Find nannies in Arlington, VA

I’m new to UrbanSitter, but I bring extensive hands-on childcare experience with children from infancy through age 12 and genuinely enjoy supporting kids at every developmental stage. My most recent babysitting role involved caring for two preschool-aged children (ages 4 and 5), where I regularly handled school drop-offs and pickups, prepared meals and snacks, supervised outdoor play, and helped maintain a fun but structured daily routine for 6 months. I am currently a psychology student at University of Maryland, College Park with research experience in child development and attachment, which has given me a deeper understanding of children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs. This background helps me connect with children in a patient, attentive, and developmentally supportive way. I love creating engaging experiences for kids through play, outdoor activities, sports, reading, and creative activities, while also being a dependable and caring presence families can trust. Although I’m new to this platform, I’m excited to build meaningful relationships with families and provide reliable, high-quality care.

Hi, my name is Melissa. I’m a caring, positive, responsible, and highly reliable person with over 20 years of babysitting experience and 10 years as a teacher and tutor.
