Alyson $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! If you are seeking a seasoned, kind, compassionate and highly intuitive caregiver, you have come to the right profile! My background in professional theater, education and special education have honed my innate talents in connecting with and providing positive and enriching experiences for the children and young adults with whom I have worked. My charges have included many children who are neurodiverse including those with Autism. I'm fit, active and energetic with "fun Auntie" or "cool (young) G-ma" vibes. But I'm also a more type B, caregiver who would be perfect for a child that needs a bit more of a nurturing presence rather than just a playmate. I also adore Dogs and am available to care for SMALL dogs.

Sophia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sophia and I am a consultant living and working in Northern Virginia. I have experience babysitting children through my college town in Vermont and while growing up in Central Florida. I speak English and Korean fluently, can cook and clean efficiently, and I am very detail-oriented. I also do CrossFit, run, and played collegiate golf. I am committed to providing attentive care that meets the needs of your loved ones! I am very comfortable with dogs and cats, and would happily babysit in households with pets and children or outright watch either. I am also CPR certified!

Raya $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Raya, and I recently moved from Beirut, Lebanon, to Washington, DC, to pursue my undergraduate studies at Georgetown University, where I’m a first-year student. Growing up in a big family, I’ve had extensive experience babysitting children of all ages. I can also prepare healthy meals for your kids since I worked at a “healthy living” restaurant for 2 summers! I am trilingual, speaking English, French, and Arabic fluently, which allows me to communicate with a diverse range of families. I’m also in training to become an EMT, learning to respond to emergency medical situations such as choking, allergic reactions, and more, so safety is always a priority for me. I would love to bring my energy, responsibility, and care to your family!
