Hi! My name is Megan and I’m 28 years old. I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2019. I live in Manassas, VA. I’ve enjoyed babysitting kids of all ages since I was 13. I work full time during the week, and I’m looking to make some extra spending money on weekends and weeknights. In my free time, I like to run, cook and read. I have my own car and I’m willing to travel into DC and to nearby suburbs in MD and VA. I look forward to meeting you!
“Megan was great with 4 children (6,4,3 & 2) to allow another couple and my husband & I to go out the evening/night of Valentine’s Day. We had a wonderful time and Megan made that possible. She was responsive, kind and funny and my daughter who was crying moments before we left (about us leaving) seemed to forget her sadness within 5 minutes of Megan showing up. She even got all 4 toddlers down successfully and they were sound asleep when we got home, miraculous! We’d love to have her watch our children again.”
Amanda $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Bushwood, MD
Hi there! I’m Amanda; a longtime caregiver, former au-pair/nanny, and a single mom of two wonderful kids. Alongside my main work as a consultant, I also serve as a substitute teacher for AACPS, and help coach local kids sports, so I’m used to adapting quickly and connecting with children of all personalities and ages. I work from home most days, which gives me flexibility to help local families with babysitting, after-school care, or date nights. Whether it’s keeping little ones engaged with activities, helping with homework, or making sure evenings run smoothly, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and positive environment where kids feel comfortable. I'm an energetic, dependable, patient, and easy going Australian, and genuinely enjoy being with kids. I’m also happy to lend a hand with light household tasks or pet care when needed. Available for flexible bookings in Edgewater, Annapolis, and nearby areas; open to evening or occasional weekend jobs when my schedule allows.

"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."
