Find nannies in Arlington, VA

Hi! I’m Fernanda, a professional educator and experienced childcare provider with over 10 years of experience working with children of different ages, backgrounds, and learning needs. I hold a professional degree in Elementary Education and have worked as a teacher, tutor and babysitter in different countries. My experience includes children from preschool through elementary school, as well as children with special needs. My approach to childcare goes beyond supervision. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, understood, engaged, and encouraged to learn through everyday experiences. I enjoy creating age appropriate activities, reading together, arts and crafts, outdoor play, educational games, and routines that support each child’s development while still making their day fun. As a native Spanish speaker with advanced English, I can also provide a bilingual environment for families interested in exposing their children to Spanish naturally through conversation, play, reading, and daily routines. Educational Support & Personalized Tutoring: My teaching background allows me to offer more individualized educational support when families need it. Depending on your child’s age and goals, I can incorporate: * Homework assistance and personalized tutoring * Early literacy, reading, and writing activities * Elementary academic support * Spanish tutoring and bilingual learning activities * School readiness activities for younger children * Learning activities adapted to your child’s interests and needs I understand that every family has different routines, expectations, and parenting styles, so I value clear communication, reliability, consistency, and respect for the way each family chooses to raise their children. I’m also comfortable with meal preparation, children’s laundry and light tidying, transportation, errands, pet care, and maintaining organized play and learning spaces. My goal is to give parents peace of mind knowing their children are not only well cared for, but spending their time with someone who genuinely understands childhood development and education.

Hello! I'm Violeta, currently a graduate from James Madison University. I have 5+ years of experience working with children. Starting with babysitting for family friends, I've expanded to helping families in the neighborhood. I have have experience working with children of all ages. I love engaging kids with hands-on activities and getting them outside on nice days. I have been a long term nanny for 3 boys for a year now and have repeat families that I have worked with through different apps. I'm excited about the possibility of using my childcare experience to contribute positively.

I have been a nanny since I was 15 years old. I have watched all ages of children from infants to preteens. I have worked with children with special needs as well. I am also accustomed to working with more than three children. I have had jobs as a summer nanny, date night babysitter, and overnight weekend sitter. I am also a swim coach and teach swim lessons, so I have worked with children in many different settings. I also have been a certified lifeguard for the past seven years and I am accustomed to teaching children to swim and saving their lives in the water. I am allergic to mushrooms so if meal prep is involved please make sure they are not involved with it! **Note if you cancel within less than 24 hours I require 2 hours minimum cancelation fee. Thank you!**

Hello, I have worked as a nanny three times, for children ranging in age from four months to five years old. I also worked for a caregiver with a therapy organization for children with developmental disabilities back in 2[removed]. I work from 9-6 Monday through Friday, so I am available some evenings and weekends. Please just message me to check availability for a particular date! I am CPR trained, reliable, and happy to help out with light housework. I also love animals, so I always willing to help out with any household pets too. Unfortunately I do not sit for families when someone in the household is sick. (I tend to hang onto colds for weeks 🤧.)

Profile: Hi my name is Raquel, I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. My first language is Spanish and I find great pleasure introducing children language skills like Spanish, with their parents’ consent of course. I am also AA in Early Childhood Education. I’m an experienced nanny that has been working with families and their children for 24 years. I’m easy going, warm and loving, I care for children as they were my own. I have worked mostly with DC residents but also travel to Virginia from time to time. I hold a clean drivers record, CPR certificate and good references from people that I have worked over the years. I believe I am a good Nanny because, I focus on getting to know the child’s temperament and establish a loving and respectful bond that is naturally mutual between the children and me. I provide opportunities for children to grow and learn in a save environment setting. I help children develop their identity and self-confidence. Through-out the day we also visit many local playgrounds, libraries, play groups and community activities. Also, for indoor activities, I engage children with books, art, music, self-caring and biological development as feeding, sleeping and diaper change. I only expose children to TV if it’s part of the parents’ routine otherwise, TV is not a necessity during my time with them. In addition of caring and providing learning opportunities for children, as part of my responsibility, I keep the play area and the kitchen neat, clean the child’s laundry and keep their room clean. I would be happy to continue to converse about my work experience and my character if you requested.
