I am an energetic and hardworking recent graduate with 10 years of experience of increasing responsibility in childcare. I have recently relocated from the Bronx NYC area, back to the Columbia Heights DC area! I am able to respond efficiently and creatively to unusual or difficult situations and am highly adept at planning and supervising children while constructing a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. Here is a bit of background about me: I grew up in the heart of Washington DC and have worked as a local babysitter for upwards of four years. In addition to having an impressive record of parent and child satisfaction, I am also highly proficient in structuring playtime and lessons to fit the needs of children under my supervision. I can efficiently cook for and feed children, actively engage children in exciting activities ( i.e. park visits, Lego building tournaments, dancing games), and perform light housekeeping if needed. Professionally, I have worked as a middle school math tutor and mentor. I've also worked as a camp counselor at Sidwell Summer and was responsible for creating and supervising daily activities, engaging campers, managing behavior, and maintaining a welcoming an exciting atmosphere.
“Jasmin brings a warm, calming presence to our home when she cares for our kids. She’s patient and very kind with the way she speaks and handles herself. My kids are not very close in age but Jasmin seems to always make sure to engage with them at their level. My 11 year old has mentioned she’s creative and fun while my 2 year old smiles and welcomes her when he sees her (which is a big deal for us). Overall it’s been a pleasure to work with Jasmin and we hope to continue to use her services going forward.”
Hello families! My name is Claire Guthrie. I am currently living in Idaho, but will be moving to D.C. in June for school. I am going to school for early childhood development, I will be doing classes online and will be attending part time. I am looking for an amazing family to work for as a nanny. I have about 1 1/2 years of experience at a daycare. I worked mostly with toddlers and infants but got a ton of experience with school age children as well. I currently work as a nanny for 18 month old twin boys. I’ve been working with them for 14 months, and enjoyed every moment of it. It breaks my heart to leave, but I need to further my career and get an education. I need to work full time to keep up with living expenses and ask for at least $25 an hour considering I am living by myself, and going to school as well. I am also open to date nights and other babysitting jobs as well! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! Thanks, Claire
Hallo, My name is Genesis I am a mother of 3 children and grandparent of 4. I love taking care of children especially infants and toddlers. Am currently working as a cashier at Walmart, but before I was taking care of my granddaughter in New York from 2[removed]. I love playing with kids, reading story books, going for a walk and going to the play ground near by the neighborhood if it’s safe to go. Safety comes first when it comes to kids. I can cook and clean well. Currently I don’t drive.
I’m an experienced, energetic and responsible young adult woman. I love kids and have experience both in house babysitting 2 young girls over 5 years, as well as working in a performance training facility with the youth group of ages 3-15 years old. I have loved teaching young girls and boys to move their bodies safely & efficiently and know how to keep them busy. I’ve worked with both disabled, hyperactive, and the overly shy kids. I believe my experience leading large groups (10+ kids) of youth can make me a unique babysitter. Currently, I am a full time personal trainer based in DC and a holistic nutrition & health coach for my own wellness brand.. and I just miss working with kids!! Looking for a part time/ occasional gig to fill in my free time and flexible schedule (I’m also new to the area, so happy to see different neighborhoods and meet nice families!)
My name is Kaia and I’ve been responsible for taking care of and looking after children in various capacities. Whether it be my baby cousins, the neighborhood toddler, youth camps, or VBS I’ve been able to keep kids entertained and orderly. I’m good at arts and crafts, reading in different voices, creating dance routines, and playing pretend. Additionally, I have a French bulldog that has required a number of medical needs and attention. For 8+ years I did commercial cleaning services.

"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."
