My name is Lucy and I work part-time for the education department of a local theater! I'm passionate about children's education, and studied psychology and English at the College of William and Mary. I love kids and have been babysitting since I was 12! I'm also a teacher-- I'm teaching a weekly theater class for toddlers this winter, and various summer camps for three different age groups during the summer. I have over 10 years of experience working with children to develop confidence, imagination, and verbal skills. I'm happy to help with household chores. I also love animals, though I hope you won't hold it against me that I'm a cat person!
“Lucy was an amazing sitter, both kind and willing to jump into whatever three-year-old nonsense came to mind. My daughter truly enjoyed having her visit -- high praise!”
Hello! My name is Jessica and I am a Midwest native who has happily made a home in Washington, DC for the last 14 years. I am a cat mom to a 4 year old cat Winnie and have grown up with family dogs since the age of 6. I am the youngest of three daughters and am a very lucky aunt to four nieces from the ages of 3-8 years old. I am very fortunate to be close with my family and to get to spend time caring and shaping my nieces. Outside of family, I have experience as a babysitter during all four years of my college experience at American University, ranging from afterschool care for 2+ kids to babysitting during evenings or weekends, assisting with meals, playtime, and homework. In addition, I often pet sit for friends and neighbors, helping with play time, getting in walks, feeding, and litter box cleaning. I would love to connect and see if I am the right fit to care for your kids or animals!
“Jessica was delightful! She arrived early, was pleasant and professional, and jumped right in with the kids. Definitely would recommend her!”
Hi, my name is Myka! I’ve always had a passion caring for children ever since I could remember. I’ve gained several years of childcare experience, caring for ages newborn to school-age in various settings such as daycare, in-home nanny and being a school nurse. Being a mother myself has also given me further knowledge and experience in caring for newborns to school-age.
“Myka is wonderful to work with! She is reliable, punctual and most importantly she is so kind and loving with our two energetic boys and we came back to two very happy kids who asked when she could come back again. ”
Hello! I am fun, caring, and dependable and have 3+ years of experience working with preschool and elementary age children in different childcare, after-school, and classroom settings. I currently work as a tutor at an elementary school in DCPS. I love getting to know and spend time with kids-- playing games, doing arts and crafts, reading, exploring, and more! I strive to ensure all kids feel safe, loved, and supported as they learn and grow. I am happy to help with homework, chores, and other housekeeping tasks. I am patient, empathetic, and creative, and will go the extra mile to ensure your children are well cared for!

"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."
