$15 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Oxon Hill, MD

I am a recent graduate of Elon University, with a degree in Statistics with a concentration in Actuarial Science with minors in Asian Studies, Finance and Accounting. I was a Camp Counselor at the JCCSF several summers ago, have volunteered at The First Tee of San Francisco, The First Tee of San Francisco, Horizon's (an organization that serves underserved students) and have been babysitting for eight years for kids for a wide age range. I love babysitting because I get to build relationships with the kids I babysit, and working with kids is something I love. I now currently reside in Alexandria, Virginia working at an accounting firm in their Advisory practice!

We loved that Samantha was very personable and easy going. Our son took to her immediately. She arrived on time and was interested in his routine. She asked good questions and was enjoyable to be around. We will definitely hire her again. As new parents, knowing that she’s infant CPR certified gave us extra confidence so we could really enjoy a relaxing evening out.

Tinbit $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Tinbit, and I’m currently offering babysitting and childcare services in the area 🤍 I have over 3 years of experience working as a special needs caregiver in Ethiopia, where I provided dedicated, patient, and personalized care to children. This experience has shaped me to be extremely attentive, understanding, and compassionate in how I care for every child. I also currently serve as a Sunday school teacher (8 months - Present), where I guide and care for children in a structured and supportive environment. In addition, I’ve worked in fast-paced settings assisting with large events, which strengthened my responsibility and organization. I grew up in a large family and attended an international school, so I’m very comfortable with children from all backgrounds and personalities. I truly love being around kids, their honesty, joy, and the way they find happiness in the smallest things is something I deeply value. I’m nurturing, uplifting, and also firm when needed, creating a balanced and positive environment. I strongly believe that childhood is one of the most important stages of life, and I aim to be a trustworthy and positive presence in every child’s life. I am reliable, patient, and committed to making both children and parents feel safe and supported. If you’re looking for a babysitter or nanny, feel free to message me—I would love to connect! 🤍
