Whether you live in Ballard, Beacon Hill, or West Seattle, clear listings help you find a great match quickly.
For families
Share children's ages, routines, allergies, and interests. Add schedule needs, neighborhood, transportation notes, and a pay range. If pickups are part of the role, include times, car seat details, and parking tips. The more specific the post, the better the fit.
For sitters and nannies
List certifications like CPR and first aid, years of experience, and comfort with infants, multiples, or special needs. Mention languages, willingness to help with homework or meal prep, and whether you drive. A short note about your caregiving style helps families picture the day to day rhythm.
Safety and comfort
Arrange a video chat or public meetup before the first shift. Review emergency contacts, bedtime routines, screen time rules, and house guidelines. Keep a simple sheet for medications and allergies. During longer shifts, quick updates or a photo give parents peace of mind.
Specialized care
Some households need overnights, travel help, or sensory friendly activities. If you have specialized skills such as infant sleep routines or experience with neurodiverse children, highlight them so the right family can reach out faster.
Clear agreements
Confirm rate, overtime, cancellations, transportation reimbursement, and expectations about phone use or visitors. Respectful communication prevents misunderstandings and sets a professional tone for everyone.
