Brian is awesome with kids. He genuinely wants to spend time with them and help them thrive and grow. He has watched our daughter on noumorous occasions and each time he comes up with fun acticities that keep her engaged. Whether its bunny hunting (the bunnies were not harmed) or coloring, Brian is there for it. And after visits my kiddo can't wait to go back.

Tanner F., Child Care in Seattle, WA 98115 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!

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. For a number of years I was a nanny in exchange for rent and did after hours care and evening and weekend routines with children 1 years old to age 10, including helping with chores and school work and getting them ready for bed. I enjoy doing cooking, dramatic play, and art with children and I make sure to get them some exercise and quiet time when with them for long stretches of time.

Rebecca sat for my 4 and 7 year old kids for an evening. She was communicative, professional and reliable. The kids were very comfortable with her as soon as she arrived. She has clearly spent a lot of time with children. I would highly recommend Rebecca!

Julie has been an amazing cat sitter for us. She has watched our cat many times now and has been consistently reliable, trustworthy, and paid attention to the important details. It's very apparent how much she loves spending time with our kitty and how seriously she takes a job. I'd highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for pet care!

Claire E., Child Care in Seattle, WA 98115 with 5 years of paid experience

My name is Claire Eberhard and I grew up in Seattle WA. I attended John Stanford International school, Hamilton, and Lincoln. During that time I attended a Japanese immersion program. I have always been interested in childhood development, in fact I read "Your baby and child from Birth to age 5" by Penelope Leach before I started babysitting. I then took a babysitters course and a CPR course, and I have been babysitting for different families since I was 14 years old. I am now 19 years old playing Soccer and majoring in Biology at Carleton College. The experience Ive had is both joyous and worth while. I very much enjoy children of all ages. Over the years I have taken care of children in elementary school, preschool and infants, and have taken 3 kids at the same time. Spending time with children is one of the things that fulfills me the most and I would love to have a steady babysitting job over the summer. My interest outside of childcare is Japanese (the language and the culture), playing soccer (I have coached at numerous soccer camps), baking, biology, reading, and going for runs and walks. When I am with children I like to make sure they are engaged in play, well nourished, and are able to rest/nap if that is part of their daily routine. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your family.

Claire helped us out on very short notice when our regular care provider was out unexpectedly. She was easy to communicate with and kept our toddler fed, happy, and entertained. Thanks again Claire!

Rebekah I., Child Care in Seattle, WA 98115 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.

Ian G., Child Care in Seattle, WA 98115 with 1 year of paid experience

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.
