Mariah $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mariah, and I'm currently a college student based in Fairfax. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and have experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers through family and personal experience. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, bedtime, and keeping kids engaged in safe, age-appropriate activities. I love doing creative projects like arts and crafts, reading together, going on walks or to the park, and just being present and attentive to what each child enjoys. In addition to childcare, I offer pet care services. I have experience caring for cats and large dogs, including feeding, walking, and playtime. I'm comfortable with larger breeds and maintaining consistent routines. I also provide househould support, including light cleaning, laundry, organizing, meal prep, and running errands. I keep my own living space cleaning and understand how it is to have someone dependable and respectful in your home. I pride myself on being reliable,patient, and communicative, and I always aim to create a safe and positive environment for the families I work with.

Isabel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Isabel and I have recently graduated from high school. I’m planning on going to JMU in the fall. I’ve had experience with watching kids and animals since I was in 7th grade: I grew up babysitting by taking care of the younger members of my family, even if I was still a baby then, too! I love babysitting and I’d be more than willing to help out with groceries, chores, drive around the kids, or even help with cooking if needed. I am CPR certified, Stop The Bleed certified, and I recently became a CCMA (certified medical assistant) certified. I’d make sure that your children have a fun (yet safe!) time with me. Thank you for your consideration!

"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)."
