Kadijah A $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a passionate nanny with years of experience caring for children of all ages — newborns, toddlers, and preteens alike. I started nannying in high school and carried it all the way through college because it's something I truly love. I’m now working as a Compliance Consultant and want to spend the rest of my afternoons/evenings with even more fulfillment. I'm compassionate, dependable, and genuinely invested in every child's growth and wellbeing. I enjoy supporting developmental goals, helping with homework, and being a warm, steady presence families can count on. I'm also CPR and first aid certified for extra peace of mind. I'd love to learn more about your family — feel free to reach out!

Booked by 1 family in West Mclean, VA

Hi family! My name is Ángela, I am 25 years old and originally from Colombia. I have childcare experience from my home country, caring for children of different ages. I truly enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment for them. I am responsible, patient, and reliable, and I always prioritize the children’s well-being and daily routines. I also love dogs and feel comfortable being around pets. I would love the opportunity to support your family.

“Angela helped us out last minute to babysit our daughter who was home sick from school. She arrived a few minutes early and immediately engaged our daughter. You can tell she is both an experienced babysitter and a lovely person. Our daughter reported that she was “so, so nice.” We look forward to having her over again! ”

Samantha $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Samantha! I’m a junior at William & Mary and am offering babysitting services for families with up to three children. As a caregiver, I prioritize safety, kindness, and mutual respect. I’ve been babysitting for nearly 5 years and am experienced with children ages 9 months and above. I’ve been employed by families with up to four children and with neurodiverse children. I’m looking for short-term work opportunities while back home in Northern Virginia. I’m available until late June, when I leave for a study abroad program in Europe. I’m happy to run errands, cook/prep meals, and do light housekeeping tasks. I have my own car and am CPR and first-aid certified. Most pets are ok (I love cats especially!) but please no high-energy big dogs!
