Find experienced babysitters in Seabeck, WA

Hello Maria here. I'm 100% children focused: playing games, reading books, trips, homework help, etc.    Seeking occasional work before noon or after 7pm, as I have a part time position I'm very happy about. I clean up after any activity or meal.    I don't use the computer -- unless it’s for an activity for the children.  Rarely use the phone. I grew up cooking Italian food, cooked vegetarian at a Retreat Center, and can cook pretty much any food that children enjoy – often from scratch.       As the eldest of 5 children it was often my job to watch my siblings who were 1 to 14 years younger than I was.  My first job, at age 10, was babysitting a neighbor’s child while the parents enjoyed date nights.  At age 14 I babysit for 2 girls, 24 hr a day, all weekend and took 2 buses to get to and from their home.    I've babysat for my nephews and nieces (I have 10 of them, 6 in one family), sometimes at their home, often at mine, and watching up to 6 of them at a time.  I mentored 3 children in foster care and they stayed at my home 1 weekend a month. I have also mentored nearly 400 teens, and have two community service awards. I was not blessed to have children of my own.  Often I "borrow" children whose families I met at church to spend a day enjoying life with them. We've gone to museums, on picnics, for walks, done gardening, and enjoyed parks, the beach, play games, cards, gone to movies, etc. I teach children old NYC streets games, sometimes we watch movies and play games, often we cook together. I have been employed by PARKS at an after school center and can do lots of crafts, homework, day trips, etc. I play the accordion (not well any more) but have taught children to read music and play very basic songs. I have a CPR and First Aid Certification that expired in May 2020. I have not renewed due to Covid. I was bonded by a Tax Advisory firm and also on Wall Street, when I worked there. I was brought up cooking Italian food, cooked vegetarian at a retreat house, and cook age appropriate foods for or with children. I have two masks and am very careful regarding underlying condition regarding Covid, Since Feb 2021, I have taken a train once -- to go to jury duty. Have not been on train. I have a car... but no air conditioning. I have lots of references.

I'm an 17th year Special Education teacher. I love kids! It's important to me to provide parents an affordable night out where they don't need to worry. I live and work in Kitsap County and am Looking to help families on weekends or overnight. Let’s chat!

I have many years experience caring for children of all ages professionally. I have a clean background and reliable transportation. I have worked as a caregiver for the past 15 years helping elderly and disabled clients in their homes. I'm also a mom of a 27 year old son and 18 year old daughter and grandmother of 1 year old granddaughter 🙂 I love to cook making healthy meals and snacks, keeping homes clean and tidy, do arts/crafts, play games/ do puzzles and read books/watch movies occasionally and going to play outside in the fresh air when weather is decent. I enjoy pets and helping with them as well if needed. I'm flexible about days and times and for date nights too. I could even do overnights as well with a days advance notice if you need a weekend getaway. Please reach out if you are interested in meeting with me. Thanks Teresa😊

Experienced nanny with a high-focus on building healthy attachment styles by creating a predictable environment, guiding emotional and mental development. While I do incorporate a lot of learning into our play from neuroscience books I've read, I prefer to keep it fluid and still allow the child to be a child. I follow a Montessori approach, so I don't feel comfortable forcing learning or being rigid with the methods. Particularly with toddlers, I allow them to take the lead through their interests to develop their independence and need for autotomy. This empowers them to manage nonnegotiable rules and boundaries with less meltdowns; in other words, we're building the foundational skills for compromising. WFH Families Unfortunately, I am not a good fit for this environment I have worked with lovely families and even then, found my introverted temperament type gets exhausted integrating into the nuances of a family dynamic.

My name is Taryn and I have been a nanny for the last 12 years. I am also a certified medical assistant. I have worked with multiple families as a nanny and they have all become like family. I work part time for an amazing family right now and have been with them for the last five years but as their youngest is starting school soon the hours won’t be enough. I have a 3 year old daughter that I occasionally bring with me depending on the time of day. I have continued to do this for so long because I find it extremely rewarding. I have multiple references from past and current families I’ve worked for and I hopefully will meet more amazing families soon!

Hi my name is Emma. I am in the final chapter of my masters program in elementary education. By December 2025 I will be a certified elementary education teacher. I have worked with children in various children oriented establishments. For example, I have worked as a babysitter, nanny, ymca camp counselor, paraprofessional, and building substitute teacher. I have immensely enjoyed the many experiences I have had working with children. All of these children have taught me value knowledge along my journey to becoming a teacher. I look forward to working with a new bunch of children. Also, I have renewed my CPR and First Aid certification which is valid until 2027. My availability can be adjusted if needed.

Hi! My name is Raziya, and I have hands-on experience working in a daycare, where I cared for children of various ages in a structured and nurturing environment. My experience includes supervising playtime, assisting with meals, organizing engaging activities, and ensuring a safe and supportive atmosphere for children to learn and grow. Working in a daycare has given me valuable skills in child development, behavior management, and safety protocols. I have experience handling multiple children at once, fostering positive social interactions, and adapting activities to different age groups. I am in the process of being CPR/First Aid certified and trained in basic childcare safety. My background in a daycare setting has also equipped me with skills in emergency preparedness, conflict resolution, and age-appropriate learning techniques. I am passionate about providing a fun, safe, and enriching environment for children, and I look forward to bringing my experience and enthusiasm to babysitting opportunities!

I love being a sitter because I absolutely love all children and pets. I’ve worked with kids babysitting but also volunteering for a little league program. I am CPR and First Aid certified for all ages
