Nice to meet you families! My name is Melissa and I have been working as a caregiver for the last 8+ years. I truly enjoy the company of children and nurture their artistic side. A little bit more about me. I have a background on Architecture and Graphic Design. I love art & crafts, and doing these projects with kiddos is fun (except for the mess). I have a lot of experience with kids between 2-8y/o and experience with babies from 3 months-18 months. I’m excited to be part of your crew of back up childcare!!!

“Melissa was great with our 10 month old he was very happy! They played and she helped him with nap time! Thank you Melissa!”

Hi, my name is Helen! I moved to Seattle after high school and completed my college career here. I've worked most of my life with children and I love it. I love how much character their personalities already have and the energy and joy they bring to the table. I've worked personally for families as well as done babysitting for events where childcare is provided; which has given me a chance to watch wide variety of ages. The imagination that children possess is something to behold, nothing is simply ever just a 'toy' but has a whole story to it. That's a little bit about me! I hope to meet you in person soon!

Booked by 5 families in Renton, WA

Hi! I’m Amber and I’m a teacher that’s looking to help out families after school and on weekends! I’m interested in providing childcare, pet care, and/or household services! I’ve been teaching for the last 7 years in public schools. Prior to teaching I worked in childcare running the infant classroom and floating amongst the toddler-age classrooms. I also have experience working with children in special education so I feel very comfortable working with all ages and ability levels! Both my educational and work background almost exclusively revolve around children and have allowed me to develop an excellent set of knowledge and personable skills for working with kids. I feel very comfortable and confident caring for all ages!

“Amber is fantastic. She’s communicative, prompt, and easy to work with. She’s flexible and has tons of practical experience working with children. The kids had a great time with her and want her back soon! ”
