Find local babysitters in Palouse, WA

I’m a second-year student at the University of Idaho and have been babysitting for about 7 years. I’ve worked with kids of many ages and always aim to create a safe, patient, and engaging environment. I’m naturally calm and understanding, which helps me handle everything from busy playtimes to tricky moments with ease. In addition to babysitting, I also have several years of experience teaching private swim lessons. That taught me how to connect with kids one-on-one, encourage them through challenges, and make learning fun skills that translate directly into babysitting and nannying. I like to keep kids active and creative, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, reading, or helping with homework. I also make sure daily routines (meals, bedtime, etc.) run smoothly so parents can feel at ease. With school and campus activities, my schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with families to find times that fit best. I’m especially interested in something consistent during the school year, like regular babysitting or part-time nannying. If you’re looking for a dependable sitter who brings patience, responsibility, and fun, I’d love to connect!

Hello my name is Jillian and I’m 22 years old, I mostly babysit my moms friends children, my neighbors children, I tried to find other jobs like working at a store or restaurants but I really like babysitting.

I am a recent graduate from WSU with a Human Development degree! My goal is to work with the youth population, to ensure children have all of the resources they need to live a successful life. I have experience as recreational gymnastics coach, where I led a class of a large group of children ranging from ages five to twelve. I was able to interact with the parents of my students and form a trusting relationship where they were eager for their child to have gymnastics class with me! I nannied for a family from May to August 2024! I was able to plan activities, such as games, crafts, and educational exercises. One of my responsibilities was driving children to and from appointments and any errands the parents needed! Another important task was preparing meals and snacks for children.

Hi Everyone, My name is Erin and I am a student at WSU. Not only am I a big sister but I am also officially an aunt. I have been working for the YMCA since 2019 and have experience with children aged 6 months to 12 years. In the past I have been trained in CPR, First Aid, AED, and water rescue. While these certifications have since expired, I am more than willing to take the courses again if need be. I love kids and have found that they seem to love me too (unless it’s 7 in the morning but who likes anyone at that time of day). I will be in the Pullman/Moscow area taking summer classes so my schedule is relatively open for the next 6 weeks and potentially longer depending on the fall term.

I am a college student majoring in psychology. As a result, I have a good understanding of child psychology and development. While most of my childcare experience comes from babysitting my little brother and the children of family friends and neighbors, I do enjoy babysitting. I genuinely enjoy children, especially their imaginations and free spirits. I am skilled in taking care of children of all ages, patient, and get along with most personalities. Feel free to reach out for more information if desired, I'm always happy to help!

Currently Im a student at WSU pursuing a degree in Elementary Education. While I do go home for out university breaks I typically work at a daycare, however while I am in school I truly miss caring for children. I have been an infant teacher for the past 2 years and have experience in ages 0-4. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, Food Handling, and child care basics.

Hi! Most of my childcare experience is from watching my younger siblings, cousins, and niece. I’ve also had experience with babysitting an 11 month old.

I am the oldest of 3, have volunteered in a preschool, and have experience caring for younger cousins. I have lots of experience with dogs, I’m a hard worker, a quick learner, and I am very reliable.

For the past 4 consecutive summers I have been a lifeguard and taught swim lessons for ages 2-8. I have also worked as a Daycare Teacher for six months. I am CPR and First Aid certified, both for adults and infants. I love working with kids, and I plan on majoring in Early Childhood Education so I can pursue the passion in the future. I am a huge believer in no screen time, and I love to sit down and read as much as I can. I also believe in the importance of being outside, as well as healthy eating. I hope to meet your family soon!
