I have experience with teens and pre-teens for about 4 years . I am experienced in helping out with homework from English , math, science and even art projects. I consider myself a hands on babysitter and will play inside or outside with kids or pets! Aid in sleep or dietary schedules necessary.

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's day through texts or phone calls, if desired, in addition to verbal communication at pickup. 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 childcare option for you.

Hello Everyone! My name is Emma and I am offering occasional babysitting services! I’m your typically 25 year old trying to make some extra income.I have my Associates of the Arts degree, Associates of the Arts in Teachers Education as well as a certificate in business management. I am ONLY available for occasional/date night babysitting opportunities in University Place/Tacoma/Lakewood area! *I am fully vaccinated against covid* I am currently employed at University Place School District as a Para-Educator in the Transitional Kindergarten program! With that I am only available for date night care. I am the oldest of 4 kids with all of many different ages (22,13 and 12). Way back to 2011 my dad lost his job when the economy tanked he went back to school while my mom was the only working and we had 2 big surprises pop up! She had my brother and my sister durning this time which made me grow into a bigger role of big sister/babysitter/2nd mom. Therefore I have experience with all ages and even children with disabilities. For 3 years I worked at the Morgan YMCA teaching swim lessons to all ages (6months-adults), did lifeguarding and also participated in a swim program called Swimming for Exceptional Children. I am no longer certified still in lifeguarding. However, I am certified in CPR/AED, First Aid, and Oxygen. Through my previous job at the Morgan YMCA I have taking training courses such as child abuse prevention, sexual harassment, blood born pathogens, hazard communication, ALICE, listen first and much more. I am non-smoking, have references, have access to a car/have a license, as well as willing to take a background check or do an interview prior to occasional babysitting gig.

Hello Parents and Guardians, My name is Catherine, and I am 26 years old. I have been babysitting since I was 10, taking care of children for family, friends, and neighbors. From 2014 to 2017, I worked as both a teacher and babysitter at my church, and I have experience as a teacher's secretary for kindergarten, first grade, and sixth grade. I am comfortable working with children ranging from newborns to 13 years old. My goal is to create a safe and enjoyable environment for the children in my care. I understand that children are incredibly precious to their parents, and being apart can be challenging for both parents and children, whether it’s for work, date nights, or personal time. That is why it is crucial to have a trustworthy caregiver. I want to assure you that I will love, care for, and protect your child as if they were my own. I will engage children in various activities, including reading books, having conversations, singing and dancing, doing arts and crafts, and creating games or pretend play, such as cooking or teaching. If needed, I can also prepare meals or bake for them. I am CPR certified and hold a food handler's card, and I have completed early childhood education certification. I am also comfortable working with pets around. Thank you for considering me! Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
