Silvia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Silvia and I am thrilled to be your family's new caregiver. I love working with infant, toddles and kids watching them grown up. I have been babysitting kids since I was 15 years old! I have three kids of my own that I love with all my heart and watching my youngest son going to school makes me realize that I miss taking care of some little feet 😊 I am very passionate about taking care of kids, patient, clean and organized.

Julie $22 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring and dependable mother of three adult children with a long history of working with little ones. Before raising my own family, I spent two years working in a daycare, where I gained hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. For many years, I also taught children at Sabbath School, which helped me understand how to keep young minds engaged, supported, and feeling safe. I bring a calm, nurturing presence into the home, and I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages. Parents often appreciate my patience, my consistency, and the way I help children feel understood and valued. What I Offer I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to creating a fun yet structured environment that helps your children thrive. I have a good car and a clean driving record, and I’m used to being on the road from my experience with DoorDash—so pickups, drop-offs, and quick errands are no problem if needed. Whether you’re looking for someone to help after school, during evenings, or for occasional support, I’m happy to step in and bring peace of mind to your family’s routine. Why I would be a good fit: • Mother of three grown children • Experience working in a daycare • Many years teaching children during Sabbath School • Safe and reliable transportation • Professional, gentle, and attentive • Comfortable supporting household routines

Booked by 1 family in Owings, MD

Hi! I’m Sophie. I am originally from Utah but moved here about 3 months ago. I graduated in Sociology and I am working on a Master’s Degree in school counseling. I am looking for occasional babysitting jobs and would love to find a family to babysit with on a regular basis. I have done Stop The Bleed and CPR training within about the last year and I nannied 3 children under 7 for a summer 3 days a week. I also teach a class of about six 7-8 year students olds once a week and have nieces and nephews I babysit occasionally. I have a flexible schedule in the hours outside of my normal job (a 9-5 M-TH) and I am happy to help with whatever including cleaning, cooking, laundry, prepping lunches, etc. I love doing fun activities like crafts, baking, or being outside. I grew up playing tennis and softball but am enjoying playing pickleball and doing yoga these days.

“We had a wonderful experience with Sophie. She was caring, responsible, punctual, followed instructions well, and was attentive to our 17 month old’s needs. Our son is usually slow to warm to people, but was immediately comfortable with Sophie. We would definitely recommend her to other families and would happily have her babysit again!”
