Booked by 6 families in Newington, VA

Hi! My name is Danah, I'm a recent graduate who is taking a gap year before moving for graduate school in the fall. I'm looking for a summer job and turned to baby-sitting because I love spending time with children. I have previous experience with child-care, including helping out at a local middle school. I have taken care of ages 1.5, 2.5, 5, 8, and 12. I am available weekdays and weekends. I have my own car and have held a license for five years, meaning I'm flexible with locations. I am a big kid myself so taking care of your little one(s) would be a joy for me. Whether it be reading with them, helping out with homework, or playing, I am all in! I would love to take care of your family this summer :) Please let me know if you would like any references or a copy of my resume. I am also fully vaccinated, so no worries there.

Hi! My name is Emily and I have over 17 years of babysitting experience with all ages (infant to 10+ y/o). I started babysitting when I was 13 (am originally from the DMV) and have done everything from date nights to summer nannying to event sitting (weddings, etc.). I'm calm, patient, flexible and love working with kids! I'm looking for occasional date night, weeknight or weekend sitting opportunities. I would love to meet you and your little one(s) and am more than happy to do a call or in-person meet and greet to ensure it's a good fit.

Booked by 1 family in Newington, VA

Hello! I'm an author and narrative strategist looking to supplement my freelance income while I edit my first book. I worked as a camp counselor (Potomac School, Ligonier Camp) before heading off to NYC for my former life as an editor (Martha Stewart, NBCUniversal); now in my mid-30s, I'm excited to revive my skills as a part-time babysitter. If you're looking for curiosity, calm authority, and an artistic presence who's always down for creative play, I'm your gal. I also do a killer read-aloud bedtime story.

"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."
