Find a babysitter in Takoma Park, MD

Growing up in a large family meant that I always was intimately acquainted with just how intense and rewarding it can be to raise children. Even though it can be chaotic at times, seeing the world through new eyes is exciting. As such, for all of high school, I babysat children from the ages of 3-10, taking them to after-school lessons, making dinners and spending time going on adventures! In addition, I also tutored in a local elementary school, assisting technology classes and helping students with beginner coding and typing skills. As a university student currently, I have continued to tutor in math and reading comprehension for students aged from 5-17.

Hi! My name is Maylani, and I am entering my junior year of college studying Public Health Science. I’m looking for a seasonal summer babysitting position and would love to support a family that needs help during the week and/or weekends. I have experience babysitting for families in my neighborhood after completing Safe Sitter training, and I have also worked as a gymnastics coach for school-age children since the summer of 2023, a role I continue to hold today. Coaching has helped me develop patience, creativity, leadership, and strong communication skills with children of all ages. A little more about me: I hope to become a podiatrist in the future, and as a pre-med student, I have been consistently shadowing at a pediatric urgent care clinic since June 2025, which has given me additional hands-on exposure to working with children in a clinical setting. I also had the opportunity to shadow at a pediatric hospital in Athens, Greece. In addition, I love science, work as a college biology tutor during the school year, and will be doing biology research this summer. If you’re looking for a responsible, energetic, and caring babysitter this summer, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Hello! My name is Hillary, I am a current senior in high school. I am offering child care. I work with the elderly right now but I also enjoy working with kids. As a high school student with a half day schedule, the rest of my day was spent at an elementary school as an intern. When it comes to kids I enjoy doing arts and crafts and also active activities they would like doing. I could provide homework help if needed. Growing up I was left with the responsibility of watching my cousins whether it was for the weekend or the day. I enjoy working and looking after kids and would like to expand.

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!
