Meet college nannies and sitters from George Washington University

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m currently a law student at USC. I’m excited to spend my summer helping families with dependable, attentive, and engaging childcare. I’ve always loved working with children and have experience through tutoring, as well as growing up as 1 of 10 kids with many nieces and nephews. Being part of a big family has given me plenty of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. Whether that means helping with homework, reading stories, getting creative with arts and crafts, exploring at the park, or doing mini science experiments, I love finding activities that keep children engaged and excited to learn. I’m responsible, organized, patient, and comfortable balancing busy schedules and high levels of responsibility. I’m happy to help wherever needed, whether that’s preparing simple meals, keeping routines on track, or lending an extra set of hands to make your family’s day run more smoothly. I also understand how important trust and communication are when it comes to childcare, and I strive to make both parents and children feel supported and at ease. I’m also very comfortable around pets! As the proud owner of a Saint Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog, I have plenty of experience caring for large dogs and would be happy to help in pet-friendly households (including homes with cats!). I would love the opportunity to connect with your family this summer and provide a caring, reliable presence for your children!

Hi! My name is Zoleiry, or Zol, and I have 15 years of experience caring for infants and children, including working at children’s museums and summer camps. I’m fluent in both Spanish and English and am currently learning ASL. With my extensive experience and CPR/first aid certification, I’d love the opportunity to be your family’s next babysitter! I work full-time as a Hill staffer for an Illinois Member and have been living in DC since 2017. I babysit and provide pet care on the side to help pay down my student loans while doing work I genuinely enjoy. In my free time, I love spending time with friends, knitting, and walking dogs. I’m passionate about animals, education policy, and child development research. Looking forward to connecting with you and your little ones!

Hi, my name is Aina and I am a rising third year at George Washington University. I am currently based in Atlanta for the summer and am looking for occasional babysitting opportunities with children ranging from 2-12 years old. When it comes to child care I have been babysitting for two years in the Atlanta and D.C. area. In addition, I have one full year's worth of experience being an after school teacher for kindergartners and first graders at East Valley Elementary school in Marietta, Georgia. At that job, myself along with a co teacher were responsible for upwards of 20 students each day and in a school environment, that was quite manageable, and I know it'd be an even more enjoyable experience if I had more attention to give to fewer children. I also have college experience part time babysitting with multiple families, three of them who I worked with on a consistent basis. I have lots of energy to give when it comes to caring for children and I can find creative ways to keep them engaged and entertained. Working with children is rewarding for me because I remember how much the adults, beyond my parents helped create wonderful memories during my childhood. I hope to provide that same positive impact for others. I used to own a dog for many years and I am comfortable babysitting in pet households so I also have experience with pet care.

🌁 Hi! I’m a native San Franciscan back after twenty years in Hawaii. I began my nannying career in Y2K, and have cared for little ones (newborns- 5 years) since then in San Francisco, Marin, and Maui. 🐣 Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of nurturing children from infancy through adolescence, including my goddaughter, who is aspirationally kind and thoughtful. 🩵 I bring an empathetic, warm, and grounded presence into the home, and always try to grow the giggles! I aim to create a safe, loving environment for children to feel confident, secure, and seen. 🎨 Trained in ballet, hula, acting, and visual arts, I love to encourage imagination and creative self-expression. 💬 With a background in public relations, I’m highly communicative, discreet, organized, and dependable. 🦺 My driver license, vaccination records (COVID x2/ MMR/ Tdap), and background checks (LiveScan, Checkr) are available upon request. ✈️ I'm able to travel with your family (USA Passport/ CLEAR/ TSA Pre-Check). 🌸 Please feel free to message me about availability, rates, or anything else; I can usually reply immediately. I look forward to connecting with your family! Aloha!

Hello my name is Samara! I have over 10+ years of experience babysitting toddlers to teens. I have special experience babysitting children with ADD and ADHD. I was a volunteer at The Ronald McDonald House and completed 100 hours of community service. One of my main task was to assist in the operations of Kids Club where I organized educational and artistic activities as well as interactive games for kids in the club. I also volunteered for a program that aimed to empower young women ages 11-14. The program focused on their social and emotional development and events were tailored to enhancing academic skill, promoting self-esteem and community service and encouraging personal growth. Fun fact: I am artistic and a bookworm. I love to paint, draw, and explore New York!

Hi - my name is Tiffany and I am a dog mom living in Navy Yard. I am currently work a full time position but am available to work weekends and occasional holidays/ weekdays (please check my calendar/ message me for more information). I have been babysitting through Urban Sitter since 2018 but I’ve been working with kids since I was 15. During high school, I volunteered at my local hospital: mostly in the fitness center day care with children ranging from 10 months-12 Years. In college I have worked with after school enrichment programs with bilingual children, at a Q?rius assistant at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History and as a summer camp counselor at my local YMCA summer camp where I worked with kids 4-12 years old, but particularly watched over 5-7 year olds. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and studied Italian at school. I like to bake and am a huge Disney fanatic. I am also good with pets (grew up with four dogs, as well as a rabbit, birds and fish) and love spend time with my dog on my free time.

Hi, I'm Jazmine! I have 10 years of experience with children, 9 years of experience with children under 3 and 7 years of experience with infants under 1. I am BLS CPR certified and proficient in Spanish. I tend to take a screen-free approach, unless the parents say otherwise, to encourage creativity and flexible thinking. I believe in developing a sense of trust, communication and respect with all families I work with. If you have any pets, I can make sure that their needs are met as well. Additionally, I am not opposed to doing light housework (laundry, dishes, tidying up), to keep things running smoothly once I depart. I am available for occasional date nights, ad hoc days, and overnights. Like what you see? I hope to hear from you soon!!!

Hello, I'm Sharonda! I recently began a doctoral program studying curriculum and instruction. I have a Master of Arts in Teaching English from Trinity Washington University, and love enriching literacy activities that engage learners in a variety of ways. I've tutored, taught, and volunteered with elementary and secondary aged children, locally and internationally, for the past 9 years. I love providing childcare because I find interacting with children to be joyous and rewarding. Children are adventurous, have a great sense of humor, and bring many opportunities for learning and exploration because of their curiosity. As one who is passionate about education, building healthy connections with children is an essential practice. In my spare time, I love creative writing (short stories, essays, and poetry), reading (especially in libraries, boutique bookstores), crafting (jewelry making, drawing/coloring, and DIY projects), spending time outdoors, and occasionally watching television programs about travel and nature (I'm also a Marvel fan). If there is any additional information you'd like to receive, please don't hesitate to request it.

I book primarily offline but use UrbanSitter as a resource to meet new, wonderful families. Im so fortunate to have been connected to so many incredible families through this platform! 📱I follow parent lead regarding tech and TV.

Hi! As the oldest of three children and a previous after-school instructor, writing tutor, and nanny, I am a caregiver at heart. Raised in Mexico and later Las Vegas, NV, I am fluent in Spanish, currently a law student, love exercising, and hold a passion for cooking delicious (and traditional) Mexican cuisine. As a former tutor, I am passionate about the art of language and writing. I have experience tutoring Kindergarten through college level students and believe every child deserves individualized care and respect. My caregiving experience is vast, from serving as a formal nanny, to raising my own younger siblings with attentiveness, thoughtfulness, and care. I further believe every home deserves respect, and offer housekeeping services as well. I am committed to serving you and your family.
