Hello! 😊 My name is Jannine and I have over 10 years of experience helping families with children of varying ages, from infants to older children, along with just general experience from being the oldest in my family. I come from a healthcare and research background, with experience working in the Emergency Department as a scribe and even vaccinating patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. I'm working towards my goal of attending medical school, and babysitting is a wonderful opportunity to continue supporting children and families while saving for this next chapter. In addition, I have experience working with children with special needs from having worked as a behavioral therapist for kids with Autism. I have also looked after a child with epilepsy with a past family that I babysat for during evenings and weekends. Lastly, I have experience with pets as I am a Wag! petsitter and dogwalker in my free time. I am happy to take care of any children, furry or human 😉 I'm excited to connect with families looking for a reliable sitter who will treat their little ones with kindness and care! I look forward to meeting you! 💛
Hi my name is Jules! I currently provide behavioral therapy to children with ADS, which I’ve been doing for the past three years! I have provided dog walking and sitting for 2 years with wag previously. I believe in connecting with you and your family and attempting to make your life just a little bit easier.
Hello! My name is Lachelle, and I have 6 years of experience as a prekindergarten teacher in Baltimore City Public Schools, as well as experience as a daycare teacher (infants, 1s & 2s), and a babysitter. I specialize in creating warm, structured, and developmentally supportive environments for young children. I’m skilled in early literacy, math, behavior management, and planning hands-on activities that keep children engaged and learning through play. I prioritize safety, communication, and building trusting relationships with families. Whether helping with routines, supporting milestones, or organizing fun and educational activities, I provide attentive, high-quality care tailored to each child’s needs.
I love children and children love to be around me.I have done an internship with a kindergarten teacher at a local elementary school. I also have been a literacy tutor for k-3 students and can help develop and build on reading skills. I currently work in a special needs school and am willing to learn how to care for your special needs kids. I love music, crafts and having fun overall.
Hi there! I am a registered nurse with over 5 years of experience, including a strong background in infant care. Before nursing, I spent more than 3 years as a daycare teacher, primarily working with infants ages 8 weeks to 1 year, and frequently assisting in classrooms with children ages 3-5. I was well known in the daycare center for Craft Days with Ms. Sam. I am calm, attentive, and genuinely love supporting children's growth and routines, while always prioritizing safety, comfort and fun!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
