Hi, My name is Nyeasha and I am a graduate of East Carolina University with a degree in English and a minor in Child Pedagogy. I have been in childcare since I was young. The ages of the children that I have taken care of range from infancy to 11 years. I currently work at a Law Firm during the day so my availability is limited to nights and weekends. I hope to hear from you soon :) -Nyeasha
“Nyeasha is so nice - our 4 year old was immediately comfortable with her and had a good time!”
I would love to use my free time to babysit for your children. I have babysat on and off for years, and love all ages of kids - from playing games with toddlers, to helping older children with their homework. I am not afraid to get down and dirty with the kids, or discipline them when needed. I hope to hear from you and your family soon!
“Amazing, thank you!”
My name is Lucy and I work part-time for the education department of a local theater! I'm passionate about children's education, and studied psychology and English at the College of William and Mary. I love kids and have been babysitting since I was 12! I'm also a teacher-- I'm teaching a weekly theater class for toddlers this winter, and various summer camps for three different age groups during the summer. I have over 10 years of experience working with children to develop confidence, imagination, and verbal skills. I'm happy to help with household chores. I also love animals, though I hope you won't hold it against me that I'm a cat person!
“Lucy was an amazing sitter, both kind and willing to jump into whatever three-year-old nonsense came to mind. My daughter truly enjoyed having her visit -- high praise!”
Hello! My name is Jessica and I am a Midwest native who has happily made a home in Washington, DC for the last 14 years. I am a cat mom to a 4 year old cat Winnie and have grown up with family dogs since the age of 6. I am the youngest of three daughters and am a very lucky aunt to four nieces from the ages of 3-8 years old. I am very fortunate to be close with my family and to get to spend time caring and shaping my nieces. Outside of family, I have experience as a babysitter during all four years of my college experience at American University, ranging from afterschool care for 2+ kids to babysitting during evenings or weekends, assisting with meals, playtime, and homework. In addition, I often pet sit for friends and neighbors, helping with play time, getting in walks, feeding, and litter box cleaning. I would love to connect and see if I am the right fit to care for your kids or animals!
“Jessica was delightful! She arrived early, was pleasant and professional, and jumped right in with the kids. Definitely would recommend her!”
Hi all! I’m Katherine and I am looking for occasional caregiving opportunities in the evenings and on weekends. I’ve been babysitting for over 10 years. I studied psychology at Villanova and have several years of experience working with children ages 0-12, including babysitting, lifeguarding and swim instruction, and early childhood research. While working on my masters, I worked for several families with multiple children of varying ages. My responsibilities included driving children to and from activities, meal preparation, swim supervision, and age-appropriate play activities.
“Katherine was wonderful to work with!”

"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."
Theresa M., parent
"Hannah was awesome. Went above & beyond to help me with a last minute emergency. She was really sweet & great with my 16mo old. Highly recommend!!"
