Hi, I’m Lauren-Nicole 😊👋🏽 Engaging, easygoing sitter with 8+ years of childcare experience through teaching, summer camps, and caregiving! Current high school educator (Full time) with evening and weekend availability. I have my own vehicle to get to/from shifts. In my free time I enjoy working out (gym/sports), music (singing), practicing on duolingo (currently learning Spanish) and exploring new places. I live in the DC area with my fur baby. I’ve worked as a summer camp counselor, so I’m comfy with energetic children, and I have the creativity to keep them engaged! This role was pretty active so I am up for any high energy activities (sports, obstacle courses, swimming, outdoor activities, etc.), in addition to low energy, quiet time activities (reading, studying, quiet games). Having worked as a preschool teaching assistant and gym facility caregiver, I’ve facilitated academic activities, games, nap time and lunch/snack times for large groups of children. I currently teach and tutor students, so I’m comfy offering homework help. I’ve worked with children between the ages of 1 and 17 years old (Minimal infant care experience). I look forward to working with your family! :) Experience: HS teaching, nannying, tutoring, preschool assistant, summer camp counselor, stay and play caregiver, youth mentor Current & Past childcare employers: Maryland public schools, YMCA, University of Maryland-Baltimore County, TIC camp, Maryland-based church

Hello, my name is Michelle and I’ve taken care of kids since the end of my high school year. What I most like about babysitting is the environment the child makes by being creative and learning from each thing they do and it’s basically never a dull moment. My motive is to help out parents and give them a fresh start each day when coming back home from work. I also have experience with newborns. I am a recent college graduate and soon to transferring to University to get my bachelors degree.

I have a background in Child Development, spent 16 years teaching preschool, caring for children between the ages of 3 months-12 years and the last 13 years working as a professional nanny!

“Both our boys,9 and 3, had so much fun with Michaela. She played games with them, puzzles, read books, took them outside for a walk and prepared food for them. She communicated great with us the entire time - she also sent us several pictures of our boys playing together to keep us updated. She’s very engaging, communicative and friendly. Our boys absolutely love her (they were super excited to play with her again). We felt she became a very important part of our family. We miss her!”

"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!"
