Laila 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

I am 24 years old. I am excellent with kids. I have been working with kids for 10+ years. I started working with kids as a volunteer at a private school in Rockville when I was a teenager. And since then I’ve really enjoyed working with kids. I love music, food, video games, road trips, traveling, etc. I love to collect stuffed animals & I love to cook. I’ve recently taken up tennis as a hobby.

I worked with Laila in an after-school program, and she was always reliable, caring, and great with the kids. She was patient, professional, and did a great job keeping the children engaged while making sure they were safe and following their routines. She worked well with both the kids and the staff, and you could tell she genuinely cared about the children she was working with. I would definitely recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and dependable babysitter.

Emma 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Emma and I'm offering childcare, pet services, and household services. I have babysat ages 6 months-13 years since I was 16 and I worked as a camp counselor for several years. I work in the science and space sector and enjoy sharing space facts along with conducting science experiments! I was also a studio art minor in college, so I love doing arts and crafts with kids. I grew up with two cats and two dogs that I adore and miss very much, so I am happy to care for any animals — the more the merrier! I am also offering household services, including cleaning and organizing.

We’ve had a great experience with her. She’s extremely professional, always punctual, and immediately connected with our kids — ages 11, 3, and 5 months. She keeps each of them engaged at their level, handles routines smoothly, and we feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care. Highly recommend.

Anna 1 review

Booked by 1 family in Chevy Chase, MD

Hello! My name is Anna, and I’m a 21 year old pre-med student at Georgetown University. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 and have spent the past five years as a nanny for a wonderful family of five in Princeton, caring for their three children from infancy through early childhood. Over the years, I’ve built strong, long-term relationships with families and truly enjoy supporting children as they grow and learn. In addition to childcare, I have been a certified EMT since age 16 and continue to volunteer both at home and at Georgetown University. Families describe me as dependable, energetic, and compassionate, and I bring both safety and fun to every caregiving role. I am offering child care, dog care, and house sitting. I am looking forward to making those connections here in DC!

Anna was kind and professional, super easy to communicate with babysitter. She was attentive and engaging and we loved our time with her. We will absolutely book again!

"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!"
