Rebecca $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Rebecca, and I’m a mama of two. We live in Shoreline. I’m looking to care for 1 or 2 additional children in my home as a way to earn a bit of extra income. We have a warm, family centered environment with lots to offer- toys, a spacious backyard with a swing and slide, and we’re just a few minutes away from Twin Ponds Park. I’m happy to provide meals and snacks but you’re also welcome to pack your child’s food and snacks if you prefer. I’m also comfortable with diaper changes if your little one isn’t potty trained yet. If you’re looking for a loving and caring, home-based setting for your child, I’d love to connect and chat more! 😊

$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Seattle, WA

Hi families. My name is Julieth.I am a Spanish and English teacher. I have been working with my current family for 2 years, but they only need my help during the afternoons. I want to cover my mornings; however, I am open to work after 6pm and occasional weekends. I have had the opportunity to work with children of various ages, from infants to pre-teens. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children, fostering their growth, and creating a positive and fun atmosphere for them to thrive in. It brings me great joy to be a part of their journey and contribute to their overall development. I understand the importance of providing a structured yet flexible routine that aligns with the unique needs and interests of each child. Whether it's organizing stimulating activities, assisting with homework, or preparing nutritious meals, I strive to create an environment that promotes learning, creativity, and emotional well-being. My skill set includes: · Extensive experience in providing compassionate and responsible care for children of all ages. · Proficient in creating and implementing age-appropriate activities to stimulate cognitive, physical, and emotional development. · Excellent understanding of child development stages, including milestones and appropriate behavior management techniques. · Strong communication skills to establish open and honest communication with both children and parents. · Ability to maintain a safe and clean environment, prioritize safety measures, and handle emergency situations calmly and efficiently. · Willingness to help with light household tasks to support the smooth functioning of the household. I would be delighted to have the opportunity to meet with you and your family to discuss how I can contribute to your children's well-being and growth.

“Julieth is a caring, intelligent, and one of the most responsible people that we have had the pleasure of working with. She is energetic and passionate, which makes her a perfect candidate for our toddler and while we we find it hard to manage a toddler and a baby together, it comes pretty natural to her. Adding to this, she figures out her back ups and saves us a bunch of time, when we need someone on short notice.”

Hayat $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Hayat! I’m a caring, patient, and dependable childcare professional with several years of experience supporting children from infancy through school age. I truly enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with both children and families, and creating a safe, nurturing space where kids feel happy, supported, and free to be themselves. I’ve had the joy of working in a variety of settings, including family homes, daycares, youth programs, and behavioral support roles. As a nanny, I cared for a child from 5 months to 3 years old while also supporting an older sibling before and after school and during school breaks. It was so rewarding to be part of their everyday routines and special milestones from first steps to new skills while providing gentle guidance, patience, and lots of encouragement. In daycare settings, I helped create fun and engaging activities for preschoolers, supported early learning, and balanced caring for multiple children while keeping routines structured and positive. My experience as a Behavioral Support Specialist allowed me to support children in building emotional regulation, social skills, and confidence, always using a calm, understanding approach. I’ve also worked as a Youth Advocate, where I planned after-school activities, helped with homework, and created meaningful experiences for children to feel supported and valued. Through my experience providing backup care through Care.com. Allowed me to quickly adapt to new routines, parenting styles, and household expectations while caring for infants and toddlers. This strengthened my flexibility, communication skills, and ability to confidently support children in new environments. I’m trained in CPR, First Aid, Safe Sleep, and more, and I always prioritize safety while keeping days fun, engaging, and full of learning. I also have a reliable car, which allows me to support transportation needs and outings. Families often describe me as warm, reliable, and attentive. I would love to become a positive, supportive presence in your child’s life and a trusted helping hand for your family.

"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)."
