Chawa $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Chawa, and I absolutely love working with children. I've spent the past year working at a Montessori school with toddlers aged 18 months to 3 years old, and it's been such a rewarding experience. I enjoy getting to know each child's unique personality and creating a safe, fun, and caring environment where they feel comfortable and happy. I also have a few years of babysitting experience with children ranging from 12 months to 8 years old. My responsibilities have included diaper changes, bottle feeding and meals, preparing meals and snacks, engaging children in age-appropriate play and learning activities, reading, helping with nap time, and keeping their spaces clean and organized. I'm CPR, First Aid, and Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) certified, and I always prioritize children's safety while creating a fun, nurturing, and positive environment where they can learn and grow. Families have described me as calm, responsible, and trustworthy. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love encouraging their curiosity through games, crafts, outdoor play, books, and other engaging activities. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, communicating openly with parents, and treating every child with kindness and patience. I'm happy to help with light housekeeping related to the children, meal preparation, homework assistance for older kids, and creating a smooth, stress free experience for the whole family. I look forward to getting to know your family!

Salina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I’m Salina , and I’m grateful for the opportunity to connect with families seeking a caring, dependable, and attentive caregiver. As a psychology graduate currently working as a Case Manager in Children’s Crisis Outreach, I support children and families through challenging moments with patience, empathy, and structure—skills that deeply inform how I show up in caregiving roles. My professional background has strengthened my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and the importance of creating environments where children feel safe, supported, and understood. Alongside my formal training, I’ve built years of hands-on experience caring for children in various settings, allowing me to adapt to different ages, personalities, and family dynamics with ease. What continues to motivate me is the privilege of helping children feel secure while encouraging curiosity, growth, and confidence. I prioritize clear communication, consistency, and age-appropriate engagement, and I’m intentional about creating calm, enriching spaces—whether through creative activities, routine-building, or simply being a steady presence. I would love the opportunity to support your family and contribute positively to your child’s well-being. I’m happy to connect via FaceTime or meet for coffee to discuss your family’s needs and how my experience may be a good fit. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to learning more about your family and exploring how I can best support you. Warmly, Salina

Autumn $28 per hour for 1 child

I have been a classroom teacher for eighteen years and I absolutely love my job. Recently, I have stepped away to find more flexibility and time to care for my 10 year old and work on art projects. Most of my experience has been working with communities and schools that serve a high proportion of students learning English as a second language and high rates of free or reduced lunch. Meeting the diverse needs of students has been a joy and a welcomed challenge. Their curiosity is inspiring and I feel incredibly fortunate to guide and teach these children. I believe strongly in integrating subject matter wherever possible and working closely with colleagues to provide the best possible education for each student. As my career has progressed, I have started exploring alternative ways of educating including Land Based Education, student led, subject integrated projects and social/emotional regulation skills based on art, music, and nature therapy. I am seeking a part time position to spend more time with my son and work on developing a science program centered on the Pacific Northwest. My education includes a Masters in Teaching from the University of Washington, a Master of Arts in Zoology from Miami University and a NBC for Middle Childhood Generalist (recently renewed until 2030). I love the outdoors and play based eduction. I have many pets including chickens, cats, a bearded dragon, a dog and two guinea pigs. I love working on projects with kids especially science and art. Thank you for taking the time to read this! I hope to meet you soon!

Jo Yee $35 per hour for 1 child

My background includes supporting families with children on consistent routines, balancing the needs of multiple kids, and ensuring safe, engaging days filled with age‑appropriate activities. I’m confident in managing feedings, diaper changes, and maintaining sleep schedules while keeping play areas tidy. I also enjoy preparing healthy meals and supporting household routines, including washing bottles and baby dishes, so parents can relax and enjoy their weekends. Families I’ve worked with value my calm and caring presence, especially during busy moments when infants and toddlers need different kinds of attention at the same time. I’m also comfortable driving around Seattle for outings or errands if needed. I’d love to become a trusted partner in your children’s care and bring a joyful, nurturing energy to your home.
