Hi! I’m Madison, a graduate student at George Washington University and employee at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. I have been doing childcare since middle school, including babysitting for families with over 6 kids, infants, church programs, and more! I would love to help out in any way possible, and I’m super flexible in activities and can transport kids, clean, or just entertain and watch kids! I also have experience pet sitting dogs, cats, chickens, and fish!
My name is Dana and I’m a college freshman at Marist University! I’ve lived in Columbia heights my whole and know the area like the back of my hand. Nurturing young minds is truly my passion. With about four years of experience caring for children aged 0-4, I bring a friendly and enthusiastic approach to every interaction. I'm dedicated to fostering a positive environment where children can learn and grow. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and even some educational technology-based games. I am comfortable caring for up to four children at a time. I have a car, am comfortable with pets, and am fluent in both English and Spanish. I have my babysitting certificate from the American Red Cross. I am also trained in CPR and First Aid. I would love to bring my energy and experience to your family and create happy memories for your children.
“Dana arrived right on time and was very personable. She was prepared, even bringing along some books for the kids to read. My son (2) was very upset when we left but she was able to calm him down quickly after we left. My daughter had a lot of fun and is already asking when she can come back!”

Hi all! My name is Mary Rose, and I’m a second year PhD student studying Clinical and Pediatric Psychology and living in Washington, DC. I’m available this summer for daytime and evening babysitting on select days. I love working with and caring for children of all ages! I'm new to UrbanSitter, but I have 10+ years of experience serving as an assistant teacher, swim instructor, and summer camp counselor for children 4 to 12 years old at multiple programs in the DMV. I enjoy leading arts and crafts project, science and reading activities, and field trips to the Zoo, museums, and the pool! In addition to being CPR-certified, I can cook meals and contribute to tasks such as laundry and household tidying. I also offer academic tutoring services in language arts, social studies, and writing for older children, and provide feedback and writing support for applications to college and graduate school.
8 years of babysitting experience has taught me patience and adaptability. I’ve also worked as a dog walker and cleaner, making me comfortable with household responsibilities.

"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!"
