Maya P., Babysitter in Renton, WA 98059 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Maya and I currently live in Bellevue. I’m originally from Honolulu, Hawaii but I moved to Washington in 2020 for school, and I graduated from UW in 2024 with my B.S in speech and hearing sciences! I worked at an early childcare center with infants-pre-k children from 2021-2024 and have babysat since 2021. I am currently CPR/First-Aid certified. I currently work as a speech therapist in a pediatric therapy clinic where I provide services to children between the ages of 3-12! I have the amazing opportunity to work very closely and co-treat with occupational therapists and mental health therapists so I have been able to learn some strategies from therm. I previously worked providing speech therapy for a school district where I got to collaborate with resource, life skills, and SEL teachers so I am very familiar with various SpEd departments!

We had a wonderful experience with Maya. She was kind, patient, and immediately connected with our 6‑year‑old. She kept him engaged with games, dinner, and a smooth bedtime routine. We came home to a happy kiddo and a calm house. We would absolutely hire her again!

Hi there! I recently earned my degree in early childhood education from Skagit & Highline College, and I have been caring for children for 5+ years as a childcare provider. I work with all ages such as newborns, infants, toddlers, preschool, and school age. I love working with young kids as I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. I want to be able to provide parents with someone trustworthy to care for their children.

Tanner F., Babysitter in Renton, WA 98059 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi everybody! I am a certified math teacher and a boys' basketball coach at a high school in Renton. I attended school at the University of Washington where I obtained my Master's in Teaching in 2020. I've been working with kids for 10 years and have babysat for the past 5 years. I've cared for many families, mostly in date night roles, with kids aged 1 and up. In addition to date nights, I've also helped with weekends/overnights, after school, and full-time babysitting in the summer. Working with kids is something I enjoy doing and is the reason I became a teacher and a coach. I like to spend the time interacting and engaging with the kids. I focus on making sure they have a safe and fun time while in my care. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about me! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I'm excited for the opportunity to work with you and your family!

Rachael D., Babysitter in Renton, WA 98059 with 15 years of paid experience

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I'm currently looking for a full time long term role beginning in early June. My pay rate range is $30-$40. I'm flexible on position responsibilities and hours/days. About Me: I moved to Seattle a year ago and have fallen in love with the PNW! I spend most of my free time exploring with my golden retriever, Grace. I enjoy a large variety of hobbies, such as hiking, photography, music, crafts, and sports. I have over 15 years of experience caring for children from infancy through the teenage years. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, stable environment with a focus on fun, learning, and balance. I plan outings, activities, etc. to keep kids engaged and happy while also ensuring that they have downtime to recharge. I recognize that all families and all children are different. I can quickly adapt my approach based on the uniqueness of each child and the needs of the family. Hope to hear from you soon!

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Rachael. From day one, she gained the trust of both of my kids through her warm tone, playful energy, and genuine attention to who they are as individuals. She has a special talent for making everyday moments fun and cooperative. For example, when my son was deep into space and astronauts, she turned breakfast into “astronaut fuel from outer space” — and suddenly eating was an adventure instead of a struggle. She’s thoughtful like that. She remembers little details about each child (like how my younger one likes his morning “nest” with all his stuffies and a blanket) and uses those details to make them feel safe and understood. She is incredibly responsible and reliable — always on time, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. I especially appreciate how responsive she is. Mornings can be hectic, and she consistently shows up ready to help. One of her first questions is, “How can I help?” — and she means it. She’ll jump in to tidy up blankets, reset the couch, or handle small things without being asked. It makes such a difference. What stands out most is how calmly and proactively she navigates tricky moments. Once when my son was upset and crying in the car, she had already anticipated the possibility and brought bubbles to help him regulate — which worked beautifully. Another time, she noticed him swinging a chip clip on a string in a way that could have been unsafe. Without any prompting, she stepped in kindly, explained the issue, and he willingly stopped — and hasn’t done it since. She handles safety with confidence and warmth, not fear or overreaction. She drives my kids to daycare in the mornings, and I feel completely at ease knowing they are with her. She brings a bubbly, joyful presence into our home that we all genuinely look forward to. Any family would be lucky to have her.

Jessie M., Babysitter in Renton, WA 98059 with 20 years of paid experience

For over 20 years, I've worked as a nanny, household manager, part-time sitter, Montessori and social-emotional preschool teacher, and arts enrichment facilitator for kids of all ages. I taught infant/toddler music and movement classes for two years, and I've been a youth mentor and youth volunteer manager. I love meeting new families and supporting their unique needs. Whether I'm spending quiet time at home with the kiddos, going for walks, picking up kids from school and delivering them to activities, helping with homework, running errands, facilitating playdates, or lending a hand with household chores—I'm here for it! I spent 10 years as a communications specialist for community-based nonprofits and I previously worked in tech. I'm also a singer/songwriter and performer. My skills and experience are well-rounded, and my personality and work style reflect that. I enjoy the flexibility of being a sitter at this stage in my life and feel grateful to do work that allows time for other activities. When I'm not caregiving, I'm paddle boarding, beach-combing, spending time with family, my husband, and rescue dogs in our Beacon Hill home of 20 years. I can also be found volunteering in my community (and at the NW Chimpanzee Sanctuary!). I have extensive experience with infant (including newborns), toddler, and school-aged kids; I've cared for multiple sets of twins; and I've worked with children on the spectrum and kids with developmental delays and other special needs. I've supported families through many difficult circumstances from divorce to serious illness. I'm deeply empathetic, proactive and agile as an extended member of a family support team, and I try to find a way to have fun no matter what I'm doing. I look forward to meeting you and supporting your family! Warmly, Jessie PS: I have a reliable car and clean driving record, and I'm happy to provide professional references from families I've worked for in the Seattle area upon request. My rate is flexible and depends entirely on the particulars of the job.

Trust you and your kids will have the absolute best time with Jessie McKenna! Jessie was our first nanny and took care of my infant for over a year until he started nursery school, and then we hired Jessie to take care of the now toddler and second baby, which she took to immediately. She planned fun activities for the kids, made sure they ate and napped responsibly, and I always came home knowing my kids were happy and content (and not as excited to see me, which, let's be honest, is every mom's dream when you have someone caring for your kids that prefer them over you!) Jessie has been a part of our family for over a decade, and my now grown up kids adore her still and talk fondly about their time with her. I have recommended Jessie to my friends who have younger children and their experience has been just as good as mine was. If I could give Jessie 10 stars, I absolutely would. There are lots of care givers out there, but only one Jessie and I feel blessed every day that we got her for the most transformative years of our kids lives. Claire Newman

Rebekah I., Babysitter in Renton, WA 98059 with 43 years of paid experience

We moved from Austin, Texas, to Bellevue, WA, on June 14, 2023. We love it here. About my background: I home-schooled my children leading to their acceptance into Rhode Island School of Design (full scholarship,) Columbia University and Princeton University. Subsequently, I obtained my bachelor's, master's and PhD degrees in political science, the latter degree at the age of 55. Starting in 2017, I made 17 trips around the country to serve as a sitter educator for my granddaughter. After that I was a nanny educator in Austin, Texas, for her brother. Occasionally I managed care and education for both brother and sister, together. We moved to Bellevue Washington in June of 2023 to continue part-time care for the two grandchildren. Since then, I am working also for other families as a nanny educator and enjoy all age groups. My work includes educating children of all abilities as well as taking care of basics, such as hygiene, meal preparation and story-telling. Through all of my childcare services, I encourage children to develop self-motivation. Please contact me to check my availability.

Rebekah is a kind, reliable and intelligent teacher. We have known her for over a year and she has become an integral part of our family. Her greatest strengths are her patience and dedication towards her students as well as the kindness and respect she has towards her students' special needs and individuality. She communicates well with the parents and keeps us updated at all times. She constantly seeks ways to keep her student engaged and happy. All of the above attributes also makes her an excellent choice if you are seeking a caregiver, teacher or babysitter. I would highly recommend Rebekah in this regard.

I love being a sitter because it gives me the opportunity to connect with others, whether it’s pets, children, or elderly individuals. There’s something incredibly rewarding about providing care and seeing those I look after feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I enjoy the flexibility of the job, too, as it allows me to balance my time while helping others with their needs. It’s fulfilling to know that I’m offering peace of mind to families or pet owners. have experience in [pet sitting/babysitting/elderly care], where I’ve learned to manage tasks like feeding, administering medications, and providing companionship. Over time, I’ve gained confidence in caring for different individuals, whether it’s keeping pets entertained and active or helping children with their daily routines. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with families on various occasions, which has improved my ability to adapt to different needs and preferences. I have strong communication skills, which help me interact effectively with both the individuals I’m caring for and their families. I’m also trained in first aid and CPR, which I believe is an essential skill for any sitter. I have experience managing schedules and routines, especially with children or pets, and I’m good at keeping everything organized. I’m patient, compassionate, and enjoy being proactive in addressing any challenges that may arise, whether that’s calming an anxious pet or ensuring a child feels safe and secure.

I'm a nurturing firstborn and current psychology student with years of hands-on caregiving experience. Growing up as the big sister, I naturally took on the role of caregiver; managing routines, providing emotional support, and creating a safe, fun environment for my younger brother as well as cousins. That experience, combined with my studies in psychology, has given me a deeper understanding of children’s needs, development, and emotions. Parents describe me as dependable, patient, and engaging, and I love making kids feel both cared for and excited to learn and play. Whether it’s after-school routines, weekend care, or special occasions, I bring warmth, responsibility, and a genuine love for children to every family I work with.
