I am a child care teacher, nanny, and now mom to a high school senior in. I work as a school district ECE teacher Sept-June and am doing some Weekend care for extra money.

Fun, Caring Babysitter | Weeknights & Weekends Available Hi families! My name is Brittany, and I’m a reliable and caring babysitter with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages from infants and toddlers to school-aged kids. I currently work full-time as a Special Education Instructional Assistant at a middle school, and I love spending my evenings and weekends providing quality childcare for families. My babysitting hours are flexible. I’m available for both routine or occasional care, weekday evenings, and weekends. My babysitting style is fun, engaging, and attentive. I enjoy reading, singing, playing games, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for kids. I’m also experienced with bedtime routines, meal prep, and keeping children on track with their schedules. Whether you need an occasional date-night sitter or regular evening/weekend support, I’m happy to help. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have reliable transportation, and come with excellent references from families I’ve worked with for years. My goal is always to make sure your children feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind.

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. My schedule: Evenings on weekdays - 7:30pm to 1am. Weekends anytime. My rate is $33/hour for 1 child $35/hour for 2 & 3 children and $ 40 for 4. I can care for up to 6 children in a sitting. (Rates negotiable) Thank you so much!

I enjoy engaging with children of all ages in safe, fun and educational activities. I worked at a busy kid's club for 18 years with children ranging in age between 6 months and 12 years old. I currently work with children at a nursery. I have held a wide range of babysitting jobs. I have a number of clients who request me regularly.

Hi! I’m a pre-nursing student who has completed my CNA course and Basic Life Support (BLS) training. I also completed my clinicals at Northwest UW Medical Center, where I gained hands-on experience providing compassionate care in a professional healthcare setting. I’m also a volunteer at Seattle Children’s Hospital, where I have the opportunity to spend time supporting and engaging with children in a pediatric healthcare environment. In addition to my healthcare background, I have paid childcare experience caring for children ranging from 11 months old through elementary school age. I have references available upon request from families I’ve worked with. I’m currently working toward earning my BSN in pediatric nursing because I’m passionate about caring for children. Along with my paid experience, I come from a big family and have spent years helping care for younger relatives, giving me confidence working with children of different ages and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, dependable, and strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s engaging in age-appropriate activities, helping with meals, bedtime routines, homework, or simply providing attentive care, I always make each child’s well-being my top priority. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

Hi my name is Abby Raschkow and I go to Seattle pacific university and I am studying nursing.

Hello Everyone! My name is Karen. I have been a Special Education teacher for 12 years now, 11 years in NYC Department of Education and 1 year in Seattle Public Schools.

I would describe myself as a very loving person, honest, kind, I am a huge animal lover, 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

Im patient, gentle, responsive, child-led calm natured and I love being outside. Im experienced and comfortable with attuning to infant cues, providing developmentally appropriate opportunities for play and learning, and establishing firm loving boundaries.

I’m a dependable, patient, and easygoing dad to a 1-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy, so I understand firsthand how important trust, safety, and consistency are when it comes to childcare. I’m comfortable helping with day-to-day routines like meals, playtime, homework help, bedtime routines, and keeping things tidy while making sure kids stay engaged and cared for. I’m especially good at staying calm under pressure, communicating clearly, and adapting to different personalities and family routines. I know every child is different, and I try to create an environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and safe. I’m also comfortable around pets, helping with light household tasks if needed, and handling higher-energy kids with patience and structure. My goal is to be someone families can genuinely rely on and feel good about having around their home.
