Booked by 9 families in Jefferson, MD

Hello, Im Maggie. I’m 24 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 😊

Hi! My name is Saroya, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who truly enjoys working with children. I’ve loved caring for kids since I was 15, and I have experience helping with working with children in a professional setting and babysitting, which has helped me become patient, attentive, and understanding. I’m comfortable with tasks like preparing simple meals, helping with homework, and keeping kids entertained in a safe and positive environment. I always make sure to follow parents’ instructions closely and prioritize children’s safety and well-being. In addition to babysitting, I also offer other services such as light housekeeping and pet sitting, so I’m happy to help out wherever needed to make things easier for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and create a safe, fun environment for your children
