$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Gaithersburg, MD

Hi! I’m a reliable, patient, and experienced caregiver with experience working with children of all ages, including multiple kids at once. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, structured, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable and heard. I can help with meal prep, homework support, light housekeeping, bedtime routines, and engaging activities like crafts, games, and outdoor play. I’m very independent, attentive, and great at following family routines while keeping things calm and organized. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your children, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’d love to support your family!

“Julianna was great with my two girls. She gave them her undivided attention and was constantly interacting with them. My girls had so much fun with her and she took them outside daily when the weather was appropriate.”

Hello~ My name is MJ, and thank you so much for considering me as a caregiver to your family! I am based in Montgomery County, MD and I have listed my educational background and career for your review - - _________________________________________ Education (High School and College) Thomas Wootton High School 12' Montgomery College 14' (Associate's Degree) University of Baltimore 17' (Bachelor of Science) Career Background Commercial Real Estate (MD/CA) Signed Music Artist in Florida __________________________________________ As a caregiver, I primarily work with parents that need childcare after school, and I have listed different ways I utilize time with children to complete homework and engage in activities that will encourage a healthy balance between work and play! Based on the parents' preferences with how they would like their children to complete tasks/activities, I then cater the preferences with a light schedule such as: 1.) Decompressing after school 30~45 minutes 2.) Work on homework and any school-related projects 3.) Reading/Non-Screen time activities 4.) Upon parents' preferences, allowing screen time 5.) Food servicing/light cleaning based on parents' preferences _____________________________________________ Why I chose UrbanSitter as a caregiver: Personally, I like the strong standard in regards to caretakers having their background checked while also being able to communicate transparently with families prior to starting any job. I personally believe in meeting the family before any caretaking job after, having an introduction via UrbanSitter's platform first for the family comfort, alongside any professional references the families need from me, to properly screen me before moving forward to working I prioritize communication and servicing families based on standards and functionalities defined, by the parents to then support the needs of caretaking as an assistant, and also echoing what the parents would like from me 110% I will be more than happy to provide my resume // referrals upon request, thank you so much for your time and consideration!

Booked by 4 families in Gaithersburg, MD

Caring and enthusiastic grandmother with so many years of experience raising all my grandchildren. I am patient, adaptable and comfortable supervising more than one kid and hoping to better take advantage of my skill set in a hands-on care taking role. Also, I am an impeccable cook and willing to do that as well. I speak Farsi as a first language and understand English well, but my speaking skills are at an intermediate level. I hold a CPR and First Aid Certification

“Ms. Touran has been wonderful with our newborn! I was at first hesitant to have a babysitter over for a newborn baby, but Ms. Touran was very experienced and trustworthy. I got my much-needed rest while she took care of the baby. I will definitely book her again! ☺”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
