I'm currently a Junior student in High School, however I’ve worked with children in different settings, from summer camps to parties, and I’ve learned how to balance fun with responsibility. In my job with Buster da Clown and Friends, I got to dress up in character costumes, interact with kids, and help serve snacks. As a Junior Camp Counselor with the KRoussaw Foundation, I helped with arts and crafts, supervised games, and joined kids on field trips.

Reliable Babysitter | 5+ Years Experience | Honors Child Psychology Student at Howard University

Hi! My name is Danya, and I have over 5 years of experience caring for children from newborns to 13 years old. I’m currently a Psychology major at Howard University, studying child development with plans to become a child psychologist. Babysitting has always been more than just a job for me, I love building connections, planning fun activities, and making sure kids feel safe, happy, and cared for. From organizing playtime and helping with meals to supporting routines and homework, I bring patience, energy, and responsibility to every family I work with. If you’re looking for someone dependable who truly enjoys spending time with kids, I’d be excited to be that person for your family!

I have over 5 years of childcare experience, working with children ranging from newborns to age 13.

My responsibilities have included preparing meals, organizing playtime and activities, helping with homework, and keeping children on safe routines.

Currently, I’m a student at Howard University, majoring in Psychology with a focus on children and development. My academic background has strengthened my understanding of child behavior, communication, and emotional needs, which I apply when babysitting. In addition, my leadership roles in school and community service projects have taught me responsibility, creativity, and how to keep kids engaged in safe, enjoyable ways.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Valentine's Day Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a Valentine's Day babysitter so you can enjoy a romantic evening while knowing your kids are in safe hands.

1. Book early

Valentine’s Day is a high-demand night for babysitters, so secure someone well in advance.

2. Expect holiday rates

Babysitters often charge extra for special occasions, so budget for a premium.

3. Choose someone trusted

Go with a sitter your kids already know, or someone with strong references if it’s their first time.

4. Confirm late-night availability

Make sure the sitter is comfortable staying until your return, even if it’s late.

5. Share bedtime routines

Provide clear instructions for dinner, storytime, and bedtime so the evening runs smoothly.

6. Leave fun activities

Stock up on games, crafts, or a movie to keep the kids entertained while you’re out.

7. Plan a simple dinner for kids

Prepare or order something easy the babysitter can serve without stress.

8. Leave emergency contacts

Give them your number, backup contacts, and any medical details they might need.

9. Set house rules

Be clear on snacks, screen time, and bedtime flexibility.

10. Show appreciation

Since they’re working on a date night, consider a bonus, chocolates, or a thank-you note.

See our parents' guide to Valentine's Day babysitting for more detailed information.
