Hi! I used to be an au pair and I have experience caring for children and supporting families with daily routines. I’m responsible, patient, organized, and enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for kids. I speak both Spanish and English and I’m comfortable driving when transportation is needed. I can help with activities, meal preparation, routines, and light household tasks related to children. I love building meaningful relationships with children and helping them learn and grow while giving parents reliable support.

Booked by 38 families in Mechanicsville, MD

Hey I’m Martina, I can’t wait to help out your family! I am a first born girl with 3 siblings. I grew up in an extended family, with cousins, nieces and nephews who I took care of as well. One of my nephews was non-verbal growing up, so I have experience in that field as I took care of him. My love for kids inspired me to work in a daycare for 3 years until I had to join full-time college and instead resorted to babysitting gigs. In the past year, I was babysitting for those I knew, but would like to step out there and help out new people. I love introducing children to new concepts and ideas of art, language, social and emotional skills all through open ended play. I love watching children learn and discover through play. I love to clean and cook, so I would love to help out with household services if needed. I have experience with interacting with people from different backgrounds and cultures, so that makes me easily get along with anyone. My friends call me loyal and trustworthy. I am a problem solver, I have great vibes and most importantly, kids love me too and love interacting with me. I am also hygienic and health conscious. I hope to hear from you soon and help to support your family with care.

“She’s the best! Such a calming demeanor, and yet very engaging. She was responsive with scheduling, punctual and professional, and super down to earth. My daughter actually cried when she left. We don’t get out much, but I’m honestly considering scheduling something just so she can come back. ”

Booked by 2 families in Mechanicsville, MD

My name is Ashley, and I’m 34 years old. I have five years of experience working at a daycare, where I cared for children of all ages. Even before that, my passion for childcare began in my teenage years—I regularly babysat for neighbors, my mom’s friends, and of course, my own younger siblings. Coming from a big family, I naturally took on the role of caregiver, which sparked my love for working with children.

"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."
