Find experienced child care providers in Shoreline, WA

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. Thank you so much!

Howdy! My childcare career began about twelve years ago as a weekly volunteer and eventually as lead teacher at my church in San Antonio, Texas. It was there I met families that would become my very first clients. As time went by, my business grew fruitfully! I also began substitute teaching at ECC and elementary schools, including in special needs classrooms. In 2019, I returned to school to complete my bachelor’s degree in accounting. At this time, I babysat only for my most well established families, a few of which are my references. After graduating in December 2021, I moved to Austin for my first full-time accounting position. After a year however, a company-wide RIF impacted my position, which allowed me to think boldly about my next steps. I was happily given the opportunity to move here to the PNW to experience a whole new environment. I absolutely love the sprawling natural features that surround me! My new accounting position is full-time, but I've opened my schedule for weekday evening and weekend childcare to supplement my income. Sunday mornings I attend and serve at church, so I am available after 1:00 pm. - 12 years of childcare experience as a sitter, “manny,” tutor, substitute teacher, and volunteer - Experience caring for all ages, multiples, in-home and on outings - Experience in homes and classrooms of children with special needs - Flexible childcare style to be consistent with your family’s methods - Welcoming and open-minded to all family types and beliefs - Energetic and positive attitude towards learning and play - Safety conscious and always present in the moment - Pet friendly, zero allergies, non-smoker/drugs - CPR and first-aid certified I can provide enhanced background check results from 8/29/23. It is a bit pricey to renew so I've chosen not to. However, I'd gladly complete another check if a family wishes to purchase one on my behalf. Same for motor vehicle check (perfect driving record). I’m open to provide transportation for outings using my newly purchased SUV. I have an adjustable carseat and booster, or we can use yours. Trips to the park and playgrounds are my favorite! I’m looking forward to chatting with you about your family’s childcare needs. Feel free to send me a message any time!

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!

Hi, I’m Cameron! I have a strong background working with children through both professional and personal experiences. I’ve worked in ABA therapy, supporting children with developmental and behavioral needs, which has given me valuable skills in patience, communication, and structure. I’ve also spent years babysitting for families in my church community, building trusted relationships and caring for kids of various ages. I truly enjoy helping families by providing a safe, positive, and engaging environment for their children. Whether it’s playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I’m dependable, nurturing, and always focused on each child’s individual needs. I work for Lake Washington School District as a behavioral therapist and would love to assist your children in a fun nurturing environment!

Hello! My name is Rumana, and I'm an undergraduate pre-medical student at UW Seattle. I am located in Seattle and can conveniently get to anywhere close by, such as Capitol Hill, but also have a car and can travel farther (Bothell, Redmond, etc.) if needed. I love kids and hope to become a pediatrician one day! To me, working with children is incredibly fun and exciting—I love to engage their curiosity and sense of play as a babysitter and help them learn how to be respectful and kind as peers at the same time. I have experience working with kids of all ages, particularly between infants to around 11 years old. When babysitting, I typically help kids read books, play lots of games, as well as do arts and crafts in order to stimulate their imagination and creativity. I am happy to help with homework, light housekeeping, and any other responsibilities you might need me to do. I have 4 years of experience doing paid babysitting, and spent 2 years working for a family with three talkative and active kids aged 1, 3, and 5. I also babysat for many different families independently for an additional 2 years, and am super adaptable to a variety of kids! In terms of availability, I am typically available in the evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends, but I can be flexible if needed. Parenting is hard; the most fulfilling aspect of babysitting to me is helping your family maintain balance within your lives amidst busy schedules, and I sincerely hope to use my experience working with kids in my future career!
