Hi! My name is Megan I have several years of babysitting experience with children of all ages. I graduated from Tulane in 2015 and have lived in the DC area ever since. I have a full time job at a nonprofit so can usually only babysit in the evenings and on weekends. I’m happy to help with any cooking and cleaning if needed! I also have a car so can drive to suburbs outside of D.C. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Megan was wonderful! She accepted the job last minute and jumped right in with my three kids. The next day they all agreed she was “so nice” and asked if she could come back again!

Hyattsville
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hello families, I’m currently looking for a part-time babysitting position for a few hours in the afternoon, a few days a week. I have over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I’m also a mother of two school-aged children myself, which has deepened my understanding of children’s needs, routines, and development. Here are a few things I bring to the role: • Extensive experience with multiple children and families over the years • CPR/First Aid knowledge (optional – let me know if you’re certified and want to add that) • Safe and reliable transportation – I have a clean driving record and my own car • Flexible, dependable, and punctual • Basic Spanish speaker – comfortable communicating and supporting bilingual children • Organized and proactive – I can help with after-school routines, homework, snack prep, and light tidying • Loving, calm, and attentive approach to every child I care for I pride myself on creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for kids, while also respecting the routines and values of each family. Please feel free to reach out if you’re looking for a trustworthy and experienced babysitter for your family!

Both our boys,9 and 3, had so much fun with Michaela. She played games with them, puzzles, read books, took them outside for a walk and prepared food for them. She communicated great with us the entire time - she also sent us several pictures of our boys playing together to keep us updated. She’s very engaging, communicative and friendly. Our boys absolutely love her (they were super excited to play with her again). We felt she became a very important part of our family. We miss her!
