Nice to meet you! After receiving my Bachelor's in Psychology with a specialization in Child Development, I moved back to the DC area to be closer to family. Between my undergrad work programs and my current job, I've been working in a teaching capacity with children for about 6 years now. Currently, I'm employed full time as a associate teacher at a DC preschool. This experience provides me with lots of benefits that I then get to share with my babysitting families! Some of these benefits include child CPR certification, easy meal times (I've supported all sorts of kids with different dietary and motor needs), comfort with managing siblings, and a willingness to embrace the toughest bedtime routines. I look forward to working with your family!
Hi there! My name is Margo. I come from a large family and have been surrounded by children my entire life. I was raised helping care for my younger sibling and cousins, and I am now a very involved aunt to 14 nieces and nephews whom I am extremely close to. Caring for children has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. I have experience babysitting infants through 10-year-olds, including children with special needs, who I have a particular heart for. I am warm, fun, personable, and highly adaptable. I do well with different family dynamics and parenting styles, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love cooking, baking, and am able to drive kids around, house or pet sit. I take my role as a caretaker seriously and truly enjoy building meaningful, trusting relationships with both children and parents.
I graduated May 2023 with a B. S. in music studies and psychology with a concentration in children and families with the goal of becoming a music therapist and working with children and adolescents. I have a 7-year-old sister who is my absolute favorite person, I spent a lot of time caring for her at the beginning of COVID especially. I am very active and I love working with children and animals. I enjoy spending time outside and doing arts and crafts. I worked in a Mental Health Residential facility for one year caring for teenagers between the ages of 11-17. During this time I became First Aid/CPR certified, MAT certified, and trained in food safety. I briefly worked with children diagnosed with autism as a behavioral technician in 2024. I am currently working as a full time nanny for an 8 year old girl. I am very passionate about working with children and adolescents who have a variety of needs. I am also comfortable with pets, I grew up around dogs for most of my life and even pet sit sometimes now. I love cats and currently have two of my own.
Hello my name is winy and I’m from Colombia. I’m a English and Spanish teacher recently graduated and I’m currently living in Alexandria offering child care, pet care and household services. I have previous experience as baby sitter, since I was 15 years old I’ve been watching infants, toddlers and even teenager’s. I’d love children and enjoy having time for games, make different activities and having fun. I’m patient, responsable and creative person. In addition I have work before as a teacher back in my country with groups of different ages in classroom and outside environments. So helping with Spanish lessons will be also include as part of my service. I’m pet lover so I can definitely work with family’s with dogs or cats. I can drive, cook or do other tasks.
I'm a dedicated cat-sitter with experience following diligent instructions, taking care of pets with various needs (medical, social, etc) and showering them with love when their families need someone to look after them!

"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."
