Brittany $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Dunn Loring, VA

I have worked with children since I was 17 years old! I have worked for a daycare as a lead for the infant room, twos room, threes room, fours and school age as well as assisted in all classrooms. I also was an assistant director for some time at the center as well! I also have obtained my CDA through the school I was working for as well. I love teaching children and now that I am a busy mom with 3 children of my own (5, 8 and 14) I thought it would be a good time to branch out and try being a nanny for a family. I love pets of any shape or size and I know how hard it can be to come home from a long day at work, so I don't mind doing light housekeeping chores!

maritza $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Brenda! I’m a student looking forward to working in the healthcare industry while doing as many side jobs as possible in the meantime. I've been passionate about being around kids of any age, even months old, ever since I was in high school. babysitting an nannying after school, weekends an during the summer were my top favorite hobbies. I enjoyed doing it even til this day; that is a true passion of mine. Aside from forwarding to the healthcare industry, my goal is being a infante nurse, still growing my passion for kids but as a nurse, and very proud of where I've become!

Ashton $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Ashton! I’m a career nanny/family assistant who believes every day with kids should have a mix of structure, laughter, and a little bit of adventure. With over ten years of experience, I’ve worked with families through just about every stage — from baby snuggles and nap schedules to homework help and after-school chaos — and I genuinely love it all. Over the years, I’ve worked with families long-term, managing everything from daily routines and after-school schedules to travel, household coordination, and family logistics. Whether it’s planning enriching activities, helping with school projects, or keeping things organized behind the scenes, I bring a thoughtful, steady presence to every home I’m part of. I’m originally from Alabama but now call the D.C. area home. When I’m not with my nanny families, I’m usually traveling (I’ve checked all 50 states off my list!), at a concert, or hanging out with my fiancé and our Goldendoodle, Rui.

"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."
