Find a babysitter in Washington, DC

Hi there! I’m Kim — a full-time certified Life Coach with a heart for nurturing kids and caring for pets. Before stepping into the world of coaching, I worked as a Teacher’s Aide in a youth corrections facility, where I learned firsthand how vital a safe, loving, and playful environment is for a child’s development. That experience, along with many joyful summers as a camp counselor and director during college, confirmed that I’m a big softy at heart who thrives when supporting young people with patience, compassion, and fun. I bring that same care and intentionality into every babysitting job — whether it’s a quiet night in with bedtime stories or an afternoon filled with imaginative games and outdoor play. And let’s not forget the pets! As a proud dog mom, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family members. I offer walks, feeding, snuggles, playtime, and can even work from your home to spend more time with your pets throughout the day. Availability: 🗓️ Weekdays: 5 PM – 1 AM 🗓️ Weekends: Available all day If you’re looking for a reliable, warmhearted sitter who brings both experience and care to your family, I’d love to connect!

Hi - My preferred name is Sam. I have been caring for children since I was 8, when my beautiful nieces and nephews were born. Growing up, I'd help my sister care for her little ones, and naturally, I loved being around them. As I got older, I started occasionally caring for kids in my neighborhood. I became a full-time nanny during the pandemic for a 5-year-old boy. And I am currently a part-time nanny for a 2-month-old baby girl. I am CPR certified. I love animals! I dog-sit when folks are out of town. I'm always happy to help meal prep and help with things around the house. And if you'd like someone to teach your little one Spanish, I'm your girl! I have a calm and warm spirit. And I love tapping into my inner child when it comes to playing with the kids. My major hobbies include songwriting, drawing, and photography. I also love to play guitar, read, and spend time with my pup on my free time. I am currently interested in families looking for a part-time, occasional, date night, or overnight sitter.

I am an energetic and hardworking recent graduate with 10 years of experience of increasing responsibility in childcare. I have recently relocated from the Bronx NYC area, back to the Columbia Heights DC area! I am able to respond efficiently and creatively to unusual or difficult situations and am highly adept at planning and supervising children while constructing a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. Here is a bit of background about me: I grew up in the heart of Washington DC and have worked as a local babysitter for upwards of four years. In addition to having an impressive record of parent and child satisfaction, I am also highly proficient in structuring playtime and lessons to fit the needs of children under my supervision. I can efficiently cook for and feed children, actively engage children in exciting activities ( i.e. park visits, Lego building tournaments, dancing games), and perform light housekeeping if needed. Professionally, I have worked as a middle school math tutor and mentor. I've also worked as a camp counselor at Sidwell Summer and was responsible for creating and supervising daily activities, engaging campers, managing behavior, and maintaining a welcoming an exciting atmosphere.
