Marilyn 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

My deepest foundation in caregiving was forged at home, where I grew up taking on the vital role of caring for my younger sister with Down Syndrome. This experience instilled in me an unparalleled level of patience, personalized attention, and advocacy. My commitment to the special needs community continued as I later served on the board for a local Special Olympics chapter, championing inclusion and well-being. From that beginning, I became the trusted caregiver for my community. I have been babysitting my whole life, recently stepping up for an extended, crucial four-day period (including overnights) for two young children under 10, ensuring their mother had a restorative break. My expertise truly shines in infant care: I spent four months as a dedicated live-in nanny. I volunteered for over three years, specializing in the care and development of babies from newborn to one year old. I approach every child with confidence, competence, and joy. I am happy to provide glowing references that attest to my reliability and the genuine positive impact I've had on families. I am eager to bring my lifetime of dedicated, motivational care to your family!

“Marilyn is a wonderful babysitter. She watched both of our new babies when they were born and as toddlers. She is so so sweet with kids and an absolute natural especially with babies. She loves children and is so tender-hearted with them. She is a joy to be around and her sweet and bubbly personality definitely rubs off on the kids.”

Booked by 2 families in Lanham, MD

Hi! My name is Princess Ann, and I’m a passionate, reliable, and experienced childcare provider who truly loves helping children learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing environment. For the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children of all ages. During my time at The Little Gym on Capitol Hill, I enjoyed helping toddlers build confidence, strengthen their gross motor skills, and discover the joy of learning through movement and play. My experience has allowed me to develop a strong foundation in early childhood education, including social-emotional development, language and literacy, fine and gross motor skills, cognitive development, and hands-on learning through creative and outdoor activities. I strive to create a positive, engaging environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to explore the world around them. Whether we’re reading stories, completing fun educational activities, spending time outdoors, or following daily routines, I believe every moment is an opportunity to learn and grow. Building trusting, lasting relationships with families is something I value deeply. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving parents peace of mind and helping every child reach their full potential. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become a positive part of your child’s journey. I look forward to connecting with you soon!

“Princes’Ann is a great sitter! She provided care four our 4 year old for two days while we had to work. She was awesome, a great communicator, and our 4 year old now wants her to babysit all the time!”

"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."
