Booked by 3 families in Chevy Chase, MD

Hello , my name is Bella. I am a responsible college student with hands-on experience caring for young children. I began by caring for a relative’s child years ago during my high school years, and was later recommended to other families in my neighborhood. I also provide childcare at church events, supervising children and leading fun, structured activities. I am patient, reliable, and attentive, and I focus on creating a safe and positive environment. I can also assist with homework and light household tasks.

Bella was fantastic and did a great job with my daughter. Would/Will definitely hire again!

Hi! I’m Laura, a caring and responsible sitter who loves spending time with kids and helping them learn and have fun. I have experience with children of different ages — from babies to preteens — and enjoy reading, arts and crafts, dancing, and outdoor play. I can also help with homework, cooking simple meals, and keeping things organized. I love animals too and I’m happy to help with dogs or cats. I speak both English and Spanish, and families describe me as kind, patient, and reliable.

Julia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Julia and I currently work as a Substitute Teacher and Pet/Housesitter in the DMV. I am looking to expand my client base and serve more families in the area. I am offering pet care, child care, senior care, and household services. I have a masters degree in Childhood Education and have worked as a Substitute Teacher for more than 8 years, in three different states (NYC, WA, MD). I have another masters degree in Recreation Education & Therapy and have worked in therapeutic and commercial recreation for many years, including at summer camps and even for Disney Cruise Line. I have done babysitting ever since I was a teenager, and have experimented with my own business in children’s birthday parties and creativity workshops. I am also so happy to have expanded into pet care in recent years, because I absolutely love dogs and cats. I’ve been a member of Trusted Housesitters for years, and have worked for a pet/home concierge company in the DMV for a year. Housekeeping/homemaking is also my passion. I like to keep a home tidy, and I enjoy doing errands, shopping for groceries, and cooking Italian food (especially pizza). I am also interested in providing companion care with seniors, as I love hearing elders’ stories and wisdom, and providing them with good company. I used to host recreational programs with seniors at assisted living centers, including improv comedy, creative writing and discussion groups. Overall, I love serving families directly, whether it be with their pets, children or seniors, and the home itself. I’m kind of like a substitute family member for hire!
