Delfina $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Delfina and I’m 26 years old. I’m from Argentina and love teaching Spanish to kids! I’m about to start studying Early childhood development and looking to fill up some of my free hours between classes and my current part time nanny position. I have more than 7 years of experience taking care of kids of all ages -infants till teens. I’m CPR and first aid certified. I have my own car -clean driving record- and I’m willing to drive kids places if needed. I love spending time outside, going to the local library and doing fun things while babysitting! I’m okay with pets in the house and wouldn’t mind helping out with light household tasks if needed. If you think we can be a good match don’t doubt reaching out. Thank you!

Hi, I’m Virginia, and I work from home as an HR project manager with my own beagle-Bassett hound as a steady coworker. He’s almost 6 years old (DOB 09/2020) and playful, chill, spunky. My weekly schedule is fairly predictable and flexible so I’m looking forward to being able to help care for your dog, too!

“Virginia is the best! She is so caring and kind with our Cavapoo, Mochi, and gives us complete peace of mind knowing our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We’re so grateful for her!”

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.
