Tammy
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children across the entire spectrum—from nursery and Pre-K to K–12, before- and after-care programs, summer camps, classroom support, children’s ministry, and more. I’ve also had the privilege of working with children with autism and what I like to call “varied abilities and skillsets.” I believe every child is wonderfully unique and, sometimes, simply needs a little additional patience, understanding, encouragement, and assistance to thrive. My passion for children has also taken me beyond my own community and into different parts of the world. During a month-long mission trip to South Africa, I had the opportunity to teach English, coach sports, and document my experience through social media. That experience opened my eyes to the very real needs of children around the world. That experience taught me something I carry with me today: use what you have to help who you can. Whether that means teaching, encouraging, creating opportunities, lending a helping hand, or simply being a safe and positive presence in a child's life, I believe our resources, skills, and experiences are meant to be stewarded well. And sometimes, serving children doesn’t require traveling across the world. Sometimes, it simply means being right where your feet are—which, in my case, might just be your home, right here in the heart of the DMV.

Gabrielle
Caring for kids has always been a big part of my life. I grew up as the oldest of four, so nurturing and supporting little ones comes naturally to me. I’ve spent over five years working in youth development, served in my church’s kids ministry, and volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters throughout college—continuing my mentor relationship even after graduating. I love creating safe, fun, and meaningful experiences for children, and families can count on me to bring patience, responsibility, and joy to every interaction.

Parris
Hi! My name is Parris, I’m 19 years old, and I truly love working with kids. Being a sitter isn’t just something I do, it’s something I genuinely enjoy because I love creating a safe, fun, and caring environment where children can feel comfortable and happy. I have a strong background in childcare from both personal and professional experience. I worked as a party host at a laser tag center, where I was responsible for managing groups of kids, keeping them engaged, and making sure everyone had a great time. I’m also the go-to babysitter in my family, trusted by relatives to care for their children regularly. Growing up with 8 siblings has given me a lot of hands-on experience with kids of all ages, and it’s taught me patience, responsibility, and how to handle different personalities with ease. I’m reliable, attentive, and great at keeping kids entertained while also making sure they’re safe and well cared for. Whether it’s helping with routines, playing games, or just being someone they can trust, I always bring a positive and nurturing energy. I look forward to meeting your family and providing care you can feel confident about! 😊
