Booked by 18 families in Seattle, WA

Hello beautiful families! My name is Yousra and I’m currently a student at the University of Washington majoring in Geography Information Systems. While I am a full-time student, I love to spend the rest of my time caring for children of all ages! I have a wide variety of experiences starting from the age of 13. I started off watching my younger family members ages 1 - 10 and moving forward, I began caregiving for all ages of children in my neighborhood as well as nearby communities. Once I was in high school, I began tutoring kids ages 6 - 12 in all academic subjects and so forth. Please feel free to let me know if you’d like any additional information regarding my experience with children. In addition to babysitting, I also offer senior care and household services. I’m excited to meet your child along with the rest of your family!

Booked by 27 families in Seattle, WA

Hello! My name is Priscilla and I'm 31 years old. I'm from Brazil, but currently living in Seattle. I have more than 10 years of experience with children ranging 0 - 14 years old. I have worked mostly in nanny share arrangements, with multiple kids. What I love the most about nannying, it’s the long lasting connections I could make with most of them! Each child is unique, and we can learn everyday with them. I'm graduated in Social Communication and I just finished a Masters degree! I am communicative, patient, creative, trustworthy and affectionate. I’d love finding short term contracts. You can check some of my references on my profile. I would love to hear more from you! ☺️

Hello! I’m Jac— a part-time artist with over 15 years of experience working with children. I am passionate about creating a safe and creative environment for kids and pets. I graduated from Seattle University with a bachelors in WGST and am hoping to continue my eduction in carpentry. My work experience includes babysitting, tutoring, teaching art, children’s theatre, dog/ cat sitting, and general household services.

“Jaclyn is great with my picky kids (12 & 15) - they love her! She is wonderful at helping me manage our family schedule and the many responsibilities we have. She can anticipate conflicts with our schedule and communicate with me, all while getting the kids fed and making time to play a game. Highly recommended.”

"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)."
