Booked by 41 families in Seattle, WA

I am energetic, friendly, easy-going yet reliable and responsible. Love kids of all ages & they tend to love me. I have current extensive experience caring for children 0-12Y. I add value by being medically trained in pediatrics, being bilingual (English/Russian), engaging kids in fun learning via play and helping around the house (time permitting).

Valerie was prompt and excellent with our son. Would highly recommend to anyone

My name is Miley and I have 9 years of experience working with children in a variety of different settings including traditional daycare, Montessori school, nannying, residential, and after school care settings. I have experience with all age groups aged 0-17, however most of my experience has been with young children ages 0-3. I graduated in December 2025 from Portland State with a bachelors degree in psychology, and am currently attending graduate school at the University of Washington for applied child and adolescent psychology. Right now I’m mostly looking for date night type of gigs while I’m in grad school.

Hi! My name is Alyx and I am a passionate educator and adventure enthusiast originally from Phoenix, Arizona. Currently I’m seeking occasional roles (evenings/weekends) as my schedule allows. My experience: I have over a decade of childcare experience, ranging from occasional babysitting to long-term nannying, newborns to twelve year olds— and I am also a former teacher! I have worked to develop meaningful relationships with the families I care for, and I looove getting to know kids. Their energy and curiosity is so wonderful and I think all adults can learn from young people. Thanks for considering me for your childcare needs ☺️.

Booked by 100 families in Seattle, WA

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!
