Sthembiso $20 per hour for 1 child

I am calm, reserved and curious but I become a very bubbly, humorous and goofy person when you get to know me. I am nurturing and very sensitive to my environment, always cautious. I’ve worked at a day care and also as an au pair and would casually take babysitting gigs. I’ve worked with a varying group of ages but I’ve worked mostly with toddlers to preteens. I don’t mind working with pets as well as seniors.

$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Vancouver, WA

Hi, I'm Tracy I am a mother of two thriving young adults and have extensive experience working with children in both personal and professional settings. I enjoy preparing healthy meals and creating enriching opportunities for learning and expression through nature, art, and play. My parenting style is rooted in Adlerian principles, which focus on fostering capable, responsible, and empathetic individuals. Professionally, I have worked with children throughout my career—first as a pediatric nurse and as a family and children’s photographer, now for over two decades, where I combine creativity with a deep respect for childhood and documenting family life. I am CPR and Basic Life Support certified and bring both professional expertise and a caring, thoughtful approach to supporting children and families.

We had the pleasure of having Tracy as a regular part time baby sitter for a little over a month. Our daughter, Fiona, was immediately comfortable with Tracy and rapidly bonded with her. Tracy is a gentle, mindful, and, invested caregiver. We will miss Tracy and we wish her all the best. Please feel free to contact me as a reference, I wholeheartedly recommend Tracy as a caregiver and would be happy to elaborate in person.

"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)."
