Hello! My name is Maya and I currently live in Bellevue. I’m originally from Honolulu, Hawaii but I moved to Washington in 2020 for school, and I graduated from UW in 2024 with my B.S in speech and hearing sciences! I worked at an early childcare center with infants-pre-k children from 2021-2024 and have babysat since 2021. I am currently CPR/First-Aid certified. I currently work as a speech therapist in a pediatric therapy clinic where I provide services to children between the ages of 3-12! I have the amazing opportunity to work very closely and co-treat with occupational therapists and mental health therapists so I have been able to learn some strategies from therm. I previously worked providing speech therapy for a school district where I got to collaborate with resource, life skills, and SEL teachers so I am very familiar with various SpEd departments!

We had a wonderful experience with Maya. She was kind, patient, and immediately connected with our 6‑year‑old. She kept him engaged with games, dinner, and a smooth bedtime routine. We came home to a happy kiddo and a calm house. We would absolutely hire her again!

For over 20 years, I've worked as a nanny, household manager, part-time sitter, Montessori and social-emotional preschool teacher, and arts enrichment facilitator for kids of all ages. I taught infant/toddler music and movement classes for two years, and I've been a youth mentor and youth volunteer manager. I love meeting new families and supporting their unique needs. Whether I'm spending quiet time at home with the kiddos, going for walks, picking up kids from school and delivering them to activities, helping with homework, running errands, facilitating playdates, or lending a hand with household chores—I'm here for it! I spent 10 years as a communications specialist for community-based nonprofits and I previously worked in tech. I'm also a singer/songwriter and performer. My skills and experience are well-rounded, and my personality and work style reflect that. I enjoy the flexibility of being a sitter at this stage in my life and feel grateful to do work that allows time for other activities. When I'm not caregiving, I'm paddle boarding, beach-combing, spending time with family, my husband, and rescue dogs in our Beacon Hill home of 20 years. I can also be found volunteering in my community (and at the NW Chimpanzee Sanctuary!). I have extensive experience with infant (including newborns), toddler, and school-aged kids; I've cared for multiple sets of twins; and I've worked with children on the spectrum and kids with developmental delays and other special needs. I've supported families through many difficult circumstances from divorce to serious illness. I'm deeply empathetic, proactive and agile as an extended member of a family support team, and I try to find a way to have fun no matter what I'm doing. I look forward to meeting you and supporting your family! Warmly, Jessie PS: I have a reliable car and clean driving record, and I'm happy to provide professional references from families I've worked for in the Seattle area upon request. My rate is flexible and depends entirely on the particulars of the job.

Trust you and your kids will have the absolute best time with Jessie McKenna! Jessie was our first nanny and took care of my infant for over a year until he started nursery school, and then we hired Jessie to take care of the now toddler and second baby, which she took to immediately. She planned fun activities for the kids, made sure they ate and napped responsibly, and I always came home knowing my kids were happy and content (and not as excited to see me, which, let's be honest, is every mom's dream when you have someone caring for your kids that prefer them over you!) Jessie has been a part of our family for over a decade, and my now grown up kids adore her still and talk fondly about their time with her. I have recommended Jessie to my friends who have younger children and their experience has been just as good as mine was. If I could give Jessie 10 stars, I absolutely would. There are lots of care givers out there, but only one Jessie and I feel blessed every day that we got her for the most transformative years of our kids lives. Claire Newman

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.

Hello Everyone, My name is Karen. I just completed my 11th year of teaching Special Education teacher for the NYC Board of Education. The last 4 of the 12 years I taught Art specifically 🎨. I worked primarily with students diagnosed with Autism but have experience babysitting/tutoring/nanny-ing children of all ages and abilities ranging from 1 to 16 years of age. I've taken a little pause on teaching this year to explore some exciting creative endeavors, as well as go on a fun adventure to the West Coast! However, I would still love the opportunity to work with children in some capacity 😊 I would describe myself as a very loving person, honest, kind, I am a huge animal, passionate about loving our planet, and above all a big kid who likes to be goofy and fun. Please reach out with any questions you may have! Hope to speak with you soon. Warmly, Karen

Karen watched my 1-year-old a few times. My daughter absolutely loved her. She took great care of her and would send me updates throughout the day while I was at work. Karen is very sweet and caring. She communicates very well and is always on time. Unfortunately, my schedule changed, and we no longer have her, but I would absolutely recommend her Karen was wonderful!

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.
