Hello! My name is Caroline, I’m a 25 year old communications strategist, and I’d love to be your babysitter! Growing up as the oldest sister, I’ve been taking care of my younger siblings and cousins since middle school. I’ve babysat for numerous families over the years with kids ages 2 and up. I can also cook, clean, and help with homework. I love dogs and would be happy to walk your furbaby too! Please message if interested. Thank you!
“Caroline is GREAT, we can’t wait to have her back. Very flexible, responsible, reliable, kind, caring and fun. Thanks, Caroline! ”
Hello! I'm Gabriela! I've taken care of babies, kids and teenagers for more many years, all between the ages of 2 months old to 14 y/o. I have a degree in English Teaching; and back home (Mexico) I was a Spanish and English teacher in a primary school, high school and university for a few years. I consider myself a reliable, responsible, spontaneous, and emphatic person. I'd love to have the opportunity to talk with you to get to know each other better, and see if I have the chance to take care of your beautiful kid(s)! I'm fully vaccinated and always looking for the best way to stay healthy by following the covid prevention recommendations.
“Gabriela was wonderful. My wife was in town for a conference and brought our 12 year old daughter. The two days she was doing conference things, she hired Gabriela to take our daughter to see the sites in DC, and I guess the best review is that one day after my daughter returned home and I was saying goodnight she whispered to me "I already miss Gaby". They saw cool things that we didn't know about, had fun, rambled. Gabriella is a true good spirit, you can't go wrong.”
Hi! I'm Reagan, a senior psychology major, sociology minor at Howard University, originally from the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana. I'm excited to offer my services in child care, as well as taking care of your furry friends and helping out with basic household tasks. With seven years of babysitting experience under my belt, starting from the age of 13, I've confidently looked after groups of up to three children, all aged 12 and below. Growing up in a large family packed with little cousins, each with their own unique personalities and needs, has given me a solid foundation in providing nurturing and safe care. I've also had the pleasure of serving as a camp counselor for various summer programs, catering to children aged 8 to 15. My passion for working with children shines through in my dedication to studying psychology, with a particular interest in understanding and supporting young minds. Babysitting not only brings me joy but also provides valuable hands-on experience that aligns perfectly with my career aspirations! Please note that I'll be traveling to and from all babysitting gigs using walking or public transportation. Thank you for considering me for this opportunity! Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones soon!
“Reagan was prompt, open to direction about the kids bedtime routines, and had them both in bed when we got home. I would definitely recommend her, and will be using her again!”
Hi everyone! My name is Britney and I’m a junior political science major at Howard University looking to babysit afterschool or during the weekends. I have over 10 years of experience with childcare and can provide references if needed. My schedule is pretty flexible because all my classes are in the morning and I plenty of free time during the weekend. I love engaging children in arts and crafts, reading stories together, and baking treats, making every moment a chance for learning and laughter. I can also assist with homework. Please message me if you have any questions or interested in having me as a sitter 🧸
