Jasmin 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

I am an energetic and hardworking recent graduate with 10 years of experience of increasing responsibility in childcare. I have recently relocated from the Bronx NYC area, back to the Columbia Heights DC area! I am able to respond efficiently and creatively to unusual or difficult situations and am highly adept at planning and supervising children while constructing a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. Here is a bit of background about me: I grew up in the heart of Washington DC and have worked as a local babysitter for upwards of four years. In addition to having an impressive record of parent and child satisfaction, I am also highly proficient in structuring playtime and lessons to fit the needs of children under my supervision. I can efficiently cook for and feed children, actively engage children in exciting activities ( i.e. park visits, Lego building tournaments, dancing games), and perform light housekeeping if needed. Professionally, I have worked as a middle school math tutor and mentor. I've also worked as a camp counselor at Sidwell Summer and was responsible for creating and supervising daily activities, engaging campers, managing behavior, and maintaining a welcoming an exciting atmosphere.

Jasmin brings a warm, calming presence to our home when she cares for our kids. She’s patient and very kind with the way she speaks and handles herself. My kids are not very close in age but Jasmin seems to always make sure to engage with them at their level. My 11 year old has mentioned she’s creative and fun while my 2 year old smiles and welcomes her when he sees her (which is a big deal for us). Overall it’s been a pleasure to work with Jasmin and we hope to continue to use her services going forward.

Ashyanna $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ashyanna (Ah-shi-ah-na). I'm currently studying to become a Medical Assistant at LAYCCA! I have over 2 years of babysitting experience and an aspiration to someday work as a daycare provider or assistant aswell. I get along well with children, and enjoy it when parents are very specific with their child's care. I can travel to many locations in the DMV, but have limits for distance when it comes to non-occasional/part-time visits. I have a deep love for cats aswell, and housed some of my own in my youth. If you're looking for someone for your furry friend to get accustomed too, I'd love to oblige. Talk to me about your loved one's needs in detail. I pride myself on upholding the best possible care I can.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Bladensburg, MD

Hello! My name is Anna, and I’m a 21 year old pre-med student at Georgetown University. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 and have spent the past five years as a nanny for a wonderful family of five in Princeton, caring for their three children from infancy through early childhood. Over the years, I’ve built strong, long-term relationships with families and truly enjoy supporting children as they grow and learn. In addition to childcare, I have been a certified EMT since age 16 and continue to volunteer both at home and at Georgetown University. Families describe me as dependable, energetic, and compassionate, and I bring both safety and fun to every caregiving role. I am offering child care, dog care, and house sitting. I am looking forward to making those connections here in DC!

Anna was kind and professional, super easy to communicate with babysitter. She was attentive and engaging and we loved our time with her. We will absolutely book again!
