Hello! I’ve been providing childcare for a range of ages in the District for over 15 years. I am a social worker, artist, and love to be outside. I am high energy and find hanging out with children and entertaining them to be so much fun! I am very comfortable with animals as well, I love dogs! Currently I have some families I provide dog sitting for in their homes when they go on trips. I volunteer at an animal sanctuary farms and rescue shelters, comfortable with all types of animals. I use this app to connect with families to build good working relationships, and many families I currently work with have worked with me for many years. Unfortunately I cannot offer full time child care, but I am a great option for date nights or weekends.
I am fully-vaccinated and ready to babysit! Hi! My name is Annie and I am 28 years old. I have been babysitting since I was 20 while in college for multiple families. I was also a camp counselor summers in high school and one summer in college. I am currently a pre-k teacher. I absolutely love kids and will go above and beyond for families. I also frequently babysit for the same families I did in college evenings and weekends!
I've worked with children in two main capacities: as a babysitter here in DC and San Francisco for multiple years and as a camp counselor at a summer camp. I love working with children with a variety of ages, and I have experience caring for ones ranging from a few months up to middle school. Additionally, I have worked with children with special needs and for families with multiple children. My availability is evenings during the week and days and nights on weekends.
I love kids and wish I had more time to spend with them. I have extensive babysitting experience which includes substituting at Head Start (pre-K), regularly watching older toddlers (4-5 yrs.), and most recently taking care of a one-year-old. When babysitting I like playtime and educational and fun activities. I often would bake and do arts and crafts with the older toddlers. I try to limit screen time as much as possible. With the one-year-old I would do activities to promote development and make the little guy laugh! I look forward to hearing from you.
“Temeka’s attention to details and love for kids makes her a dependable and repeatable hire for busy families! Thank you!”

"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."
