Alicia $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Occoquan, VA

Hi! I’m a 23-year-old Virginia Tech graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Public Health and a minor in Medicine and Society (Class of 2025). I currently work as a substitute teacher for both elementary and high school students, which has helped me build strong communication, patience, and problem-solving skills with children of all ages. As the oldest sibling, I’ve also helped care for my younger siblings since they were toddlers, giving me hands-on childcare experience from an early age. I’m fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and TB tested. Other teachers have described me as caring, empathetic, attentive to detail, dependable, and a fast learner. I enjoy creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment for children while helping with daily routines, homework, and activities.

Diana $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I'm a nanny with over two years of experience caring for children from 0 to 12 years old. I'm passionate about supporting their growth in a safe, loving environment filled with fun and learning. I've worked with families long-term, babysitting and also cared for groups of children at church, giving me plenty of hands-on experience with different ages and personalities. I'm responsible, respectful, honest and very empathetic with children's emotions. I'm also creative, patient, and love creating fun moments that contribute to their development. I always keep open communication with parents and adapt to their rules and routines. I have tons of fun ideas, educational games, and activities to keep kids engaged, happy, and safe. If you're looking for someone trustworthy who truly enjoys taking care of kids, I'd love to help!

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)."
