Hi! I’m a dependable, loving, and attentive sitter. I have taken care of all ages ranging from infants to preteens. Ever since I was able to stay home and take care of my brothers is when I started my love for child care. I’ve been a sitter/nanny for 3 years now but have been taking care of family members for 9 years.I also do house and pet sitting! I pride myself on being reliable and kind. I have an open availability, before school/after school care, weekends/date nights, full time/part time

Hi! My name is Juliana. I am a passionate and nurturing babysitter. I am currently in Fairfax and a full-time student at George Mason University, where I balance my studies with my genuine love for working with children and supporting families. I am PCA-certified (Personal Care Aide), which allows me to safely provide attentive care for children who may need additional medical or personal support. I have experience caring for newborns, toddlers, and primary school-aged children, and I take pride in creating a warm, positive environment where kids feel safe, confident, and free to be themselves. As a reliable live-out nanny, I offer flexible, part-time services tailored to your family’s unique schedule and needs. My hourly rate starts at $20, depending on the child’s age, hours, and level of care required. Whether it’s engaging playtime, story time, or homework help, I strive to make every moment both fun and meaningful. I believe every child deserves patience, kindness, and encouragement, and I’m committed to making sure your little ones feel happy, supported, and well cared for. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter who will treat your child with genuine care and attention, I would love to connect and see how I can support your family.

I have been working with infants and children for the last 10 years and I also have three children of my own. I have my Associate's degree in Psychology and I am continuing my education in hopes to become an Adolescent Clinical Therapist. I am also CPR and First Aid Certified. I love working with kids on a personal level by learning their personality. I use a hands-on approach to gain the trust of both parent and child. Providing childcare isn't just a job, it's accepting to play a large role in a child's life and help guide them as they grow and develop. I love fun and smiles but I also like to promote educational activities appropriate to the child's age (for example going over the alphabet or doing puzzles with a toddler, or practicing tummy time with an infant!) I strive to become not only their babysitter, but one of their best friends. I have a genuine love and passion for kids and I have realized this is my life's calling. I think that providing childcare would be the best job for me while I am continuing my education because it's doing what I love, working in the direction I plan to go with my career and also allows me to keep my son with me while I work, which gives him the opportunity to interact with other children. I have excellent writing and verbal skills, my specialty is drawing and arts & crafts, skilled hider, below average seeker, animal lover, excellent board game player, excellent story time reader and swing pusher, great at cuddling and I know the tickle monster very well, excellent boo-boo kisser, and I may not be the best singer or dancer but that doesn't stop me from putting on a show. I don't mind embarrassing myself for a laugh (well for the kids at least)! It's so easy to make them smile and I absolutely love doing it.

We are a military family and with constant moving is hard to find reliable help. Kaitlyn was great from day one. We have 4 kids and our kids love her. My toddler looks forward to her. She’s comfortable around children and has a charismatic personality. We highly recommend her. She’s been great to have.

Hi, I’m Sarina. I’m a Marine Corps veteran and Psychology student with several years of hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers. Over the past two years, I’ve worked long-term with two families, primarily caring for children between 6 months and 3 years old. My current position is ending due to the family relocating, and I will be available beginning March 2. I’m confident with infant and toddler routines, including sleep schedules, meal prep, developmental play, outdoor time, and maintaining calm, structured days that help little ones thrive. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment. Families describe me as reliable, communicative, and proactive. I take pride in supporting not only the children, but the overall flow of the household when needed. I’m seeking a position starting in early March and would love to connect to see if we’re a good fit.

Sarina nannied for us for just over one year. She took care of our now 1.5 year old daughter. Sarina took excellent care of our daughter and paid attention to her ever changing needs. She was super patient daily. Our daughter would get so happy and excited to see Sarina come through our door. Some days it was even hard for our daughter to say goodbye to her. I can’t say enough great things about Sarina. She just fit right in to our life, was always flexible with our schedule and listened to all of our needs. Your kids will be more than happy and well cared for with her!

I’m a dedicated and nurturing caregiver with a strong passion for working with infants. I focus on creating a safe, comforting environment where babies can grow, develop, and feel secure. Certified in First Aid and CPR, I prioritize their safety at all times. I also build strong relationships with both the infants and their families, offering individualized care that meets each child’s needs. My goal is to provide a calm and loving atmosphere where they feel supported and cherished. As my native language is Spanish, I can introduce babies to the language early on, which is a wonderful added benefit for families interested in bilingual exposure.

We cannot recommend Montse highly enough! From the very first time she cared for our children, we knew we had found someone truly special. She is not only incredibly clean and tidy but also has a natural warmth and kindness that immediately put both us and our children at ease. Her flexibility and excellent communication made any scheduling changes easy, and she always kept us informed about our kids’ activities and well-being. What truly sets her apart is her dedication to engaging and educating our children. She incorporated Montessori-style learning into their play, encouraging independence, curiosity, and creativity. Montse has the most patient, calm, and supportive demeanor. She treats our children as if they were her own. Knowing they are in her hands gives us complete peace of mind—we have never once worried about their safety or happiness when she is with them. Anyone looking for an exceptional babysitter would be truly missing out if they didn’t consider Montse. She is a rare gem, and we feel so fortunate to have had her in our children’s lives!

I am ambitious and creative but disciplined and hardworking. I absolutely love working with children and planning such fun activities while we wait for you to come home! One thing about me that sets me apart from others is that I will not just sit your child in front of the TV. Everyday will be fun filled and something to look forward too!

Hi, I’m Grace! I am a young professional who is looking for childcare jobs! I graduated UVA nursing school in 2023 and have worked as a mother baby nurse since caring for newborns and their mothers! In addition to my infant care experience, I have years of childcare experience as well! I have a sister with a thirteen year age gap, and she was my first exposure to how much I loved caring for children and helping my parents! I then went on to nanny and babysit for children of all ages and developmental stages from 8 months old to 11 years old. I am well suited to adapt to fit the needs of any child and family! I am comfortable with pets, CPR certified, and have my own transportation too. I am a responsible, caring, and kind caregiver; I hope you will consider me to care for your child/children!

Hello! I have seven years of experience. I’ve been a nursery/elementary Sunday school teacher for five years. I took on the youth leader position and dealt with children of all ages. I have been babysitting for various families for the last four years. I have been nannying for four years, my jobs usually lasting 2 years! In high school I worked in the elementary school in the special education department. I love children, I love to work with them, and keep them entertained. I have plenty of experience with infants, and helping new mothers. I don’t mind giving time for the parent to get rest.
