Hi, I'm Sonja! I'm an entrepreneur who recently left the tech world to build my own business, which I love, and I'm excited to get back into sitting while I grow it. My schedule is flexible, and I'm usually available evenings and weekends. I'm also CPR certified. I've been caring for kids for most of my life. As the oldest child in my family, I started babysitting my younger siblings at 10, and by 12 I was known around the neighborhood as the most dependable sitter for date nights and errands. I kept babysitting through college, so I have more than 25 years of childcare experience. In college I also interned with the Children's Defense Fund Freedom Schools program, where I taught reading to a class of 12 kids ages 7 to 11. My mother owns a child care consulting company in Orlando, Florida, and she used to run a 24-hour daycare, so I grew up learning a lot from her about caring for children. I'm a former Division I lacrosse player and love being outside, so if you want your kids active, I'm all in for walks, park trips and outdoor play. On quieter nights, babysitting is my excuse to watch more Disney movies (Beauty & the Beast is my favorite!). I'm comfortable with cats and dogs and happy to handle walks or feedings. I have my own car, so driving isn't a problem as long as there's parking near you. Feel free to message me with any questions or to book. I'd love to meet your family! :)
“Sonja was great with our son. She showed up on time, and communicated with us well during the booking process and the job. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again or recommend her to someone else.”

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.
“We loved her! She immediately engaged the kids, brought some activities for them, and emits warmth, caring, and fun. We will definitely have her again!”
