Find a last-minute babysitter in Merrifield, VA

Hi! I’ve worked with over 40 families, including several long-term (over a year with some). I provide reliable, nurturing childcare and can assist with meal prep and light housekeeping when combined with child care (for an additional fee). I’m CPR/First Aid certified and happy to help with homework support. I’m currently looking for a long-term, part-time position with a great family. Previously, I lived in Colombia for 2 years, where I taught kindergarten through 2nd grade, and also led extracurricular classes for middle school students. Was teaching English for kids in some villages in Bali. I also worked as a personal assistant, so I’m comfortable adapting to different routines and family dynamics. I speak English, Indonesian, and Spanish, and I love animals so dogs and cats are always welcome. In my free time, I’m very active and love trying new sports , currently doing horseback riding and crossfit and I’ve also enjoyed archery, bouldering, and other adventurous activities.

Hi! My name is Carmen and I am a junior at Georgetown University studying business! I have been babysitting my moms friends kids since I was little and have always loved working with kids. I have experience volunteering at an orphanage where I visit once a week and work mostly with babies 0-3 years old. I also work part time at Georgetown with a family of 2 kids (3 months and 2 years old!) and a family with a 5 month-old girl. I have experience feeding, bathing, and keeping kids entertained! I like working with kids because through babysitting I get to relive my childhood through the eyes of the kids I care for. There is so much to learn from children and I love to teach them the alphabet, colors, animals while I learn from them. I also speak Spanish, so also love to teach little ones Spanish if it is okay with the parents! In my spare time, I like to journal, go on walks, try new coffee shops, and spend time with friends and family. My skills include bedtime routine, cooking, and tutoring. I am open to working with families with pets!

Hello Families! My name is Sara. I have both professional and personal experience in caring for children of all ages. I am CPR and AED certified. I am trilingual with fluency in English and Amharic, and limited working proficiency in Spanish. I also have previous K-5 tutoring experience and as a college student myself, I understand the value of education. I am very active and have no problem playing with little ones for long periods of time. I am open to offering homework assistance, teaching practical skills, taking children outside or to practice, helping within the house (cooking, laundry, errands, planning, light tidying,etc) and anything else you may need in between. I also have experience in pet care (dog-walking and cat-sitting). I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and supportive. It would be my pleasure and goal to help make your daily routine easier in any way I can.

Hi! My name is Leevel, and I’m so excited to support families in my community. I’m originally from Denver, Colorado, and I’m currently a college student at The George Washington University, where I’m studying Political Science. I have several years of experience working with children in different settings. In 2024, I served as a Girls on the Run coach, mentoring elementary and middle school girls and creating a positive, confidence-building environment. This past summer, I worked at a summer camp, leading activities, supervising groups, and ensuring every child felt safe and engaged. Right now, I’m a tutor at an elementary school during the weekdays, working closely with students and adapting to different personalities, learning styles, and needs. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. I’d love to be a reliable and supportive part of your family’s routine!
