Booked by 5 families in Lanham, 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.

Booked by 2 families in Lanham, MD

Hi there! I am a 23 year old female student who is very passionate about working with children and animals. I recently moved back to Massachusetts to return to school. I have 5+ years of experience working with children as a babysitter, and have also held positions as a camp counsellor at both day and overnight camps. I am comfortable babysitting multiple children at a time, helping with schoolwork, household chores, cooking, and pet care. I, myself, have dog sat and been the owner of multiple small animals. I am patient, outgoing, talkative, easy going, and I like to have fun while still being able to ensure that children follow rules and get tasks done. I have been certified in CPR and lifesaving, and did partake in a babysitting course during my youth, but would be happy to have all of these certifications updated. I was also certified as an EMT during college, which has since lapsed but left me with many useful skills.

Greetings! My name is Alice. I am a recently retired Early Childhood Teacher. I am energetic and feel blessed that I have had the opportunity to work with young children and their families.

"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."
