Hi! I’m Danica, a recent master’s graduate in education with a strong background in childcare, pet care, and household services. I’ve spent over three years working with toddlers and older children in Montessori classrooms, early intervention settings, and as a caregiver, plus some experience with infants. I love doing crafts, baking, and spending time outdoors with kids, and I’m always happy to help with homework too. I’m also an animal lover! I have two cats and a dog of my own and have cared for many pets over the years. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just playing and giving them attention, I’m comfortable with all breeds (even the big, fluffy ones). On top of that, I can help keep your home running smoothly. I have past experience as a house cleaner and can take care of cooking, cleaning, errands, laundry, and organizing. Families can count on me to be warm, reliable, and to keep their home running smoothly while making every day feel special and fun for their children.
I have many years of experience babysitting and caring for children of all ages. I've worked as a babysitter throughout high school and worked part-time as a daycare teaching assistant during college. I'm very enthusiastic, kind and reliable. I can help with light housekeeping.
Im a student at American University who is great with kids and dogs. Im always ready to play and have fun with kids of all ages. Ive volunteered at kids bible camps as well as youth programs from ages 2 - 13. Ive also volunteered at a dog rescue for around 5 years and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes.
Hi! I’m Ava. I am in my early full time career following graduating college in 2024. Growing up as the oldest kid on my street by about 10 years & my mom being a full time nanny, I have plenty of experience working with children of all ages and behaviors. I have long been the go-to for my community in Northern Virginia, and I’m excited to spend my free time doing the same in the DC area. Aside from babysitting, I’ve spent 4 summers as a full time nanny to two different families with children ranging from 3 to 11. Before I kicked off my full time marketing career, I worked in marketing for a summer camp in DC, where I quickly became many parent’s point of contact and go-to when children needed additional support. I make a conscious effort to lead my childcare approach with empathy & patience and it is something I have so much fun doing. Looking forward to supporting parents in the DC community!
Hello! I am friendly, creative, and have experience working with infants to school-age children. Additionally, I can also provide care for seniors, pets, and plants. I have a BS in biology and psychology and a Master of Public Health focusing in education. I am more than happy to provide tutoring services while caring for your little ones. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit to work with your family.

"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!!"
