Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m based in Lake Stevens and have more than 15 years of experience caring for children, from infants through school age. My background includes working in licensed childcare centers as a preschool/pre-K teacher and, more recently, as a private nanny. I’ve cared for an infant alongside an older sibling, twins, and households with several children, so I’m comfortable balancing different ages, personalities, and routines. I enjoy getting involved in whatever helps children feel comfortable and have fun—reading stories, making crafts, singing songs, playing pretend, building with blocks, or heading outside to explore. My teaching experience includes leading a classroom of children ages 18 months to 2 years, so I have plenty of practice supporting busy toddlers, big feelings, and growing independence! Whether you need an occasional sitter, date-night care, or an extra set of hands, my goal is to help your children feel safe and cared for while giving you peace of mind. I’m comfortable with infant feeding, diaper changes, naps, simple meals, and bedtime routines. I’m also happy to tidy up after the children’s meals and activities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a valid driver’s license and clean driving record, and can provide childcare references. I’d love to learn about your family and see how I can help!

I am a Back Up Sitter, Occasional Sitter, Date Night or Day Sitter for Snohomish, Lake Stevens, Monroe and Everett Only. I’m a Loving Wife, Mother and a Fun Grandma who believes in education and early hands on learning. A child is never too young to be read to and I love singing nursery rhymes with them. I raised 3 Amazing and Successful children who are now in their late 30's and early 40's and I have 7 Wonderful grandchildren. Both of my sons are Firefighters and my daughter is a director at Microsoft. I worked in the Medical Field for over 35 years before I quit in October of 2020 to homeschool two of my grandchildren due to Covid19. I enjoyed it so much that I decided not to go back to work in the medical field and instead take up childcare and volunteer work at my grandson's elementary school. I am Christian woman that is a nondrinker and nonsmoker. My hobbies are gardening and traveling. Because I like to travel so much I am unable to nanny full time. We travel 3 to 4 times a year and are gone 2 to 4 weeks at a time. I would love to babysit your little one/ones on an as needed basis, when you need a date night or have errands/appointments during the day and/or if your nanny gets sick, takes vacation or has an emergency. I look forward to meeting you and your little one/ones soon.

It was such a relief to have Lanaya as our first childcare experience. As a new mom, I’m still figuring quite a few things out, and I often leaned on Lanaya for advice. She is enthusiastic, creative, flexible, and wonderful with children. My son absolutely loved her. 10/10 HIGHLY recommend!!!

Hi my name is Becky. I come from a very big family of faith. I am the 5th of 10 kids. I was raised around kids my entire life. I was the second mom to my younger siblings. I started babysitting in the fifth grade for family and neighbors. I am experienced from birth to 12 years old. Happily married with five of my own children. I know all the stages and milestones. I see how every child is special in their own way. Outdoor activities are very important. We are always active. I like to visit the park and library with my kids. I am a caring mommy, and sitter with great work ethic. I have a CPR and blood borne pathogens certificate. Also food handlers permit. I volunteer at my kids school and sports. I love to bake cookies and make home made meals. Good healthy food is important. Comfortable watching twins, and colicky babies plus kids that have hyper Add. I have personal experience with both. I am hands on and like to get down on the ground. Kids love the attention they get from me personally. Thanks for looking. I can be reached anytime. 425-346-3858

Hi, I’m yana! I’ve been working with children for 6 years, with experience caring for children ranging from 3 months to 8 years old. I’ve worked as a private nanny, occasional babysitter, and daycare caregiver, and I’ve also spent time volunteering with children through Sunday school and summer and winter camps. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children, so I’m familiar with the different needs and routines that come with each age. I also have experience caring for multiple children at once. With infants, I’m comfortable with bottle feeding, diaper changes, naps, soothing, and following feeding and sleep schedules. With toddlers and younger children, I’ve helped with potty training, managing tantrums, preparing meals and snacks, encouraging independence, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. I’ve also helped school-aged children with homework, school drop-offs and pickups, after-school routines, and keeping them engaged throughout the day. I enjoy finding ways to keep kids entertained and learning, whether that’s reading books, doing arts and crafts, sensory play, spending time outdoors, or coming up with creative activities based on their interests. I’m also comfortable helping with everyday routines like meal prep, tidying up after activities and meals, and getting everyone ready for bedtime. I’d describe myself as patient, reliable, and easygoing. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable with the person caring for their children, so I always do my best to follow each family’s routines, preferences, and parenting style. I want the kids I care for to feel safe, comfortable, and happy, while making things a little easier for their families along the way.

Yana was amazing with our son! We were visiting from out of town and she asked some great questions to get a feel for his routine. I felt like she was very prepared and reliable. She has some great experience working with kids and you can tell. She was so sweet and able to help him calm down when we left, kept a log of his day, gave us updates while we were gone. It all put me at ease. When we’re back in town next, Yana is our top choice.

I’m available for part-time or full-time work, and I’d love to connect with a kind family who’s looking for someone they can truly trust with their little ones.

Aida C.

I retired early to enjoy being a grandma after raising five children as a single parent. Now I have nine grandchildren with another on the way. I babysit my grandchildren as needed from newborn to eight years old. Each gets special attention based on their personalities and learning styles. My youngest kids are twenty nine year old twins, so life was busy when they were younger. They all went to co-op preschools and I was able to take ECE classes at the local community college as well. All five are now grown and successful. I’m available as a backup sitter, date night sitter, or day sitter in Snohomish, Lake Stevens, Monroe, Marysville, Woodinville, Everett, Granite Falls, and Arlington. I believe children learn through play and spend my time with them doing just that while making sure they are safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. My husband and I enjoy travel, so I’d love to be your backup sitter, last minute substitute, date night sitter, or the one you can call when you just need a break to run errands hands free. My hobbies include caring for my many chickens (and a couple of roosters), playing with and walking my two dogs Porter the chocolate lab and Hank the golden retriever, quilting, gardening, beekeeping, and baking. I’m happy to answer any questions or meet via FaceTime to see if I would be a good fit for your family and look forward to meeting you and your little one/ones.

Aida recently looked after our toddler for date night, and she was an absolute delight! As soon as she came in, our dogs loved her, and our toddler started chatting with her like she'd known her for years :). Aida was wonderful and easy to communicate with and was very patient and positive with our toddler as she had just been potty-trained the week before. Overall we felt very comfortable with her watching our kiddo and we're looking forward to having her over again!

Hi there! My name's Alisha and I've been told (a few times 😉before) that I am a very reliable, energetic, trustworthy and highly experienced “Nannager” ~ my own term for the perfect blend of professional sitter, nanny, and household manager. With 20+ years of childcare experience, I’ve cared for children of all ages, including infants, twins, toddlers, and school-aged children. I genuinely love helping families create a safe, happy, organized, and fun environment where children can learn, explore, and grow. I’m Adult, Child & Animal CPR Certified, First Aid trained, have a clean driving record, no criminal background, and hold Level II clearance for working and volunteering around children in school settings. I recently adopted my niece and two nephews, so I understand firsthand the beautiful ~ and sometimes wonderfully chaotic ~ reality of caring for little ones and managing a busy household. I believe children thrive when they receive individualized attention, encouragement, consistency, and plenty of opportunities for creativity, outdoor play, movement, and discovery. I love getting kids involved rather than simply “watching” them. I’m a golf and softball instructor, active in youth sports and community leadership, and currently serve on the North Bothell Little League Board, as Softball Player Coordinator, Head Umpire in Chief, and GM of the U14 Girls Softball team. I’m also an active member of the NorthShore School District Fitness & Nutrition Committee. I’m currently developing my ASL skills and enjoy introducing children to beginner French and Spanish. I’m happy to prepare meals, tidy up, do children’s laundry, run errands, provide transportation, manage schedules, and help keep busy households running smoothly. Most importantly, I want parents to feel confident when they walk out the door ~ and children to feel excited when I walk through it. My goal is to become more than just a sitter: I want to be the trusted, dependable extra set of hands every busy family wishes they had. ❤️ Alisha K
