Booked by 3 families in Garrett Park, MD

I graduated with a Bachelor's of Arts in Psychology in 2016. I am very passionate about helping people improve their lives and hope to go back to school for social work or forensic psychology. I have 2 nephews and 1 niece that I watch for my older brother, and they are the light of my life! When I have them for extended periods of time I try to make a set schedule of activities to keep them busy and set meals. I also used to be a YMCA Summer Camp counselor in college work with children in kindergarten and enjoyed every minute of it! I am CPR certified! I like to play piano and I love love love podcasts! I have 1 year puppy named Rosie who I absolutely adore! Please reach out if you have any questions!

Abria was wonderful! Definitely will hire again

Gabrielle $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.

Booked by 10 families in Garrett Park, 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.

"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!"
