Hi families, I’m Gabriela, I’m 31 years old. I’m a former Aupair/nanny. Currently I work for a construction company as a project manager. During my Aupair and nanny time I was responsible for the meals, bath, naps and everything related to their routine. I also love to take them to the playground, library, recreation center, museums, etc.
I have over 5 years of experience with caring for children of all ages whether new borns or teens. It started with taking care of family members being a first- born daughter in my big family and expanding to neighbors and friends. With a degree in business management and training in psychology, I bring patience, understanding, and the ability to engage children of all ages in age-appropriate activities. My experience as a certified HCA caregiver, including a year of live-in care, has further developed my ability to ensure safety and wellbeing. I follow parents' guidelines for discipline and respect each family’s preferences. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, keeping tasks within the home. I prioritize clear communication with parents to provide the best care possible for their children. Can’t wait to meet future families 😊
“Hilary was great! She very quickly connect with my toddler and handled the bedtime routine perfectly. She was so kind and professional. We’ll definitely have her back.”
Hello parents! My experience spans from babies to teenagers and I have been working with kids as a nanny and babysitter for 8 years. I have a degree in Business Analytics from the University of Maryland and I’m looking for occasional babysitting jobs. While babysitting, I enjoy playing, reading, going to parks and libraries, exploring kids’ imagination/creativity, and having fun! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
Hi! My name is Claire, and I'm a recent college graduate from Columbia University. I love working with kids, and have been tutoring, babysitting, and volunteering as a camp counselor since I was 14 years old. I've worked with youth of all ages, from kindergarteners to high schoolers, for about ten years. I am currently an English tutor and volunteer mentor to refugee high school students with the International Rescue Committee. I consider myself a friendly person who loves reading bedtime stories and crafting. I'm more than happy to help with homework as well. While I'm not a native speaker, I was a Spanish tutor in high school and would be happy to help little ones with introductory level language practice. I'm also more than happy to help care for any furry friends or elderly loved ones you have at home. I look forward to meeting you! Update: Hi everyone, thank you to all the lovely families with whom I have had the joy of working during my time in DC! I will be moving to New York in June to begin a new job, so I unfortunately will only be able to take on one-time jobs over the next month for families in DC. Thank you!
“Claire was great! Our daughter kept talking about her the next day. ”
Hi, I’m Janelle! I’m looking for occasional babysitting hours on weekday evenings or weekends. I have extensive experience babysitting toddlers and older children as well as experience with children under 1. I spent five years teaching swim lessons to kids from ages 2-8 years old and coaching a summer swim team with kids from 4-18 years old. I love caring for kids!

"UrbanSitter has supported my needs for reliable and joyful sitters. Whether it be for work, recreation or last-minute emergencies, we've made wonderful relationships with local sitters who have become a part of our family!"

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
Laura F., mom of two
