A little bit about me
I'm fourteen, male, intelligent, good with people, and at the top of my classes. Looking for some work to do to better my future. I have a 4 year-old baby sister that I am excellent in caring for. I am personable and friendly, and know how to get children to comply with things that are needed from them. I know how to talk to kids as I still am one myself, yet will be firm in the right areas if need-be (e.g. preventing a kid from performing forbidden activities, etc).
I will respect any and all boundaries and directions you put in place for me. I can promise you a satisfactory job. I suggest not making me work with people above 11, as I may be seen as an equal rather than a caregiver. I am a bit small for my age after all. (5'2")

A little bit about me
Hi there! I’m Hayden — a dependable incoming college freshman studying psychology. I currently work as a professional caregiver at Right at Home, where I support clients with daily routines, safety, and companionship. This role has really strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to stay calm under pressure, all of which I bring into every caregiving situation.
I have a bubbly personality, a strong work ethic, and genuine empathy. I follow routines well, create a safe and supportive space, and always make sure those I care for feel respected and heard. Families can count on me to be reliable, responsible, and kind.
In my free time, I love hiking with friends, listening to music, plant shopping, and being social. I connect easily with others and truly enjoy building positive relationships with the people around me.

"I can’t recommend Hayden enough! As a single parent, finding someone I trust to care for my five-year-old daughter is everything, and Hayden exceeded all expectations. She was warm, dependable, and truly engaged with my daughter every time she came over. They played games, she cooked meals, and most importantly, my daughter absolutely adored her and always looked forward to her visits. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my child was safe, happy, and cared for. I also really appreciated Hayden’s flexibility with scheduling, which made things so much easier for me. She’s a total gem and I highly recommend her!"

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Emily! I am 22 years old and a recent graduated from University of Puget Sound. I now have my bachelors in Kinesology and Neuroscience and plan on applying to medical school in three years.
I love reading, the outdoors, and I have the most adorable cat!
I have a car to commute to you! I would be open to one time coverage or a long-term position.
I started babysitting when I was 13 (ages ranging from infant to 10. years old) and became a camp counselor at 17. Here, at camp, I spent 8 weeks of the summer with a cabin of ~12 campers ages 13-15 years old. I do, however, have experience working with all ages. At 15 years old, my family adopted newborn twins and I was a crucial part of their upbringing. I have a car to commute to you! I am graduating in May, but am planning on staying in the Seattle area post-graduation, and I would be able to move to full-time in the summer!
