Booked by 7 families in Falls Church, VA

Hi, I’m Tatia! I recently graduated from college and am back home in DC. I have 8 years of professional experience working with children in a variety of capacities, including as a teacher’s aide in school settings, babysitting and caretaking in the home, and serving as an educator and social worker for children through organizational work. Aside from my professional experience, I’m also an older sister to two lovely younger siblings who I’ve cared for over the years, and that’s truly where my passion for working with children began. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with children ages 1–15. I’m very patient, adaptable, and always looking for fun and engaging ways to interact with children. My teaching experience has prepared me to respond thoughtfully to conflicts, support children’s individual needs, and always prioritize safety and care. My culinary experience and passion for cooking also mean I’m more than happy to prepare meals and snacks that are both nutritious and enjoyable for children. As a DC resident, I’m very familiar with the area and love the idea of extending care beyond the home by exploring the many family-friendly events, activities, and sights around the city. I’m very flexible, dependable, and open to any questions. I hope to work with your family soon :)

Booked by 1 family in Falls Church, VA

Hi, my name is Krista and I am a college student home for the summer looking for babysitting/nanny jobs! With four years of hands-on experience, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for kids of all ages, including those with special needs. I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified and I’m open to watching kids of all ages and abilities. I also have years of experience with animals from dogs to bearded dragons to horses. I can complete house hold chores or provide homework help if need be! I also have a large, safe car and I am willing to drive around your little ones (will need to be provided with booster seats if applicable). If you need a reliable and responsible babysitter or pet sitter, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Krista was wonderful with our 6 year old daughter. She was consistently punctual and responsive. We would happily hire her again!

Wendy 3 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Falls Church, VA

A little bit about me… Families often tell me I bring a calm, and engaging presence—especially with babies, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. I love nurturing curiosity through play, encouraging independence, and creating predictable routines that help children feel safe, confident, and deeply cared for. I have several years of experience with infants as well as elementary aged children. Over the past year, I've had the privilege of serving as a full-time live-out nanny for a wonderful family with two energetic, curious children (currently ages 3 and 5). With my experience homeschooling and parenting my own high energy children, this role strengthened my abilities even more. My responsibilities include daily transportation in the family's vehicle to and from school, camps, appointments, play dates, and extracurricular activities, while maintaining a safe, organized, and dependable routine. I am neurodiversity-affirming and have additional training supporting children with learning differences, including dyslexia, and dysgraphia. My focus is always connection-based care. I would love to learn how I can support you and your families needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and background checked with clean driving record.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Wendy. Any family who has the opportunity to hire her will be incredibly fortunate. Wendy brings an infectious energy and enthusiasm to everything she does. She is creative, patient, and has a remarkable ability to connect with children, even in the most challenging situations. Whether she's helping a child navigate potty training, working through meltdowns, or supporting them during moments of sensory overload, she approaches every challenge with calm, empathy, and skill. She teaches children effective ways to cope with big emotions, communicate their needs, and build confidence. Her knowledge of child development is exceptional, and it's clear that her years of experience have given her both incredible wisdom and intuition. She creates a safe, nurturing environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to grow. At the same time, she establishes clear expectations and helps children develop respect, kindness, and independence. Wendy is also an excellent communicator. She is reliable, professional, and always open to feedback and collaboration. We always felt comfortable discussing ideas or concerns, knowing she would listen thoughtfully and work with us as a true partner in caring for our children. Most importantly, our children absolutely adored her. They looked forward to every day they spent with Wendy, and we loved knowing they were not only having fun but also learning, growing, and thriving under her care. We are incredibly grateful for the time our family had with Wendy. She has made a lasting impact on our children, and we recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for an exceptional nanny.

"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)."
