Booked by 5 families in Catonsville, MD

My name is Kyra! I'm 22 years old and have lived in Maryland my whole life. I have been a full time nanny to children ages 3 months - 15 years for 5 years. I have handled a plethora of special situations including severe allergies, diabetes, G-Tube feedings , physical disabilities as well as ADHD, Autism and Dyslexia. Transportation will be a no issue as I own my vehicle and have maintained a clean driving record for close to 6 years. In addition to this I am CPR, first aid and AED resuscitation certified. Over 2 years of overnight nannying experience. I love music, reading and anything colorful so I incorporate that into my work whenever I can ! I'm very comfortable with animals and have been living in a multiple pet household for most of my life which has included cats, dogs and those of the rodent family; I want to ensure all of your "babies" are tended too . Hoping to find a long term commitment at least a year or more. Thank you !

Kyra I’d wonderful! Great with kids, responsible, on time.

Natalia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Natalia. I’m Colombian, 30 years old, and currently live in the Elkridge, Maryland area. I am looking for a full-time nanny position with a family that can offer some flexibility with my school schedule. I have several years of professional childcare experience with children ranging from 3 months to 12 years old. I was an au pair in Syracuse, New York, from November 2019 to August 2022, where I cared for two little girls, including the oldest from the time she was just 4 months old. After moving to Maryland, I worked as a full-time nanny from March 2023 to March 2024, caring for a little girl who was also 4 months old when I started. I transitioned from full-time childcare to pursue my legal career in the United States. I currently work as a Paralegal and am pursuing my LL.M. part-time at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law. Although I enjoy working in the legal field, I truly miss working with children and would love to find the right family to work with full-time while completing my graduate studies. I am available full-time Monday through Friday, with the exception of Thursday 11am to 1pm due to an in-person class. I am happy to discuss a schedule that works well for both the family and my academic commitment. I consider myself responsible, caring, outgoing, and active. I genuinely enjoy playing with children, planning age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, and supporting their development. I am also a native Spanish speaker and would be happy to speak Spanish with your children if your family is interested in bilingual exposure. I have extensive infant and toddler experience, and the safety, happiness, and well-being of the children in my care are always my priority. I am primarily looking for a family in Elkridge, Maryland, or the surrounding areas, and I would love to find a position with a family that values communication, reliability, and a positive relationship with their nanny. Please feel free to reach out if you think we might be a good fit. I would love to hear more about your family and your childcare needs! Natalia P.

Charlotte $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Charlotte and I would love to be able to lend some help to families in the Baltimore area. I am currently a junior at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, studying political science. I have been babysitting since my early teen years and was a volunteer counselor at Catonsville Presbyterian Church's summer camp for two years. While the majority of my experience is with school age children, I have also worked with toddlers and older infants. I am happy to cook simple meals, do dishes, and pretty much any other chores that might be needed around the house. Aside from that, I’m a fun-loving, attentive, and creative caregiver, always happy to spend time with kids. Looking forward to lending a hand and please don't hesitate to message me with any questions!
