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!
Hi! My name is Samantha and I am currently a student at Georgetown University studying Economics. I am looking for part-time childcare and household support opportunities and I have many years of experience caring for children of different ages through long-term babysitting roles I held throughout middle school and high school. For four years, I babysat for a family with two young children, beginning when their oldest daughter was a toddler and later helping care for her infant younger brother as he grew. I also spent three years caring for another wonderful family with two children, an energetic 8-year-old girl and her younger brother who was 5. Over the years, I became someone both families could consistently rely on to care for their children with patience, attentiveness, and genuine warmth. I truly love working with kids and always tried to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for them. Some of my favorite activities included outdoor play, walks to parks and playgrounds, arts and crafts, reading together, baking and cooking simple meals, movie nights, imaginative games, and helping with homework and bedtime routines. I also regularly prepared meals and snacks, helped keep shared spaces organized, and cared for family pets whenever needed. More than anything, I understand the amount of trust families place in someone caring for their children and I have always taken that responsibility very seriously. I pride myself on being dependable, nurturing, organized, and calm under pressure, and I genuinely value building strong relationships with both children and parents over time. I would love the opportunity to support your family however I can!
Hi, my names Eleni! I’m currently finishing up my second degree in Nursing. I have been a nanny for over 10 years! I’m very friendly, extremely active, and love working with children. I am flexible and available to help out with meals, crafts, homework, carpool, after school activities, etc. Also- available to help with dogs and house sitting! I am CPR certified and have a clean driving record. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family ☺️
“Eleni was a wonderful sitter. Our 3 boys absolutely loved her! She was punctual and reliable. We'll definitely ask her to help again!”
Hi everyone – My name is Steffy and I am passionate about childcare, and household services. I love being around kids and have always been surrounded by family. As the first grandchild, I grew up taking care of all my younger cousins until they became independent, which gave me valuable experience. I also love cooking, which is my other job, and enjoy preparing meals for families. Caring for others is one of the most important values my parents taught me, and I carry that into my work. I am passionate about organizing and cleaning, which makes me well-suited to handle household tasks and run errands efficiently. I am a big animal lover, having had 3 dogs and 6 turtles, so I’m happy to work with pets as well! Babysitting and caregiving allow me to combine my love for kids, cooking, organizing, and helping others. I look forward to working with your family!
Hi! My name is Danielle and I'm an elementary teacher assistant for Arlington Public Schools. I am offering child care during after school hours and weekends. I love being a babysitter and have been caring for children preschool-aged and older since middle school! I also have a few years of experience with infants and toddlers, and have worked in several childcare centers. I have my own car, am First Aid and CPR certified, and happy to share proof of my COVID vaccinations and background check clearance. Pricing is negotiable :)
“Dani was great with the kids and we will definitely work with her again and will recommend here to others.”

"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."
