Find a babysitter in Washington, DC

Hi! My name is Sara, and I am a behavior therapist supervisor working with kids with autism full time during the week. I have worked with children with and without special needs for over 15 years now. I have a masters in early childhood special education, and my BCBA, but I have experience babysitting and working with infants-adults. Thanks for your time, and please let me know if you have any other questions!

As a Senior philosophy and English double major at Howard University, I bring a unique blend of intellectual curiosity and communication skills to the table. My experience as a debate coach for middle schoolers at DC Prep showcases my ability to guide and mentor young minds. Additionally, my role in caring for my 4 younger siblings, aged 2 years old to 18 years old, along with four years of dedicated care for my infant cousins, highlights my nurturing nature. This extensive background in childcare, coupled with my college studies, demonstrates a well-rounded skill set for the role of your child Or children baby sitter. My natural patience and emphasis on communication further underscore my suitability, making me an ideal candidate to ensure a safe and enriching environment for children under my care.

Hi, I'm Sonja! I'm an entrepreneur who recently left the tech world to build my own business, which I love, and I'm excited to get back into sitting while I grow it. My schedule is flexible, and I'm usually available evenings and weekends. I'm also CPR certified. I've been caring for kids for most of my life. As the oldest child in my family, I started babysitting my younger siblings at 10, and by 12 I was known around the neighborhood as the most dependable sitter for date nights and errands. I kept babysitting through college, so I have more than 25 years of childcare experience. In college I also interned with the Children's Defense Fund Freedom Schools program, where I taught reading to a class of 12 kids ages 7 to 11. My mother owns a child care consulting company in Orlando, Florida, and she used to run a 24-hour daycare, so I grew up learning a lot from her about caring for children. I'm a former Division I lacrosse player and love being outside, so if you want your kids active, I'm all in for walks, park trips and outdoor play. On quieter nights, babysitting is my excuse to watch more Disney movies (Beauty & the Beast is my favorite!). I'm comfortable with cats and dogs and happy to handle walks or feedings. I have my own car, so driving isn't a problem as long as there's parking near you. Feel free to message me with any questions or to book. I'd love to meet your family! :)

Hi, my name is Aina and I am a third year at George Washington University. I am currently studying abroad in Colombia and will be back in DC mid January. I am normally looking for occasional babysitting opportunities with children ranging from 2-12 years old. When it comes to child care I have been babysitting for two years in the Atlanta and D.C. area. In addition, I have one full year's worth of experience being an after school teacher for kindergartners and first graders at East Valley Elementary school in Marietta, Georgia. At that job, myself along with a co teacher were responsible for upwards of 20 students each day and in a school environment, that was quite manageable, and I know it'd be an even more enjoyable experience if I had more attention to give to fewer children. I also have college experience part time babysitting with multiple families, three of them who I worked with on a consistent basis. I have lots of energy to give when it comes to caring for children and I can find creative ways to keep them engaged and entertained. Working with children is rewarding for me because I remember how much the adults, beyond my parents helped create wonderful memories during my childhood. I hope to provide that same positive impact for others. I used to own a dog for many years and I am comfortable babysitting in pet households so I also have experience with pet care.
