Hi everyone! My name is Britney and I’m a junior political science major at Howard University looking to babysit afterschool or during the weekends. I have over 10 years of experience with childcare and can provide references if needed. My schedule is pretty flexible because all my classes are in the morning and I plenty of free time during the weekend. I love engaging children in arts and crafts, reading stories together, and baking treats, making every moment a chance for learning and laughter. I can also assist with homework. Please message me if you have any questions or interested in having me as a sitter 🧸
My name is Kyra-Marie, and I’m a warm, creative, and responsible caregiver with over 7 years of experience working with children from infants to teens. I currently assist in the DC classrooms, helping elementary school students pre-k through 5th develop important skills through both learning and play. I’m certified in Pediatric First Aid and CPR, and I’m confident in caring for children with special needs, including ADHD, autism, asthma, anxiety, food allergies, OCD, tics, and visual and hearing impairments. I love engaging kids through crafts, drawing, reading, games, and hands-on activities. I also enjoy baking with children when parents are comfortable with it, as it’s a fun way for them to be creative while learning practical skills. I’m happy to help with cooking, light chores, and homework. I’m also comfortable with bedtime routines and enjoy taking children out for walks to the park, museums, libraries, or simply getting some fresh air and exploring. If you’re looking for a dependable, empathetic sitter who treats children with care and respect, I’d love to connect.
Hello! I'm Gabriela! I've taken care of babies, kids and teenagers for more many years, all between the ages of 2 months old to 14 y/o. I have a degree in English Teaching; and back home (Mexico) I was a Spanish and English teacher in a primary school, high school and university for a few years. I consider myself a reliable, responsible, spontaneous, and emphatic person. I'd love to have the opportunity to talk with you to get to know each other better, and see if I have the chance to take care of your beautiful kid(s)! I'm fully vaccinated and always looking for the best way to stay healthy by following the covid prevention recommendations.
“Gabriela was wonderful. My wife was in town for a conference and brought our 12 year old daughter. The two days she was doing conference things, she hired Gabriela to take our daughter to see the sites in DC, and I guess the best review is that one day after my daughter returned home and I was saying goodnight she whispered to me "I already miss Gaby". They saw cool things that we didn't know about, had fun, rambled. Gabriella is a true good spirit, you can't go wrong.”
Hi! I’m Madison, a graduate student at George Washington University and employee at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. I have been doing childcare since middle school, including babysitting for families with over 6 kids, infants, church programs, and more! I would love to help out in any way possible, and I’m super flexible in activities and can transport kids, clean, or just entertain and watch kids! I also have experience pet sitting dogs, cats, chickens, and fish!
Hi there! My name is Nada! I’ve graduated from GMU in May of 2021 with a B.S in Psychology. I’ve worked with an agency called College Nannies Sitters & Tutors for a little over a year and a half & babysat on my own through Urbansitter/Care.com for 4 years. I’ve worked with kids/babies ranging from newborn to 12 years old. I love to do just about anything when I’m caring for a child whether its drawing, running around and playing, reading books, learning, etc. All my life I’ve been athletic, so the running around comes super in handy! I have experience caring for 3 children at a time, but for the most part it’s been 2 children or 1 child that I care for at a time. Due to having so much experience, I know what each age range tends to like to do and how to really work with them, I’d like to say I mastered it! :)

"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."
