$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Potomac, MD

Caring and enthusiastic grandmother with so many years of experience raising all my grandchildren. I am patient, adaptable and comfortable supervising more than one kid and hoping to better take advantage of my skill set in a hands-on care taking role. Also, I am an impeccable cook and willing to do that as well. I speak Farsi as a first language and understand English well, but my speaking skills are at an intermediate level. I hold a CPR and First Aid Certification

“Ms. Touran has been wonderful with our newborn! I was at first hesitant to have a babysitter over for a newborn baby, but Ms. Touran was very experienced and trustworthy. I got my much-needed rest while she took care of the baby. I will definitely book her again! ☺”

Thanat 1 review
$15 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of childcare experience including 2 years as an Au pair. I love being around children, and I am so obviously enjoyed interacting with them. I am responsible, focus, gentle, neat and be on time. I am full vaccinated. I have my own transportation and would love to discuss job responsibilities/expectations

“Benz (Thanat) is amazing! He took care of my son, 5 days a week from ages 2-3 and has become part of the family. My son tells me frequently how much he loves Benz and how Benz plays the best games. He is reliable, caring, and can match energy with the calmest or wildest of kids. I was nervous how my son would do switching from all female care takers (other than his Dad) to a male sitter/nanny and I can say Benz was perfect. They would go on daily walks through the neighborhood and he kept my son happily entertained while we worked from home. Any family that gets to work with Benz is lucky and we are looking forward to our special Benz visits! Coming back to update, after having several different nanny/sitters since my son started preschool, I have really come to appreciate Benz even more. He is amazing reliable and responsible. In the year he was with us, he was never more than a few minuets late (due to the buses on the only road in and out of our neighborhood) and I always heard from him when he had any issues or questions. He is a wonderful person and a extraordinary sitter. My son talks about him almost every day and how much he loves him.”

Booked by 3 families in Potomac, MD

Hello my name is Juanita and I've been a nanny, babysitter and teacher for 15 years. I have experience with caring for children between the ages of 3mos.-13yrs.old(some children with special needs). I've also worked in three different day cares and volunteered in 1st and 5th grade elementary school classes. I am what people may call a "traveling nanny". I travel anywhere in the U.S. with families. If you're interested in my services, I can provide you with as many references as you may need. Thank you and I look forward to speaking with you soon.

“Juanita did a great job watching my son when he was home sick from school. He was really fussy and she dealt with it very well. ”

Maria 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Maria, and I am from El Salvador. I am a Spanish speaker and I also speak some English. I have over 20 years of experience working with children of all ages. In my home country, I worked as a nurse assistant, which helped me develop strong caregiving and safety skills. My most recent experience has been mainly with babies and toddlers. I am very passionate about working with children. I consider myself patient, loving, sweet, and friendly, and I truly enjoy helping children grow in a safe, healthy, and loving environment. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am looking for a respectful family where we can work together as a team and create a positive and nurturing environment for the baby. I am fully vaccinated and available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I also have excellent references available upon request. I would love to hear more about your family. Thank you for your time!

“I can’t recommend **Maria** highly enough as a nanny. She is loving, dependable, and truly wonderful with children. From the moment she steps into a home, Maria brings a calm, nurturing presence that immediately puts both children and parents at ease. Maria is incredibly attentive and patient, always tuning in to each child’s needs and personality. She handles daily routines like meals, naps, playtime, and bedtime with ease, while making everything feel gentle and reassuring rather than rigid. Safety and care are always her top priorities, and it shows in the thoughtful way she approaches every part of her role. What truly sets Maria apart is her genuine love for children. She builds meaningful connections, engages them with warmth and creativity, and creates an environment where they feel safe, happy, and loved. She is reliable, communicative, and respectful of family routines, making her an absolute joy to work with. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Maria as their nanny. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their children and their home.”

"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."
