We had Ayling come watch our two boys (1 and 7). She brought over an activity bag and was fun and engaging. Her communication with us was excellent the whole time and we had a wonderful evening out without having to worry. Would highly recommend!

Why do you love being a sitter? I truly love being a sitter because I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. Being part of their daily development, helping them build confidence, and creating meaningful connections with families is incredibly rewarding to me. I love bringing patience, creativity, structure, and warmth into every child’s routine. What experience do you have? I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-age children through nanny positions, babysitting, and childcare programs. I currently work with families in the Arlington and Washington DC area, helping with daily routines, feeding schedules, naps, educational activities, bedtime routines, and emotional development. I also support families with light housekeeping, meal preparation, organization, and creating structured routines for children. What skills and training do you have? I am currently completing my CDA (Child Development Associate) certification and have training in child development, safety, healthy routines, and age-appropriate activities. I am experienced with infant care, sleep routines, potty training support, Montessori-inspired activities, positive guidance, and developmental play. I am also part of the temporary division of White House Nannies, which has strengthened my professional childcare experience and family support skills.

Our wonderful Wendy worked with our family as a part time nanny, but in truth she became so much more than that. She was a vital part of our daily lives. She was truly exceptional in every way, going above and beyond in everything she did. Her main responsibility was picking up our children from school and getting them to their activities, and we always had COMPLETE peace of mind knowing they were with her. She is an incredibly responsible and attentive driver, but more importantly, she always made our children’s safety and comfort her top priority. Beyond being remarkably reliable and organized, what makes Wendy truly special is the warmth and light she brings into a home. She had a natural gift for connecting with our children, balancing a fun with the structure and consistency they needed and was always interested in keeping us on the loop with new ways on how to improve our routines. We are deeply grateful for the care and heart she put into her time with us. We would love to have her back at any point in the future, in fact, she is the very first person we would call if our family grows or if our needs change. We recommend our dear Wendy with all our heart, any family would be INCREDIBLY lucky to have her ❤️

Hi Moms and Dads thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Sherry living in Gaithersburg Md. I have worked as a babysitter /nanny for over 40yrs. I worked for family's all over Montgomery County . I have work with preemies, new-born, toddlers and school age children. I have had experience with down syndrome children and one that requires a feeding tube. As a nanny I want your child/children to know that I am there to keep them safe and give love while their parents work. I will protect them as if they are my own. I read, sing song, go out, do craft and get down on the floor, and play. I enjoy going to story time and other activities. Sorry, I don't do public pools. I have travel with my family's to other states. I even travel to Spain with one of my family and stayed for 2months. I also do short term jobs and long term. My last family I was with for 3 years. I try to to support my family's as much as I can, whether it's a emergency or something else. I like to build a bond with the kids that I take care of so they feel safe and love at all times. Yes this is a job but how can you spend time with beautiful kids and not love on them. I do have my own car seats less then 2yrs old and kept clean. They are Graco.

We have been extremely happy with Sherry, and highly recommend her. She works with our family on a regular basis and cares for our three young children. She is consistently reliable, responsible, and genuinely caring. Sherry is warm and attentive with the kids, engages them in age-appropriate activities, and creates a calm, safe, and nurturing environment. She communicates clearly, follows instructions well, and shows good judgment and initiative when caring for multiple young children. Our kids are happy and comfortable with her, which gives us great peace of mind. She has become a trusted and valued part of our routine, and we would confidently recommend her to any family looking for a dependable and thoughtful caregiver.

Clifford did a wonderful job with my infant son. My mom, who is a retired nurse, was around to observe and said he did the best job out of multiple sitters we have had. Punctual, responsive, sweet and completely reliable.

I was a babysitter for my extended family and neighbors during my teenage years and as a college graduate. I continued babysitting through graduate school (for education and counseling)and into my early adult years. Even now, as an adult, I still enjoy babysitting because I love children. I have been a teacher in early childhood and elementary schools, as well as a summer camp counselor and director, for many years. As a result of my job in education, I have undergone and cleared several criminal background checks. I am certified in First Aid and CPR, and I have my own car. I enjoy doing schoolwork, participating in sports, playing games, and engaging in arts and crafts with children. I enjoy being positive, creative, and engaging with kids because they have wonderful imaginations, and I love having fun with them. I try to teach children a great deal, but I also always learn a great deal from them! It's always a win-win situation.

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!

Hello! I am a student at Northern Virginia Community College pursuing a nursing track. My hopes are to later become a nurse midwife. Before Covid-19, I was a preschool teacher but I am currently looking to provide more individualized work. My experience ranges from daycare, gym child watch, individual babysitting, and summer camps. With that being said, I'm able to provide many references! I am infant/child first-aid and CPR certified. In addition, I am a birth and postpartum Doula who can help with overnights . I'd love to be able to work with families looking for a last-minute baby sitter or a date-night sitter. I'm also available to do school pick-ups and drop-offs! ! I love planning activities with the kids such as cookie decorating, movie nights, sensory play etc. I'm flexible with rates and take into consideration the needs of each family. My goal is to insure that children actually have fun while the parents are away. I look forward to working with children of all ages and backgrounds!

I am a senior at American University majoring in Data Science with a minor in Computer Science. I am currently based in Bethesda, finishing my last semester at AU this fall, and I am looking for part-time babysitting or nannying work. I have 10 years of babysitting experience. I have babysat for over 20 families in Nashville, New York City, and Washington, DC. I have babysat for single families with 2-3 children aged between 3 months to 9 years old, and I have done formal, weekly childcare for churches where I supervised groups of kids aged 1-year-old to 12 years. Typically, my tasks included picking up and dropping off from school and after-school activities, aiding the elementary school-aged children with homework, entertaining the kids, changing diapers, cooking nourishing meals, and encouraging good behaviors using positive reinforcement. In single-family settings, I can also provide light housekeeping work such as cleaning and doing laundry. Outside of school and babysitting, I love reading, spending time with my puppy Mila, and writing songs. I have self-released two albums and have toured nationally with several bands. I am able to provide guitar and bass lessons for beginner to intermediate players. I am excited about the opportunity to work with you, and I am happy to provide references from my previous clients.
