Aurelia $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! my name is Aurelia, I'm currently a student at Cambridge University and have lived abroad in both England and Germany for the past three years, but I was raised in Bethesda, Maryland, where I also completed high school—so I'm very familiar with the area! I have my own transportation, a clean record, and a strong background working with children. I spent 3 years coaching kids with autism on my weekends through the ACEing Autism tennis program and served as an assistant teacher, tutoring children with learning disabilities during my junior and senior years of high school. I've babysat on and off throughout my life, caring for children ages 3 to 10. I'm reliable, experienced, and passionate about creating a safe, fun environment for kids!

Paige $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Paige. As the youngest of five, I grew up surrounded by older siblings who shaped me into someone patient, adaptable, and easy to connect with. Being part of a big family made me naturally comfortable around children and helped me understand different personalities and family dynamics. I’ve also played a big role in raising my nephew since he was a baby (he’s 5 now). We have a very close bond, and caring for him taught me how to keep kids engaged, supported, and on a healthy routine. I’m thoughtful, communicative, and always make sure children feel safe, heard, and comfortable. Parents can expect consistent updates and clear communication from me. I can prepare meals, keep things organized, help with bedtime routines, and assist with homework. I’m also a mentor at my job, so guiding and supporting others especially kids comes naturally to me. I’m great with pets as well; I’ve had four dogs and I’m very comfortable around animals. I’m available evenings and weekends, and I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and someone families can trust.

Karen $25 per hour for 1 child

Hiiiii!! This is Karen, former au pair and currently nanny with over 10 years of experience, 7+ in Argentina and more than 3 in the U. S. And CPR trained. I've cared for kids of all ages, from babies to teenagers, and I love supporting their growth through fun activities, routines, and patience. As a reference, I've been taking care of my youngest host kid since he was 7 months old and he's 4 years old now! :) I'm also a college student nowadays, and I'm looking for an extra job this time since I'll be available from 9am to 3pm approximately on weekdays. I'm responsible, empathetic, and always give my full heart when caring for children. I also enjoy cooking simple meals, helping around the house, and creating a safe, happy space. Feel free to reach out to me anytime if you think it could work! I would be more than happy to help! Thank you!!

Katherine $20 per hour for 1 child

I've been babysitting for 8 years and have worked in education related childcare for the past 3 years, including with children diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and/or autism. I'm CPR and basic first aid certified for infants, children, and adults. Currently, I'm in my 2nd year at American University. I work with Teach For America tutoring 4th and 5th grade math (I'm always happy to help with homework, math or otherwise) and have worked in before school care since high school. In addition, I teach swim lessons at a local swim school and have been instructing for 2 years. I'm happy to work with kids of any age! I pride myself on empathetic problem solving and flexibility. I would describe myself as patient, energetic, and child-centered. I'm excited to meet your family and lend a hand!
