Hi, my name is Mavis, I graduated from college a couple of years ago and worked as a graphic designer and artist for a while. I recently went back to school for some professional training. I started babysitting 9 years ago, I’ve been giving care to infants, toddlers and older kids. At the same time, I work with kids in age 3-14 as an art teacher. I get along with kids pretty well, and I enjoy my time with them. I am a patient and caring person. I like animals, especially dogs. In my past caregiving experience, I usually make art with kids, play the piano, go on walks to parks, pickup and provide simple meals, singing, dancing, reading books, etc. I am looking forward to meet your family and offer my help!

Rumana A.
- 4 years paid experience
- 14 miles
Hello! My name is Rumana, and I'm a recent graduate from UW Seattle. I’m currently studying for the MCAT and babysitting on the side, so my schedule is pretty flexible between the two! I am located in Seattle and can conveniently get to anywhere close by, such as Capitol Hill, but also have a car and can travel farther (Bothell, Redmond, etc.) if needed. I love kids and hope to become a pediatrician one day! To me, working with children is incredibly fun and exciting—I love to engage their curiosity and sense of play as a babysitter and help them learn how to be respectful and kind as peers at the same time. I have experience working with kids of all ages, particularly between infants to around 11 years old. When babysitting, I typically help kids read books, play lots of games, as well as do arts and crafts if available in order to stimulate their imagination and creativity. I am happy to help with homework, light housekeeping, and any other responsibilities you might need me to do. I babysat all throughout undergrad, amounting to 4 years of experience doing paid babysitting, and spent an initial 2 years working for a family with three talkative and active kids aged 1, 3, and 5. Afterwards, I began babysitting for many different families independently for an additional 2 years, and am super adaptable to a variety of kids! In terms of availability, I am typically available in the evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends, but again, I can be flexible if needed! Parenting is hard; the most fulfilling aspect of babysitting to me is helping your family maintain balance within your lives amidst busy schedules, and I sincerely hope to use my experience working with kids in my future career!

Rafaella R.
- 6 years paid experience
- 12 miles
Hi! I’m Rafaella — a caring, reliable, and experienced sitter with over 6 years of childcare experience. I truly love working with children and feel honored to be a part of their development and everyday moments. My journey started in Brazil, where I worked at a daycare and volunteered with 4–5-year-olds at my church. I later spent 2 years as an au pair in the U.S., caring for children ranging from 6 months to 8 years old. Those years helped me build strong skills in nurturing routines, supporting milestones, and creating a safe, fun environment for kids to grow. Currently, I’m working with a family caring for their sweet baby — I started when he was just 5 months old, and now he’s a happy, active 1-year-old! I’m experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-age kids, and I always bring patience, creativity, and responsibility to every family I work with. Whether it’s reading stories, planning activities, or helping with naps and meals, I’m here to support your child’s needs with love and care. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Hi, I’m Cameron! I have a strong background working with children through both professional and personal experiences. I’ve worked in ABA therapy, supporting children with developmental and behavioral needs, which has given me valuable skills in patience, communication, and structure. I’ve also spent years babysitting for families in my church community, building trusted relationships and caring for kids of various ages. I truly enjoy helping families by providing a safe, positive, and engaging environment for their children. Whether it’s playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I’m dependable, nurturing, and always focused on each child’s individual needs. I work for Lake Washington School District as a behavioral therapist and would love to assist your children in a fun nurturing environment!

Samantha G.
- 3 years paid experience
- 2 miles
My name is Samantha and I am a mother of two youngsters! I have worked for three years as a parent coordinator in co-op preschool with kids from 1 to 5. Additionally, I have nanny experience, new born night care experience and regular babysitter experience. Childcare is by far the best career choice I could have ever made. My approach to childcare is play based and rich in art, books, baking and any other activity kids enjoy. What makes me different from other babysitters is that I come to the job with a range of thoughtful and helpful ideas. Firstly, I help teach children effective solutions for issues that arise for anything from sharing to communicating their needs. Secondly, I go above and beyond to anticipate how I can help parents. This means that at the end of a babysitting night all the toys and dishes are all put back and clean. Lastly, I hope you'll choose me because I am a parent and that gives me an insight into what raising a child feels like. I bring ideas, empathy, and care into my work. I see childcare as a three fold job: caring for the children, the family as a whole and the house. Parents know their children better than anyone so I always take parent input seriously and appreciate any feedback along the way. Thank you so much!

Kaitlyn W.
- 3 years paid experience
- < 1 mile
The last three summers I’ve been a camp counselor in Arizona and loved it! My favorite days at camp were swim days, I used to be a swimmer and the pool was fun for the kids. From this experience, I learned a lot more from my campers than I expected to. For instance, on a trampoline field trip, a bunch of my campers taught me to front flip (I didn’t have much say in the matter but I’m still glad they encouraged me) I am first aid/CPR certified as well and have experience with children who have disabilities. I have a sister with a disability (CDLS) and grew up helping take care of her. In Arizona I received article 9 training and have a finger print card. I currently go to college in California and am working towards being a nurse practitioner.
