Rebecca 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Startup, WA

Hi my name is Rebecca! I currently nanny for a family in the mornings, I am usually available after 11:30am. I am looking for a family to work with in the afternoons through evenings as well as weekday evening and weekend babysitting opportunities! I have 11+ years of experience working with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, preschoolers, school-age children, and teens. I’ve worked as a teacher in infant–pre-K classrooms and as a nanny for various families. Most recently, I’ve cared for children ages 1–4 and 6–9, with additional infant and teen experience. I love getting on a child’s level and learning through play, exploration, and hands-on experiences. I have experience with Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and Waldorf-inspired approaches and enjoy outings, parks, and activities that encourage discovery. Safety is my top priority. I’m calm, kind, patient, and attentive, with a focus on social-emotional development and age-appropriate boundaries. I have experience with neurodivergent children and adapt my approach to each child’s individual needs. I value open communication and working closely with parents as a team. For positions over one month, I require payroll.

“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in after a last minute cancellation to look after our little one. We’re new to the USA and have only had a sitter once so we were slightly apprehensive but Rebecca put us at ease immediately. She was amazing with our little guy, he was happy and content the entire time - managed the routine amazingly. Will definitely have Rebecca back and recommend her to everyone’! ”

Hi there, My name is Selay. I’m 30 years old and originally from Turkey. Spending time with babies and children is a true passion of mine. It brings me great joy to witness their curiosity as they explore the world around them. Caring for children has always been an important part of my life, not just as a job, but as a natural part of my family life as well. As the eldest child, I took on caregiving responsibilities at a young age. While my parents were working full-time, I was closely involved in caring for my younger sister from the time she was a baby, and I also helped look after many of my cousins. Growing up surrounded by children taught me so much and shaped me in many positive ways. I came to the United States as an Au Pair. I worked with the same family for three years, and during that time I also had the opportunity to work regularly with other families. Through these experiences, I have cared for children of nearly all age groups, including newborns. Over the past five years, I have developed extensive experience providing attentive, nurturing, and safe care for newborn babies during their most delicate and important early stages. With my current family, I began caring for their baby when he was just 1.5 months old, and we have been together throughout his entire growth journey. He is now 2 years old, and as he will soon be starting daycare, I am looking for a new position. My experience with newborns also inspired me to deepen my knowledge through professional training. I have completed birth and postpartum doula training, which strengthened my understanding of newborn care, postpartum support, and the emotional and practical needs of families during the early months. I am also currently completing Montessori teacher training. This has helped me better understand child development, independence, respectful caregiving, and how to create an environment where children can learn and grow at their own pace. Through all of these experiences, I’ve come to realize how fulfilling it is to work with children of all ages. Teaching them while also learning from them is truly a magical experience. If you’re interested, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would love to talk about how I can support your family. Thank you, Selay

“Selay was great - she showed up on time and had great energy with our kids. Our kids enjoyed time with her and she put our kids to bed smoothly so we got to enjoy a quiet home when we came back!”

Hi there! I'm Miss Stephanie. I have been caring for children professionally for 8 years. Children are so special. I love getting to know each child individually. I build relationships from the start and that sets the tone for a strong bond and trust. My style is silly. Kids love it and it's great for our relationship. Who doesn't like to have silly fun, right? I take care of the family as a whole. I help with dishes and laundry. I like to take care as you need. Send me a message. Let's chat

Lily 1 review
$28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am the eldest dayghter, of 6 to be precise :) I have always loved kids, however working in childcare has really deepened my sense of passion in proving a nurturing place for children to flourish. I have been professionally nannying for just under 2 years now and have worked with all ages, ranging from 6 months to 17 years old - all which have left me with wonderful memories and new information. I have an eye for household management, as it was a former career, and I am currently working on a degree in nutrition food and exercise. As I consider myself highly active, I love being in the gym - whether that means natures gym, like the mountains on a hike, or physically lifting weights - and enjoy feeding my body in ways that can support my health and strength. Cooking is my pastime, as well as hanging with my two cats and pup. Puzzles, art, and music are ways I keep busy when my brain needs an extra push :)

“Lily is absolutely incredible. She pours her heart into everything she does and always strives to be the best version of herself. Her kindness and warmth make her such a likable and approachable person, and she has an amazing way of connecting with people. She’s especially wonderful with kids—patient, fun, and full of positive energy. Whether she’s tackling a challenge or just being her sweet self, she shines in every way. Anyone who knows Lily is truly lucky to have her in their life.”

"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)."
