Find a last-minute babysitter in Dunn Loring, VA

Hi! My name is Raya, and I recently moved from Beirut, Lebanon, to Washington, DC, to pursue my undergraduate studies at Georgetown University, where I’m a first-year student. Growing up in a big family, I’ve had extensive experience babysitting children of all ages. I can also prepare healthy meals for your kids since I worked at a “healthy living” restaurant for 2 summers! I am trilingual, speaking English, French, and Arabic fluently, which allows me to communicate with a diverse range of families. I’m also in training to become an EMT, learning to respond to emergency medical situations such as choking, allergic reactions, and more, so safety is always a priority for me. I would love to bring my energy, responsibility, and care to your family!

Hi! I’m an Atlanta native with lots of experience caring for kids and pets. I’ve babysat for teachers, my nephew, and other families, and I recently worked as a teaching fellow for middle school students. I love getting to know kids, helping them learn, and keeping them engaged. I’ve also worked as a summer camp counselor for multiple summers, including travel-based programs, which strengthened my ability to adapt to new environments and manage group dynamics. In addition, I’ve served as a peer mentor for three years, supporting younger students through guidance and encouragement. These experiences have deepened my understanding of children’s needs and how to support them with patience, structure, and attentiveness. I’m patient, observant, and good at matching kids energy, whether they’re super active or a little shy. I also volunteered at a Dementia Care Center, where I used art to connect with older adults, so creativity is a big part of who I am. My cultural awareness is another aspect of my personality. I enjoy arts and crafts, staying active, and practicing my Spanish (I’m an intermediate speaker). I also grew up with a Pomeranian-Papillon mix for over 10 years, so I’m totally comfortable around friendly pets! Finally, I am more than willing run errands, though I don't have a car, do light cleaning, light cooking, and light laundry.

Hello families! My name is Claire Guthrie. I am currently living in Idaho, but will be moving to D.C. in June for school. I am going to school for early childhood development, I will be doing classes online and will be attending part time. I am looking for an amazing family to work for as a nanny. I have about 1 1/2 years of experience at a daycare. I worked mostly with toddlers and infants but got a ton of experience with school age children as well. I currently work as a nanny for 18 month old twin boys. I’ve been working with them for 14 months, and enjoyed every moment of it. It breaks my heart to leave, but I need to further my career and get an education. I need to work full time to keep up with living expenses and ask for at least $25 an hour considering I am living by myself, and going to school as well. I am also open to date nights and other babysitting jobs as well! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! Thanks, Claire

Hi, My name is Madeline and I am a new dog mom to a Toy Poodle. I have enjoyed the experience of raising a puppy and my love for dogs has grown. I have the luxury of working from home so I am happy to help walk any pets near me.

I have hands-on experience caring for children, pets, and the elderly, and I understand the responsibility these roles require. I create safe, nurturing, and fun environments for kids while supporting their routines and needs. I am experienced in pet care, including feeding, walking, and daily attention, and I provide compassionate support to elderly individuals, assisting with daily activities and companionship. I also help with household services, including cleaning, organizing, and meal preparation. My background includes working as a teacher’s assistant, interning at a middle school, and serving as a caregiver for more than a year. I currently care for my brother’s dog when he’s away. These experiences have strengthened my reliability, patience, and commitment to providing attentive, responsible care.
