Meghan $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Cabin John, MD

Hi! I’m a second grade teacher in the MCPS district with a passion for working with children. Before becoming a teacher, I spent 12 years as a barber, where I built strong connections with kids and families. I’ve also been babysitting since my early teenage years, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. I’m happy to help with homework, plan creative activities, go on nature walks, drive to and from extracurriculars, assist with housekeeping, and, of course, be a little silly and have fun! I am seeking summer employment, but until then, I’m available on weeknights and weekends, and I’m also open to last-minute care when you need an extra hand.

Hello I’m Ashley; a 5th grade teacher offering child care, tutoring,and household services while public school is closed for the summer ☀️ I’ve been a babysitter since I was 15 years old.

I helped students develop motor skills, social skills, practice sight words, and did lots of arts & crafts!

Samantha $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Samantha and I am currently a student at Georgetown University studying Economics. I am looking for part-time childcare and household support opportunities and I have many years of experience caring for children of different ages through long-term babysitting roles I held throughout middle school and high school. For four years, I babysat for a family with two young children, beginning when their oldest daughter was a toddler and later helping care for her infant younger brother as he grew. I also spent three years caring for another wonderful family with two children, an energetic 8-year-old girl and her younger brother who was 5. Over the years, I became someone both families could consistently rely on to care for their children with patience, attentiveness, and genuine warmth. I truly love working with kids and always tried to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for them. Some of my favorite activities included outdoor play, walks to parks and playgrounds, arts and crafts, reading together, baking and cooking simple meals, movie nights, imaginative games, and helping with homework and bedtime routines. I also regularly prepared meals and snacks, helped keep shared spaces organized, and cared for family pets whenever needed. More than anything, I understand the amount of trust families place in someone caring for their children and I have always taken that responsibility very seriously. I pride myself on being dependable, nurturing, organized, and calm under pressure, and I genuinely value building strong relationships with both children and parents over time. I would love the opportunity to support your family however I can!

As a high school teacher, lacrosse coach, loving Aunt, and dog owner, I bring years of experience working closely with children and teens in both educational and athletic settings. I'm passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment for kids of all ages. My background has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and a deep understanding of child development and behavior. I have my B.S. in Biobehavioral health from Penn State University. I currently teach Health and Nutrition at St John’s College High school, and I’ve also worked at several different universities including Boston University and Georgetown University. According to feedback I’ve received from supervisors, I create a safe and welcoming environment and successfully keep children engaged and interested in class. I’ve coached all levels of lacrosse including youth, high school, and college. I also have experience being a live-in caregiver for my grandmother. I’m comfortable with light household tasks and pet care. Families can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and caring.
