Booked by 1 family in Bladensburg, MD

Hi! My name is Julie Andrea, and I have over 8 years of experience caring for babies, toddlers, and children of all ages. I started my journey in childcare as an au pair and have since continued working as a full-time nanny and occasional babysitter. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I always prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for the little ones I care for. I also have plenty of great references available upon request. I look forward to connecting with your family!

Aara $15 per hour for 1 child

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.

Maylani $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Bladensburg, MD

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!

Erin 2 reviews
$24 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Bladensburg, MD

Hello! My name is Erin and I currently work in tech. I'm offering child care and open to additionally supporting household services. I am in my early thirties and have nearly twenty years of experience with childcare, from infant through pre-teen ages. I've cared for 1-4 children at a time. Though I don't have kids of my own, it has been the biggest pleasure of my life to watch my two young nieces grow up (3 yo and 1 yo), which is a main reason I'm looking to incorporate childcare into my regular schedules. In addition to playing with and looking after the kids, I have experience in preparing food and meals, helping with household chores like laundry and dishes, and assisting with homework. I have my own car and am comfortable driving kids to/from activities. I'm open to one-off childcare opportunities, but would also love the chance to make a good relationship with a family and become a regular sitter! I'm happy to phone or video call any interested families so that we can get to know one another beforehand!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
