Hello, my name is Shelby! I am currently working as a retail manager. I am wanting to get back into babysitting while I go back to school for early childhood education. I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old. Most of my experience has been with children 3-11. I love to get children outside, whether that’s going to the park or playing games in the backyard, anything to get them fresh air and active!

$18 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I am a semi-retired clinical instructor and practitioner in women's health care living in Birch Bay, WA. I am very responsible and clean, and do not smoke anything. I am very physically active, healthy, and do not have drama in my life. I love to landscape, work with plants, organize, and stage places. I am great with animals and people, trustworthy, and reliable for housesitting. Have considerable experience taking care of friends' and family members' homes while they have been away. In particular, I am looking for overnight sitting situations so that I can be away from the community I am living in during construction starting some time in March and lasting several months. I am also available as a patient advocate to support the care of others. I am willing to travel up to 60 miles for sitting multiple nights, and 30 miles for anything else.

I have 15 yrs experience as a personal chef. Over 10 yrs of experience as a house cleaner. Over 5 yrs of experience as a Nanny. I was with a family full time for 5 yrs who had 4 amazing children! I have 3 years of experience as a care giver for seniors. I will be certified by the state soon. As you can see, I love to help people in their homes with the everyday stresses of life. I worked in Seattle as a personal chef/ housekeeper and care giver for 15 years serving the same clients for many years! I am reliable, trustworthy, self motivated, educated and hard working. My approach to child care: I believe children want to be capable, self motivated and cooperative. I believe each child is unique in their verbal, physical, creative and behavioral skills. I take time to learn and listen to each child so I can give them the respect they deserve for who they are what they are interested in and how they prefer to interact. I let the child lead during free play, allowing them the time and space to experiment learn and grow from their experiences during play. I will talk with the child using a variety of words to help with vocabulary. I also give enthusiastic positive reinforcement to behaviors that are wanted to keep the child safe happy and helpful. I enjoy talking about different foods explaining why some foods are good for our health and some foods are not so good. I find that if the child can be part of the meal preparation, they are more likely to be interested in eating the meal. I respect each child’s food likes and dislikes while still introducing new foods knowing children’s foods preferences will change overtime. I keep myself physically and mentally healthy so I can handle the amount of energy it takes to interact with children while also keeping the house under control. I believe in clear communication with parents and the children. My goal is to be helpful. If there is something I am doing wrong I would rather know so I can address the problem. I am also very caring and kind with seniors and I’m skilled in CNA activities. I have experience with seniors with memory care and physical challenges. I look forward to hearing from you and how I can help.

Lori was an amazing nanny to my four kids when they were younger. Goes above and beyond to make sure they engage in activities, art projects, outdoor adventures, and always healthy meals. I also appreciated the home care, helping with dishes, laundry, meal prep. She was a blessing for our 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."

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)."
