Laura $25 per hour for 1 child

I have worked with children and youth since high school. I had the desire to work with children and youth as an adult however I haven’t had the chance to really balance that with school and work. Now that I am older and have more availability I want to pursue my passion with working with children and youth. I have a degree in family and humanities and I am a veteran. Over the years I’ve always wanted to pursue having a daycare center or a family based childcare. I still have that passion so I am looking to build a trusted and useful community for those who need my services. I am looking to provide support to families who do not work the traditional 9 to 5 working hours. My services is available for those who work non-traditional hours. The evening/overnight shift and those who work various changing work schedules. I received my experience with working with children and youth through internships, community engagements, and helping family and friend when they need a babysitter. I am willing to experience more hands on opportunities with you and your family. I believe that my passion for working with children of all ages will get me the experience I need to run a successful business. Please feel free to contact me. Excited to work with you.

Phoenix $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi - my name is Phoenix and I’m a current Junior at UMBC studying biology. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been sitting since 14 years old. I currently volunteer at MWPH in the school age division, so I’m comfortable looking after children who may need extra attention. I have access to a car and tutoring experience. I work as a house/pet sitter as well and have experience with both cats (newborn to adult), and dogs (over one year). I also work as a household assistant and can run errands and clean.

Noor $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Noor — Your Family’s Extra Helping Hand! 💛 I’m originally from the Middle East. I’m fluent in Arabic and English and have about 3 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers in a daycare, along with experience with older children. I’m also a mom to an 8-year-old daughter, so caring for kids is something I truly enjoy! I’m comfortable with children of all ages and love creating a fun, safe, and welcoming environment. Whether it’s a trip to the park or fun at home with baking, painting, board games, crafts, costumes, and pretend play, I always try to make their time enjoyable. I can also help elementary-age children with homework and tutoring. And I love cooking! My favorite dish is lasagna, and I’d be happy to prepare meals or even teach kids how to make fun, simple foods like homemade mini pizzas. 🐶 Pet & Senior Care: I also provide dog sitting and walking and am comfortable with all dog breeds, so I’m happy to help with your furry family members too! 👵🏻 Senior care: Both of my senior parents live with me, and caring for them brings me a lot of peace and joy. I’m comfortable helping seniors with companionship, cooking, driving to appointments or errands, cleaning, and everyday tasks. 🏡 Household Help: I’m also happy to help with cleaning, organizing, laundry, cooking, and running errands. I can bring my own cleaning supplies when needed, although I prefer to use the supplies you already have. I’m a warm, patient, dependable, and caring person, and I genuinely love helping families. Whether you need childcare, senior care, pet care, or an extra hand around the house, I’m happy to help wherever I’m needed! Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction. I look forward to meeting you and your family and hopefully becoming someone you can rely on! 💕

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Curtis Bay, MD

Hi, I’m Miracle! I’m a nanny and Newborn Care Specialist with years of experience caring for babies, toddlers, and older kids. Caring for children comes naturally to me, it’s truly what I love most. I first started working with kids in Nigeria as a preschool teacher and nanny, and since moving to the U.S., I’ve had the joy of helping families welcome their little ones and adjust to those first precious weeks and beyond. I’m confident with everything from diapers, bottles, and soothing to healthy sleep routines and creating a calm, loving space for both baby and parents. I’m currently a nanny for a wonderful family Monday–Friday, 11am–6pm, but I also make time for families who need extra support. I’m available for date nights, early mornings, overnights, and regular weekend care. Families often say I bring a calming presence and that I treat their kids like my own. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, reliable, and love bringing both care and joy into children’s routines. I’m excited to meet more families through UrbanSitter and would love the chance to support yours.

“Miracle was so lovely! Communicated well, responded promptly to a last minute request and kept my daughter entertained in a small hotel room. My daughter immediately sat down next to her and I could leave swiftly feeling comfortable that everything was under control and that my daughter was in good hands. Much gratitude to Miracle! ”

"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!"
