Cheyenne $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cheyenne, and I’m a caring, reliable childcare provider with a strong background in early childhood education. I’ve been babysitting since I was a teenager, which gave me an early foundation in responsibility, patience, and working with children of different ages and personalities. Professionally, I started as a substitute teacher in a daycare setting, which allowed me to gain experience across multiple classrooms and age groups. From there, I was promoted to a Pre-K assistant teacher and later worked as a school-age teacher, where I continued building meaningful connections and supporting children’s learning and development. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. Whether it’s helping with early learning activities, homework, or just making sure your child has a great time, I bring patience, structure, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your children, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care you can feel confident in.

Booked by 9 families in Ijamsville, MD

Hello, Im Maggie. I’m 24 years old. I have long term experience in childcare and looked after children of all age groups. I’m a Former Youth Development Specialist/Program Facilitator in MCPS for over 3 years. I also worked for the City of Gaithersburg with youth for 2 years. I organized many activities and community events. I worked with many children ranging from Elementary - High school. I am comfortable with big groups since my cohorts ranged from 10-20 students at a time. As a mother of 1, I can understand how hard it can be to find reliable and trustworthy care for your children. Which is why I provide child care on the side to bring ease to as many families as I can. We all need a break or even some help at times. I hope I can bring some light and comfort to your family. Feel free to reach out to me at anytime 😊

Booked by 31 families in Ijamsville, MD

Hi! My name is Carol. I have more than 6 years of experience in and out the country, with children of all ages, since newborns to teenagers. I also worked in a preschool for almost 2 years before I moved to United States. I love taking care of kids and empathize with them! Keeping them safe is my priority and making them happy is my best job!!🤗

Carol is awesome! She has been working for our family four days a week for more than 6 months. She is incredibly reliable and responsible; she is an excellent driver, and she drives my kids to their after-school activities around Bethesda. She always arrives on time and has never missed a day. She is thoughtful and diligent about her work for our family. She is responsible for our two adolescent boys after school, she prepares meals for the kids, helps us manage the household, and she is responsive to any tasks we need her help with. She has been a tremendous resource to our family and I whole-heartedly recommend her.
