Kate $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Kate! I have lived in Capitol Hill for the past four years, but I'm originally from St. Louis, Missouri. I am offering child care, household services and can help with any pets. I love being a babysitter and have a lot of experience watching toddlers and kids from a young age, including my cousin, who was born when I was 13! I babysat him multiple times a week until I left for college (and after), as well as other kids in my neighborhood. My older sister and mom are both elementary school teachers (kindergarten and 1st grade!), so I also have a lot of fun experience helping out in their classrooms! I grew up with a dog and currently have 2 cats, so happy to also help out with pets where needed.

Vanessa $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a 48 year old married individual who recently relocated to DC with my husband and dog! I am a patient advocate and speaker and I’m currently going back to school to get another degree — MPH in healthcare leadership. I love kids and have been around children of all ages my whole life. My husband have been like second parents to our godkids since before they were born. Because we were unable to have kids we have become the go to sitters for many friends and family members. As for the aging population — I am comfortable with them as well. My mom is 81 years old and I have travelled all over the world with her and help her in a variety of ways. I am also a great cook and a trained opera singer — fun facts! You can learn more about me at[removed] I am looking for some local jobs to help while I am working on my latest degree!

Nancy $19 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Kettering, MD

Hello, I am Nancy. I am currently student at montgomery college. I’ve always loved being around kids—it’s something that comes naturally to me. With many nephews and nieces, I’ve spent years helping take care of them, and it’s given me so much joy and experience. Whether it’s playing games, telling stories, or just making them laugh, I love creating a space where kids feel happy and cared for. What I enjoy most is how unique every child is. They each have their own personality, and it’s so rewarding to connect with them and see them grow. Taking care of kids has taught me to be patient, creative, and understanding, which are qualities I bring to every family I work with. For me, childcare isn’t just a responsibility—it’s something I’m passionate about and genuinely enjoy doing.
