Hi family! My name is Ángela, I am 25 years old and originally from Colombia. I have childcare experience from my home country, caring for children of different ages. I truly enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment for them. I am responsible, patient, and reliable, and I always prioritize the children’s well-being and daily routines. I also love dogs and feel comfortable being around pets. I would love the opportunity to support your family.
“Angela helped us out last minute to babysit our daughter who was home sick from school. She arrived a few minutes early and immediately engaged our daughter. You can tell she is both an experienced babysitter and a lovely person. Our daughter reported that she was “so, so nice.” We look forward to having her over again! ”
Hi - My name is Serena and I'm currently sophomore at George Mason University. I am offering child care and pet care. I enjoy being a helping hand to others thanks to the many parents in my family that needed assistance whether that be with their children or watching over their household. Thanks to this, I have experience with infants, toddlers, and kids. I am capable of driving to and from activities and cooking meals. Also (being a pet owner myself), I have experience taking care of dogs of various breeds. I have a high comfort level with dogs that shed and dogs that are on the larger side.
Hi! My name is Delfina and I’m 26 years old. I’m from Argentina and love teaching Spanish to kids! I’m about to start studying Early childhood development and looking to fill up some of my free hours between classes and my current part time nanny position. I have more than 7 years of experience taking care of kids of all ages -infants till teens. I’m CPR and first aid certified. I have my own car -clean driving record- and I’m willing to drive kids places if needed. I love spending time outside, going to the local library and doing fun things while babysitting! I’m okay with pets in the house and wouldn’t mind helping out with light household tasks if needed. If you think we can be a good match don’t doubt reaching out. Thank you!
Hi! I'm a passionate nanny with years of experience caring for children of all ages — newborns, toddlers, and preteens alike. I started nannying in high school and carried it all the way through college because it's something I truly love. I’m now working as a Compliance Consultant and want to spend the rest of my afternoons/evenings with even more fulfillment. I'm compassionate, dependable, and genuinely invested in every child's growth and wellbeing. I enjoy supporting developmental goals, helping with homework, and being a warm, steady presence families can count on. I'm also CPR and first aid certified for extra peace of mind. I'd love to learn more about your family — feel free to reach out!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
