Asuma Gunpowder
$30 per hour for 1 child

About Asuma Hi! My name is Asuma and I am currently a neuroscience research technician and a member of the U.S. Army Reserves. I offer childcare, tutoring, and household support services. Caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. As the oldest daughter in a large family and a mother to an amazing teenager, I grew up helping care for younger siblings and relatives. I also have over 11 years of experience caring for children ranging from infants to teenagers. In addition to childcare, I provide tutoring for students from elementary school through college in subjects such as math, biology, and chemistry. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biology with a minor in Mathematics and enjoy helping students build confidence in learning and problem-solving. My childcare responsibilities have included helping with homework, preparing meals, creative activities, transportation, and maintaining a structured and safe environment for children. I enjoy encouraging curiosity through reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and fun learning moments. I speak four languages and have reading knowledge of two others, which has helped me connect with families from diverse backgrounds. Outside of work, I enjoy bike rides in nature, cooking and experimenting with recipes, volunteering with community organizations, and continuing my training as a beginner in Taekwondo. Families often describe me as dependable, calm, and attentive. I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. While I don’t yet have extensive experience caring for pets, I am open to learning as long as safety is prioritized.

$18 per hour for 1 child

I’m looking for a job taking care of 1 or 2 children during the week (plus Saturday if needed but preferably just working weekdays). I was a nanny for 2 children, almost 2 and 4. We spent our mornings playing, going to the park, reading, and doing crafts. Both parents work from home, so we all had lunch together and then put the children to nap, after nap they get a healthy snack and we play some more! I started this job when they were 6 months and 1 and a half in the summer of 2024. I just finished up my last day on Halloween, so I am looking to start work asap if possible (although not required, I would be willing to find something else for the time being until ready for me to start) Before I was a nanny, I worked at a before/after school daycare, plus a summer camp run by the same company. We would play, set up different toys every day, do crafts, get healthy snacks, and go outside when the weather was alright. At summer camp we mostly spent the whole day outside. There was a tree fort, pool days, hiking, sports, crafts, biking, etc! There were special weekly events where we went to the arcade, roller skating, and ice skating. There were children preschool to freshman year of high school at the summer camp. I have also worked as a cashier, online order picker/packer, and busser, so I have experience with cleaning tasks as well.

Booked by 4 families in Gunpowder, MD

Hello, my name is Wunmi, and I'm delighted to meet you! I'm new to the region and looking for my next babysitting job with a great family. I’m a kind, compassionate and trustworthy individual with a heart for children. I enjoy spending time with children because I adore seeing the world through their eyes. My child care experience spans all age groups, from infancy to adolescence. Activities done with children depend on their age and interests, some examples include playing in the park, hiking, singing, painting, and visiting the farm. I prefer to keep them engaged in order to keep their screen time to a minimum. When caring for a child, I also make an effort to put my phone away as much as possible so that I can give them my undivided attention. I’m looking forward to finding the next family that I’ll be working with both short and long-term. It’s important that we both feel we’re the right match for one another, so I appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon. My references are available upon request.

"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."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
