Booked by 6 families in West 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.

Hi! My name is Emily and I have over 17 years of babysitting experience with all ages (infant to 10+ y/o). I started babysitting when I was 13 (am originally from the DMV) and have done everything from date nights to summer nannying to event sitting (weddings, etc.). I'm calm, patient, flexible and love working with kids! I'm looking for occasional date night, weeknight or weekend sitting opportunities. I would love to meet you and your little one(s) and am more than happy to do a call or in-person meet and greet to ensure it's a good fit.

“Hello family, This letter is my personal character reference for Marcala Joseph. I have been a close friend of Marcala’s for 5 years and her immediate trainee for three. We both worked at a retail store and as caregiver back in 2018. In my interactions with her, l've found that she consistently exceeds expectations in her interpersonal skills, problem-solving abilities, and work ethic. She is a caring person, very patient and pay close at attention to details, with her past caregiver experience I believe she will be a great addition to your family.

"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."

"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)."
