$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Seattle, WA

I currently work at a daycare with ages from 4 months-3 years. I also have nannied with ages up to 5. I also have had experience with house sitting and dog watching with multiple dogs at a time.

“Amia was our first non-family babysitter, so we were a little anxious, but she made us feel at ease instantly. She immediately clicked with our daughter and was very tolerant of our crazy dog. Our daughter had a lot of fun and was sad to see her go. We will definitely be using her again!”

I’m Clare, an adaptable professional working part time from home and looking for opportunities to support families in the south Seattle area. I was in high school when my two youngest siblings were born. I learned to care for children from infants to 10+ by being a role model as a sister and babysitting around my neighborhood throughout high school. I have professionally walked dogs and performed home care services since April 2025.

Isabella $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Isabella, and I’m a college student training to become a counselor with a passion for child development and creating a nurturing, fun environment for kids. I have years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with autism, and I make it my priority to ensure every child feels safe, supported, and understood. I love encouraging personal growth and sparking curiosity through creative play and learning. I’m known for being reliable and adaptable, always ready to fit in with your family’s routine. I can drive your kids to the park, school, or after-school activities, and I enjoy cooking, keeping things tidy, and planning fun, meaningful activities. I truly believe that every child deserves a caregiver who sees their unique potential and fosters a loving, engaging environment. I would love the opportunity to bring my enthusiasm and dedication to your family, helping your child feel happy, confident, and cared for every day.

"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)."
