Booked by 1 family in Broad Run, VA

Hi families!! My name is Arantxa but i go by Ara and I’m 23 years old from Peru. About me I enjoy arts and crafts, go on walks, have picnics, read books, swimming, playing board games, throw the frisbee; etc, I also really like cooking different foods from my country and baking desserts (those are my favorite to cook). I consider myself an easy going person, patient, responsible, organized, hardworking, loving, kind and I can have a strong character when needed (without being aggressive) I have experience taking care of kids from the ages of 2-16, I was an au pair from 2023 to the beginning of this year and before that I used to babysit neighbors and family members since the age of 16. I am fully vaccinated and non smoker, I drive every day of the week so i’m comfortable with that. During my time as an au pair i also helped families with their pets such as taking them on walks or feeding them when needed.

Hi there! I recently moved to the area from New York and am excited to get connected with families in the community. I work full-time but am looking to take on extra work doing something I truly enjoy, caring for kids and pets! I have over 5+ years of experience with babysitting, house sitting, and pet sitting. I began babysitting when I was around 16 and have since worked with children ages 1–10. I also have years of experience working in my church nursery, which gave me the opportunity to care for little ones. In addition to childcare, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and energy levels. I’m a high-energy, people-loving person who genuinely enjoys keeping families’ homes and pets happy and cared for. I’m looking forward to helping out local families and becoming part of this wonderful community!

Booked by 45 families in Broad Run, VA

Hi! My name is Megan and I’m 28 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 was great with 4 children (6,4,3 & 2) to allow another couple and my husband & I to go out the evening/night of Valentine’s Day. We had a wonderful time and Megan made that possible. She was responsive, kind and funny and my daughter who was crying moments before we left (about us leaving) seemed to forget her sadness within 5 minutes of Megan showing up. She even got all 4 toddlers down successfully and they were sound asleep when we got home, miraculous! We’d love to have her watch our children again.
