Kendall $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Kendall! I’m a 21-year-old living in DC and currently working as a busser. I’m looking for part-time work doing something I enjoy, and I’d love the opportunity to help care for your child. In my free time, I enjoy reading, writing, and drawing, and I love sharing those interests with children by creating fun, engaging, and imaginative activities. I grew up with pets and have even volunteered at animal shelters to stay connected with animals since I don’t currently have any of my own. I’m comfortable with cats, dogs of any size, rabbits, hamsters, birds, reptiles, you name it! If you’re looking for reliable and consistent care, I’d love to connect!

Hannah Rose $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m an upbeat, positive, energetic person who loves working with kids. I’m super creative and love arts and crafts projects. I’ve been a summer camp counselor and “fun director” for 10–12-year-olds for five years with an organization called Table of Hope and I currently study Political Science and Spanish at Howard University. I also tutor in writing and Spanish, so I’m happy to help with homework! I can cook, clean, drive, and am flexible to adapt to your household needs! Feel free to reach out with any questions, I understand a short bio description may not always address all of your needs/questions- so again do not hesitate to ask me anything. I’m always happy to chat! Can’t wait to hear from you!!

Judy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Judy. I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of various ages. I am CPR certified and have completed college-level coursework in child development. I also spent two years as a teacher's assistant at a Montessori school, where I supported children's learning through hands-on activities and individualized attention in a nurturing environment. In my caregiving role, I incorporate early learning into daily routines to help prepare children for school. Using Montessori-inspired methods, I encourage independence, confidence, and curiosity through age-appropriate lessons in language, math, practical life skills, and sensory play. I regularly introduce books, educational materials, and creative activities based on each child's developmental stage and interests. I also value outdoor time and social engagement, often planning outings to playgrounds, libraries, music classes, and museums (weather permitting). I believe in creating a calm, stimulating, and safe space that supports both learning and joy. I bring a strong work ethic, flexibility, and a collaborative approach to every family I work with. I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping, including dishes, family laundry, and keeping shared spaces tidy.

Anissa $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Anissa! I’m from Bowie, Maryland, and I’m a recent graduate of Hampton University. While I’m new to babysitting independently, I’ve grown up around childcare my entire life. My mother has owned a daycare business since before I was born, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages and needs. Outside of childcare, I love arts and crafts, singing, dancing, and spending time outdoors. I also enjoy giving back to my community where I volunteer with the youth ministry at my church and support my high school’s track team, which I proudly ran with before heading off to college! I’m excited to connect with families, get to know you and your little ones, and create a safe, fun, and creative environment for them to grow!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
