Hello! I’m Veronika, a dedicated 37-year-old mother of two outstanding high school students. I’m excited to offer my child care and household services to families looking for reliable support. With over ten years of experience in daycare, where I worked with children from three months to five years old, as well as serving as a nanny for various age groups, I deeply understand how to create a safe and nurturing environment for kids. I enjoy engaging children in arts and crafts, taking walks, and exploring outdoor activities. Safety is my highest priority, and I am committed to caring for your child as if they were my own. I believe in the power of respect and open communication, and I strive to make your family feel comfortable and confident in my care. Additionally, I’m more than willing to assist with household tasks and will gladly follow the rules of your home. Thank you for considering me. I look forward to working with you!

I have over 2.5 years of hands-on childcare experience as an au pair, caring for two children from infancy (4 months old) through their toddler years. My responsibilities included feeding, diaper changes, nap routines, age-appropriate educational activities, meal preparation, and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. In addition, I volunteer regularly with the Pre-K ministry at my local church, where I help supervise and engage a group of up to 10 children ages 4–6. I lead crafts, read stories, organize interactive activities, and help create a fun, safe, and welcoming environment for the children. I am a responsible, patient, and caring caregiver who enjoys supporting children’s development through play, learning, and positive relationships. As a bilingual English and Spanish speaker, I can also provide language exposure for families who value a multicultural environment.

Hi. My name is Arailym and I babysit. I am available every weekday after 4 except for Tuesdays when I am available at 3:15/3:30 and all day on weekends. I am available during the evenings and am currently able to watch any age but am more experienced in infants and toddlers. I have taken courses and am looking at renewing my lifeguarding certification as I am a counselor at a camp during the summer. I am very energetic and love kids, hoping to pursue a career in education when I graduate high school. I am very flexible and am comfortable caring for many kids. The most I have cared for at once was four of five but am sure I can handle more if needed. I am able to adapt and accommodate. I do not have my own car. Looking forward to working with you all! I am 18 and so excited to meet you and your child!

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!
