Hi everyone! I speak English and Spanish. I am a person that I characterize for my punctuality and kindness. I Have been a nanny since I was 17 years old. I love spending time with children, they grow so fast and learn very quickly. I try to help them as much as I can and help them learn new things and that they have confidence in themselves. I enjoy spending time with them. I have my first aid certificate and certificate of training school for the care of children. I like to do many activities with the children at home or outside if the weather permits. I know your children will have a lot of fun and they will learn from me as well as I from them.

Johana was great! My kids are already asking for her to come back. She was punctual, professional, kind, and kept us updated throughout the evening. 100% recommend.

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 Monica, and I am a babysitter with several years of experience. I have cared for children between the ages of 1 and 10. My responsibilities have included walking children to and from school, playing games, reading together, and supporting evening routines, among other tasks. I have also worked with children in educational settings. During the academic year, I work full-time as a high school educator. I am currently seeking part-time or occasional babysitting opportunities. Outside of babysitting, I enjoy spending time with dogs, reading, and running. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish for families interested in supporting dual-language learning.

Monica is lovely! The kids really enjoyed playing games with her, they went to bed on time, too :-) Happy to have Monica babysit again!

Booked by 40 families in Rockville, MD

I finished LPN (Licenced Practical Nurse). I have years of experiences working with an infant, toddler, and school aged children. Kids are adorable. I don't have my own, but I have several nieces and nephews I babysit and love as my own kids. I love my family so much, they're my everything.

Laurelle was such a lovely lady and wonderful caregiver. She was promptly on time and immediately engaged with my 4 month old. Laurelle was comfortable with my lab mix, Lincoln and I was happy to leave my little family in her hands. Hopefully she will be available the next time I need help as she is incredibly kind and got along amazingly well with my little one.

"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!"
