Robyn $19 per hour for 1 child

Thank you for considering me for your family's care. My name is Robyn, and I'm new to Urbansitter, but not to caregiving. I have 9 nieces and nephews and have babysat for them, as well as family friends for several years. I am also a mother to an active and intelligent toddler. I enjoy creating opportunities to learn and to have fun, both indoors and outdoors when available. In addition, I have experience in eldercare, and a passion for seniors. I engage in community programs that promote physical and mental health for seniors. I have also been responsible for the care of three seniors, where my responsibilities include occupational tasks such as feeding, clothing, comfort care, and assisting with transportation needs. As a mother and caregiver, I know what it means to have a reliable source who can assist with your family's needs and to provide some relief. I am happy to be that source for you and your family, and I look forward to working with you! Note: I am allergic to pet dander.

Deja $31 per hour for 1 child

My name is Déja, and I have accumulated substantial experience in child development and education. Having worked at several NAEYC-accredited Child Development Centers, I have garnered valuable expertise in this field. I spent 5 years at a Child Development Center, 3 1/2 of which I served as a permanent assistant teacher before progressing to the roles of Lead Teacher for both the toddler and infant programs. I successfully completed my AA in Early Childhood Education in June 2023 and plan to further my education by pursuing a bachelor's degree. In addition to my center-based experience, I also provided dedicated nanny services to a family from May 2019 to February 2023. Following this, I assumed the position of Infant Lead Teacher at Kindercare Companies in February 2023. However, I made a career move to The Goddard School in November 2023, initially as a Two-Year-Old Teacher and was eventually promoted to Assistant Director in March 2024. At the conclusion of August, I transitioned from the Goddard School and resumed my role as a Lead Infant Teacher at Kindercare. I am enthusiastic about the prospect of returning to a nanny role and forging meaningful connections with a new family while creating cherished memories. I am confident that my extensive background in child development and education equips me with the requisite skills to make a valuable contribution to your family.

Booked by 1 family in Mechanicsville, MD

Hi, I’m Eliza! I’m the oldest of four sisters, so taking care of little ones has been a part of my life from a young age! I have hands-on experience with children of different ages. I cared for a newborn for almost a year and also looked after a 7-year-old girl for a year. Currently, I work full-time caring for a newborn and a toddler, but I’m available to weekends and weeknights babysitting opportunities. I’m certified in CPR and have completed a specialized course in newborn care. I have experience with everything from feeding, bathing, and playing to putting children to sleep and driving them safely when needed. I truly love working with babies and toddlers. I believe each stage of childhood is special, and I’m well-prepared to support and care for children with love, patience, and responsibility. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, nurturing, and experienced to care for your little ones, I’d be happy to help!

“Eliza was wonderful; she arrived right on time, got the kids fed, and even came prepared with a fun activity (balloons to make balloon animals), which our kids absolutely loved and are already begging for her to come back. What impressed us most is that she successfully put both kids to bed, which can be genuinely challenging in our house and is where many babysitters struggle. She was also very communicative both before the job and throughout the evening, which made everything feel easy and stress-free. Highly recommend!”

"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."
