Usha Reston
$25 per hour for 1 child

I’m Usha! I’m reliable, caring, and love working with kids. I enjoy planning fun activities, helping with routines, and making sure children feel safe and supported. Families can count on me to be on time, dependable, and attentive. A little about me, I live in the Reston community, love being active, and also have a sweet dog named Theo, so I’m very comfortable around pets. I’d love the chance to bring positive energy to your family and make life a little easier while giving your kids a fun and safe experience.

Valeria Herndon
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi. My name is Valeria, I'm 26 years old, I speak Spanish. I’m a responsible, affectionate, and patient person. I enjoy playing with children and supporting them in their daily activities. I always try to share joy and create a calm, positive environment for the children and people around me. I also love animals, so I feel comfortable taking care of both children and pets when needed. My English level is basic/intermediate but I'm still learning. I don't have my own car but I do have a driver's license. I currently work in a bakery as a decorator, which allows me to be creative and enjoy making different things.

Flaminia Falls Church
$25 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced, energetic and responsible young adult woman. I love kids and have experience both in house babysitting 2 young girls over 5 years, as well as working in a performance training facility with the youth group of ages 3-15 years old. I have loved teaching young girls and boys to move their bodies safely & efficiently and know how to keep them busy. I’ve worked with both disabled, hyperactive, and the overly shy kids. I believe my experience leading large groups (10+ kids) of youth can make me a unique babysitter. Currently, I am a full time personal trainer based in DC and a holistic nutrition & health coach for my own wellness brand.. and I just miss working with kids!! Looking for a part time/ occasional gig to fill in my free time and flexible schedule (I’m also new to the area, so happy to see different neighborhoods and meet nice families!)
