Booked by 67 families in Somerville, VA

Good Evening everyone my name is Aliya and I am currently a senior at George Mason. I am providing childcare, pet care, as well as household services. I am great with kids, I have previous experience helping my mom when I was in elementary school with her daycare. CURRENTLY, I am happy to say that I am aunt of 11 beautiful nieces and nephews so they keep me busy. My responsibilities with kids include driving to and from school, tutoring, and helping with any of their extra activities to the best of my ability. I can also cook and clean. A few years back my grandmother did live with me so I am familiar and comfortable with senior care.

“Aliya was great! Punctual, professional, patient and great with our 2-month old!”

Hi! My name is Mila. I'm a proud mom of two kids— my oldest just graduated, and my youngest is in college. I’ve spent most of my life taking care of kids. First my own, and also my nieces and nephews. Now that my kids are growing up I’m excited to help other families and get back to doing something I truly enjoy, taking care of little ones. I know how busy life gets as a parent, so I’m happy to help however I can. From childcare to housekeeping, errands, school drop-offs and pickups, and cooking. I love being in the kitchen and making healthy, home-cooked meals! I speak both Spanish and English. I currently work in food and retail, but I’m looking to make a move into full-time babysitting work. I’m reliable, caring, and bring years of real-life experience. Thank you!

“I’ve worked part time with Mila and she has an amazing work ethic!! She’s always early, thinks ahead, and is adaptable in shift. You can see how much she cares about kids when we help a nearby daycamp. She talks to kids with so much care and respect (which is why we always send her out as our speaker lol). She’d be an awesome babysitter!”

Nichole $18 per hour for 1 child

I’m a WFH insurance agent. I’m a 38 y.o. Christian, single female with no kids. However I have been babysitting on and off since I was 12. I have many friends with children, and it is my pleasure to be able to help them from time to time, as some are single mothers, since I’m in the position to help. I’m typically known as the adopted Auntie, as I’m very protective and it’s important the children feel safe in their own home. Especially under my care, as I take safety very seriously. While I am fun and like to laugh, I don’t allow that to take away from what’s important, such as their homework or any obligations they may have. I have reliable transportation, I cook, I clean, I change diapers, and I enjoy quality time with the children instead of only placing them in front of a television. Their responsibilities I will honor, as well as the parents requests. Feel free to reach out for references or if you would like to meet on zoom or for coffee. I do have a business meeting one Saturday a month. I typically get a 1-2 week notice as the day fluctuates. On these days, I am available from the am to around 1pm as I have to travel. Also I currently don’t have a vehicle as my transmission went but can get to and from your house if local.

"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."
