Meet college nannies and sitters from Catholic University of America

Hello! I’ve been providing childcare for a range of ages in the District for over 15 years. I am a social worker, artist, and love to be outside. I am high energy and find hanging out with children and entertaining them to be so much fun! I am very comfortable with animals as well, I love dogs! Currently I have some families I provide dog sitting for in their homes when they go on trips. I volunteer at an animal sanctuary farms and rescue shelters, comfortable with all types of animals. I use this app to connect with families to build good working relationships, and many families I currently work with have worked with me for many years. Unfortunately I cannot offer full time child care, but I am a great option for date nights or weekends.

I am a DC professional, and babysitting is my favorite side gig. I have been a babysitter since high school, caring for children of all ages with a friendly attitude. From this, I have the ability and willingness to change diapers, enforce bedtime, prepare food for picky eaters, and listen to the same story on repeat. Plus, I always come prepared with games, jokes, and a card trick or two. I’ve also tutored (ESL, German, and reading) off and on over the years and come from a family of teachers. NO CATS (I am allergic) but I love dogs and other animals.

Hello, My name is Izzy and I have been nannying for over a decade. I have A LOT of young nieces and nephews but beyond that, I’ve been working in childcare since I was a teenager. I like to make it a point early on to let my families know that I’m always willing to work on price points, my priority is a comfortable arrangement for everyone. I’ve volunteered and worked at a few summer camps in Los Angeles, I have experience nannying children from age 0-11, including special needs, over night stays, school pickup, meal prep, tutoring, light housework, multi child households, and many other aspects of childcare. I’m looking for part time work but I am super flexible! Ideally, I would love to find one family that I work for weekly with a set schedule.

I have worked in the professional nanny industry for close to fifteen years. Before that, I worked as an occasional babysitter and camp counselor. I’m certified in first aid and infant/child/adult CPR. I have an undergraduate degree in interdisciplinary studies (social science concentration) from The Catholic University of America. As well as a graduate certificate in human services from Wilmington University. I’m a patient and empathetic person. I think children have a contagious sense of wonder and happiness. They truly make the world a better place. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting jobs outside my regular nanny position. I look forward to hearing from you!
