Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable childcare provider with over 10 years of experience working with children of different ages. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities, especially date nights, evenings, weekends, or when parents need some extra help. I’m not looking for a full-time position. I enjoy creating a fun and comfortable environment where children can feel safe and engaged. Some of the activities I enjoy doing with kids include: • Bedtime routines and getting ready for bed • Reading books and storytelling • Arts and crafts • Board games and age-appropriate games • Creative and educational activities • Helping with meals and snacks • Keeping children’s routines and schedules I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each family’s routines and preferences. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when leaving their children in someone else’s care. I would love to be a reliable babysitter your family can call when you need occasional childcare!
Hi! I’m Amanda! I am an empty nesting Mom of four and Gigi of two. I have three boys and a girl. Two of my children are twins. I am a former veterinary care technician and have been caring for beloved furry family members exclusively for seven years. I provide in-your-home care for all pets. Services are hourly, daily, and weekly. I aim to become another cherished family member to your fur baby. I have vast experience with rescued and elderly animals. I appreciate the challenges that come with anxious or “special needs” animals. I find that animals trust me and feel safe with me. I enjoy doing the extra things during the day that would help simplify your life. If dishes need washed, or laundry needs folded, I am happy to include this in my visit. My goal is to make your life easier! I also enjoy running errands for clients. Errands could include dropping off or picking up children, getting groceries, or taking your pet to their vet appointments. I have lived in Walkersville and Frederick County for my entire life. I love it here and look forward to helping you!
Hi, I'm Azaria! I'm 25 years old. I have over 11 years of experience caring for kids through babysitting, camp counseling, and my professional career. I've had the opportunity to work with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers! Working with children has always been something I'm passionate about. I'm patient, nurturing, creative, dependable, and attentive to each child's individual needs. My background in mental health has helped me develop strong communication skills, an understanding of child development, and the ability to create a safe, supportive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love finding fun and engaging ways to keep kids entertained, whether through arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading, games, outdoor adventures, or other age-appropriate activities. I also enjoy helping children express their emotions, build confidence, and navigate big feelings in a supportive way. I'm happy to assist with meal and snack preparation, bedtime routines, homework, and maintaining your family's established routines. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and building connections with families in my community. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their little ones in someone else's care, and I strive to provide that peace of mind through compassionate, responsible, and attentive caregiving. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and help create a fun, safe, and positive environment where your children can feel happy, supported, and cared for!

"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!"
