Reliable And Trustworthy Babysitter

Avg response < 1 hrs

As an aspiring physician, caring for others is my passion! I have a full-time job (mostly sitting on a desk), so I'm always looking forward to playing and being active with children. I strive to meet children at their mental and physical needs, making them feel like I am one of their own while giving them my undivided attention. I am caring, energetic, always punctual, reliable, and respectful of different parenting styles. More about me: Fully bilingual (Spanish). STEM-oriented with a liberal arts education in biological and premedical sciences. Experience with tutoring and homework help. Love kitchen projects and meal prep. Experience with children ages 0-10, but would love to babysit older children as well. Love pets! I'm committed to making things easier for you and your family. Reference available upon request. Background check has been performed upon request (clean criminal record; clean driving record, although I don't have a car in DC).

Kathyana was AWESOME!! She watched our 1 year old while hubby and I went out for date night. Kat did a great job with our fussy bundle of joy. She made our daughter feel like they had been friends for a long time! Plus, she paid attention to all of our requests and did everything with a smile. She is trustworthy, responsible, and professional. Positive attitude, energy, and an outstanding vibe. We will definitely hire her again!

Annie is great! My son loves her and so do we! She is a part of the family, she speaks mandarin with him, takes him out on adventures, and follows my schedule and rules. She is the best!

Jessica B.|Washington, DC

$20-30/hr • 10 yrs exp • 39 yrs old

Part-time Babysitter With 20+ Years Experience

Avg response < 9 hrs

I really enjoy working with children of any age, and I have 20+ years of experience from previous nanny and child care positions (aged newborn up to high school) as well as in the non-profit education sector. I think child care/babysitting should be a mix of fun and learning while sticking to the guidelines and goals of the parents. I am flexible, creative and enthusiastic, and I try to encourage the children I am taking care of to be creative themselves and to enjoy each activity. I know each child is an individual, and I strive to promote their sense of self and independence while encouraging kindness and an awareness of community. Additionally, I can assist with errands, pick up/drop off, cooking, and similar tasks.

We had a function to attend in DC and needed someone to watch our 4-year old in our hotel room. Jessica was perfect! She arrived on time (actually a little earlier), helped our son with his homework, played games, made up some fun activities and origami, played Legos, fed him, and overall was exactly what we needed. My son didn't want her to leave, and actually has asked a few times when he can play with her again! We are very grateful for Jessica, and if ever in the area again, will definitely give her a call. We give her our highest recommendation.

Part-time Babysitter

I have a masters in child life with several years of experience working with a wide range of ages. I believe that "play is the child's work," and that play is pivotal to growth and development. My favorite activity as a child was playing dress up!

Experienced Babysitter Seeking Part-time Opportunities

Avg response < 9 hrs

Hi! My name is Melissa and I have been living in Woodley Park since August 2018. I am seeking part-time childcare work such as date nights. I work full-time as a Clinical Audiologist; therefore, I am not available during the day Monday to Friday. I have babysat for many families over the years and continue to enjoy caring for children. When I was 11 years old, I had my first job working with children as a mother's helper for a family in my neighborhood. I've cared for families with one to four children from the ages of 3 months to 13 years old. I was also a live-in nanny for a family in Southampton, NY over a summer during college. I am a hands-on babysitter; I love keeping the children busy with reading books, playing board games, playing sports, and doing arts and crafts. I am a warm, trustworthy, reliable, and kind individual. Please contact me if you think I'd be a good fit for your family! *FBI fingerprinting completed by the state of MD & DC*

Melissa was superbly helpful babysitting at our wedding. She watched 4 toddlers who were there as flower girls. We asked her to take the kids, when the parents wanted a break, and she did an excellent job being available for whenever it was helpful. She was punctual, respectful, professional and the kids felt comfortable playing with her. Highly recommend.

Hi! I have been babysitting and nannying for children of all ages since 2006. I have worked for professional nanny agencies as a sitter and in a coordinator capacity, hiring nannies and managing placements. I'm currently a working professional looking to help families and enrich children's lives outside of my 8a-5p work hours. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family :)

Experienced, Care Giver/babysitter - Part Time

Avg response < 5 hrs

My name is Vira, and I'm a single mother of 4 adult daughters, and a grandmother to an adorable granddaughter. I have 16 years of experience caring for children at a private early education school, and 6 of those years are caring for children from 6 weeks to 2 years. I am loving, caring, patient, and responsible. I provide a safe, educational, nurturing and compassionate environment for the children in my care. I especially enjoy caring for infants and toddlers. I am certified in CPR/First Aid and fill the requirements of 24 yearly hours of professional development and training. I genuinely love caring for children and find great joy in being a part of their lives and contributing to their emotional and social growth. I am a US Citizen, am agreeable to a background check, and will provide references on request. I am a non-smoker, and love pets. I have a valid driver's license, although I do not have my own car at present.

Vira has been our son's loving nanny for the past year in our Montessori -style home. Everyone talks about how much their nannies love their kids, but I can promise you that it would be the very rare caretaker who could hold a candle to the love and devotion Vira gives our son. We can't imagine a world in which we could have raised him without her -- she has helped us, as parents, teach him to sleep in a crib, eat solid foods, plus all the other parts of raising a child. Our son was extremely premature, so all the regular milestones were harder and more complicated than average -- but she'd already seen it all in her 20+ years of childcare experience and always knew exactly what to do and sought out/learned the best ways to help our child catch up. We are now only transitioning away as our child is entering school. We adore her and would be happy to talk to anyone who is considering making her part of their family. Y

Elise S.|Washington, DC

$20-20/hr • 8 yrs exp • 32 yrs old

Part-Time Sitter Available For Babysitting Jobs

I am an enthusiastic babysitter seeking morning, early afternoon, and weekend jobs within biking distance from Capitol Hill/NoMa/H Street DC. I work from home as a freelance project manager but would love to be a go-to date night sitter for families nearby! Before moving to DC in 2013, I was a long term substitute at a K-6 charter school in Columbus, Ohio. I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Ukraine (09-12) where I taught English and literature in grades 4-11 and led camps for students ages 6-18. I've taught swim lessons and coached off and on for 12 years through the YMCA, city pools, and private clubs. When spending time with children, I like to be clear with rules and expectations - it is a lot easier to have fun together if everyone understands what's expected. I love to run around outside, visit the library, read aloud, make music, craft, build things, and can check/go over homework.

Isabel S.|Washington, DC

$20-25/hr • 8 yrs exp • 28 yrs old

Creative Babysitter Available

Dear parents, I have been working with children for over eight years as a paid babysitter and part-time nanny. I have worked as an assistant teacher at a French immersion preschool and also as an assistant in RIE parent-infant classes. I am always inspired by the inherent creativity and spontaneity of children. I completed my BA in liberal arts with an emphasis in studio art/art history in Italy and I love traveling, languages, poetry, art and of course, working with children! I am currently doing an internship for Smithsonian Folklife Magazine in DC, and I would like to find some part time babysitting work. I have experience with children 2 plus. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

We feel very lucky to have found Isabel. Our daughter adores her and looks forward to their time together. Isabel is a professional...she is punctual, pays attention, cares about what they do and eat together, and she's always up for new adventures. I trust her implicitly and highly recommend her.

Experienced Babysitter

I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I have worked with many families with 1-3 children. I have taken care of children from 3 months old to 12 years old. I also have worked at a camp for children with special needs in Raleigh for 5 summers and one of those summers I was the Camp Director. I have four younger siblings all of which I have helped take care of while growing up.

Kali took care of our two boys for over two years as their regular babysitter. She was always on time, showed great care for the boys, was creative, loving but also able to enforce rules and boundaries which they very much needed. Our boys were always excited for her to be their sitter. We trusted Kali completely and would, without a doubt, hire her again.
