Crystal $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Crystal. I am a young professional living and working in the DMV. I have an MPH in Social and Behavioral Sciences from Temple University, Go Owls! I am looking for some work on the side to make some extra money and also get outside more (I work from home)! I have 10+ years of experience with children. I worked for a local babysitting agency through high school and college. I have also worked as an RBT! I am not a CNA but I do come from a family of caregivers and I have experience providing companionship/assistance/non medical general care for elderly clients. I can also care for pets, I have a cat of my own and I have experience dog sitting for friends and family. I have been cpr certified in the past and can get certified again. Feel free to ask any clarifying questions. Looking forward to hearing from you!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Bladensburg, MD

Hi, I'm Maddie! I'm a graduate student at UMD and I am currently offering child care services. I love working with and empowering kids and have previously had roles as a summer science camp teacher and summer library staff where I primarily have cared for school-aged children. I love doing crafts, reading, and playing games with kids and I occasionally tutor.

Maddie is absolutely wonderful! It was her first time meeting my son, who’s on the spectrum, and they connected right away. She’s incredibly kind, reliable, and someone I feel completely comfortable trusting with his care. Maddie even handled driving him to and from his ABA therapy, which I truly appreciate. I’m so grateful to have found her and look forward to having her help again on future dates.
