Hi, my name is Christina and I am a retired Army officer and now a Fairfax County Public Schools Substitute Teacher. I have raised two children and have a masters degree education (thesis still outstanding) in organizational leadership with an undergrad in psychology. I have used Urban Sitter before and took a break in 2019 for some family time. I have no cancellation rating because I babysit outside the app for preferred families from time to time and help my friend who is a teacher. I come from a long line of teachers. I am from a large family. I have 6 sisters and 1 brother, all dog/cat lovers! Hope to see you soon.
“Christina is extremely caring, welcoming, helpful, and friendly. Our kids completely adored her, and we will definitely be using her services again.”
Hello, my name is Tazlyn I’m a freshman at Nova studying nursing . I’ve been taking care of my siblings ever since I was 12 so I do have a bit of experience with all different age groups. Im a patient, kind, and responsible caregiver looking to assist families with babysitting, pet care, and house cleaning. I pride myself on creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment where children feel cared for. In addition to child care, I am happy to help keep your home clean and organized, as well as care for your pets so your entire household runs smoothly while you are away.
Hey, my name is Precious. I’m a caring, loving, attentive, and compassionate person. I love making sure that everyone around me feels safe and heard. I have a caregiver certification and a BLS certification. Over the years, I’ve cared for nephews, nieces, and children of friends. I’ve also volunteered as a teacher’s aide while in college for Grade One students. At this time, I’m hoping to give back to my community by caring for those who need it.
Mature and trustworthy babysitter. CPR and First Aid certified, consistently received positive feedback from parents. I have enjoyed working with newborns up 10 years old. I'm looking for a new family to support in caring for their children. I'm a mother of 2 amazing teenagers they are 18 and 24. I garden during my time off, seeing the blooms is very rewarding. This is a reference from Mrs. Stacei bass Marisol has provided care on a regular basis for my 15 month son since he was 8 weeks old. She's incredibly caring and helpful. Marisol spends a lot of time outside with him and keeps his active when indoors. She does not use her phone other than pictures while watching him and is always responsive to my check-in text messages.
“On time, engaging and very attentive with our three busy boys. ”
I have been caring for children including my own even before Care & Sitter came around. I cared and sat for many children starting from 3 months to 10 year olds. I take my services very seriously and I care for children with professionalism. If you are looking for someone who has a lot of patience and dedication looking after your loved ones please know that they will be in the right hands
“I hired Yulissa to take care of my 23 month old daughter and they got along great! Yulissa was the first babysitter my daughter ever stayed with, so I was a bit nervous. However, my daughter took to her right away. Yulissa was punctual, responsible, patient, and caring. It seemed like my daughter had a lot of fun with Yulissa. She was comfortable with being around our dog as well, which was great. I would definitely hire her again for future babysitting needs and highly recommend her to others as well! ”
