Claire $25 per hour for 1 child
Hello families! My name is Claire Guthrie. I am currently living in Idaho, but will be moving to D.C. in June for school. I am going to school for early childhood development, I will be doing classes online and will be attending part time. I am looking for an amazing family to work for as a nanny. I have about 1 1/2 years of experience at a daycare. I worked mostly with toddlers and infants but got a ton of experience with school age children as well. I currently work as a nanny for 18 month old twin boys. I’ve been working with them for 14 months, and enjoyed every moment of it. It breaks my heart to leave, but I need to further my career and get an education. I need to work full time to keep up with living expenses and ask for at least $25 an hour considering I am living by myself, and going to school as well. I am also open to date nights and other babysitting jobs as well! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! Thanks, Claire
Marie $19 per hour for 1 child
Hi future families! I am a caring, extremely organized, patient, and responsible person who loves being around children and animals. I have experience babysitting my nephew, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to keep little ones happy and entertained. I’m nurturing, dependable, and easygoing. I also have a dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable around pets! I’d love to make your family feel comfortable knowing your little ones are in safe, caring hands. 😊
Brianna $20 per hour for 1 child
I’m a caring, patient, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys being around children. I’m a Certified medical assistant and CPR certified. I have experience working in childcare, completed coursework in Early Childhood Education, and grew up helping care for my younger siblings. I love creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for kids, and I’m also a big animal lover!
Haley $25 per hour for 1 child
I am a teacher with high school and middle school experience. I also work with 5-12 year olds as a summer camp counselor, and have worked in the past at a camp for individuals of all ages with disabilities. I am calm and very adaptable, and am excited to help out!
Vince $19 per hour for 1 child
Hey! My name is Vince, I am 19 years old and I am currently in flight school and pursuing a degree in Social Work as well. I am originally from Prescott, Arizona and I moved out to Washington for school. I love to cook and I have a passion for working on cars. I have been babysitting for about 2 years, and I have volunteered at several youth summer camps. I have a dog and a cat at home so pet care is nothing new to me! I am always open to helping out, whether it be hands-on jobs around the house, or running errands!
