Hi Parents! I am an experienced caregiver with over 10 years of childcare experience working with children from ages 0–8. I am available full time and truly enjoy helping children grow, learn, and feel safe in a loving environment. I love spending time with kids doing fun and healthy activities such as going for walks, visiting the playground, going to the library, and doing arts and crafts. I believe in creating a positive, nurturing space where children can explore, play, and develop new skills. I am known for being very kind, patient, loving, and caring with the children I work with. As a proud grandmother of three, I understand how important it is for families to have someone they trust to care for their children. I speak Spanish, which allows me to communicate and introduce children to the language. I am also pet-friendly and comfortable in homes with animals. I am currently looking for a full-time caregiving position, but I am also available for date nights and weekend childcare when needed. I look forward to supporting families and providing dependable, loving care for their children.

“affectionate and reliable!”

Hi everybody! My name is Klaudia and besides being a part-time babysitter I'm open to families which are considering to have a live-in or live-out nanny. I have wide experience with kids in different ages. As a certified Red Cross first-aid trainer I was able to teach kids about the health, first-air and CPR. I am very patient and I love to see the progress that kids can make. Besides my long experience with kids, including kids with disabilities, as an ordinary nanny for total of 6 years, I was a live-in nanny for almost two years. This experience consisted from taking care of three kids (ages 5, 9 and 12), driving them to activities, making a food for them, helping them with homework and of course having fun! What I liked about this experience was the opportunity to maintain great relationship with these kids and the ability to be there for them anytime they needed me. Additionally, I do have experience with toddlers and infants, bedtime and morning routines, feeding and playing with babies or taking them for stroller walks. I'm also enjoying tutoring English and Math. Please don't hesitate to send me a message.

Additionally can do household errands and can cook, clean, and run errands.

Hi! My name is Brianna, I am 24 years old and I am a professional nanny based in the Alexandria, VA area reaching Arlington, VA and DC. I am a screen-free, play-based nanny as I prioritize interactive and imaginative play as well as age appropriate developmental/instructional time. I strive to create a safe, nurturing and fun environment with kindness, creativity and a passion to learn. About my experience— I have been a professional nanny since August 2023. Over the last three years I have worked with children aged newborn-12 years old. Truly, it is hard to say what I haven’t done in my three years of experience! From creating and maintaining infant routines to potty training toddlers and assisting with elementary school drop off, I have had the opportunity to learn so much in the last three years. I value working closely with parents to ensure the best, proper care for their child(ren). A bit about me personally— I grew up in the Alexandria, VA area with my parents and two brothers. I have always had a love for books, writing and music. I love to bake and I spend endless hours crafting all sorts of things! Reach out with any questions, I’m looking forward to connecting soon!

"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."
