Find an emergency babysitter in Annandale, VA

Hi! I’ve worked with over 40 families, including several long-term (over a year with some). I provide reliable, nurturing childcare and can assist with meal prep and light housekeeping when combined with child care (for an additional fee). I’m CPR/First Aid certified and happy to help with homework support. I’m currently looking for a long-term, part-time position with a great family. Previously, I lived in Colombia for 2 years, where I taught kindergarten through 2nd grade, and also led extracurricular classes for middle school students. Was teaching English for kids in some villages in Bali. I also worked as a personal assistant, so I’m comfortable adapting to different routines and family dynamics. I speak English, Indonesian, and Spanish, and I love animals so dogs and cats are always welcome. In my free time, I’m very active and love trying new sports , currently doing horseback riding and crossfit and I’ve also enjoyed archery, bouldering, and other adventurous activities.

I have 25 plus years of experience caring/teaching children and managing a home. Besides raising three children of my own, I have also taught swimming lessons for 20 summers, substitute taught, homeschooled, cared for twins, managed diabetes, am CPR/AED/First Aid certified, Newborn Care Specialist cert, Birth and Postpartum Doula certs, held live-in and live-out positions in the MD, VA, DC area, and have excellent references. I enjoy taking children on fun outings to the zoo, library, parks, museums, live music, puppet shows, feed the ducks, etc. I am also very active and play or have played most sports. In addition to having fun with the children, I am very educational minded and I teach them at all stages of development--sitting, walking, talking, ABC's, numbers, colors, shapes, reading, manners, respect, thankfulness, kindness, sharing, etc. Kids love me and I love them! I do have a current background check and am happy to bring it with me or send to you by email.

Hi! My name is Carmen and I am a junior at Georgetown University studying business! I have been babysitting my moms friends kids since I was little and have always loved working with kids. I have experience volunteering at an orphanage where I visit once a week and work mostly with babies 0-3 years old. I also work part time at Georgetown with a family of 2 kids (3 months and 2 years old!) and a family with a 5 month-old girl. I have experience feeding, bathing, and keeping kids entertained! I like working with kids because through babysitting I get to relive my childhood through the eyes of the kids I care for. There is so much to learn from children and I love to teach them the alphabet, colors, animals while I learn from them. I also speak Spanish, so also love to teach little ones Spanish if it is okay with the parents! In my spare time, I like to journal, go on walks, try new coffee shops, and spend time with friends and family. My skills include bedtime routine, cooking, and tutoring. I am open to working with families with pets!

Hi! My name is Leevel, and I’m so excited to support families in my community. I’m originally from Denver, Colorado, and I’m currently a college student at The George Washington University, where I’m studying Political Science. I have several years of experience working with children in different settings. In 2024, I served as a Girls on the Run coach, mentoring elementary and middle school girls and creating a positive, confidence-building environment. This past summer, I worked at a summer camp, leading activities, supervising groups, and ensuring every child felt safe and engaged. Right now, I’m a tutor at an elementary school during the weekdays, working closely with students and adapting to different personalities, learning styles, and needs. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. I’d love to be a reliable and supportive part of your family’s routine!

Hello families! I’m a professional full-time nanny and a teacher with a genuine passion for working with children and supporting their growth and development. My experience in both childcare and education helps me create an environment that is safe, nurturing, engaging, and age-appropriate. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and dependable, and I enjoy combining fun activities with opportunities for children to learn, explore, and develop new skills. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting during my days off, weekday evenings, and date nights, depending on my schedule. I can assist with dinner, playtime, bedtime routines, and educational activities, while making sure children feel comfortable and cared for. I know that trust is essential when choosing a babysitter, and I prioritize safety, clear communication, and respecting each family’s routines and preferences.
