Hi! My name is Ana and I’m from Burke, Virginia. I am currently a student at Florida State University, home for summer break with a really flexible schedule! I absolutely love working with kids and I have been babysitting since I was 15! I have experience working with children of a wide variety of ages. In high school, I worked as an assistant teacher at a pre-school, assisting in classrooms primarily with ages 2-5. I have also volunteered at Fort Belvoir Elementary School for the past four summers with their summer camp program, during which I got to work with kids from kindergarten up to fifth grade! I will be home from mid May through Mid August and am available on short notice. I also have a car and am able to do any transportation needed. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

Hi, I’m Phoebe! If there’s one thing everyone knows about me, it’s my deep love for children and my dedication to helping them grow into confident, independent, and joyful individuals. I believe that truly exceptional child care starts with creating a space where every child feels safe, seen, and free to be themselves. From there, I focus on guiding them toward independence, encouraging their unique personalities, and supporting their growth with warmth, patience, and purpose.I bring years of hands-on experience both as a trusted nanny for families and as an early childhood educator at Bright Horizons. In these roles, I have supported everything from daily home routines and household maintenance to curriculum planning, potty training, and early speech development. Through my position at Bright Horizons, I completed rigorous training in child safety, brain development, curriculum design, and early education. This has given me a strong foundation not only in caregiving but also in nurturing each child's growth with intention and care. Whether I am working one-on-one in a home or supporting a group in a classroom, my focus is always the same: creating a safe, nurturing space where children feel confident to be themselves while developing independence and essential life skills.

I am fluent in both English and Spanish. I have been an elementary school teacher for over 7 years now.

Hello Parents, I am a 35 years old and have been working with children since I was 14. I have experience as a nanny, house manager, personal assistant, babysitter, house sitter and pet sitter. I am the oldest of six children and have experience with special needs, food and drug allergies. I specialize in infants and toddlers and take a special interest in children with anxiety. I have worked for several families long term as well as on call, part time, and date nights. My favorite thing about watching children is watching them grow, learn and discover new and great things about the world around them. I believe that routine is very important when it comes to raising children and having a regular caregiver that knows them, their habits, their likes and dislikes makes a huge difference! I am comfortable with homework help, drop off and pick up, taking children to activities as well as inventing activities, potty training, feeding, cooking, cleaning, laundry and more. In addition to this I am also featured on the Sittercity activities blog! I very much look forward to hearing from you!

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel cared for in a safe and positive environment. I’ve always valued building meaningful connections, and working with kids allows me to bring patience, creativity, and empathy into each day. I love creating calm, structured environments where kids can feel safe and have fun! I have professional experience supporting individuals with different needs through my work as a Direct Support Professional, which required a lot of patience, communication, and responsibility — skills that translate very well into childcare. Outside of that, I’ve helped care for younger relatives and family friends’ children, handling routines like meals, playtime, and bedtime. I’m comfortable creating engaging, age-appropriate activities and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I’m trained in providing direct care and support, including de-escalation, active listening, maintaining safety, and medication administration . I’m also very organized and attentive, which helps with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. My experience as a DSP helped me build strong communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I also have my CPR and First Aid certification.
