Jennifer $18 per hour for 1 child

I am a goofy, smiley 26 year old who loves infants and children. I have 5 years of experience working with children and babysitting. I work as a CNA in Postpartum and Pediatrics. I am very comfortable caring for infants and young children (therefore very patient :)). I am also comfortable with pets, and am willing to help with small tasks around the house if asked!

Valeria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi. My name is Valeria, I'm 26 years old, I speak Spanish. I’m a responsible, affectionate, and patient person. I enjoy playing with children and supporting them in their daily activities. I always try to share joy and create a calm, positive environment for the children and people around me. I also love animals, so I feel comfortable taking care of both children and pets when needed. My English level is basic/intermediate but I'm still learning. I don't have my own car but I do have a driver's license. I currently work in a bakery as a decorator, which allows me to be creative and enjoy making different things.

Margaret $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Margo. I come from a large family and have been surrounded by children my entire life. I was raised helping care for my younger sibling and cousins, and I am now a very involved aunt to 14 nieces and nephews whom I am extremely close to. Caring for children has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. I have experience babysitting infants through 10-year-olds, including children with special needs, who I have a particular heart for. I am warm, fun, personable, and highly adaptable. I do well with different family dynamics and parenting styles, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love cooking, baking, and am able to drive kids around, house or pet sit. I take my role as a caretaker seriously and truly enjoy building meaningful, trusting relationships with both children and parents.

Booked by 4 families in Centreville, VA

Hello everyone! My name is Jennifer and I currently live in Vienna. I currently work full-time, but I love babysitting on the side! I have the option to work remotely from home so I am available to take babysitting jobs right after work and on weekends! I absolutely LOVE kids and I have a lot of experience babysitting kids of ALL ages (1-10). For reference, I used to babysit for a family with 3 kids (ages 1, 4, 6). I babysat them every week for 6 months. I would also watch their dog while I was there. I would cook for them, play with them, read to them, and go though their bedtime routine. We would also do fun stuff like have read books, sing songs, draw pictures, and play games! I also used to babysit a 8 month old boy every Monday, Wednesday, Friday every week for a year. I would be with him 8 hours a day. I would take him on stroller walks, change his diapers, put him to bed for naps, cook/feed him, etc. I would also watch and take care of their puppy on the job. Now that I have a full time job, I still love babysitting when I can! I am also very good with dogs and animals! I have a dog if my own, named Bella, and I have experience taking care of the family’s dogs while babysitting. Please do not hesitate to reach out!

“Jennifer was great! So kind and communicative, and our daughter took to her right away. Highly recommend! ”
