Hello Families, My name is Jaylyn , and I’m excited to share a bit about myself as I apply for summer babysitting and nanny opportunities.

Through my work in schools and dance programs, I’ve developed strong skills in classroom management, child engagement, and creating safe, structured, and joyful environments. I love incorporating creativity, movement, and fun learning activities into children’s daily routines, while also understanding the importance of consistency, patience, and clear communication. Some of my qualifications and strengths include: • Experience as a guest teacher and substitute teacher in public and private schools • Background in dance education, creative movement, and youth development • Strong organizational and time-management skills • Calm, patient, and nurturing personality • Reliable, punctual, and responsible • Comfortable assisting with homework, meals, bedtime routines, and light household support Families often describe me as warm, attentive, energetic, and trustworthy.

Casey 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lanham, MD

Hello, I’m Casey! Like many others in DC, I was recently laid off. I’m using this as a chance to take a break from 9-5 desk life, pursue other passions, and spend time with loved ones. During this break, I’m eager to get back into childcare, which I did during and after college, and absolutely loved. I have experience with kids from a few months old to middle schoolers, as everything from a date night sitter to full-time nanny. I’m a hands-on, involved babysitter, who will be out in the yard playing with kids instead of sitting back and watching them. I love sports, arts & crafts, educational activities, and can help with homework. I love pets and am open to light chores. I have access to a car and have a clean driving record. I’m open to occasional or regular opportunities in the DMV (metro accessible or up to a 30 min drive). My rate starts at $25/hour and varies by ages and number of children and travel time from my home in NE DC. Please reach out with any questions or to request references!

“Casey was a pleasure to work with! Experienced, professional, and great with our 13-month-old son. Would definitely recommend to anyone with toddlers!”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
