Hi! My name is Julia and I am 26 and live in Georgetown! I currently work remote in consulting in DC and I am looking for babysitting gigs on the weekends and after work starting around 6pm on weekdays. I am originally from Maryland and I have been consistently babysitting/nannying for a family with three children since I was about 13 years old. In Richmond when I attended the University of Richmond, I babysat a family with two young boys throughout the school year, I took them to school each morning and picked them up every afternoon. In Maryland, I also use a similar app called Napp where I have helped a number of families with childcare. I have plenty of experience with children of all ages, I have taken care of a newborn at the age of 4 weeks and up to kids in their teens! I am responsible, extremely organized, and just absolutely love kids! I would love to help families out in the DC-area!

Gabriela 2 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child

Nurturing young minds is my passion! With 5 years of experience caring for children aged newborn to six, I bring a patient, creative, and friendly approach to childcare. My previous babysitting and nannying roles solidified my desire to positively impact children's lives, and l am eager to foster their growth and development. I love to do arts and crafts, sing songs, read books, teach cooking skills, and go on walks to the playground, and library. I have experience with baby lead weaning, potty training, supporting physical therapy, and baby development. I have a high school diploma and speak both English and Spanish. I can provide regular updates via text or phone call and always follow your preferred communication methods. I also follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules. I am also willing to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and am comfortable with pets.

Gaby is incredible! She has babysat for my 3 boys for the past six years. She is reliable, trustworthy, and so amazing with kids. My boys light up when she gets to our house. She is intuitive and patient with babies and toddlers and imaginative and fun with older kids. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!

Booked by 1 family in District Heights, MD

Hi! My name is Rokhaya. Caring for children has always been a big part of my life, not just as a job, but as family. As the firstborn of five younger siblings, I’ve been actively caring for infants and children since I was 13. Being the oldest taught me responsibility, patience, and how to nurture children with love and consistency. Professionally, I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and have experience with a wide range of ages (including twins), from five-month-old infants to toddlers, preschoolers, and older children up to 10 years old. I’m comfortable adjusting to each child’s needs, routines, and personality, whether that means bottle-feeding, playtime, helping with homework, or simply creating a calm and safe environment. I’m known for being very warm, gentle, and attentive. I genuinely love children, and that shows in the way I care for them. I enjoy creating positive, joyful spaces through music, outdoor time, and creative activities. I also love nature, which often inspires calm play and meaningful connection with kids. I’m bilingual and speak both English and French fluently, which can be a great asset for families looking to expose their children to another language. Overall, I take pride in being reliable, nurturing, and present, and I treat every child I care for as if they were my own.

"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)."
