Catherine Wilkins Experienced, Caring Sitter Based in Navy Yard (SE DC)
Hello, Washington, D.C. parents!
Catherine here! A warm, seasoned professional based right in the heart of Navy Yard, just steps from the Navy Yard Ballpark Metro station. I'm centrally located to all of the DMV and within easy reach of the National Cathedral, Arena Stage, MGM, and Nationals Park. At 54, I bring not only life experience but also genuine hands-on wisdom, and I know firsthand what it means to show up with patience, structure, and heart.
Babies - I love helping build early motor skills through guided play and using Baby Can Read books/videos to encourage early language and reading exposure. With school-age children - homework aid, manage or meal prep, structured afternoons that may include outdoor playtime, museum trips in the DMV, and board games.
Seeking patient support, engaging activities, or someone who simply shows up reliably and kindly, I'm the kind of sitter you want in your home.

Babysitter Available in Washington, DC: Maria B.
Coming from a large family with four older siblings and over 30 first cousins, I have always been surrounded by children. Whether spending time with my siblings’ children or helping care for younger cousins, working with kids has always come naturally to me. Toward the end of middle school, I began babysitting for families in my neighborhood. Through word of mouth, I quickly built relationships with multiple families and gained experience caring for children of different ages and personalities.
What families appreciate most about me is that I actively engage with the children rather than simply supervise them. I enjoy creating scavenger hunts, playing imaginative games, swimming, and encouraging creativity through hands-on activities. I strive to limit screen time and focus on building meaningful relationships with the children I care for. Babysitting and nannying have been my primary jobs for years, making it a field where I feel both confident and passionate.
