We describe searches for decays of B mesons to the charmless final states {eta}{sup '}{eta}{sup '}K. The data consist of 228x10{sup 6} BB pairs produced in e{sup +}e{sup -} annihilation, collected with the BABAR detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The 90% confidence level upper limits for the branching fractions are B(B{sup 0}{yields}{eta}{sup '}{eta}{sup '}K{sup 0})<31x10{sup -6} and B(B{sup +}{yields}{eta}{sup '}{eta}{sup '}K{sup +})<25x10{sup -6}.
