Hi! My name is Charlotte. I am a graduate student at Trinity Washington University. I have a strong background in caregiving and support services. I offer a variety of services including child care, pet care, and household help. I’ve worked in both healthcare and family-focused environments, including hospitals, babysitting, summer camps for children with disabilities, and therapy-based programs. I'm currently pursuing a career in occupational therapy, so I'm passionate about creating supportive, engaging environments for people of all ages. I’ve cared for children of all age, from toddlers to middle schoolers. I’ve babysat a 5-year-old nonverbal child with autism, volunteered at pediatric therapy centers, and mentored elementary students through a college program. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and CPR/BLS Certified. Additionally, I've helped manage food pantries, assisted with household tasks in caregiving roles, and frequently help family/friends with organizing, meal prep, and errands.
Hi there! I'm Madison and live in Northwest DC. I went to the University of Richmond and have spent the last 5 years working in the nonprofit space. I'm currently career pivoting to apply to school for occupational therapy, and I have a flexible schedule. I have experience babysitting, working as a companion for senior citizens, and years working as a camp counselor. I'm bilingual, energetic, and also happy to provide tutoring or homework help. I also love animals, happy to dog walk / dog sit as well and am comfortable with cats (have one at home😊)
Hi! I’m Ava. I am in my early full time career following graduating college in 2024. Growing up as the oldest kid on my street by about 10 years & my mom being a full time nanny, I have plenty of experience working with children of all ages and behaviors. I have long been the go-to for my community in Northern Virginia, and I’m excited to spend my free time doing the same in the DC area. Aside from babysitting, I’ve spent 4 summers as a full time nanny to two different families with children ranging from 3 to 11. Before I kicked off my full time marketing career, I worked in marketing for a summer camp in DC, where I quickly became many parent’s point of contact and go-to when children needed additional support. I make a conscious effort to lead my childcare approach with empathy & patience and it is something I have so much fun doing. Looking forward to supporting parents in the DC community!
Hi! I'm Kathleen and have had sitting gigs/volunteer gigs with kids on and off since high school. I have eight nieces and nephews, so I am super comfortable with kids & there's not much I haven't seen!
Hello! I am friendly, creative, and have experience working with infants to school-age children. Additionally, I can also provide care for seniors, pets, and plants. I have a BS in biology and psychology and a Master of Public Health focusing in education. I am more than happy to provide tutoring services while caring for your little ones. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit to work with your 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
