Madison $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi there! I'm Madison and live in Northwest DC. I went to the University of Richmond and have spent the last 5 years working in the nonprofit space. I'm currently career pivoting to apply to school for occupational therapy, and I have a flexible schedule. I have experience babysitting, working as a companion for senior citizens, and years working as a camp counselor. I'm bilingual, energetic, and also happy to provide tutoring or homework help. I also love animals, happy to dog walk / dog sit as well and am comfortable with cats (have one at home😊)
Kathleen $21 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I'm Kathleen and have had sitting gigs/volunteer gigs with kids on and off since high school. I have eight nieces and nephews, so I am super comfortable with kids & there's not much I haven't seen!
Grace $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I'm Grace! I've been in DC for over 10 years and have always enjoyed doing occasional babysitting jobs while also working full-time. When I'm not working at a museum in DC where my work includes overseeing educational exhibits, field trips, and teacher content, I can be found walking my dog or visiting my nephews. I truly enjoy spending time with children and working with families over time to understand each personality and need. I have a range of experience from infant to school-aged as well as children with special needs. I'm here to help when you need the occasional day or night off.
Grace $17 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Washington Navy Yard, DC
Hi - My name is Grace. I'm 23 years old and graduated from Hillsdale College this past May. I work a full time job during the week, so I am looking for part-time and occasional jobs after 5:00 p.m. during the week and during the day on the weekends. I have experience working with kids coaching beginner and competitive gymnastics for ages 4-12. I also have experience volunteering at my college's preschool. I can plan educational or fun activities for the child if desired. I am not allergic to any pets.
Kate $19 per hour for 1 child
Hi, my name is Kate! I have lived in Capitol Hill for the past four years, but I'm originally from St. Louis, Missouri. I am offering child care, household services and can help with any pets. I love being a babysitter and have a lot of experience watching toddlers and kids from a young age, including my cousin, who was born when I was 13! I babysat him multiple times a week until I left for college (and after), as well as other kids in my neighborhood. My older sister and mom are both elementary school teachers (kindergarten and 1st grade!), so I also have a lot of fun experience helping out in their classrooms! I grew up with a dog and currently have 2 cats, so happy to also help out with pets where needed.
