Find a babysitter in Washington Navy Yard, DC

Hello, I am Nancy. I am currently student at montgomery college. I’ve always loved being around kids—it’s something that comes naturally to me. With many nephews and nieces, I’ve spent years helping take care of them, and it’s given me so much joy and experience. Whether it’s playing games, telling stories, or just making them laugh, I love creating a space where kids feel happy and cared for. What I enjoy most is how unique every child is. They each have their own personality, and it’s so rewarding to connect with them and see them grow. Taking care of kids has taught me to be patient, creative, and understanding, which are qualities I bring to every family I work with. For me, childcare isn’t just a responsibility—it’s something I’m passionate about and genuinely enjoy doing.

Hi Families! My name is Maeve, and I am a first-year law student in DC. Prior to law school, I worked as an English teacher and have always enjoyed spending time with kids. I’ve taught at the high school level and regularly volunteered with middle and lower school students. I have experience caring for children of various ages. Throughout college, I babysat regularly for a family with a 1-year-old, a 5-year-old, and a dog. I am available Friday through Sunday evenings, with additional flexibility depending on my class schedule. I would love to find a family to assist on a regular basis—whether for weekend date nights, occasional coverage while you work or evening help. I am responsible, dependable, and attentive. In my free time, I enjoy checking out estate sales, testing new recipes and running. I am also able to provide references upon request.

Hello! My name is Ella and I am currently a freshman on the pre-med track at Georgetown University. I am offering childcare and light housekeeping services. I’ve worked as a babysitter on and off for about a year now back home in Los Angeles, but am looking for a more long term part time job. I have the most experience with kids aged 3-11, however, would love the opportunity to work with any age group! I typically play outdoors with kids, read to them, help with homework, or take them to the park. I also love dogs and am comfortable around them. I do not have a car. I can also work as a household assistant as needed with cleaning and tidying up.

Hi! My name is Raya, and I recently moved from Beirut, Lebanon, to Washington, DC, to pursue my undergraduate studies at Georgetown University, where I’m a first-year student. Growing up in a big family, I’ve had extensive experience babysitting children of all ages. I can also prepare healthy meals for your kids since I worked at a “healthy living” restaurant for 2 summers! I am trilingual, speaking English, French, and Arabic fluently, which allows me to communicate with a diverse range of families. I’m also in training to become an EMT, learning to respond to emergency medical situations such as choking, allergic reactions, and more, so safety is always a priority for me. I would love to bring my energy, responsibility, and care to your family!

Hi! I’m an Atlanta native with lots of experience caring for kids and pets. I’ve babysat for teachers, my nephew, and other families, and I recently worked as a teaching fellow for middle school students. I love getting to know kids, helping them learn, and keeping them engaged. I’ve also worked as a summer camp counselor for multiple summers, including travel-based programs, which strengthened my ability to adapt to new environments and manage group dynamics. In addition, I’ve served as a peer mentor for three years, supporting younger students through guidance and encouragement. These experiences have deepened my understanding of children’s needs and how to support them with patience, structure, and attentiveness. I’m patient, observant, and good at matching kids energy, whether they’re super active or a little shy. I also volunteered at a Dementia Care Center, where I used art to connect with older adults, so creativity is a big part of who I am. My cultural awareness is another aspect of my personality. I enjoy arts and crafts, staying active, and practicing my Spanish (I’m an intermediate speaker). I also grew up with a Pomeranian-Papillon mix for over 10 years, so I’m totally comfortable around friendly pets! Finally, I am more than willing run errands, though I don't have a car, do light cleaning, light cooking, and light laundry.
