Naftali
Hi! I'm a student at UW, and an experienced babysitter. I have been babysitting for several years, and have worked as a teacher and camp counselor. I love doing crafts, reading, and going on adventures. Can provide references on request :)

Ellie
Hi! I’m Ellie. I am currently a senior at UW Seattle studying psychology. I have previous experience working at a summer camp, swimming lessons, and gymnastics lessons. I also used to baby sit and dog sit (so if you have pets I’d love to also care for them).

Zella
My name is Zella. I am a current freshman in college. I have experience working with families as well as looking after younger siblings (I am the oldest of 3 boys). I have experience working with children with autism, Tourette’s, as well as ADHD. I, myself am dyslexic and happy to help little ones (with and without learning disabilities) with school work. In addition to my childcare experience, I also worked as a nurse’s aide (CNA) in a long-term care home but am currently focused on school. I love spending time with kids as they are beautiful reminders of both the joys and chaos of life. I am used to the high energy of my home but also work well with kids who enjoy quieter fun, as I was one of these kids.

AnnMarie
Hello! My name is AnnMarie! I’m a dependable and creative babysitter with experience as a toddler assistant teacher in a Montessori school. I’m also the oldest of six children, so I’ve spent a lifetime caring for and helping raise my younger siblings — my youngest sister is seven, and we still spend time together each week creating art, playing games, doing homework, and reading books. As both an artist and a big sister, I love offering screen-free, engaging activities like drawing, crafting, storytelling, and even singing together while I play guitar. When the weather allows, I enjoy spending time outdoors exploring, encouraging curiosity, and helping children discover the world around them. I’m patient, responsible, and deeply caring about children’s well-being — both their safety and emotional growth. Families describe me as positive, creative, and calm under pressure. I hope to bring my positivity, creativity, and care to your family by helping maintain your routines, fostering imagination, and ensuring your child feels safe, supported, and happy.

gazelle Joy
For over five years, I have dedicated myself to working with the same family and children, driven by deep passion for helping them thrive. My focus is on creating meaningful ways to support their development, including offering tutorial sessions tailored to enhance brain development and ensure they achieve key developmental milestones. I take great care in understanding each child’s unique needs, learning styles and abilities to provide individualized guidance. Additionally, I organize leisure activities that promote mental health, fostering well-rounded growth and well-being for the children in my care.

Trey
I raised 2 kids and help my sister with her 2 kids during the summer. In addition to childcare, I can help with dogs, cats, homework, driving, and cooking. I love spending time outside taking walks and hiking. I also love board games, puzzles, and other indoor activities. I'm patient, fun but firm, creative, and trustworthy. I have CPR training and Youth Protection trainging from volunteering with SPS and Scouting America.

Shante
I think I love caring for families and children so much is because I was raised in a big family. Being the eldest sibling plays a big role in how I must set the tone for others. I'm responsible yet very playful as well as attentive. I have experience with all age ranges, dietary needs, physical/mental needs, and different culture backgrounds. I love to send updates to give extra assurance to any family whether I've been with them long term or not. I'm here to let you as a parent be free and at ease with the well-being of your love one.

Ashley
Bringing two decades of childcare experience, I'm passionate about creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children. I am a mom myself, of both a teenager a toddler. I hold a B. A. in Special Education and am comfortable caring for multiple children. I am patient, creative, and friendly. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules. Communication with you is a priority; I will provide updates via text, phone, or your preferred method. I am CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. I am fully vaccinated with COVID/boosters, flu, and Tdap. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I look forward to bringing my experience and enthusiasm to your family.

Savannah
I have a strong background in childcare that combines hands-on experience with my academic studies. I am currently a junior at Grand Canyon University, majoring in Elementary Education and Special Education, which has given me a solid understanding of child development, classroom management, and supporting diverse learners. I am originally from Washington State and have been babysitting for five years, caring for children ranging from 4 months to 10 years old. Through this, I’ve gained experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I have also tutored students in grades 1–3, helping them with reading, writing, and math skills. In addition, I’ve volunteered at various elementary schools and autism programs, which has strengthened my ability to work with children of all needs and learning styles. These experiences have prepared me to provide safe, patient, and engaging care for every child I work with.
