Find experienced child care providers in Suquamish, WA

* 23 years old. * 8 years experience. I’ve shaped my nannying career around my upbringing. As an eldest sibling of 5 and eldest cousin of 20, I’ve always prided myself as a role model and caretaker of children. At 12 years old I started babysitting, and at 15 I started professionally nannying, giving me 8 years of professional experience, specializing in infant/toddler care. (I now take my 15 month old son to my nanny bookings.) Through positive reinforcement, encouraging authenticity, and providing a safe space for children, physically and emotionally, children thrive in my care. I stay emotionally grounded for children to experience the full range of their emotions. Being the the true adventure guide, I always inspire children to explore their curiosity. Being in a large urban area, I understand how important it is to do that in a safe manner. Staying aware of our surroundings at all times, I consistently uphold methods of safety awareness and take pleasure in teaching children how we do that as a team. My favorite activity to do with children is explore outside! All in all, It’s important to me to teach children how to have self responsibility, manners, and accountability through leading by example. By empowering them through everyday tasks completed together and teaching them practical life skills, their confidence grows day by day. I look forward to growing with you and your family!

Hi there! I’m Isabel (I also go by Isa), I’m a recent college grad from Cornish where I studied theatre. I have been babysitting and working as a camp counselor over the summers for several years. I am first aid and CPR certified and experienced with a wide age range of kids. I am also a animal lover so I am happy to help with pets if needed! I am adaptable and easy going so I can work with your individual child’s needs. I like doing arts and crafts with kids and playing outside.

Hello! The name is Shannon! I am a current social work grad student at UW, therapist intern and former Early Learning Specialist and Family Educator with Children’s Home Society. I am recently looking for a morning drop off position, an afternoon part time position and/or an all day position for Fridays. I recent had to step down from my full time work at Children’s Home Society to focus on my internship as a therapist during the day. I have over five years of professional childcare experience working as a lead teacher for infants and toddlers for four years and working as a nanny for a year. I have babysat for many families for over a decade and have been with Sittercity since 2016. I have experience transporting children both in car and in small buses. I am CPR/ First Aid trained (recently renewed), I have a large amount of knowledge about child development, I’m fully vaccinated including recently getting the flu shot and soon to be getting a Covid booster per UW requirements. I can provide a background check and reference. I can’t wait to connect with you and your family! :)

Hi! I have a BSc in Psychology (minors Sociology, English) and a MSc in Developmental Psychology from a year abroad in the UK. Before studying in the UK, I LOVED working with young children and families at a early learning daycare center. I was hired as the lead toddler teacher (working primarily with 12-24 month olds) and ended up working as the assistant director; this was great administrative and early childhood education experience, and I worked with all ages at the preschool (infancy - school age). I’ve also babysat for years and nannied since returning from my recent studies. My favorite ages to play with, sing to, and teach about life are definitely infancy - two years. With a background in psychological and lifespan human development, my approach is rooted in supporting children's cognitive, socio-emotional, behavioral, and physical growth while promoting independence and self-esteem. I love to do this by engaging in fun developmentally appropriate play - crafts, musical, sensory, imaginative play, etc. - and by demonstrating to children that I am a safe adult who will respect and advocate for them, give structured support (i.e., follow through on commitments, hold boundaries, etc.), and provide them space to build trust in our relationship. I apply these practices age appropriately and adapt them to the child, as infants and younger toddlers, for example, require might more physical affection (snuggles, rocking to sleep) than school age kids. I am putting out feelers to keep working with young children while I decide if I will apply for PhD program or other position in my field. I will communicate transparently about these changes, as I know how important it is for you (and me) to build consistency in relationships with littles. In the mean time, however, I can provide reliable, quality care or help you out in a pinch if yours falls through or you are looking to try out a new sitter :)

Hi! My name is Montana. I am mostly looking for one-time childcare positions. I am available immediately with open availability! I have 5+ years of experience that comes from working as a nanny, working at youth summer camps, taking care of younger siblings, and babysitting. I have reliable transportation and am located in the Seattle area. I am also comfortable with pets in the home. ☺️ I will not do one-time/occasional sits for sick children - only long term families that I nanny for. If a child is sick upon my arrival for a babysitting visit, I will not be able to stay for the evening. Thank you for understanding.

Hi! I am 24 years old and I have been a certified babysitter for 13 years, was a camp counselor for 7 summers for kids ages 4-13, and I have been a nanny/household manager for the past 2 years. I am CPR/First aid certified for both adults and children and have experience working with challenging kids and kids with special needs (Down's Syndrome, ADHD, autism, anxiety, ODD). I am a Registered Behavior Therapist and have 1 year of experience doing trauma-informed applied behavioral therapy with autistic children. I have a psychology degree from UC Davis and took child development courses, which, along with my extensive hands-on childcare experience, has greatly informed my parenting philosophies. I practice authoritative (not authoritarian), gentle, and attachment parenting and encourage autonomy, independence, confidence, emotional expression and regulation. I love playing indoor and outdoor games with kids and helping with homework and I love to cook and do arts and crafts. I also love animals and am willing to do light child-related housework. I can send my formal resumé upon request. Please feel free to message me if you think we’d be a good fit! ***Potty trained kids only***

Hi! I’m Rafaella — a caring, reliable, and experienced sitter with over 6 years of childcare experience. I truly love working with children and feel honored to be a part of their development and everyday moments. My journey started in Brazil, where I worked at a daycare and volunteered with 4–5-year-olds at my church. I later spent 2 years as an au pair in the U.S., caring for children ranging from 6 months to 8 years old. Those years helped me build strong skills in nurturing routines, supporting milestones, and creating a safe, fun environment for kids to grow. Currently, I’m working with a family caring for their sweet baby — I started when he was just 5 months old, and now he’s a happy, active 1-year-old! I’m experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-age kids, and I always bring patience, creativity, and responsibility to every family I work with. Whether it’s reading stories, planning activities, or helping with naps and meals, I’m here to support your child’s needs with love and care. Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Hi! My name is Milagros, and I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic childcare provider with over 5 years of experience working with children of different ages. I’m originally from Argentina and currently based in Seattle.

I’m very attentive, organized, and calm under pressure, and I truly value building trust with both parents and children. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your child with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a clean driving record, and I always aim to create a positive, structured, and loving environment where kids feel safe, seen, and supported. I’m happy to adapt to each family’s needs and parenting style, and I communicate clearly and openly. I genuinely enjoy working with children and being a supportive presence in their growth and daily life. I’d love to connect and see if I could be a good fit for your family!
