Booked by 3 families in Fairfax, VA

I got my most experience from raising my three kids, and I always loved being surrounded with children even before having my own. so after graduating from college I worked as a pre-school teacher for 2 years in my country where I enjoyed creating fun activities for children, teaching and playing with them. In the last few years working as a part-time babysitter for children ranging from infants a few months old to 13-year-olds gives me a broad view of child development and a strong foundation for managing different age groups. As a mom, spending time with my kids was and still so precious to me, and I assure you that I will treat your kids and take care of them like they were my own. I am available early morning and afternoon , and the whole day on Thursday and Sunday, and I will be more than glad to help in taking care of your kids during these times. I have First Aid/CPR/AED certification, & up to date on flu vaccine. *References available upon request.

“We had a wonderful experience with Fatima. She arrived on time and was very friendly. My son has a hard time when we leave and she handled it really well. I will definitely be using her again in the future. ”

Flaminia $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced, energetic and responsible young adult woman. I love kids and have experience both in house babysitting 2 young girls over 5 years, as well as working in a performance training facility with the youth group of ages 3-15 years old. I have loved teaching young girls and boys to move their bodies safely & efficiently and know how to keep them busy. I’ve worked with both disabled, hyperactive, and the overly shy kids. I believe my experience leading large groups (10+ kids) of youth can make me a unique babysitter. Currently, I am a full time personal trainer based in DC and a holistic nutrition & health coach for my own wellness brand.. and I just miss working with kids!! Looking for a part time/ occasional gig to fill in my free time and flexible schedule (I’m also new to the area, so happy to see different neighborhoods and meet nice families!)
