Booked by 4 families in Hanover, MD

Hi, I’m Noor☺️! I’m a caring, patient, and energetic graduate community college student with experience caring for children from infants to school age. I used to work part-time at a daycare for 5+ years and also babysit for several families, giving me hands-on experience with routines, playtime, meals, naps, and creating a safe, positive environment for kids of all ages. I love keeping children engaged through crafts, pretend play, outdoor walks, playground trips, and fun activities that encourage creativity and learning. Families describe me as dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. In addition to childcare, I also have experience with dog sitting and dog walking, so I’m very comfortable around pets! My goal is always to make children feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I truly enjoy building strong connections with both kids and families, and I’m excited to help however I can :)

Noor has been absolutely incredible. She showed such comforting level of care for our high energy toddler. She is always incredibly sweet, kind, and emotionally intelligent towards our daughter and even managed to create an immediate comfort with our other child who is severely disabled and limited in his ability to interact. Our family could not recommend Noor enough, she will always be welcomed in our home.

$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.

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.

I have a wealth of experience working with children, spanning from my hometown to my current role as a nanny for two spirited children. My background encompasses caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I pride myself on being patient, adaptable, and nurturing while maintaining strong organizational skills. I understand that caring for children can be challenging, but I always strive to meet the unique needs of each family. I am passionate about fostering creativity through screen-free activities such as music, dance, and arts and crafts, ensuring a fun and enriching environment. Additionally, I have a clean driving record, my own vehicle, and hold certifications in CPR and first aid, giving you peace of mind when it comes to your children's safety and well-being.
