Find infant babysitters in Merrifield, VA

As a high school teacher, lacrosse coach, loving Aunt, and dog owner, I bring years of experience working closely with children and teens in both educational and athletic settings. I'm passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment for kids of all ages. My background has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and a deep understanding of child development and behavior. I have my B.S. in Biobehavioral health from Penn State University. I currently teach Health and Nutrition at St John’s College High school, and I’ve also worked at several different universities including Boston University and Georgetown University. According to feedback I’ve received from supervisors, I create a safe and welcoming environment and successfully keep children engaged and interested in class. I’ve coached all levels of lacrosse including youth, high school, and college. I also have experience being a live-in caregiver for my grandmother. I’m comfortable with light household tasks and pet care. Families can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and caring.

I have over 2.5 years of hands-on childcare experience as an au pair, caring for two children from infancy (4 months old) through their toddler years. My responsibilities included feeding, diaper changes, nap routines, age-appropriate educational activities, meal preparation, and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. In addition, I volunteer regularly with the Pre-K ministry at my local church, where I help supervise and engage a group of up to 10 children ages 4–6. I lead crafts, read stories, organize interactive activities, and help create a fun, safe, and welcoming environment for the children. I am a responsible, patient, and caring caregiver who enjoys supporting children’s development through play, learning, and positive relationships. As a bilingual English and Spanish speaker, I can also provide language exposure for families who value a multicultural environment.

Hi, my name is Jea! I’m a childcare provider based in Arlington, VA, currently pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have extensive experience working with children through teaching, camp counseling, and my current role as an RBT supporting children and young adults across a wide range of ages and needs. I provide childcare for infants through teens (0–17) and focus on creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged. I enjoy a mix of educational and fun activities such as reading, creative play, outdoor time, crafts, and helping with homework and daily routines. In addition to childcare, I’m comfortable with light household support related to childcare needs, such as meal/snack prep, tidying, and organization. I also have some experience with pet care, particularly dogs, and am comfortable assisting with basic care needs. I’m dependable, communicative, and flexible with scheduling, including daytime care, evenings, and occasional last-minute support when available. My goal is to provide families with consistent, high-quality care they can trust!
