Aida $22 per hour for 1 child

I have a lot of experience working with kids. I have been a gymnastics coach for the last four years working with infants all the way to teenagers. As a coach, my responsibilities have included running both classes, private lessons and summer camps. Classes and private lessons have really taught me how to most effectively communicate with kids, whereas working at the summer camps has allowed me to tap into my creativity, coming up with games and crafts that kids actually enjoy. I have always babysat on the side in addition to coaching, so I am also very familiar with any household tasks that might be expected of me- bedtime, making dinners, etc! If you have pets, I am happy to look after them as well. I grew up with two dogs and have a mini dachshund myself now- I love animals! I am very adaptable to your families needs and always communicate to the best of my abilities. Additionally, I am CPR and first aid certified!

Hi! I’m Katherine, I’ve worked as a YMCA camp counselor for several years with kids ages 5–13, mostly 7–10-year-olds.

Rafaliarison $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone – My name is Steffy and I am passionate about childcare, and household services. I love being around kids and have always been surrounded by family. As the first grandchild, I grew up taking care of all my younger cousins until they became independent, which gave me valuable experience. I also love cooking, which is my other job, and enjoy preparing meals for families. Caring for others is one of the most important values my parents taught me, and I carry that into my work. I am passionate about organizing and cleaning, which makes me well-suited to handle household tasks and run errands efficiently. I am a big animal lover, having had 3 dogs and 6 turtles, so I’m happy to work with pets as well! Babysitting and caregiving allow me to combine my love for kids, cooking, organizing, and helping others. I look forward to working with your family!

Booked by 1 family in Dunn Loring, VA

Hi, I’m Virginia, and I work from home as an HR project manager with my own beagle-Bassett hound as a steady coworker. He’s almost 6 years old (DOB 09/2020) and playful, chill, spunky. My weekly schedule is fairly predictable and flexible so I’m looking forward to being able to help care for your dog, too!

“Virginia is the best! She is so caring and kind with our Cavapoo, Mochi, and gives us complete peace of mind knowing our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We’re so grateful for her!”
