Booked by 6 families in Springfield, VA

Hi! My name is Danah, I'm a recent graduate who is taking a gap year before moving for graduate school in the fall. I'm looking for a summer job and turned to baby-sitting because I love spending time with children. I have previous experience with child-care, including helping out at a local middle school. I have taken care of ages 1.5, 2.5, 5, 8, and 12. I am available weekdays and weekends. I have my own car and have held a license for five years, meaning I'm flexible with locations. I am a big kid myself so taking care of your little one(s) would be a joy for me. Whether it be reading with them, helping out with homework, or playing, I am all in! I would love to take care of your family this summer :) Please let me know if you would like any references or a copy of my resume. I am also fully vaccinated, so no worries there.

Hello! I'm an author and narrative strategist looking to supplement my freelance income while I edit my first book. I worked as a camp counselor (Potomac School, Ligonier Camp) before heading off to NYC for my former life as an editor (Martha Stewart, NBCUniversal); now in my mid-30s, I'm excited to revive my skills as a part-time babysitter. If you're looking for curiosity, calm authority, and an artistic presence who's always down for creative play, I'm your gal. I also do a killer read-aloud bedtime story.

Shana $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced nanny and caregiver with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school-age children, including children with autism and cerebral palsy. Families appreciate my calm, nurturing personality, strong sense of responsibility, and ability to keep children engaged, safe, and happy. I’m also comfortable helping with household support such as meal prep, light cleaning, organizing, errands, and maintaining routines that help families run smoothly. As a mother myself, I understand the importance of patience, structure, and creating a warm environment where children feel supported, loved, and encouraged to grow.

"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)."
