Hello! I’ve been providing childcare for a range of ages in the District for over 15 years. I am a social worker, artist, and love to be outside. I am high energy and find hanging out with children and entertaining them to be so much fun! I am very comfortable with animals as well, I love dogs! Currently I have some families I provide dog sitting for in their homes when they go on trips. I volunteer at an animal sanctuary farms and rescue shelters, comfortable with all types of animals. I use this app to connect with families to build good working relationships, and many families I currently work with have worked with me for many years. Unfortunately I cannot offer full time child care, but I am a great option for date nights or weekends.

I love kids and wish I had more time to spend with them. I have extensive babysitting experience which includes substituting at Head Start (pre-K), regularly watching older toddlers (4-5 yrs.), and most recently taking care of a one-year-old. When babysitting I like playtime and educational and fun activities. I often would bake and do arts and crafts with the older toddlers. I try to limit screen time as much as possible. With the one-year-old I would do activities to promote development and make the little guy laugh! I look forward to hearing from you.

Temeka’s attention to details and love for kids makes her a dependable and repeatable hire for busy families! Thank you!

Hi, my name is Aina and I am a rising third year at George Washington University. I am currently based in Atlanta for the summer and am looking for occasional babysitting opportunities with children ranging from 2-12 years old. When it comes to child care I have been babysitting for two years in the Atlanta and D.C. area. In addition, I have one full year's worth of experience being an after school teacher for kindergartners and first graders at East Valley Elementary school in Marietta, Georgia. At that job, myself along with a co teacher were responsible for upwards of 20 students each day and in a school environment, that was quite manageable, and I know it'd be an even more enjoyable experience if I had more attention to give to fewer children. I also have college experience part time babysitting with multiple families, three of them who I worked with on a consistent basis. I have lots of energy to give when it comes to caring for children and I can find creative ways to keep them engaged and entertained. Working with children is rewarding for me because I remember how much the adults, beyond my parents helped create wonderful memories during my childhood. I hope to provide that same positive impact for others. I used to own a dog for many years and I am comfortable babysitting in pet households so I also have experience with pet care.
