Hi everyone! My name is Kyla and I live in DC area! I am looking for a part time, occasional, date night, evening or weekend gig! I have been babysitting for about 6 years now, and also have 4 years of tutoring experience through Kumon. I have nannied for two families both with 3-4 kids! In addition, I have worked as a summer camp counselor, volunteered in classrooms and done date night and occasional babysitting! I do have a full time job so mostly looking for evening and weekend gigs! I am looking to build relationships with kids and families that last for a while, and want you to become a part of my family! As a babysitter I strive to make every time I visit as fun as possible. I am a babysitter who loves to engage in fun activities with the children whether that be in the home or exploring fun places in your local neighborhood. In my past babysitting jobs, I have implemented learning into my time with the children whether it is through workbooks, reading, art projects, science experiments or visiting places in the area anything to support your family and your child’s unique interests. As a previous tutor, I am happy to support with reading, math and support any learning! If we seem like a good fit, please don't hesitate to message me to learn more about me and how I can best help your family!

*I will be at Salisbury University till December 19th, I’m not currently able to take any DMV bookings! Thank you! I look forward to helping out when I’m back* Hi families! I’m Edina, but I go by Edie! I’m in the process of becoming a special education teacher, and working with children is truly my passion. I’m very active, fun, and love taking kids to the playground, doing pretend play, reading, and other engaging activities. I also love creating spaces where kids feel seen, heard, safe, and encouraged to be themselves. I have handled many routines such as bedtime, evenings and afternoons. I’m currently studying Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education at Salisbury University. I’m trained in advanced childcare and certified in CPR, AED, and First Aid. I don’t drive but I’m super comfortable taking Metro, MetroBus and Lyft. I’ve worked with a few wonderful families on UrbanSitter and would love to connect with more this season for date nights, evenings, and afternoons. If you’re looking for a warm, reliable, and fun sitter, feel free to reach out or send me a booking request!

Edina was great! When another sitter canceled, she responded quickly and arrived early for instructions. She played soccer in the backyard, got to kids fed and bathed and our 4 & 7 year old had the best time with her!

Hi there! I am a recent graduate living in DC with my 11-month-old kitten Callie. I work at an afterschool program for pre-K kids run by the Y and do lots of babysitting throughout the DMV! I have experience with babies, teens, and everything in between, including caring for multiples! I have a car, love pets, and can handle bedtime, bathtime, feeding, outings, household chores, and whatever else you can throw at me! In my free time, I love to read, do crafts, hike, and go to the gym. I'm volunteering with the Archives and Natural History Museum, and hope to work in children's programming at museums! I love encouraging curiosity and creative thought, and encouraging kids to develop and appreciate themselves and the wonderful world we live in :)

My kids had a great time with Molly!
