Bonjour! I’m a proud St. Lucian with a big heart and a passion for babysitting that blossomed when I was just 11 years old. Growing up, I helped raise my three younger siblings, who were born more than a decade after me. Those early experiences taught me patience, empathy, and how to guide little ones through every stage. From first steps to singing/sporty personalities. Watching them grow into their own identities lit a fire in me to support other children in the same way. Over the years, I’ve continued to babysit younger cousins and family friends, giving me hands-on experience with kids of various ages whenever I have time with my technical wiritng positon. I naturally gravitate toward creating a nurturing, positive environment where children feel safe, heard, and empowered. I'm especially proud of teaching manners in fun, memorable ways, and I bring calm energy and warm encouragement to every interaction. Whether we’re playing games, learning something new, or just having silly moments, I’m there with love, laughter, and genuine care.

Kayla watched my children (the youngest of whom was three months old). She was punctual, responsive and flexible. She quickly took control and engaged with our very active toddlers. I highly recommend her and would use her services again!

Greetings! I am a mom of three older children and I absolutely love children of all ages !! I have been a babysitter, nanny, tutor and a Pre-school teacher. I am certified to teach children Newborn - Kindergarten as well as CPR&First Aid certified(infants-adults). I have a Master’s degree in a discipline outside of childcare. I’ve been in childcare for 20+ years and I truly miss the children & families on a day-to-day basis from my classroom and full-time nanny days. I’m open to cooking for the children, taking them to&from activities, caring for them overnight as well as coming as a travel nanny (once we’re all comfortable) and walks outside/outdoor play, etc.- I’m flexible on activities you may select. I am more than willing to get an additional background check or more training if it’s required. I am familiar with and able to do a nanny share as well. I am vaccinated and have a great driving record. I’m excitedly seeking a full-time nanny position. For group/party inquiries, kindly contact elitechildcare.ecs@gmail.com.

My name is Carla Kooij and I currently babysit for date-nights or on the weekends. I've been babysitting since 2010. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Goucher College, and am certified in First Aid and CPR for infants, children and adults. I enjoy caring for children of all ages, and I have babysat for many families, military and non-military, and/or families who come to town for a wedding or event, and I've stayed at the hotel with their children while they are at the event. I prepare meals for children, do light housekeeping, help with homework, read children stories, supervise bedtime routines, help with bathroom activities (toilet, brushing teeth, bathing). I love playing games with children too, inside or out. I have babysat up to four children at a time from 2 months to 17 years old although now I prefer one to two children to watch. I’m a U.S. citizen and live in Alexandria, VA. I'm trustworthy, dependable, friendly and kind.

Carla was so sweet and nice! She was on time and even brought her puppet collection for our son to play with; which he just loved. She sent us pictures of him while we were out and was just a delight to have as our sitter. We would definitely recommend Carla for any of your sitter needs!

Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! My name is Valeska, and caring for children has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I first came to the United States as an au pair many years ago, where I had the privilege of caring for children of all ages. Since then, I’ve become a mother myself, which has given me an even deeper understanding of what families need and what children need to thrive. I know how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your children. I strive to be that dependable, caring person who creates a safe, happy, and nurturing environment while keeping kids engaged, active, and having fun. I’m patient, responsible, energetic, and genuinely enjoy spending time with children. Whether we’re going to the park, library, zoo, playground, pool, riding bikes, doing arts and crafts, reading books, playing games, or simply exploring their interests, I love encouraging curiosity, creativity, and confidence. I also believe in helping children develop independence through age-appropriate responsibilities, kindness, and respect. Beyond childcare, I’m happy to help families with children’s meals, homework, transportation to activities, organizing playdates, light housekeeping related to the children, and keeping daily routines running smoothly. Communication with parents is very important to me, and I always want you to feel informed and confident that your children are in good hands. As a mom, I understand that every family is different. I take the time to learn each child’s personality, routines, and needs so they feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. My goal is not simply to supervise children, but to become a positive, reliable presence in their lives and a trusted support for their parents. If you’re looking for someone who is experienced, dependable, loving, and truly enjoys helping children grow, I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family. I look forward to hearing about your children and discussing how I can help make your family’s daily life a little easier. Thank you for considering me, and I hope to meet you soon!

Valeska is a great babysitter! She is very interactive with my child! Taking her on walks, playing with her and giving her lots of love! She really focuses on your little one, and never seems distracted. I trust her completely with my daughter!! Not only is she great with the baby, but she also helps me around the house. Making food, doing the dishes, and helping with a little office work. She truly is a dream to have! We love you, V!

Rhonda was our first and only nanny! She is amazing and we consider her a part of our family. Rhonda started nannying our son when he was 9 months old until he was 20 months when he started going to preschool. Rhonda's background in child education assured us that our son was learning as well as having fun. We were always amazed at what he knew and what she was teaching him. Rhonda is also very patient, loving and kind and we trust her fully with taking care of our son. Our fun always had a great time with her and we were very sad when her last day came. We can't say enough about how much we've enjoyed having her as a part of our life. We would highly recommend Rhonda to love and care for your child!

I am a mother of two teenage boys, so have been parenting for about 15 years. Prior to becoming a mother, I was a nanny for many years while in college and graduate school and a babysitter while in middle and high school. I have CPR and 1St Aid Certifications and am highly experienced with dealing with any issues that may arise while caring for infants, young children, tweens and teens. I love supporting kids to play and learn from experiences (games, crafts, sports) but am also ready to support homework and school assignments. I am comfortable with all kinds of pets and happy to feed them or take them for walks. I take family rules seriously and will work with the children to make sure that tasks and chores are completed when required.

My kids loved Jennifer and ask for her to come back often! She not only was wonderful with the children, playing games througout the day, taking them on field trips and reading them stories. She also organized the kids bedroom without being asked! If I could give 10 stars I would!
