Judy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Judy. I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children of various ages. I am CPR certified and have completed college-level coursework in child development. I also spent two years as a teacher's assistant at a Montessori school, where I supported children's learning through hands-on activities and individualized attention in a nurturing environment. In my caregiving role, I incorporate early learning into daily routines to help prepare children for school. Using Montessori-inspired methods, I encourage independence, confidence, and curiosity through age-appropriate lessons in language, math, practical life skills, and sensory play. I regularly introduce books, educational materials, and creative activities based on each child's developmental stage and interests. I also value outdoor time and social engagement, often planning outings to playgrounds, libraries, music classes, and museums (weather permitting). I believe in creating a calm, stimulating, and safe space that supports both learning and joy. I bring a strong work ethic, flexibility, and a collaborative approach to every family I work with. I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping, including dishes, family laundry, and keeping shared spaces tidy.

Hello Families, My name is Eboni and I’m 31 years old. I’ve been babysitting and working with kids since I was 14 years old. I’ve use urbansitter in the years of 2[removed] and took a break to travel and focus on my career in the government. I wanted to come back because I’ve seen that with the events of things going on in the world I know that moms and dads need much needed breaks and resets. I love spending time with the kiddos and I also don’t mind tending to your pets, plants, doing household chores and even cooking dinner or helping with meal prep.

Booked by 19 families in Lanham, MD

*Primarily interested in work in the Capitol Hill area* I have spent the past twelve years nannying full time for kids ranging from newborn-13 year (specializing in infant and toddler care). Prior to nannying I taught acting classes for preschool aged children for three years. I love to do creative things with the kids I sit for including visual art, dance, and imaginative play. I'm also a big fan of the outdoors. I enjoy it when the children in my care share with me the interests that make them excited!

"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."

"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."
