Booked by 3 families in Oakton, VA

Hi there! Nice to meet you! My name’s Lauren and I’m looking forward to working with your family. Here’s a bit about myself: I have years of experience working with children ages 1-10 as a babysitter, nanny, and I also previously worked as 4th and 5th grade elementary school teacher in Fairfax County. As I care for your child, I’ll make sure they are happy, engaged, and safe! Currently, I am taking a break from teaching and do private tutoring as well as babysitting. Please feel free to let me know any routines you follow, any likes/dislikes that your child may have, or anything you'd like to share with me. During care of your child, I'll respond to your calls/texts right away. I'm open to do a video call to introduce myself if you prefer that as well. Hope to hear from you! :) -Lauren

Very professional. On time. Good communication. Seamlessly integrated herself and made the transition easy for us to leave. Our little one had a great time with Hyun. Def recommend!

Niloufar $30 per hour for 1 child

I genuinely love spending time with children and have years of experience caring for kids both back home and here in the U.S. Since moving here, I’ve helped care for my niece and often take him and his friends to the playground on weekends when I’m free. I currently work as a dental assistant and am looking for part-time babysitting or nany opportunities in the evenings or on weekends. I’m patient, playful, and always make sure kids feel safe and happy.

Kaila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Kaila. I've been working with kids and pets since I was 14, and caregiving has always come naturally to me. For the past four years, I have done ABA therapy as a behavioral therapist working with children ages 2-18. I'm also the oldest in my family, so I grew up helping raise all the younger kids. I used to work as a vet tech and I have three dogs of my own, so I'm very comfortable with animals. I'm starting my master's program this fall and looking for a family who needs someone patient, reliable, and experienced.

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

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)."
