Hi Families! I’m Daisia and my background in Child Development & Family Studies, paired with my hands-on experience with children of all ages-from infants to adolescents-has shaped a genuine love for what I do. I’ve worked with multiples, including twins, and truly enjoy creating a supportive, engaging environment for children to grow and thrive. It would be a pleasure to join your family and team.

Booked by 39 families in Alexandria, VA

Hello Families! My name is Sara. I have both professional and personal experience in caring for children of all ages. I am CPR and AED certified. I am trilingual with fluency in English and Amharic, and limited working proficiency in Spanish. I also have previous K-5 tutoring experience and as a college student myself, I understand the value of education. I am very active and have no problem playing with little ones for long periods of time. I am open to offering homework assistance, teaching practical skills, taking children outside or to practice, helping within the house (cooking, laundry, errands, planning, light tidying,etc) and anything else you may need in between. I also have experience in pet care (dog-walking and cat-sitting). I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and supportive. It would be my pleasure and goal to help make your daily routine easier in any way I can.

Hello! My name is Lauren and I am 28 years old. I have a full time job as a financial analyst during the day and I’m usually free after work and occasionally on weekends. I love working with kids, being around children always puts a smile to my face. I have experience in babysitting for 5 years during college and a few years after. I’ve worked with kids in various ages from infant to teenagers. I love being outdoors and taking walks outside if the weather is nice, if not I have a variety of board games and movies to enjoy indoors.

Booked by 128 families in Alexandria, VA

Hello families. My name is Anne and I'm an experienced bilingual babysitter who enjoys working with children of any age. Kids bring so much joy to the world and it creates happiness to see them grow and to nurture their creativity. I always try to adjust to children's unique needs. As a former physical therapist I'm comfortable caring for children with special needs. Favorite babysitting activities include arts and crafts, reading, being outdoors, meal prep and clean up, bath time and bed time routines. I like to cook and do not mind doing household chores. I do have a drivers license. If you think I'm a good match I would be happy to hear from you.

“Anne was great and we would highly recommend her. She cared after our 10 months old during our evening date, she was extremely punctual, professional and calm. She was also very flexible. We trusted her fully. Thank you! Edit to add after 10+ bookings with her - Anne Kathrin is definitely the most reliable and caring babysitter in the area. She’s cared after our son many evenings from age 10 months to 19 months and she’s the best from infancy to toddlerhood! ”
