Marie 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Ijamsville, MD

Hi, My name is Marie and I am currently babysitting. I am offering child care. I have 3 children, with one in the spectrum. I worked in a child center with new born, infants, toddlers and toddlers. I also have experience working with special needs children age 4 to 15. I am a native French speaker and I love to teach and tutor children to learn and speak French while having fun.

“Marie was absolutely wonderful with our three-year-old. She is professional, reliable, and incredibly easy to work with. What really stood out to us is her experience with autism, she handled everything with patience, confidence, and care. From the moment she arrived, she connected quickly with our child and needed very little direction, which gave us great peace of mind. We could tell she genuinely cares and takes her role seriously. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any family, and we’ll definitely be hiring her again!” ”

Cheyenne $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cheyenne, and I’m a caring, reliable childcare provider with a strong background in early childhood education. I’ve been babysitting since I was a teenager, which gave me an early foundation in responsibility, patience, and working with children of different ages and personalities. Professionally, I started as a substitute teacher in a daycare setting, which allowed me to gain experience across multiple classrooms and age groups. From there, I was promoted to a Pre-K assistant teacher and later worked as a school-age teacher, where I continued building meaningful connections and supporting children’s learning and development. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. Whether it’s helping with early learning activities, homework, or just making sure your child has a great time, I bring patience, structure, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your children, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care you can feel confident in.

Booked by 12 families in Ijamsville, MD

Hello, Im Maggie. I’m 25 years old. I have long term experience in childcare and looked after children of all age groups. I’m a Former Youth Development Specialist/Program Facilitator in MCPS for over 3 years. I also worked for the City of Gaithersburg with youth for 2 years. I organized many activities and community events. I worked with many children ranging from Elementary - High school. I am comfortable with big groups since my cohorts ranged from 10-20 students at a time. As a mother of 1, I can understand how hard it can be to find reliable and trustworthy care for your children. Which is why I provide child care on the side to bring ease to as many families as I can. We all need a break or even some help at times. I hope I can bring some light and comfort to your family. Feel free to reach out to me at anytime 😊

"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!"
