Kimberly H., Babysitter in Olalla, WA 98359 with 25 years of paid experience

Hi there I am currently a Kindergarten teacher in Seattle for the Renton School District. I have BA of Interdisciplinary Studies, a MA in Education and teaching certificate for the states of TX, CA and Washington. I relocated to Seattle from Texas where I taught Pre Kindergarten in a public school as a certified teacher for 5 years. I also taught PreK in California and worked in various schools in Orange County, California. Other experience includes KinderCare preschool teacher where I worked with 2 year olds and infants and part time babysitting over the years for families with kiddos of all ages. As a certified teacher I have many hours of training and experience using positive discipline focused on redirection and respecting relationships. I have many fur babies so pets are always a plus. I look forward to meeting you.

Suzie C., Babysitter in Olalla, WA 98359 with 23 years of paid experience

I have been babysitting ever since I was 12 years old. I wanted to give back for all the years that I had been taken care of. I took a specific course to become a babysitter and started to babysit my neighbors. I had heard about a course specifically for babysitting, so I took it. After that I was good to go to babysit the whole neighborhood. It worked out perfectly while I attended UC Davis. I graduated with two degrees in Dramatic Art and Design, and two minors in Chicano Studies and Education. I love to teach it and create new things. I am also a Spanish native speaker. I was born in a town near Mexico City. I am very interested in teaching kids what I have learned and also try to have fun with them. Every time I babysit I like to teach the kids something new. Currently, I am a pre-K teacher. I am loving, fun, and entertaining to be around. Teaching kiddos is my passion. It’s the beginning of a new beginning in education. Please ask what my availability is for the summer! Gracias

Suzie has been absolutely amazing! In only a couple weeks, she has taught my 16 month old a ton of new sign language and words that he is using regularly! She’s is genuinely excited and eager to play and teach him, and it’s like having our own personal Ms. Rachel. She keeps our LO so entertained and happy that he doesn’t even care if mom or dad leave the room. He became so comfortable with her so quickly, and is excited to see her every time. Even when he was unexpectedly sleeping in later, Suzie offered to help with some home organization until he woke up! She is so very helpful and it is so reassuring to know that my little one is in such great hands. Knowing he is so happy with her helps dissipate that ever lingering mom guilt when I’m away from him. I can’t say enough great things about Suzie.

Nguyen N., Babysitter in Olalla, WA 98359 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Nguyen Nickerson. I am a mature, responsible, devoted and reliable nanny with 10 years experience as a professional nanny in Seattle. I have experience with kids from 2 months to 12 year old. I have 6 years experience with infants and toddlers. I simply love children, love caring for them and find them fascinating, and I am seeking further nanny work to continue doing what I love and broadening my experience. A little about myself: I graduated with a Bachelor of English from University of Social Science and Humanities of Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam in 2013. I am CPR/First Aid trained. I am bilingual in English and Vietnamese and would love to teach Vietnamese to the children that I take care of. I am a Mental Health First Aider. I participated in the Caregiver and Child Intervention 6 weeks program with Seattle Children’s Play Therapy. I have finished The Parent Leadership Training Institute at Everett Community College fall 2021. I have a clean background check. I have a Subaru car which is insuranced with a clean driving record. I am more than happy to drive kids to educational activities such as story times, baby and toddler gym, zoo, aquarium… I am up to date with vaccinations including Covid, flu shot, Tdap. I pay attention to details. I design daily activities based on parents' wants and child’s needs, making sure children hit their development milestones, and encouraging learning social and emotional skills via play. I want to help children advance their language development through reading, singing and talking to children. I coordinated with parents to develop systems that encourage positive behaviors. I manage a calendar of events and appointments including lessons, playdates… I want to make sure I am able to connect on a deep level, build a safe, loving relationship and offer a stable environment to nurture your child. I want to have open communications with the parents and be a part of your family.

Nguyen was great with my 3-month-old daughter. She was very engaging which was great for my daughter as she continued to have longer awake windows. She took her for walks, took her to the tot room at the nearby community center and she read to her. She was a huge help to me by introducing me to the Huckleberry app which we used to track my daughter’s daily activities and to see trends. She also helped with sleep training which has been going really well. She was on time, communicated well, and took pictures and video clips throughout the day. She definitely made my life easier and I would be happy to use her again!

Sandra C., Babysitter in Olalla, WA 98359 with 30 years of paid experience

My husband and I have four children and six grandchildren! We believe that children are a gift from God, so nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's something I genuinely love to do! With 30 years of experience caring for children aged 0-17, I find immense joy in fostering their growth and development. My approach is patient, kind, and gentle, creating a safe and supportive environment for your little one. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and happy to provide regular updates on your child through texts or phone calls, if desired, in addition to verbal communication at the end of our time together. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games that promote learning. I am First Aid and CPR certified as of December 13th, 2025. I am happy to help with carpooling and light housekeeping, and would love to babysit so you the parent/parents can get a day/night off. It would be my pleasure to support your family and provide a reliable occasional childcare option for you.

Sandra is patient, warm, and caring. My kids were blessed to spend time with her as she is very loving and kind. Sandra has a lens on safety and closely supervises as children play. She uses teachable moments to support social skills and positive character development. She is the only person outside of family that I trust completely with my children.

Karen L., Babysitter in Olalla, WA 98359 with 14 years of paid experience

Hello Everyone, My name is Karen. I just completed my 11th year of teaching Special Education teacher for the NYC Board of Education. The last 4 of the 12 years I taught Art specifically 🎨. I worked primarily with students diagnosed with Autism but have experience babysitting/tutoring/nanny-ing children of all ages and abilities ranging from 1 to 16 years of age. I've taken a little pause on teaching this year to explore some exciting creative endeavors, as well as go on a fun adventure to the West Coast! However, I would still love the opportunity to work with children in some capacity 😊 I would describe myself as a very loving person, honest, kind, I am a huge animal, passionate about loving our planet, and above all a big kid who likes to be goofy and fun. Please reach out with any questions you may have! Hope to speak with you soon. Warmly, Karen

Karen watched my 1-year-old a few times. My daughter absolutely loved her. She took great care of her and would send me updates throughout the day while I was at work. Karen is very sweet and caring. She communicates very well and is always on time. Unfortunately, my schedule changed, and we no longer have her, but I would absolutely recommend her Karen was wonderful!

I’ve spent years working with kids in all kinds of settings — babysitting babies and toddlers, helping out in kindergartens, and supporting groups of children in different programs. I truly love what I do. Watching kids learn, grow, and discover new things has always been one of my favorite parts of the job. Whether I’m calming a baby, helping with early learning skills, or creating fun activities, working with children is something that brings me so much joy.

We hired Lesley to help take care of our 3 month old infant overnight. She is very good at soothing a baby who only contact sleeps, and quickly adapted to nuances of care. She is very easy to get along with and clearly loves children. We are looking forward to the remaining month and a half of time we need her assistance overnight.

Hi there! I am a compassionate, creative caregiver and educator with several years of experience working with kids aged 5 months – 18 years old. Since 2015, I have worked in preschool and elementary classrooms, in daycares, and as both a part-time babysitter and a full-time nanny for multiple families. Currently, during the school year, I am a performer and educator with Taproot Theatre's Road Company, where I tour bullying prevention plays to K-12 students across the state of Washington. Every day, I interact with hundreds of students between the ages of 5-18. I truly love babies and children of all ages. As your sitter, I will combine my childcare experience with my arts background to engage your children in creative, joyful, developmentally-relevant learning and play! :)
