$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in West Mclean, VA

Hi, my name is Sarah and I have a masters in school counseling. I have 15 years of experience working with children, teens and people with disabilities. I also love to babysit my nieces and nephews. I am a former registered behavior technician and know ABA(behavior) therapy. When I’m taking care of young kids I like to read to them, play games, complete puzzles or simply do whatever they enjoy. I also like to take them outdoors to local playgrounds or go for walks if parents permit. In my free time I enjoy live music, painting and spending time with family and friends.

Hi I’m Emily and I’m a mom of 2 children and a dog. Before I became a mom I babysat children for over 10 years. I have also been a nanny in the past and worked at a daycare for several years. I love children and animals. I have a dog and I love taking care of other people’s dogs and cats. I treat other people’s pets as my own. Same goes for children!

Margaret $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Margo. I come from a large family and have been surrounded by children my entire life. I was raised helping care for my younger sibling and cousins, and I am now a very involved aunt to 14 nieces and nephews whom I am extremely close to. Caring for children has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. I have experience babysitting infants through 10-year-olds, including children with special needs, who I have a particular heart for. I am warm, fun, personable, and highly adaptable. I do well with different family dynamics and parenting styles, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love cooking, baking, and am able to drive kids around, house or pet sit. I take my role as a caretaker seriously and truly enjoy building meaningful, trusting relationships with both children and parents.
