Erica $25 per hour for 1 child

have been working in childcare since 2022 and have gained valuable experience caring for children as young as three months up to three years old. In addition, I teach Sunday school for children ages four and up, which has strengthened my skills in guiding older children, leading group activities, and teaching with patience and creativity. I create a nurturing and safe environment where children feel loved and supported, while also encouraging their growth and independence. I am caring, observant, and reliable, and I enjoy bringing creativity and play into daily routines to make learning fun and engaging. Families can trust me to communicate openly and build strong relationships while supporting children’s development and helping them feel secure, confident, and happy.

Nurhayat 1 review
$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Dunn Loring, VA

Hello, this is Nurhayat. I live in Arlington, VA. I am a patient, positive, and bilingual 28-year-old with 10+ years of childcare experience. I have an International Relations degree from my home country, Türkiye, and I have been working with children since high school. I am currently studying Business Administration at Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA), and I am planning to transfer to George Mason University next year to continue my education. I am currently taking care of three adorable children, ages 2, 5, and 6.5. Due to their grandmother moving in with them, I am looking for a new opportunity. I am a planner and a multitasker, and it brings me a lot of joy to be around children and support them as they learn, grow, explore, and enjoy every moment. I believe one of the most important parts of childcare is providing a safe and stable environment while keeping things fun, engaging, and making sure children feel heard and cared for. I am also willing to help with additional tasks. I have references that I would be happy to provide. I have a valid work permit and my own car. I would love the opportunity to connect and see if I could be a good fit for your family. Thank you!

she was great with my 7-year-old son. She was really helpful in assisting him with his homework and made a positive difference in his learning

Hi Parents! My name is Victoria. I am born and raised in New York. Now, I live in Burke, Virginia. I am willing to love, teach and care for your children. I enjoy to let children be creative and use me as a tool for their own imagination. I enjoy children having fun while adventurous. Safety is my number one priority when caring for children. I have years of experience making/preparing delicious meals, running household errands, taking kids out on adventures, light housekeeping, diaper changing, scheduling bottle-feeding/small-solid foods, bathing, nap-time, potty training, etc. Before COVID-19, I worked at Ballet Hispánico located in Manhattan, NY teaching young children how to dance, to children ages 3-17 years old. I have 3 years of full-time and part-time experience being a nanny and babysitter. * 3-4-year-old twins * 6-22-month-old babies There is much more to say about me; if interested, please feel free to reach out so that you can get to know me even more. fully vaccinated, including a booster shot. Willing to send references!

After another sitter cancelled for a family emergency, Victoria came through for us in a big way with only about 36 hours of notice and saved our date night! She was kind with our toddler, despite his separation anxiety. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat.

BERNICE 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

I am married since 32 years with 2 beautiful children and 2 sweet rescue dogs. My husband was in the Army for 30 years where I maintained myself as a piano teacher moving every 1 - 3 years. I truly love kids and dogs very much . I babysit multiple kids and special needs kids since 8 years on care.com with fun and compassion by mixing reading, music, outdoor activities, German games, German songs, crafts and any activities the child likes and the parents approve. Babies giggle about my funny expressions and sounds. I am willing to drive up to 30 miles for date nights. Thank you !

Bernice is an absolute delight! My 3 and 7 year old boys loved her and felt comfortable right away (which is not always the case). She is on time, responds fast to my texts, and my kids always seem to enjoy their time with her. She goes out of her way to play with my boys and keep them entertained. It feels nice to be able to relax and not worry about them, knowing they are in good hands. Thank you for all your help! I’ll be reaching back out again soon.

"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."

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)."
