Currently, I am a Sunday school teacher at my local church where I have been teaching and caring for children in the age range of 0-13y/o for 5 years now. Additionally, I had the privilege of babysitting my 4 nieces and nephews for most of their infant/toddler years. I am CPR certified and have taken courses on early child development. I am passionate about the well being of children, very organized and timely and can adjust well to new environments.

Hi! I'm Ellie, a graduate student at American University with a passion for working with children and animals. Growing up as the oldest of five siblings with four younger brothers, I've always been surrounded by kids and have developed a natural ability to connect with them. I've spent the past several years working in various childcare and youth program roles, from managing an after-school elementary program to coordinating middle school activities through the Parks and Recreation department of my hometown, Kalamazoo Michigan. I love creating engaging, educational experiences for kids while ensuring they feel safe, heard, and excited to learn. I offer comprehensive childcare, petcare, and household services. This includes everything from babysitting and tutoring to dog walking and pet sitting, as well as light housekeeping, meal preperation, grocery shopping, and running errands. I have my own car and am comfortable with flexible scheduling. I have extensive experience with toddlers and elementary - middle school aged children. I spent a year helping manage an elementary after school program where I led activities, assisted with homework and reading, and implemented a positive behavioral reward system. For middle schoolers, I've assisted with bowling and archery programs. I also managed a community pool for four years where I regularly interacted with children of all ages, from toddlers to teens, and supervised summer camp groups. I love combining creativity with physical activity! I enjoy arts and crafts projects like painting, drawing, and photography, as well as singing and playing music. I'm also passionate about getting outside, whether its going on nature walks, playing active games, or just exploring the neighborhood. Reading together, helping with homework, and playing board games are also some of my favorites. I've had dogs my whole life and have pet sat for my family's dogs countless times. I have experience with several breeds including Havanese, Schnauzers, Labs, Airedales, and Poodles. I've also handled exotic animals like turtles, snakes, bearded dragons, and even alligators, while working for an alligator sanctuary! Having recently moved to the DC area from Michigan, I'm excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to local families who need caring support. I'm reliable, responsible, and genuinely care about fostering a safe and fun environment for kids and pets. I'd love the opportunity to be someone you can count on!
Hello Families, My name is Jay, and I am currently an Educator with over 20 years of experience. I enjoy being a sitter and have watched children of all ages, from infants to teens. I am first aid certified and have a background check with a clean CPR report. When sitting, I love playing tabletop/board games, doing arts and crafts, and having a good dance party! I am happy to work with families with pets, can do light meals, and drive children to various events. I am available evenings, weekends, and overnight in special cases. I look forward to working with your family!
Hi! I’m Paige. As the youngest of five, I grew up surrounded by older siblings who shaped me into someone patient, adaptable, and easy to connect with. Being part of a big family made me naturally comfortable around children and helped me understand different personalities and family dynamics. I’ve also played a big role in raising my nephew since he was a baby (he’s 5 now). We have a very close bond, and caring for him taught me how to keep kids engaged, supported, and on a healthy routine. I’m thoughtful, communicative, and always make sure children feel safe, heard, and comfortable. Parents can expect consistent updates and clear communication from me. I can prepare meals, keep things organized, help with bedtime routines, and assist with homework. I’m also a mentor at my job, so guiding and supporting others especially kids comes naturally to me. I’m great with pets as well; I’ve had four dogs and I’m very comfortable around animals. I’m available evenings and weekends, and I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and someone families can trust.
