Hello, I’m Cat! I provide animal care, child care, elderly care, personal assistant and shopper. I take passion in enhancing the wellbeing of others. I have a bachelors in Anthropology and have worked as an educator in schools, camps, gardens and kitchens for many years.
Hi! My name is Megan and I’m 28 years old. I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2019. I live in Manassas, VA. I’ve enjoyed babysitting kids of all ages since I was 13. I work full time during the week, and I’m looking to make some extra spending money on weekends and weeknights. In my free time, I like to run, cook and read. I have my own car and I’m willing to travel into DC and to nearby suburbs in MD and VA. I look forward to meeting you!
“Megan was great with 4 children (6,4,3 & 2) to allow another couple and my husband & I to go out the evening/night of Valentine’s Day. We had a wonderful time and Megan made that possible. She was responsive, kind and funny and my daughter who was crying moments before we left (about us leaving) seemed to forget her sadness within 5 minutes of Megan showing up. She even got all 4 toddlers down successfully and they were sound asleep when we got home, miraculous! We’d love to have her watch our children again.”
Hello There, I trust you and your family are well! You might notice my last review is from 2020, that’s simply because I’ve been fortunate to work long-term with a few wonderful families since then. My relationships often last for years, and many of the families I’ve supported have truly become like family to me. I hold a Master’s of Arts (M.A.) in School Counseling, & M.Ed in Education Policy and Leadership. I have more than fourteen years of private childcare experience ranging from newborn to 15 years of age. I support children's emotional and social development, encouraging understanding of others and positive self-concepts. My goal has always been to provide children with the necessary care. I am dedicated to creating an atmosphere that is fun,stimulating, encouraging, safe and adaptive to each child's individual needs. Should you have any questions, feel free to message me.
“A miracle worker. Absolutely amazing. Wish she lived in SF.”

"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
