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 was amazing! We hired her for a last-minute wedding, and she was responsible, fun, and immediately comfortable interacting with our toddler. He had a great time and we will definitely be contacting her for future gigs.

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!

I have many years experience caring for children of all ages professionally. I have a clean background and reliable transportation. I have worked as a caregiver for the past 15 years helping elderly and disabled clients in their homes. I'm also a mom of a 27 year old son and 18 year old daughter and grandmother of 1 year old granddaughter 🙂 I love to cook making healthy meals and snacks, keeping homes clean and tidy, do arts/crafts, play games/ do puzzles and read books/watch movies occasionally and going to play outside in the fresh air when weather is decent. I enjoy pets and helping with them as well if needed. I'm flexible about days and times and for date nights too. I could even do overnights as well with a days advance notice if you need a weekend getaway. Please reach out if you are interested in meeting with me. Thanks Teresa😊

Teresa is wonderful! Our son loves her and she's great with him. She's very good at doing lots of different activities with him, so he's not just watching TV all day. I highly recommend her.

Lesley is awesome! While our 8month old can be very cranky due to teething and being tired post nap, Lesley has been great engaging with her and reads and plays and sings to our baby! Will definitely keep using her

Hi, I'm Cat! With over five years of experience caring for children of all ages, I bring creativity, enthusiasm, and a whole lot of fun to every family I work with. From soothing newborns to helping older kids conquer their schoolwork, I genuinely love every stage of childhood. I have plenty of experience with twins as I previously nannied for a family with twin boys from the time they were 3 until they were 6. My sister also has 7 year old boy/girl twins and being their aunt is genuinely one of my greatest joys in life. By some crazy coincidence, two of my closest friends also have twins that I have babysat plenty of times! I'm also an experienced math tutor, so I can definitely help with homework if needed. I'm dependable, communicative, and treat every home I work in with respect. References are available upon request, and I'd love to connect to find out if I'm the right fit for your family!

Cat took care of our 5 month old full time for 2 months as I transitioned back to work. We are so lucky we found her and my son absolutely adores her!! Cat has been very punctual, keeps us updated and is incredibly caring and frankly gets him to nap better than I can. She has such a fun personality and very trustworthy in our home with our little guy. <3

I love to cook, paint, sing/dance, even though I’m not the best at it lol My friends and family would describe me as outgoing, adventurous and youthful, which is a great trait for working with the little ones !! Ive been a nanny for about a 4yrs and baby sat for as long as I can remember. Children have always been my passion, I’m a nurturer by default and I wouldn’t change that for anything in the world :) I am certified as a Labor Doula with CPR/First Aid certification to compliment.

Dylan C.
- 15 years paid experience

Hi- My name is Dylan! I enjoy partnering with parents to ensure children receive the nurturing, consistency, care, and fun they need. I am a kid at heart and love to get down on the floor (or up in a play structure) to play with kids, encouraging their imagination, doing age appropriate science and art projects, adventuring outdoors, and facilitating their brain development through play, reading, and singing. It is important to me to model empathy, respect, and acceptance with the goal of empowering children to solve problems. Additionally, I am very skilled at multi-tasking and time management to ensure the safety and well being of all children in my care. Biggest strength: I give kids the attention they deserve! I am regularly referred to by parents as the 'kid whisperer' or 'Pied Piper.' While some believe I have magical powers (especially toddlers!), in truth, I am simply present and attuned to their needs and wants, through the laughter and tears. Experience: I have over 15 years experience as a babysitter and nanny for children birth to 17 years of age, providing care for up to 5 children at a time both in the family's home and traveling. The majority of my experience is with infants and toddlers. I have volunteered as a child care provider for Pinay sa Seattle, co-facilitating a childcare group during meetings and events for up to 8 children ages 8 months-7 years. Additionally, I have experience as a birth and postpartum doula. I have worked with single parent and blended families, have experience with twins, triplets, ADD/ADHD, autism, food allergies, trauma, and preemie infant health issues. Education: BA in Liberal Arts: Leadership & Human Services, Antioch University - Seattle, 2014 Somatics Practitioner Training, Generative Somatics, 2018 Embodied Social Justice Certificate, The Embody Lab, 2022 Newborn Care Specialist, DNT Network, 2025 Infant Sleep Consultant, DNT Network, 2025 Infant/Child CPR/First Aid, renewed 12/25 COVID/Flu boosters, Fall 2025 TDap, current Work History: 8+ years in social work directly supporting homeless youth and adults living with mental illness, substance use disorder, and disabilities

Would definitely hire Dylan again! He arrived right on time, and from the moment he walked through the door was a delight. He cared for our son with a very positive attitude. We really appreciate the enthusiasm he brought - which was essential, as our son is a bundle of energy! We loved the photo updates throughout the day, and we were impressed by the creativity Dylan brought to providing entertainment to our 7 month old.
