Hello! I'm a warm-hearted, imaginative, and patient professional with over a decade of experience in childcare.

Booked by 5 families in West Springfield, VA

Hello Family ! My name is Sarah and I'm a business administration major at Marymount University with extensive background in child care. As the eldest of seven children, I was often entrusted with the care of my younger siblings while our parents were at work. This formative experience gave me a natural talent for ensuring the happiness and safety of youngsters. I find it fun to interact with children and provid them fun and instructive activities. Whether working with infants, preschoolers, or teenagers, I am able to modify my approach to best suit the needs of each age group. To further ease your load, I can also, cook simple meals. Having my own car makes it easy and simple for me to drive the kids to their various appointments and activities. Having the opportunity to care for your children is something I am very happy about.

Hi! I'm a licensed elementary special education teacher with Fairfax County Public Schools available for summer weekdays. I offer babysitting services and/or individualized reading and writing tutoring for children ages 5-12. I have a reliable vehicle and can transport children to and from summer camps, activities, and appointments. Whether you need full-day care, transportation, or academic support to prevent summer learning regression, I'd love to help your family have a successful summer. I'm great with pets, too!

“Calli was great! She was communicative, punctual and a total pro! My daughter loved her and I felt like she was in good hands. Would definitely book again!”

Wendy 4 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in West Springfield, VA

A little bit about me… Families often tell me I bring a calm, and engaging presence—especially with babies, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. I love nurturing curiosity through play, encouraging independence, and creating predictable routines that help children feel safe, confident, and deeply cared for. I have several years of experience with infants as well as elementary aged children. Over the past year, I've had the privilege of serving as a full-time live-out nanny for a wonderful family with two energetic, curious children (currently ages 3 and 5). With my experience homeschooling and parenting my own high energy children, this role strengthened my abilities even more. My responsibilities include daily transportation in the family's vehicle to and from school, camps, appointments, play dates, and extracurricular activities, while maintaining a safe, organized, and dependable routine. I am neurodiversity-affirming and have additional training supporting children with learning differences, including dyslexia, and dysgraphia. My focus is always connection-based care. I would love to learn how I can support you and your families needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and background checked with clean driving record.

“Wendy punctual, communicative and was amazing with my three young kids — they all had a great time having her as their sitter. Will definitely want to work with her again!”

"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)."
