Booked by 2 families in Arcola, VA

Hi! My name is Summer, and I'm a dedicated professional nanny with over 10+ years of experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I'm also a proud mom to a 15-year-old daughter and a 5-year-old son. When my son was in preschool , I also worked as a substitute one day a week, further deepening my passion for early childhood education. I'm currently seeking a loving family to grow with-one where I can build a lasting, trusting relationship and contribute to a nurturing, enriching environment for their children. I offer much more than childcare: I support families by handling meal prep, children's laundry, light housekeeping, pick-ups and drop-offs, and any day-to-day kid-related tasks. I especially enjoy planning fun adventures and outings that keep little ones engaged, active, and happy.

“Summer has been a wonderful sitter for our family over the years as we’ve expanded from one child to three. She’s always punctual, responsible, and fun during her time with them. She’s been a great resource to us for occasional, recurring, and overnight care. Thanks Summer! ”

Hi everyone, I’m a doctor studying for my board exams right now. I’m also an auntie of three girls ages 4 months, 3 years, and 8 years old. I have lots of experience babysitting for infants, toddlers, and children even for other families. I also have had pediatric patients, I have a broad scope of experience in this field. Im also child and adult CPR certified. I can provide references as well! I’m open to weekdays, weekends, holidays, short term, and long term positions, if I am not booked already! I can take long term positions for up to a year or more and my mom, a previous certified nurse aide and preschool teacher for FCPS, can take over after me once I pass my board exams and see more patients. She’s a nanny on this app as well! I look forward to connecting with you!

“Suha was absolutely lovely! She has such a sweet, gentle, and calming personality. She was attentive, listened carefully, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood everything. Her communication was wonderful, and I was so grateful that she was willing to help our family on such short notice. She made the whole experience easy and stress-free. We really appreciated her help and would happily welcome her back to babysit again. Thank you, Suha!”

I have 58 years old. I speak Spanish and I speak intermedium English. I love children, l love to read books to the children. Specialize in creating fun and stimulating learning activities and implementing effective daily routine. I'm planning to get certified in CPR soon. I like to always keep my clients inform about how their kid are doing during the day. I'd describe my personality as patience , good sense of humor and show compassion . I like working with kids because I find being around children to be uplifting and energizing. I love to explore their creativity and curiosity as they see the world different. I'm looking for a job that I can fulfill somebody's needs. I started working with kids when I was very young , first helping my family and then other kids In my spare time, I like to go out with my family and travel One thing you should know about me is that I'm very proactive and I love to cook Peruvian food. Problem solving Communication skills Creativity

“Lucía Is the best , she has a lot of patience and what i love the most is how much she loves my girls. She prepares amazing food and also love my dog. I would recommend her 100%”

Hello there! My name is Summer. I am currently a senior at George Mason University. I am offering child care services for all age groups from infant to school-age. I am pet friendly! I've worked with kids for over 6 years. I took an early childhood program when I was attending high school and I have been in love ever since! After I graduated I worked at various private day schools. I have worked with infants to school-age children. I also have a 4-year-old sister at home who I'm always looking after. I love working with kids. It brings me so much joy to help give them the skills they need to succeed academically and socially!

"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."

"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)."
