Hi families! I am currently looking for a part-time job starting this August. My availability is: * Tuesday: 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. * Wednesday: 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. * Friday: 4:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. I’m also available for occasional date-night babysitting! Here is my background: I have 4 years of babysitting experience. Alongside that, I also work as a tutor at my college and mentor special needs students. These experiences have helped me become patient, responsible, and dependable. I always make safety my top priority. I also have a younger sister, so I understand the importance of creating a safe, caring, and supportive environment for children. Through my experience, I have driven students to school, camps, and other activities, prepared meals based on their usual preferences, and helped with light housekeeping. I'm also a huge dog person, so I'm very comfortable with pets. I can grantee you that I'm responsible person!! I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable care for your children.

“Thiri was very responsive in communication, accommodating with plan changes and overall an absolute pleasure to work with. My son loved being sat by her and I would absolutely recommend her to others and will not hesitate to use her services again! 10/10 ”

Ella $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in West Mclean, VA

Hi! My name is Ella, I’m 21 years old, and currently a senior in college. I have over five years of hands-on childcare experience, beginning in Sweden, where I regularly babysat for multiple families. My passion for working with kids has only grown since then. I spent a full summer working at a daycare, caring for children ages 0–5, which gave me strong experience with infants, toddlers, and early childhood development. I have also worked as a camp counselor for three years, supervising overnight campers and helping create a fun, safe, and memorable environment. This role taught me how to stay calm under pressure, manage group dynamics, and connect with kids of all personalities. For the past two years, I’ve been part of the Kaizen MMA after-school program, where I help plan camp days, supervise activities, and manage game time for groups of over 90 kids. This has strengthened my skills in organization, creativity, and large-group safety. Outside of my professional experience, I’ve taken care of my younger cousins their whole lives, which sparked my love for childcare in the first place. I’m responsible, patient, energetic, and truly enjoy supporting kids as they learn and grow. I’d love to help your family next!

Ellie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Ellie. I am the middle child of 5 and I am from Vienna, Virginia. I just finished my first year at Franciscan University, majoring in nursing and playing on their soccer team. I love spending time with kids and enjoy being outdoors, especially going on hikes and exploring nature. I have been babysitting for almost 7 years, with experience from 5 months-12 years. I’ve babysat regularly for a family of 5 boys, so I am comfortable managing multiple children. I’m attentive and creative, and I love doing crafts and playing games outside. I also love reading books and I like to bring a long some of my favorites to share:) In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light cleaning, meal prep, laundry and errands. I also have several pets of my own at home, so I am also comfortable with pet care if need be.

Brittany $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in West Mclean, VA

I have worked with children since I was 17 years old! I have worked for a daycare as a lead for the infant room, twos room, threes room, fours and school age as well as assisted in all classrooms. I also was an assistant director for some time at the center as well! I also have obtained my CDA through the school I was working for as well. I love teaching children and now that I am a busy mom with 3 children of my own (5, 8 and 14) I thought it would be a good time to branch out and try being a nanny for a family. I love pets of any shape or size and I know how hard it can be to come home from a long day at work, so I don't mind doing light housekeeping chores!

"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."
