Carmen $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Carmen! I’m 22 years old. I was born in Peru and moved to Northern Virginia in 2013. When my mom and I first moved here, we were waiting for our paperwork to be processed and weren’t able to work, so we started babysitting children from our home for families we knew and family friends. Over the years, we cared for children ranging from as young as 3 months old to about 4 years old. We built such wonderful relationships with the children and their families, and we still keep in touch with many of them and even attend their family gatherings. It has been really special to watch the children grow and to remain close with their families throughout the years. Currently, I work as a server at a restaurant, and I really enjoy staying busy, being helpful, and interacting with people. Although I haven’t had professional experience caring for seniors yet, I do have several years of experience caring for young children, which has taught me to be patient, responsible, attentive, and caring. I also have a 5-year-old Shih Tzu who was actually gifted to us by one of those family friends, so she has become a very special part of our family as well! 🐶❤️ I also want to mention that I live a healthy and responsible lifestyle. I do not use drugs or any other substances, and I take my responsibilities and the trust people place in me very seriously. I’m very new to this app, so please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I’d be happy to tell you more about myself and my experience!

Afua $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello!! My name is Afua! and I’ve been working with children for over five years. I absolutely love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and caring environment. I currently work as a hospital technician, so I’m medically trained and confident handling any health or safety concerns that may come up. I have experience caring for children with autism as well as older adults with dementia and other cognitive challenges, so I’m patient, understanding, and attentive to individual needs. At my church, I serve as a toddler coordinator, where I plan and lead activities that keep little ones engaged and excited to learn, which means I’m great at organizing fun, creative ways to spend time with kids of all ages. I’m also very active and love staying on the move, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or keeping up with energetic toddlers. My goal is to make sure your children feel happy, supported, and safe while having a great time. Your kids will be in caring and capable hands with me, and I’m always happy to answer any questions you have!

"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."
