Gabrielle Silver Spring
$25 per hour for 1 child

Caring for kids has always been a big part of my life. I grew up as the oldest of four, so nurturing and supporting little ones comes naturally to me. I’ve spent over five years working in youth development, served in my church’s kids ministry, and volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters throughout college—continuing my mentor relationship even after graduating. I love creating safe, fun, and meaningful experiences for children, and families can count on me to bring patience, responsibility, and joy to every interaction.

Silver Spring

Booked by 10 families in Chevy Chase, MD

Hello families! I am Amelia, a CPR and First Aid Certified recent college graduate. I have been working with children for the past decade or so, and have been focusing on working with infants and toddlers for the past 5 years. I am also available for cat sitting (at a much lower rate) if any of you are interested. I focus on forming strong emotional bonds with the kids in my care, based on mutual respect and acknowledgment of every person's inherent worth. In the next couple of years, I am hoping to get my masters in education and pursue a career as a classroom teacher. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and willing to negotiate pricing and expectations based on the personal needs of your family.

Hi! My name is Srinidhi and I recently graduated from Vanderbilt with my master's in Mental Health Counseling. I've worked with kids ages 3-15 in all arenas from daycare to tutoring and summer camps. I have 1 year of private babysitting experience (plus 7 years of auntie babysitting experience!) and am excited to provide a safe environment for your kiddo(s)! My experience as a mental health professional and as a babysitter allow me to make sure kiddos are having fun, staying safe, and successfully getting through everything from meal times to brushing their teeth. I also have 5 years of experience as a private tutor and am happy to help your student with any homework difficulties they may be facing. Thanks for reading all the way through, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Booked by 1 family in Chevy Chase, MD

Hi families! My name is Mycala, and I am a passionate childcare provider with experience in early childhood education and working as a full-time nanny. I have cared for children of various ages and love creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel supported and encouraged to explore. I enjoy planning hands-on activities like art, music, reading, and creative play while following each child’s interests and developmental needs. I believe children communicate and learn in many different ways, and I love being a caregiver who helps them feel confident, curious, and valued. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, with experience supporting daily routines, activities, meals, and the unique needs of each family. I would love the opportunity to provide your child with a caring and fun experience!
