’m Laura, a 23-year-old caregiver with 5 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to school-age kids. I genuinely love spending time with kids and creating a safe, fun environment where they feel comfortable and happy. I enjoy doing crafts, reading stories, going on walks, and finding activities that keep kids engaged and active. I’m patient, attentive, and always try to match each child’s personality and needs. I’m also a big animal lover (especially dogs!), so I’m very comfortable in homes with pets and happy to help with pet care too. In addition to childcare, I can help with light cleaning, organizing, and running errands to make your day a little easier. I’m reliable, responsible, and always aim to make families feel they can trust me with their home and their kids.

“Laura did a wonderful job taking care of our daughter. Laura was very communicative, helpful, punctual, and professional, and got along really well with our five year old. She got her to take a nap and a bath (two things our daughter isn't super fond of), and she conversed and played well with her. We would highly recommend Laura to other parents, and hope we can have her come back again to take care of our daughter. ”

Booked by 1 family in Seattle, WA

Hi - My name is Tracy and I reside in Bellevue, WA. I am offering child care, and household services. I am searching for something temporary or part-time due too my current enrollment at the Bellevue College. Working with children has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I spent over three years as a preschool teacher, managing my own classroom of approximately 10 children and creating a safe engaging, and nurturing environment for learning and growth. In addition to teaching, I have worked as a private nanny since I was 18 years old and have experience as a summer camp counselor. As the youngest of four siblings and an involved aunt, I've had the opportunity to care for children of all ages, from newborns to preteens. My childcare experience includes school and activity transportation, homework assistance and tutoring, meal preparation, bed time routines, and even working as a travel nanny. I am currently CPR certified and hold a valid Washington State Enhanced Drivers License, allowing me to safely transport children when needed. I also have a Washington State Food Handler's Permit and am trained in proper food safety and meal preparation practices. Beyond childcare, I have experience working as a household assistant and am happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, organization, grocery shopping, errands, and other household tasks that help keep a busy home running smoothly. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, especially hiking or paddle boarding. My perfect day includes a good book, a picnic, and body of water to swim in. I am easy going, dependable, and believe in finding joy in life's small moments. I strive to bring patience, positivity, and reliability to every family I work with. I would love the opportunity to support your family and help make your day-to-day life a little easier.

“Patient, kind, thoughtful and collaborative. My son took to her within 1 minute of meeting! Will definitely work with Tracy again!”

"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)."
