"Savannah was very sweet playing with our infant. He was very happy taking a bottle from her, going on a walk, and reading a book."

Maylani $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Kettering, MD
Hi! My name is Maylani, and I am entering my junior year of college studying Public Health Science. I’m looking for a seasonal summer babysitting position and would love to support a family that needs help during the week and/or weekends. I have experience babysitting for families in my neighborhood after completing Safe Sitter training, and I have also worked as a gymnastics coach for school-age children since the summer of 2023, a role I continue to hold today. Coaching has helped me develop patience, creativity, leadership, and strong communication skills with children of all ages. A little more about me: I hope to become a podiatrist in the future, and as a pre-med student, I have been consistently shadowing at a pediatric urgent care clinic since June 2025, which has given me additional hands-on exposure to working with children in a clinical setting. I also had the opportunity to shadow at a pediatric hospital in Athens, Greece. In addition, I love science, work as a college biology tutor during the school year, and will be doing biology research this summer. If you’re looking for a responsible, energetic, and caring babysitter this summer, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
bernice $19 per hour for 1 child
Hi my name is Bernice and I am 25 years old. I am from San Antonio Texas but moved here because of the Army. I have been in for 7 years, but my job is currently at a clinic 4 days a week. I’m looking for a side job for occasions and weekends. I can drive and have a Toyota Corolla cross, but I have no car seats. I was a sitter for 2 families during COVID and did weekend and even baby sitting at my old duty station. My experience with these families was amazing because I got to help kids become active and enjoy being creative. I have experience with special needs children, helping with homework, and creating planning parties and hosting activities. One of my families that I baby sat weekly had 3 kids ages 2, 4, and 8. I have worked in the medical field for 7 years and have my CPR and first aid certificate that I must re-certify for every two years. Currently, I am in college and need 7 more classes to finish my bachelors degree in health sciences.
