I just moved up here from Virginia Beach to Fairfax to finish my studies at George Mason University. I’m a biology major who loves all things outdoors and creepy crawly insects. I worked as a substitute teacher back home and previously was a nanny for about 3 years. I love kids and being goofy, end goal is potentially a biology teacher!

Hello, My name is Annelies and I look forward to having the opportunity to take care your child! I haven’t been babysitting for a super long time but I have experience working with kids, such as spending time in a summer music camp, and being a girl scout working with younger scouts for 2 years. I’ve had experience with kids of all ages, especially since I work in a bowling alley as a part time job, which requires me to know how to interact with guests of a young age. I also have experience playing with/watching my neighbors kids and taking care of toddlers and young babies such as my second cousins. My current major in collegeis secondary/elementary education and so I am taking this opportunity to continue to nurture that career path. I love the outdoors and arts and crafts which I think are great learning opprutunities for kids and totally something I would offer as an experience to your child! I also have been trained in CPR for both adults and babies as of 2025 through my highschool. Thank you for your time in reading this, and I hope that you find I am a good fit to take care of your child!

Hi ! I'm a rising college freshman who is actively looking for a fun and flexible job before the start of the school year. Babysitting is something I'm interested in as I have years of experience from taking care of my little sister and cousins. I really enjoy being around kids and I believe I get along with them pretty well. I can do basic child care but I'm alwayswilling to learn more.

Hi, I'm Miles! I've been babysitting professionally about 5 years now and have experience with kids of all ages and needs! I have 3 younger brothers, who have taught me many of the trials and joys of caring for children. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, organizing, entertaining, and any other tasks that may come with the job. I love to spend time outside in the sun, and enjoy the company of pets. I look forward to learning a childs personality and quirks, and buildingprofessional relationships with parents!

I have babysat for the ages 1-10. At varying times of day (morning, lunchtime, dinner/bedtime)I have a lot of younger cousins (aged 2-11 currently) so I’ve babysat them a lot, having up to 5 kids at once. I’ve worked in PWCS as a summer intern with elementary aged students for two summers. From 2023-2025 I was a summer camp counselor at a dance studio/playground called All That and Jazz. With another counselor we would have groups of 15-25 kids ages varying 5-12 years old.
