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!)
Nurturing young minds and fostering a positive impact on children's lives drives my passion for childcare. With more than 7 years of experience, I offer a calm, patient, and professional approach to supporting families with children aged newborn to five, but also willing to work with older kids. As a Certified Teacher, I bring educational expertise to our daily activities, whether we are playing board games, solving puzzles, or engaging in outdoor physical play. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules to ensure consistency and structure. I am happy to assist with cooking and meal preparation for the kid. I prioritize clear communication, providing updates via your preferred method. My goal is to provide a safe, enriching environment where your child can thrive. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted partner in your child's growth.
Hello! My name is Ashton and I am 39. I have been babysitting and pet sitting for many years. I mostly deal with toddler age and up and all kind of animals. I love being outside and doing activities outside. If the weather does not permit, fun educational games or toys are my go to. Have a great day!
Hello everyone! My name is Jennifer and I currently live in Vienna. I currently work full-time, but I love babysitting on the side! I have the option to work remotely from home so I am available to take babysitting jobs right after work and on weekends! I absolutely LOVE kids and I have a lot of experience babysitting kids of ALL ages (1-10). For reference, I used to babysit for a family with 3 kids (ages 1, 4, 6). I babysat them every week for 6 months. I would also watch their dog while I was there. I would cook for them, play with them, read to them, and go though their bedtime routine. We would also do fun stuff like have read books, sing songs, draw pictures, and play games! I also used to babysit a 8 month old boy every Monday, Wednesday, Friday every week for a year. I would be with him 8 hours a day. I would take him on stroller walks, change his diapers, put him to bed for naps, cook/feed him, etc. I would also watch and take care of their puppy on the job. Now that I have a full time job, I still love babysitting when I can! I am also very good with dogs and animals! I have a dog if my own, named Bella, and I have experience taking care of the family’s dogs while babysitting. Please do not hesitate to reach out!
“Jennifer was great! So kind and communicative, and our daughter took to her right away. Highly recommend! ”

"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."

"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!"
