$15 per hour for 1 child

I'm PG county born and raised but go to art school in Ohio. So I'm great with silly kids arts and crafts.I was an assistant teacher for a summer working with a hiphop non-profit Words Beats & Life. I volunteered to help a DJ teacher with kids and keep them fed with snacks.I grew up in a big family where babysitting was free as long as you got food at the end of the night. Said babysitting also included pets such as dogs and cats, as well as cleaning from time to time. I've handled a fair share of tantrums and I'm a big time-out supporter. I'm vegetarian so I know a lot of healthy recipes. As for unhealthy recipes I make a mean mac'n'cheese. Hope to hear from you soon.

Haren Washington
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there!! My name is Haren , I am 35 years old, and I obtained my Bachelor's in Criminology & Criminal Justice in 2012 from the University of Maryland, where I took several courses on Early Childhood Development. My goal is to attend law school in the future, but childcare has always been effortless for me. I have 15+ years of experience, dating as far back as the age of 13 when I took on the role of care giver to my 6-week-old nephew on weekends until he was 4 years old. Moving from Philadelphia to Maryland for undergrad, and now living in DC only led me to sharing my experience and knowledge with families in the area, while gaining much more knowledge along the way. Many families I have had the privilege of working for describe me as a baby whisperer of sorts, seeming to always be able to assess and manage even the most fussy of temperaments! I am very knowledgeable, organized, and reliable! I seek to put each family's mind at ease knowing I am around for anything; even fur babies!

"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
