Mikhail $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi, im Mike, your new babysitter! During the week, I work with kids, but I'm ready to bring that magic to your front doorstep. If you're looking for a weekend getaway, a night out, or even a last minute call-in, i'm your guy. Even when it seems like I might not have the time, my schedule is made to prioritize your home, your children, your pets, and most importantly: YOU. I usually work with kids aged 5-12, but I've never been known to shy away from working with new ages. So as long as you'd tell me everything I should know, I can get the job done. No kids, no problem! If you need a pet sitter, house sitter, or just a clean house then im still the right call to make. I'm experienced with pets, and know my way around a broom. So what are you waiting for? You need time for you, and I'm ready to give you peace of mind.

Usha $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m Usha! I’m reliable, caring, and love working with kids. I enjoy planning fun activities, helping with routines, and making sure children feel safe and supported. Families can count on me to be on time, dependable, and attentive. A little about me, I live in the Reston community, love being active, and also have a sweet dog named Theo, so I’m very comfortable around pets. I’d love the chance to bring positive energy to your family and make life a little easier while giving your kids a fun and safe experience.

Hi everyone! My name is Lizzi and I am currently a high school counselor.

I have worked at multiple daycare centers, babysat multiple families for 15+ years, and was a nanny for the same family for 11 years. I really enjoy reading with kids, going outside, and playing board games/games around the house. If this sounds like a good fit for you or if you have any questions please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you soon :) Summer Availability: Date nights during the week/weekend. Rates may vary based on job description/location Minimums: 4 hours during the week, 5 hours on weekends School Year Availability: Date nights during the week/weekend.

Lizzi is wonderful! Responsible, lots of experience, great with our little girl (who can be shy but warmed up to Lizzi very quickly). Ready to have her back again any time and already booking our next time with her!

Booked by 7 families in Haymarket, VA

I am a Senior at Shenandoah University, where I play lacrosse and study Psychology, hoping to become a NICU/ pediatric nurse or a speech-language pathologist. I love kids and enjoy being active and being outside as well as cooking and baking. I have been both a nanny and an occasional babysitter for about 5 years. I also have dog sat as well as cat sat. I am also experienced in senior care, as I cared for my grandmother and did 40 hours of clinicals in a senior living center.
