Booked by 4 families in Odenton, MD

I'm a current master's student studying medical sciences with plans to attend medical school next year. I've always loved working with kids and have several years of experience caring for and engaging with children of all ages. I've led youth ministry at my church, working with toddlers through preteens. This included creating fun and meaningful lessons, supervising during services, and supporting families. My relationships with families in the church have also led to trusted babysitting opportunities. Outside of church, I've volunteered with the Boys and Girls Club, primarily supporting elementary-aged children with science-related activities and after-school care. I come from a large extended family and as the eldest, l've naturally taken on the role of caregiver by providing safe, fun, and nurturing environments for younger family members. I'm known for being patient, dependable, and easy to talk to, and I genuinely enjoy building strong, positive connections with kids and their families.

“Very nice and professional. Arrived on time. Would definitely book her again.”

Imaculada $15 per hour for 1 child

I have over 6 years of experience with children. I am patient, caring, creative, reliable, responsible, organized, and very flexible. I enjoy playing, singing, listening to music, doing activities, dancing, preparing recipes with the children, taking care of their clothes, and much more. I have worked as a nanny with children aged newborn to 7 years. I was a literacy teacher and also have experience as a catechist for children aged 4 to 12 years. Currently, I care for two very affectionate and energetic children, spending time creating and playing indoor and outdoor games, trying to stay as much as possible away from technology, close to nature, books, and time for imagination, learning, and creativity. I have training related to education, such as: early childhood educator, nanny training, childcare assistant, pedagogy, and first aid. I love caring for and being around children.

Noor $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Noor — Your Family’s Extra Helping Hand! 💛 I’m originally from the Middle East. I’m fluent in Arabic and English and have about 3 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers in a daycare, along with experience with older children. I’m also a mom to an 8-year-old daughter, so caring for kids is something I truly enjoy! I’m comfortable with children of all ages and love creating a fun, safe, and welcoming environment. Whether it’s a trip to the park or fun at home with baking, painting, board games, crafts, costumes, and pretend play, I always try to make their time enjoyable. I can also help elementary-age children with homework and tutoring. And I love cooking! My favorite dish is lasagna, and I’d be happy to prepare meals or even teach kids how to make fun, simple foods like homemade mini pizzas. 🐶 Pet & Senior Care: I also provide dog sitting and walking and am comfortable with all dog breeds, so I’m happy to help with your furry family members too! 👵🏻 Senior care: Both of my senior parents live with me, and caring for them brings me a lot of peace and joy. I’m comfortable helping seniors with companionship, cooking, driving to appointments or errands, cleaning, and everyday tasks. 🏡 Household Help: I’m also happy to help with cleaning, organizing, laundry, cooking, and running errands. I can bring my own cleaning supplies when needed, although I prefer to use the supplies you already have. I’m a warm, patient, dependable, and caring person, and I genuinely love helping families. Whether you need childcare, senior care, pet care, or an extra hand around the house, I’m happy to help wherever I’m needed! Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction. I look forward to meeting you and your family and hopefully becoming someone you can rely on! 💕

"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!"
