About Intisar Hi! My name is Intisar. I have over 20 years of experience working with children, including 15 years in preschool and 9 years as a nanny. I love working with children and helping them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and children up to 6 years old. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and helping children learn and grow. I am also comfortable with school drop-off and pick-up, driving children to activities, preparing meals and bottles, children’s laundry, organizing their rooms, and helping with light child-related household tasks. I have experience working with families for both short-term and long-term care, and I value building a trusting relationship with parents and children. I am reliable, caring, patient, and looking for a long-term position with the right family. I also have experience with senior care and household assistance. I can help with meals, errands, appointments, and everyday activities. I have my own reliable car and a clean driving record. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and help care for your children. ❤️
“Intisar was The.Best.Nanny. for my 2 kids for over 2 years (age 1-3 and 4-6). She is loving, diligent, and trustworthy. She has the experience of being preschool teacher so actual professional knowledge of caregiving mixed with such warmth reflecting her own time as a mother of 4 kids who are now grown. I felt so guilty as a working mother, but having Intisar take care of my kids like they were family (and I had just found her online like you are!) was such a relief. She played, she fed them, she took them on outings; she was respectful about my specific rules (even in hindsight I think they were too much as I was a nervous young mother ha), she was punctual. Any child and parent would be lucky to have her!”
Hi! My name is Lina, and I’ve been working on UrbanSitter for a few years now. I am an auntie of eight incredible nieces and nephews whom I have helped take care of from birth into their childhood. I’m conversant in Amharic, French, and I am somewhat conversant in Arabic and Spanish. I am energetic, creative, and read wonderful bedtime stories! I can help with all kinds of homework, and can engage in various activities. If there are any particular subjects/activities or developmental milestones you would like me to help with, please let me know! I pay attention to detail & can maintain an organized space during and after activites. I take constructive criticism very seriously and try my best to implement changes immediately. I love working with children, from birth to big kids! Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions! At this time I am only available on an occasional basis. Thank you! -Lina
Hello! I'm a warm-hearted, imaginative, and patient professional with over a decade of experience in childcare. I've had the pleasure of working as both a babysitter and a teacher, caring for children from infancy through their teenage years. My passion lies in nurturing young minds, helping them grow strong and thrive in a loving environment. With a deep commitment to fostering positive development, I take pride in guiding children to become their best selves. Each moment I spend with them is driven by a desire to make a meaningful impact, ensuring they feel supported and encouraged. Alongside my extensive childcare experience, I am also happy to take on additional tasks as needed to accommodate your family's needs. Rest assured, with my skills and dedication, your children will enjoy a safe, supervised, and nurturing atmosphere, where they can flourish and feel cherished.
“Julieth was super responsive and sweet. She has a lot of great experience working with children. We were really impressed by her professionalism and her sweetness with our son.”
A little bit about me… Families often tell me I bring a calm, and engaging presence—especially with babies, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. I love nurturing curiosity through play, encouraging independence, and creating predictable routines that help children feel safe, confident, and deeply cared for. I have several years of experience with infants as well as elementary aged children. Over the past year, I've had the privilege of serving as a full-time live-out nanny for a wonderful family with two energetic, curious children (currently ages 3 and 5). With my experience homeschooling and parenting my own high energy children, this role strengthened my abilities even more. My responsibilities include daily transportation in the family's vehicle to and from school, camps, appointments, play dates, and extracurricular activities, while maintaining a safe, organized, and dependable routine. I am neurodiversity-affirming and have additional training supporting children with learning differences, including dyslexia, and dysgraphia. My focus is always connection-based care. I would love to learn how I can support you and your families needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and background checked with clean driving record.
“Wendy punctual, communicative and was amazing with my three young kids — they all had a great time having her as their sitter. Will definitely want to work with her again!”
Hi! I'm a licensed elementary special education teacher with Fairfax County Public Schools available for summer weekdays. I offer babysitting services and/or individualized reading and writing tutoring for children ages 5-12. I have a reliable vehicle and can transport children to and from summer camps, activities, and appointments. Whether you need full-day care, transportation, or academic support to prevent summer learning regression, I'd love to help your family have a successful summer. I'm great with pets, too!
“Calli was great! She was communicative, punctual and a total pro! My daughter loved her and I felt like she was in good hands. Would definitely book again!”

"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."
Michelle R., mom of two
"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."
Milena L., mom of two
"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."
Heather B., mom of two
