Booked by 1 family in Chevy Chase, MD

Hi, I’m Janel! I’m a graduate student pursuing my Master’s in Social Work with 5 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages and abilities. I’ve worked as a Registered Behavior Technician and ABA Therapist providing 1:1 care for children with autism and developmental delays, helping them build communication, social, and daily living skills. I’m patient, nurturing, and great at creating a calm and structured environment where kids feel safe and supported. I also have experience as a paraprofessional in a school setting and led youth programs where I was responsible for the safety and wellbeing of groups of students. I genuinely love working with kids and bring both professional training and a warm, caring personality to every family I work with. I’m looking for flexible babysitting opportunities in the DC/Maryland area and would love to support your family!

Janel was great with my two kids.

Paula $25 per hour for 1 child

Creative, patient, compassionate and professional nanny dedicated to providing a safe, welcoming and stimulating environment for children, I have 5 years of experience with children of ages between 4 months to 12 years. I'm a person who enjoys spending time with children doing activities like picnics, going to the playground and riding scooters, dancing, cooking , building Legos and puzzles, crafts, read. Now that summer season is coming there is a lot of fun outdoors activities to do and also with water. In my experience I like to engage the baby in age-appropriate play and activities that stimulate their senses and promote learning such as trying different textures, staring pinching objects and developing hand motor skills, reading books and showing pictures of objects to identify them, tummy time, Motivate and emphasize activities when appropriate, crawling and walking, first steps, I am a person who loves nature and animals, I like to go for a walk with the children in the stroller and let them get some sunshine. I would love to be those extra hands that you need at home when you’re working or doing your own thing having the certainty that your children will be ok will me and I’ll help you as much as I can. I'm pet friendly, I have First Aid/CPR certificate, driver license and clean record. I speak English and Spanish. If you're interested, I can teach the children some basic things in Spanish
