Find a babysitter in Mount Rainier, MD

Hi Parents, I'm a recent James Madison University graduate and moved to the Mount Pleasant area a few months ago. I currently work from home and am looking to take on some more part-time babysitting work. I'm available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 5 PM, and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I babysit two kids who attend Rosemont and Bancroft, so I'm already familiar with the area's local schools and daycare centers! I have previous babysitting experience, a valid driver's license, and a clean driving record. I'm open to both one-time and recurring opportunities. Feel free to message me if you're looking for some extra help — I'd love to connect!

Hello! I'm delighted to share more about my background and why I am dedicated to providing excellent care for your family. My experience spans various age groups and needs, built on a foundation of professional involvement and personal responsibility. • Toddler Care: I am actively involved in my church’s family ministry, where I regularly watch and engage with toddlers during service. This hands-on, group setting has sharpened my skills in managing routines, addressing immediate needs, and facilitating positive, safe play. • Individual Babysitting: I have also built experience by caring for the children of my friends, which has given me insight into respecting individual family routines and providing customized care in a home environment. I'm comfortable with various age ranges, from infants to school-aged children. • Pets: I am a loving pet owner myself and am comfortable caring for dogs (walking, feeding) ensuring their needs and routines are met.

Hello! I recently graduated from Emory University. I currently work full time, but I would love to get back into babysitting on the weekends! I’ve been babysitting since I was 13, and I’ve looked after kids of all ages, from infants as young as 6 weeks to busy toddlers and energetic preschoolers. I’ve cared for up to three children at a time and gained valuable hands-on experience while working at a daycare while at university, where I supported children from 8 weeks to 4 years old. I’m patient, kind, and creative, and I love coming up with fun activities that help kids learn, explore, and feel safe. Whether I’m soothing a newborn, helping with routines, or engaging little ones in play and learning, I always strive to create a calm, positive environment. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, nurturing care for your children!

Hi there, I’m Celia. I’m a doctorate student at GWU studying occupational therapy and hoping to one day do pediatric OT. I’m offering child care, senior care, and pet care services at this time. I have been babysitting since I turned 13, have experience in pediatric oncology, and recently was a lead preschool teacher for children ranging from 2-5 years old (within one classroom). I have worked with non verbal children, am CPR certified through the American Heart Association, and love getting creative with kids. I would oftentimes cover the infant room during early and extended care while working at the preschool. I also have around 80 hours of observations with senior care and experience working with the elderly population. I also love dogs and cats, but am allergic to cats and therefore am only accepting dog sitting gigs at this time. I have experience dog sitting 1 dog at a time anywhere from hours to 2 weeks, but would love to gain experience working with more than 1 dog.

Hi there! My name is Sophie, and I recently moved to D.C. from Louisiana after graduating from law school at LSU. I have been babysitting since high school and love working with children of all ages. You can count on me to be dependable, patient, and caring. In addition to childcare, I’m also available to help with errands, pet sitting (I’m not allergic to any animals), and elderly care. I cared for my grandmother for three years before she passed away from dementia, so I’m experienced, compassionate, and attentive to the needs of seniors. While I don’t currently have a car, I’m more than happy to walk or use public transportation to get wherever you need. I’d love the opportunity to help your family—whether that’s watching your kids, caring for your pets, or lending a hand with day-to-day tasks. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat!
