Every summer in high school I was a camp counselor for roughly six weeks, working with ages 4-10. I also frequently babysat during high school, usually ages 7-10. I am currently on my fourth season as a Girls on the Run coach for ages 8-10. I really enjoy spending time kids. I have always had a dog and typically take care of my dog when my parents are away. I am a responsible person and understand the effort required to take care of people (fur people include) and genuinely enjoy doing that!
I’m a caring, dependable caregiver who brings a little fun into every day! I’ve worked with kids, seniors, and pets, helping with everything from homework and bedtime routines to companionship and daily support. I love creating a safe, positive environment where everyone feels comfortable, valued, and even gets to smile a little more. Whether it’s keeping kids engaged, making sure seniors feel respected and cared for, or giving pets the attention they deserve, I’m all in. I also help keep the home running smoothly with light cleaning, organizing, and meal prep. With patience, empathy, and great time management, I make sure everything gets done while keeping the vibe warm and upbeat.
Hello! If you are seeking a seasoned, kind, compassionate and highly intuitive caregiver, you have come to the right profile! My background in professional theater, education and special education have honed my innate talents in connecting with and providing positive and enriching experiences for the children and young adults with whom I have worked. My charges have included many children who are neurodiverse including those with Autism. I'm fit, active and energetic with "fun Auntie" or "cool (young) G-ma" vibes. But I'm also a more type B, caregiver who would be perfect for a child that needs a bit more of a nurturing presence rather than just a playmate. I also adore Dogs and am available to care for SMALL dogs.
Hi! My name is Sophia and I am a consultant living and working in Northern Virginia. I have experience babysitting children through my college town in Vermont and while growing up in Central Florida. I speak English and Korean fluently, can cook and clean efficiently, and I am very detail-oriented. I also do CrossFit, run, and played collegiate golf. I am committed to providing attentive care that meets the needs of your loved ones! I am very comfortable with dogs and cats, and would happily babysit in households with pets and children or outright watch either. I am also CPR certified!
I’m an experienced, energetic and responsible young adult woman. I love kids and have experience both in house babysitting 2 young girls over 5 years, as well as working in a performance training facility with the youth group of ages 3-15 years old. I have loved teaching young girls and boys to move their bodies safely & efficiently and know how to keep them busy. I’ve worked with both disabled, hyperactive, and the overly shy kids. I believe my experience leading large groups (10+ kids) of youth can make me a unique babysitter. Currently, I am a full time personal trainer based in DC and a holistic nutrition & health coach for my own wellness brand.. and I just miss working with kids!! Looking for a part time/ occasional gig to fill in my free time and flexible schedule (I’m also new to the area, so happy to see different neighborhoods and meet nice families!)

"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
