Niloufar $30 per hour for 1 child

I genuinely love spending time with children and have years of experience caring for kids both back home and here in the U.S. Since moving here, I’ve helped care for my niece and often take him and his friends to the playground on weekends when I’m free. I currently work as a dental assistant and am looking for part-time babysitting or nany opportunities in the evenings or on weekends. I’m patient, playful, and always make sure kids feel safe and happy.

Hi there! Nice to meet you! My name’s Lauren and I’m looking forward to working with your family. Here’s a bit about myself: I have years of experience working with children ages 1-10 as a babysitter, nanny, and I also previously worked as 4th and 5th grade elementary school teacher in Fairfax County. As I care for your child, I’ll make sure they are happy, engaged, and safe! Currently and more recently, I am working with children 1-4 years old. Currently, I am taking a break from teaching and do private tutoring as well as babysitting. Please feel free to let me know any routines you follow, any likes/dislikes that your child may have, or anything you'd like to share with me. During care of your child, I'll respond to your calls/texts right away. I'm open to do a video call to introduce myself if you prefer that as well. Hope to hear from you! :) -Lauren

“Very professional. On time. Good communication. Seamlessly integrated herself and made the transition easy for us to leave. Our little one had a great time with Hyun. Def recommend!”

Hi, I'm Gissell 26yrs old About me: I've been working with kids since 2017 and have over 9 years of experience. In 2023, I worked as a teacher assistant in a preschool, where I learned even more about helping children grow and gained experience working with more than one kid at the same time. I've cared for babies, played with toddlers, and supported older kids too. Skills and Qualifications: I'm certified in CPR and First Aid. I truly care about each child and always try to meet their individual needs. As a nanny, my goal is to give children a warm and caring environment where they can feel happy and confident.

Keloutie $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Savi. I've been a professional nanny for over 20 years, and it's truly been a joy to watch the families I've worked with grow and thrive. I typically join families when their little ones are newborns and stay with them through those precious early years-until they head off to school full time. Saying goodbye is always bittersweet, but I feel lucky to have been part of those foundational years. I'm caring, nurturing, and trustworthy, with a reputation for being exceptionally punctual (and I have excellent references to back that up!). I'm currently looking for a full-time position (around 45-50 hours per week) with a family who will welcome me as a valued part of their lives. If you're looking for a dependable, experienced nanny to support your family's daily routine, I'd love to connect. I'm happy to share my resume and answer any questions you may have. Thank you so much!

"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."
