Find infant babysitters in Merrifield, VA

Hi, my name is Jennifer Vo and I graduated from the University of Virginia in May 2025 and I am working a full-time job. I am free after 6pm in the Tysons-Alexandria area and offering childcare services. I absolutely love working with kids! I know they can be a handful sometimes, but with the right patience, they're absolutely a joy. I have babysat for over 5 years and I've worked with kids of all ranges, including infants, toddlers, and kids. My responsibilities have been driving them to and from places, making them dinner, bathing them, and putting them to sleep, and taking care of them up to 9 hours.

I have been caring for children for over 8 years now! I moved to DC from Texas where I babysat, led a middle school girls youth group and volunteered in the children’s ministry of a local nonprofit. I enjoy working with kids because their curiosity and energy keeps me on my toes and reminds me to look for the wonder in life! I value building relationships with every child I babysit and learning about their interests. I will read books, bake, facilitate outdoor games or step back and supervise if your kiddos prefer independent play! I am also happy to take on dishes, laundry, and other house work. I have worked with children ranging from newborns through middle school, and am comfortable with any age. I can also handle multiple at a time; a favorite group of friends I babysat for had 4 kids under 6 with an 8-month old — we had so much fun together! Fun facts: My favorite books from my childhood were Little House on the Prairie and Series of Unfortunate Events, and my favorite board game was Monopoly. Some nitty-gritty: I am vaccinated for COVID & other routine illnesses and I have been background checked through Urban Sitter. I love pets but do not to work in homes with pit bulls.

My name is Eliene Ralda. I’ve been in the US for over 20 years. Currently happily married with 2 kids (girl, 21 & boy, 18). I have plenty of experience with babysitting and I am also trilingual (English, Portuguese, and Spanish). I have always enjoyed spending time with kids, I have my own car and I can prepare meals. I’m CPR/first aid certified.

I have over a year of experience working in a school setting, primarily with K3 and K5 age groups, where I supported young children in their daily routines, learning activities, and social development. Working in the classroom has helped me build strong skills in patience, communication, and creating a structured yet fun environment for kids. In addition to my school experience, I have also babysat on the side, giving me one-on-one experience caring for children and managing responsibilities. I enjoy planning engaging activities such as walks around the park, playing games in the backyard, arts and crafts, reading storybooks, outdoor scavenger hunts, and creative play that keeps children active and entertained. My background has helped me become dependable, attentive, and confident in providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, grow, and feel comfortable.

I have years of experience with childcare and pet care. I have babysat for kids and animals for nearly 5 years. I am also available for overnights and weekends.
