$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 44 families in Townsend, VA

Hello! My name is Gina, and I’ve been working with kids for over 8 years. I started caring for my siblings at 16, then babysat for neighborhood families. Over the years, I’ve worked primarily with babies, but I enjoy working with kids of all ages. I came to the United States as an au pair in 2017 and spent a couple of years with a wonderful family. After that, I moved abroad to complete a master’s degree while teaching English to children in Spain. I returned to the DMV area in 2021 and have been working with families in DC and Maryland ever since. For the past couple of years, I’ve also been working in international development and advocacy. If you notice reviews from a while ago, it’s because I’ve maintained long-term relationships with families who still reach out to me occasionally. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like references. I’d be happy to provide them!

Briyanna $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Briyanna, and I have over 10 years of childcare experience working with children of all ages. My background includes babysitting, coaching toddler soccer, and working professionally as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), where I provided individualized support to children and helped them develop social, behavioral, and communication skills. I am patient, dependable, and passionate about creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. Whether it's helping with daily routines, organizing activities, or simply being a trusted caregiver, I strive to provide families with reliable, high-quality care. I am currently available through July 17 and would love the opportunity to support your family this summer.

Janet $12 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name’s Janet! I’m currently enrolled in the bachelors business program at ECPI. I work at Park Lane Tavern but am looking for a side gig. I’ve been babysitting ever since I was 12 and have a wide range of experience with many ages. I also used to lifeguard and teach swim lessons. I still have my CPR and first aid certification. I also have two nieces and a nephew that are my whole world that I love to take care of and do fun things with. I’ve pet sat and have taken care of numerous animals before as well. I love to cook and bake. I also don’t mind cleaning or doing any chores. Always leave things better than the way you found it, also who doesn’t love to come back to a cleaner house with no dishes. :)
