Hi! I work for DC Public Library and have been working in libraries for over 7 years now and I love it! I'm happy to get back to sitting occasionally to spend time engaging in fun activities like park visits, imaginative play, reading, kid-friendly cooking, and music/art! I don't have kids of my own so getting to spend time and care for others is a joy and privilege that I don't take for granted. I enjoy being a caregiver and sharing the present moment with kids. It feels less like work and more like an escape from my daily routine! My schedule varies as I work every other weekend and one full weekend a month (both Saturday and Sunday). I also have Thursday mornings off if anyone needs help then! I've worked with children aged 1 to 12 and infants (3 months+) locally since 2011. Before DC, I went abroad to au pair for a family with two young children (2 and 4 years old when I arrived). My duties have included: Meal prep/ Feeding (bottles, babyfood etc.) Light housekeeping Drop offs/ Pick ups Caring for sick toddlers and infants Medicine Adminstration Activities and Outings Supervision and chaperoning in various settings (home and away) Tutoring and homework help Help caring for pets (dogs and cats) My longest full-time childcare job was working abroad as an au pair. I stayed with the family for over a year and a half, working afternoons, all day Wednesday (off-school day), and the occasional evening, weekend, or vacation sitting.
“Aimee connected with our girls right away. She was on-time, and had great communication throughout. Would definitely recommend!”
I have over 5 years of experience with caring for children of all ages whether new borns or teens. It started with taking care of family members being a first- born daughter in my big family and expanding to neighbors and friends. With a degree in business management and training in psychology, I bring patience, understanding, and the ability to engage children of all ages in age-appropriate activities. My experience as a certified HCA caregiver, including a year of live-in care, has further developed my ability to ensure safety and wellbeing. I follow parents' guidelines for discipline and respect each family’s preferences. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, keeping tasks within the home. I prioritize clear communication with parents to provide the best care possible for their children. Can’t wait to meet future families 😊
“Hilary was great! She very quickly connect with my toddler and handled the bedtime routine perfectly. She was so kind and professional. We’ll definitely have her back.”
I am dedicated and dependable with 10years experience as a baby sitter. Am flexible and adaptable with extensive knowledge of childcare and development. Am devoted to helping children in what they have a passion for. I love to help out in school work, light meal preparation and generally take care of the kids. Am fun, responsible and loving and at the same time know how to set boundaries and maintain decorum in the home at all times. However and unfortunately, I am not animal friendly
“She was wonderful. We came back to kids sleeping peacefully and a living room cleaned up from all toys and dinner. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
As a philosophy and English major at Howard University, I bring a unique blend of intellectual curiosity and communication skills to the table. My experience as a debate coach for middle schoolers at DC Prep showcases my ability to guide and mentor young minds. Additionally, my role in caring for my 4 younger siblings, aged 18 months to 17 years old, along with four years of dedicated care for my infant cousins, highlights my nurturing nature. This extensive background in childcare, coupled with my college studies, demonstrates a well-rounded skill set for the role of your child Or children baby sitter. My natural patience and emphasis on communication further underscore my suitability, making me an ideal candidate to ensure a safe and enriching environment for children under my care.

Hello! My name is Natalie. I started babysitting when I was in middle school and volunteered in my church to watch children. In high school, I took child growth and development courses and volunteered in schools. I worked at daycares, home childcare, and a private school. I have worked with ages from newborn to 12 years of age. I am CPR certified, CDA certified, college courses and additional training in breastfeeding, ADA, etc. . I’m currently pursuing my degree and my dream is to start a nonprofit organization that will help families and children across the world and open a postpartum center for women in need. I am currently an early childhood educator and I enjoy working with all ages. I love to read and write durning my free time. I also like to try new foods and go to new places. I am a mother to a joyful 4 year old and love to take him on adventures. My passion is teaching children and watching them grow and they inspire me everyday.
“Natalie was great. Punctual and friendly. She had good communication with my son and no issues while I was away. Much appreciated. ”

"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!"
