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!

Hi there! I recently earned my degree in early childhood education from Skagit & Highline College, and I have been caring for children for 5+ years as a childcare provider. I work with all ages such as newborns, infants, toddlers, preschool, and school age. I love working with young kids as I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. I want to be able to provide parents with someone trustworthy to care for their children.

I have years of experience working with children. I gained the majority of my experience with children working for Seattle Parks and Recreation and working for an independent school in Seattle. I enjoy what I do, therefore I am a very happy person. I love the freedom and flexibility of babysitting. I now work full time for King County Superior Court, but I love spending time with Children.

Hearther is the best! I've got a tough kid and she loves Heather. Specifically asks for her. In fact, I've recommended her to other families I know who have kids with big behaviors and they all love her too. Her ability to meet them in a playful spirt and still be the adult in charge makes such a difference. And, she truly loves our kids. She's always thinkng of activities or programs that my daughter could take advantage of. Highly recomend, Heather!

Maddy G., Child Care in Vashon, WA 98070 with 15 years of paid experience

I have eight years of experience as a preschool teacher and about 15 years of experience as a babysitter/nanny. As a preschool teacher, I worked with children aged 12 months to 5 years, caring for their basic needs and helping them with activities to develop their mental, social and emotional skills. I was a summer camp counselor for four years, which gave me a lot of experience with outdoor activities and crafts, and with interacting with children of all ages. I have babysat children aged 1 month to 12+ years. I am a positive person who believes in listening, having fun, and helping every child reach their full potential. I also previously worked as a home visitor, serving low-income families with children age birth to three. Now I recently got my Masters in Social Work and working during the day doing therapy with teens, but I am free to pick up evening and weekend babysitting! Looking forward to meeting you!

As first-time parents, entrusting our 3.5-week old newborn to a babysitter was a leap of faith, filled with natural apprehension. However, from the moment we began our search, Maddy stood out with her impressive qualifications. Our initial phone interview only deepened our admiration, and meeting her in person sealed the deal - we knew she was the perfect fit for our family. Returning home from our trial run, we were greeted by the most comforting sight: our little boy, soundly asleep in Maddy’s arms, with the soft melodies of classical music in the background. It was a moment of pure serenity and trust, leaving us with no doubt about Maddy’s exceptional caregiving skills. Maddy earns an unequivocal 5 out of 5 stars from us. To those considering her services, my advice is simple: act fast and book her as soon as you can. If not, you might just find that we’ve already called dibs for her next availability. Her blend of professionalism, warmth, and genuine care for children is a rare find. We are not only thrilled but also grateful to have Maddy as part of our child’s life. Without hesitation, we plan to hire her again and again. She’s not just a babysitter; she’s a wonderful addition to our family’s journey.

I love kids and am experienced with all ages. I currently teach in elementary. I have worked in an early learning daycare with infants to pre-k. I’m looking for some occasional babysitting jobs that would most likely be best for evenings, date nights, or on weekends. I am CPR certified.

Myka T., Child Care in Vashon, WA 98070 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello, I'm Myka! I'm a university student based in Tacoma, working towards my bachelor's degree in Developmental Psychology, which I plan to complete within the next year. Recently, I earned my Behavioral Therapy credentials and have had the chance to assist many families in the ABA community. As I return to school and step away from my role as a therapist, I'm hoping to find another family to work with during the academic year while I study full-time. With over seven years of experience caring for children of all ages, I have a strong background in childcare. I enjoy designing fun and engaging activities that promote learning and creativity, and I am always eager to help. I'd describe myself as outgoing, compassionate, and lively. In my free time, I love exploring the water with my golden doodle or trying out new recipes in the kitchen. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you soon! :)

Suzie C., Child Care in Vashon, WA 98070 with 24 years of paid experience

I have been babysitting ever since I was 12 years old. I wanted to give back for all the years that I had been taken care of. I took a specific course to become a babysitter and started to babysit my neighbors. I had heard about a course specifically for babysitting, so I took it. After that I was good to go to babysit the whole neighborhood. It worked out perfectly while I attended UC Davis. I graduated with two degrees in Dramatic Art and Design, and two minors in Chicano Studies and Education. I love to teach it and create new things. I am also a Spanish native speaker. I was born in a town near Mexico City. I am very interested in teaching kids what I have learned and also try to have fun with them. Every time I babysit I like to teach the kids something new. Currently, I am a pre-K teacher. I am loving, fun, and entertaining to be around. Teaching kiddos is my passion. It’s the beginning of a new beginning in education. Please ask what my availability is for the summer! Gracias

Suzie has been absolutely amazing! In only a couple weeks, she has taught my 16 month old a ton of new sign language and words that he is using regularly! She’s is genuinely excited and eager to play and teach him, and it’s like having our own personal Ms. Rachel. She keeps our LO so entertained and happy that he doesn’t even care if mom or dad leave the room. He became so comfortable with her so quickly, and is excited to see her every time. Even when he was unexpectedly sleeping in later, Suzie offered to help with some home organization until he woke up! She is so very helpful and it is so reassuring to know that my little one is in such great hands. Knowing he is so happy with her helps dissipate that ever lingering mom guilt when I’m away from him. I can’t say enough great things about Suzie.

I love being a sitter because it gives me the opportunity to connect with others, whether it’s pets, children, or elderly individuals. There’s something incredibly rewarding about providing care and seeing those I look after feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I enjoy the flexibility of the job, too, as it allows me to balance my time while helping others with their needs. It’s fulfilling to know that I’m offering peace of mind to families or pet owners. have experience in [pet sitting/babysitting/elderly care], where I’ve learned to manage tasks like feeding, administering medications, and providing companionship. Over time, I’ve gained confidence in caring for different individuals, whether it’s keeping pets entertained and active or helping children with their daily routines. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with families on various occasions, which has improved my ability to adapt to different needs and preferences. I have strong communication skills, which help me interact effectively with both the individuals I’m caring for and their families. I’m also trained in first aid and CPR, which I believe is an essential skill for any sitter. I have experience managing schedules and routines, especially with children or pets, and I’m good at keeping everything organized. I’m patient, compassionate, and enjoy being proactive in addressing any challenges that may arise, whether that’s calming an anxious pet or ensuring a child feels safe and secure.
