Booked by 46 families in Catharpin, VA

Hi! My name is Megan and I’m 29 years old. I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2019. I live in Manassas, VA. I’ve enjoyed babysitting kids of all ages since I was 13. I work full time during the week, and I’m looking to make some extra spending money on weekends and weeknights. In my free time, I like to run, cook and read. I have my own car and I’m willing to travel into DC and to nearby suburbs in MD and VA. I look forward to meeting you!

“Megan is an outstanding babysitter, she's extremely patient with our kids. we have a fussy 1 year old and she handled both of them well. I highly encourage you to hire her for your caregiving needs!”

Marah $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello Parents, I am 36yrs with 10+ years experience with children/pets. I have been working with kids since I was 14 years old and it is a huge passion of mine. I am looking forward to jumping back in for a while. I am a firm believer in routine, consistency, and creating an environment to thrive and learn. I know some American ASL, and I have a Montessori approach to the way I go about working with kids. I mainly prefer to work with infants and toddlers, but I have experience in all age ranges. I am comfortable with all traditional nanny duties, transporting children, house management/organization, elderly assistance, and pet sitting. I also have experience with special needs children including high anxiety, speech delay, autism and ADHD needs.

Booked by 3 families in Catharpin, VA

Hi! I'm Catalina, a caring, responsible, and bilingual caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of different ages, from infants and toddlers to adolescents. I have a background in Psychology and experience working with children with special needs, as well as extensive experience as a nanny and childcare provider. I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where children can feel comfortable and engaged. I love doing age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and creative activities. I’m also happy to support families with routines, homework, and bedtime when needed. I’m CPR trained, have reliable transportation, and can provide references. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and am comfortable working with both children and pets. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting in the afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends. I’m happy to help with date nights, occasional childcare, school pick-ups, or when parents simply need an extra hand.

“Catalina was an incredible caretaker for my daughter! My daughter warmed to her right away. Catalina had many ideas for crafts and activities to keep my daughter engaged for a full day - and what a fun surprise for me to see their artwork at the end of the day! Catalina is calm, friendly, and knowledgeable about children. It was a great experience!”

Booked by 10 families in Catharpin, VA

Hi there! My name is Sarah, and I’m a recent UTSA graduate with a BS in Biochemistry. I am a current medical assistant and applying to PhD programs for Fall 2026 to investigate disease mechanisms, particularly with Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity. As the oldest of five, I’ve been taking care of little ones since they were babies. Outside of family, I’ve had hands-on experience as young as 3 years old, and I’ve also provided tutoring for high school students. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, reading stories, or organizing fun activities, I create a safe, nurturing, and enjoyable environment for your child. I’m BLS/CPR certified, can cook, and I’m comfortable with household tasks. I’m well-versed in caring for animals as I have a cat of my own and occasionally watch over family friends’ pets (most being 4 dogs small and large and 1 cat), making me the perfect option for families with pets. If you’re looking for someone responsible, caring, and fun, I’d love to meet your family!

“Great! Highly recommend ”
