Trinity $25 per hour for 1 child

Bringing joy and care to children is something I’ve always been passionate about. I have years of hands-on childcare experience in a variety of settings. Growing up, I helped in the nursery at church every weekend, and during my senior year, I volunteered for months at Head Start working with children ages 3–5. I also spent a summer as an overnight camp counselor at a YMCA camp in Maine, caring for and leading activities for kids ages 5–14. I’ve been a nanny for multiple families, including a nanny share for three children (ages 3, 5, and 6), and I also provided full-time care for my younger sister when my mom faced medical challenges. On top of that, I’ve babysat for numerous families, including overnight care. One of my biggest responsibilities was watching about 10 children from multiple families during a Fourth of July event while the parents celebrated—I loved the challenge and made sure everyone had a fun, safe time! I have extensive experience with children of all ages, including infants, thanks to helping raise my little sister. I enjoy creating a fun, nurturing environment through games, crafts, and outdoor play. While I’m not currently CPR certified, I plan to get certified as soon as possible. Reliability, patience, and creativity are what I bring to every job, and I can’t wait to bring my enthusiasm and experience to your family!

I’m Clare, an adaptable professional working part time from home and looking for opportunities to support families in the south Seattle area.

"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)."
