Kree $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a new nurse with a strong passion for working with children. I have many years of experience caring for kids of all ages, from newborns to teens. My background includes volunteering at church and schools, serving as a counselor, and working in a licensed family daycare. I also have experience supporting children with special needs. Along with childcare, I am comfortable with pets and can provide pet care when needed. I love caregiving because it allows me to make a difference in children’s lives. Whether through play, learning activities, or simply being present, I find joy in helping kids grow and feel safe. My nursing background and CPR/first aid training give me the skills to remain calm and responsible in emergencies. Something personal about me is that I am very energetic, love to laugh, and connect easily with children. I enjoy preparing healthy meals, being active, and creating fun, age-appropriate activities. I also have a reliable car for transportation and can help with light housekeeping. I am also flexible and available for occasional weekends and date nights if needed. I would love the opportunity to bring my energy, compassion, and skills to your family. Excellent references are available upon request!

Booked by 104 families in Gaithersburg, MD

Hello! My name is Kayla. Please read my profile before booking to see if I and my policies are a good fit for your family, as I am only accepting ad hoc care needs and not currently looking to add a scheduled position :) Note: I will be out of the country on my honeymoon from 2/14/19 through 3/4/2019. A little bit about myself: I enjoy working on my house, gardening, going to the theater (Hamilton!), politics, running, traveling, hiking, tennis, cooking, reading (!!!!), good television (love The Office!), entertaining friends and family, and learning. I am a happy young woman, very organized, focused, self motivated, responsible, punctual and energetic. I like to be active and fill my time up with hobbies and activities. I have my own reliable transportation (my own car), as well as live one minute from the Shady Grove Metro station, and am well versed in driving in rush hour, early mornings and late nights. I am currently in college as an elementary education major; my class schedule changes each term. I have been babysitting independently from eleven, with experience with a wide variety of ages, from two months to fifteen years old. I have previously tutored elementary and middle school aged children for four years and completed a teaching internship in a 5th grade classroom. Currently (Dec 2018) in addition to work for a few families, I am finishing up my position as a full time nanny (end date 1/4/2019) for a now 3 year old, a 7.5 and and 9.5 year old Mon-Thurs 7-6pm. I have been with them for 7.5 years. I create, plan and organize that include games, crafts, yoga, songs, books, cooking, science experiments, field trips and other diverse, fun activities. We go on outings to the library, different parks and trails, museums, play spaces, gyms, theaters, the pool and water parks, bowling, ice skating, nature centers and gardens, memorials, even train stations, fire departments and recycling centers! We get outdoors often, eat well and try to be well rounded. Reading is a passion of mine, and I love to pass it on to younger generations. While we learn a lot, we also have a ton of fun and laugh the whole time! Policy: -Four hour minimum. -Hours booked will be charged. -For overnights totaling more than 25 hours, I charge sleeping hours at 1/2 rate. -First cancellation without charge; 50% of booking fee for each cancellation thereafter. -I do not accept checks. Electronic payment (UrbanSitter, PayPal, Venmo) or cash.

“Amazing sitter! She was prompt, communicative, very engaging with our daughter, brought her own fun activities, got them to bed expertly, and wrote down a summary of the evening for us. Wish she lived in NYC!!!”

Booked by 106 families in Gaithersburg, MD

Hi there! My name is Diana, and I have 12 years experience in childcare, I've worked with kids from newborns to high-school age. I was an Au Pair for one year and a half and I had the opportunity to work with kids of different ages, not only that, but I also have experience doing overnight and date-night sitting. I have taken the CPR and first AID course, because it was a requirement to be an Au Pair. My connection with children has always been great. I love working with them, and we always have a blast. Not only I do enjoy reading with children, but I love activities outside, go to the park or to a local library, making up fun games - whether it be a puppet show or hide-and-seek and I like cooking as well. What will I do with your children? It depends on them and what they like to do. What I will tell you is that I will work to keep them busy and constantly engaged. Sometimes it's great to stay at home, build a fort, bake some goodies, and have a movie day. However, sometimes it's great to go outside and take the train or drive to different parts of the city and visit every park you pass, local libraries or museums. There are so many things, places, and people to learn from in this world. Please contact me if you have any questions! Thank you for take the time and read a little more about me, I hope hearing from you!!

“Diana was excellent and I would recommend her totally!”
