Booked by 6 families in Potomac, MD

Hi everybody! My name is Klaudia and besides being a part-time babysitter I'm open to families which are considering to have a live-in or live-out nanny. I have wide experience with kids in different ages. As a certified Red Cross first-aid trainer I was able to teach kids about the health, first-air and CPR. I am very patient and I love to see the progress that kids can make. Besides my long experience with kids, including kids with disabilities, as an ordinary nanny for total of 6 years, I was a live-in nanny for almost two years. This experience consisted from taking care of three kids (ages 5, 9 and 12), driving them to activities, making a food for them, helping them with homework and of course having fun! What I liked about this experience was the opportunity to maintain great relationship with these kids and the ability to be there for them anytime they needed me. Additionally, I do have experience with toddlers and infants, bedtime and morning routines, feeding and playing with babies or taking them for stroller walks. I'm also enjoying tutoring English and Math. Please don't hesitate to send me a message.

Hi, I’m Tatia! I recently graduated from college and am back home in DC. I have 8 years of professional experience working with children in a variety of capacities, including as a teacher’s aide in school settings, babysitting and caretaking in the home, and serving as an educator and social worker for children through organizational work. Aside from my professional experience, I’m also an older sister to two lovely younger siblings who I’ve cared for over the years, and that’s truly where my passion for working with children began. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with children ages 1–15. I’m very patient, adaptable, and always looking for fun and engaging ways to interact with children. My teaching experience has prepared me to respond thoughtfully to conflicts, support children’s individual needs, and always prioritize safety and care. My culinary experience and passion for cooking also mean I’m more than happy to prepare meals and snacks that are both nutritious and enjoyable for children. As a DC resident, I’m very familiar with the area and love the idea of extending care beyond the home by exploring the many family-friendly events, activities, and sights around the city. I’m very flexible, dependable, and open to any questions. I hope to work with your family soon :)

I would like to take care of your babies! I started working with kids since the age of 14. Around that age I tutored and took care of children around the age of 4, 6 and 7. I've also taken care of my 4 nephews during their infant, toddler and preschool years. I'd describe my personality as responsible, fun and wise! I like working with kids because they keep you young at heart and we can always learn from them on how to be happy with the little things!

“She was awesome. Took initiative, and helped support me and watch over my son during a small dinner event. She did everything I would have done and more. Served guests, cleared plates, checked in on me occasionally, cleaned up kitchen and dining, kept kiddo occupied. All with a cheerful disposition. We will continue to use her if she’s available. ”

"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."
