Booked by 3 families in Franconia, VA

I have been caring for children for over 8 years now! I moved to DC from Texas where I babysat, led a middle school girls youth group and volunteered in the children’s ministry of a local nonprofit. I enjoy working with kids because their curiosity and energy keeps me on my toes and reminds me to look for the wonder in life! I value building relationships with every child I babysit and learning about their interests. I will read books, bake, facilitate outdoor games or step back and supervise if your kiddos prefer independent play! I am also happy to take on dishes, laundry, and other house work. I have worked with children ranging from newborns through middle school, and am comfortable with any age. I can also handle multiple at a time; a favorite group of friends I babysat for had 4 kids under 6 with an 8-month old — we had so much fun together! Fun facts: My favorite books from my childhood were Little House on the Prairie and Series of Unfortunate Events, and my favorite board game was Monopoly. Some nitty-gritty: I am vaccinated for COVID & other routine illnesses and I have been background checked through Urban Sitter. I love pets but do not to work in homes with pit bulls.

“Drew was so wonderful with our 5 year old son. She was immediately warm and great with him and came up with creative play ideas and ensured a smooth bedtime. We hope to work with Drew again! ”

Hello there! My name is Brenda, and I’m from Colombia. I’m excited to share that I’m offering childcare services. I’ve been working with children for eight years now, and I’m currently a nanny in Arlington, Virginia. I’m taking care of three boys who are 10, 12, and 13 years old. Before this family, I had the privilege of caring for a baby who was just 10 months old. I took care of him until he was 2 and a half years old. I’ve gained a lot of experience with children. I had worked with really good families that they’ll happy to give you references about my job and my personality. Usually my responsibilities are only about the kids like, cook, drive, play, do crafts and to tutoring.

“Brenda was my children’s nanny for the summer (boy, 9, and girl, 6). Brenda was absolutely wonderful and I can’t recommend her enough! She was punctual, professional, and very engaging with the children. She was responsible for getting the kids ready for the day, making them meals, driving them, and playing with them – among other things. My kids loved playing both indoors and outdoors with Brenda. They did a variety of fun activities, including arts/crafts, games, and going to the pool. I should add that my children’s father and I recently separated, and Brenda went back and forth between our two homes seamlessly. The kids had a terrific summer with her, and I highly recommend her as a nanny and babysitter.”

Hi, my name is Aina and I am a third year at George Washington University. I am currently studying abroad in Colombia and will be back in DC mid January. I am normally looking for occasional babysitting opportunities with children ranging from 2-12 years old. When it comes to child care I have been babysitting for two years in the Atlanta and D.C. area. In addition, I have one full year's worth of experience being an after school teacher for kindergartners and first graders at East Valley Elementary school in Marietta, Georgia. At that job, myself along with a co teacher were responsible for upwards of 20 students each day and in a school environment, that was quite manageable, and I know it'd be an even more enjoyable experience if I had more attention to give to fewer children. I also have college experience part time babysitting with multiple families, three of them who I worked with on a consistent basis. I have lots of energy to give when it comes to caring for children and I can find creative ways to keep them engaged and entertained. Working with children is rewarding for me because I remember how much the adults, beyond my parents helped create wonderful memories during my childhood. I hope to provide that same positive impact for others. I used to own a dog for many years and I am comfortable babysitting in pet households so I also have experience with pet care.

Booked by 2 families in Franconia, VA

⸻ Hi! I just graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Criminology and Criminal Justice. I’ve been babysitting on and off for the past seven years and love working with kids of all ages (and pets too!). I’m easygoing, funny, and always up for a good game, craft, or kitchen adventure. Cooking’s one of my favorite hobbies, and I can’t wait to explore DC! I’m all about creating a fun, safe, and positive environment wherever I go!

“I used Genevieve for household services. We were away from our house for 3 weeks and needed her to come twice a week to house sit - taking care of plants, bringing in the mail, etc. She followed the directions to a tee and even went above and beyond to think ahead such as accounting for extreme weather conditions. Genevieve had great communication throughout the entire duration. She was very dependable and someone you can definitely trust. I had a great experience overall and highly recommend her.”

I am a Senior at Shenandoah University, where I play lacrosse and study Psychology, hoping to become a NICU/ pediatric nurse or a speech-language pathologist. I love kids and enjoy being active and being outside as well as cooking and baking. I have been both a nanny and an occasional babysitter for about 5 years. I also have dog sat as well as cat sat. I am also experienced in senior care, as I cared for my grandmother and did 40 hours of clinicals in a senior living center.
