Booked by 5 families in Colesville, MD

Hello! I’m Stephanie. I have over 14 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens. I am CPR and First Aid certified. Most of my recent experience has been focused on infant care and the toddler years, including successful potty training. I love keeping kids active and creative through reading books to spark imagination, outdoor exploration, fun crafts, and hands-on educational play. I believe in patient, positive communication and always prioritize ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. I look forward to discussing how I can support your family’s needs!

“We have had an excellent experience with this babysitter and highly recommend her to any family looking for someone dependable, knowledgeable, and confident with children. She is incredibly reliable, always arriving on time and following through on every commitment. One of her greatest strengths is behavior management. She sets clear expectations, remains calm under pressure, and is firm yet fair, creating an environment where children feel secure and understand boundaries. She is also an outstanding tutor who explains concepts clearly, adapts to our child's learning style, and encourages independent thinking. She truly cares about helping children succeed while maintaining a structured, positive atmosphere. We trust her completely and appreciate the professionalism, patience, and dedication she brings every time she works with our family.”

Booked by 3 families in Colesville, MD

I graduated with a Bachelor's of Arts in Psychology in 2016. I am very passionate about helping people improve their lives and hope to go back to school for social work or forensic psychology. I have 2 nephews and 1 niece that I watch for my older brother, and they are the light of my life! When I have them for extended periods of time I try to make a set schedule of activities to keep them busy and set meals. I also used to be a YMCA Summer Camp counselor in college work with children in kindergarten and enjoyed every minute of it! I am CPR certified! I like to play piano and I love love love podcasts! I have 1 year puppy named Rosie who I absolutely adore! Please reach out if you have any questions!

“Abria was wonderful! Definitely will hire again”

I have over 5 years of experience with caring for children of all ages whether new borns or teens. It started with taking care of family members being a first- born daughter in my big family and expanding to neighbors and friends. With a degree in business management and training in psychology, I bring patience, understanding, and the ability to engage children of all ages in age-appropriate activities. My experience as a certified HCA caregiver, including a year of live-in care, has further developed my ability to ensure safety and wellbeing. I follow parents' guidelines for discipline and respect each family’s preferences. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, keeping tasks within the home. I prioritize clear communication with parents to provide the best care possible for their children. Can’t wait to meet future families 😊

“Hilary was great! She very quickly connect with my toddler and handled the bedtime routine perfectly. She was so kind and professional. We’ll definitely have her back.”
