I am 24 years old. I am excellent with kids. I have been working with kids for 10+ years. I started working with kids as a volunteer at a private school in Rockville when I was a teenager. And since then I’ve really enjoyed working with kids. I love music, food, video games, road trips, traveling, etc. I love to collect stuffed animals & I love to cook. I’ve recently taken up tennis as a hobby.
“I worked with Laila in an after-school program, and she was always reliable, caring, and great with the kids. She was patient, professional, and did a great job keeping the children engaged while making sure they were safe and following their routines. She worked well with both the kids and the staff, and you could tell she genuinely cared about the children she was working with. I would definitely recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and dependable babysitter.”
Hi, my name is Nia, and I am a student at Howard University studying Sociology and African American Studies. I have over four years of babysitting experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged children. I am responsible, patient, and dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn and grow. I enjoy reading with children, helping with homework, organizing arts and crafts activities, and encouraging creative and educational play. I can assist with meal and snack preparation as well as light housekeeping. I take pride in building positive relationships with both children and parents and strive to make every family feel supported and at ease.
“Nia Assata has been the only non-biological caregiver my daughters (currently 15yo and 7yo) have known for the past four years. Nia has been remarkably caring, responsible, and creative in her care for them despite an eight year age-gap. She has watched them for several hours at a time, sometimes overnight. Despite my wife and I having a robust community of friends and family, we trust Nia exclusively with the care of our girls in our absence as she is consistently thoughtful, even tempered, and aware of their comings and goings as she is responsible for them. Her interaction style is also quite competent as she is inquisitive, interactive, and directive while also having a gentle way that could disarm even an oppositional child. We recommend her without reservation”
Hi! My name is Srinidhi and I recently graduated from Vanderbilt with my master's in Mental Health Counseling. I've worked with kids ages 3-15 in all arenas from daycare to tutoring and summer camps. I have 1 year of private babysitting experience (plus 7 years of auntie babysitting experience!) and am excited to provide a safe environment for your kiddo(s)! My experience as a mental health professional and as a babysitter allow me to make sure kiddos are having fun, staying safe, and successfully getting through everything from meal times to brushing their teeth. I also have 5 years of experience as a private tutor and am happy to help your student with any homework difficulties they may be facing. Thanks for reading all the way through, and I hope to hear from you soon!
Hello, I am Nancy. I am currently student at montgomery college. I’ve always loved being around kids—it’s something that comes naturally to me. With many nephews and nieces, I’ve spent years helping take care of them, and it’s given me so much joy and experience. Whether it’s playing games, telling stories, or just making them laugh, I love creating a space where kids feel happy and cared for. What I enjoy most is how unique every child is. They each have their own personality, and it’s so rewarding to connect with them and see them grow. Taking care of kids has taught me to be patient, creative, and understanding, which are qualities I bring to every family I work with. For me, childcare isn’t just a responsibility—it’s something I’m passionate about and genuinely enjoy doing.
Hi there! My name is Maimounat, but please feel free to call me Jackie! I am proudly graduated from the Teacher Academy of Maryland, a rigorous high school program that equipped me with real classroom experience, lesson planning skills, and a genuine passion for nurturing young minds. Beyond my credentials, I bring warmth, patience, and a natural ability to connect with children of all ages — creating a fun, structured, and loving environment wherever I go. I am responsible, dependable, and deeply compassionate, always going above and beyond to make sure both children and families feel supported. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with a range of household services including light housekeeping, meal preparation for children, homework help, laundry, tidying up common areas, and helping maintain a smooth and organized home while parents are away. Whether you're looking for after-school care, full-time support, or a helping hand around the house, I am ready to show up with a smile and give your family my very best!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
