Hi! I’m Kiley, a 31 year old professional who works on the Hill in operations. I am from Tucson, AZ and spent the majority of my high school and college years babysitting for a couple of the same families consistently and also house sitting. I enjoy yoga and riding horses in my free time. I have two bachelor degrees and a master’s degree from Texas A&M. I am looking for some occasional babysitting/nannying jobs and/or house sitting. Happy to chat more!
Hi! I’m someone who genuinely enjoys helping people and making life a little easier for the families I work with. I’m dependable, patient, and caring, and I always try to create a safe, comfortable, and positive environment. Whether I’m caring for children, spending time with seniors, looking after pets, or helping around the house, I treat every family with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would give my own. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind knowing your loved ones and your home are in good hands.
“She was prompt and super friendly. Had snacks and juices and activities ready my kinda caregiver!! Def recommend and will def call her again 💕 ”
Hi! I’m looking to pick up some part-time or occasional babysitting gigs near the Capitol Hill area. I’ve been babysitting and nannying since I was 13 and have experience with all ages! Most recently I’ve done a lot of work with infants and toddlers. I worked part time with a family for two years with two children (an infant and 2 year old) while I was a grad student. I will play with your kids and be present with them. My phone will be away when I’m with them :) I'm also happy to discuss additional support with things like meal prep, laundry, or light cleaning. I'm comfortable with pets and also have experience pet-sitting for dogs and cats. I look forward to meeting you and seeing if we’ll be a good fit. References available upon request.
I'm a dedicated cat-sitter with experience following diligent instructions, taking care of pets with various needs (medical, social, etc) and showering them with love when their families need someone to look after them!
“Amazing”
Hi there! I’m Kim — a full-time certified Life Coach with a heart for nurturing kids and caring for pets. Before stepping into the world of coaching, I worked as a Teacher’s Aide in a youth corrections facility, where I learned firsthand how vital a safe, loving, and playful environment is for a child’s development. That experience, along with many joyful summers as a camp counselor and director during college, confirmed that I’m a big softy at heart who thrives when supporting young people with patience, compassion, and fun. I bring that same care and intentionality into every babysitting job — whether it’s a quiet night in with bedtime stories or an afternoon filled with imaginative games and outdoor play. And let’s not forget the pets! As a proud dog mom, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family members. I offer walks, feeding, snuggles, playtime, and can even work from your home to spend more time with your pets throughout the day. Availability: 🗓️ Weekdays: 5 PM – 1 AM 🗓️ Weekends: Available all day If you’re looking for a reliable, warmhearted sitter who brings both experience and care to your family, I’d love to connect!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
