Find infant babysitters in Sandy Spring, MD

Hi! I’m a second grade teacher in the MCPS district with a passion for working with children. Before becoming a teacher, I spent 12 years as a barber, where I built strong connections with kids and families. I’ve also been babysitting since my early teenage years, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. I’m happy to help with homework, plan creative activities, go on nature walks, drive to and from extracurriculars, assist with housekeeping, and, of course, be a little silly and have fun! I am seeking summer employment, but until then, I’m available on weeknights and weekends, and I’m also open to last-minute care when you need an extra hand.

I would love to spend time reading to your children, playing outside, exploring nature, and dancing in the kitchen. I have taught preschool for three years. I have extensive experience babysitting, and I have eight years of teaching experience at the middle and high school level. I speak fluent German, and I would be happy to immerse your children in German and support their language development. I have worked as a full-time nanny for four years, with ages ranging from newborn (twins) to seven. **Allergic to cats**

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.

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.

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 :) I am an elementary school teacher and love it! Before going back to school for elementary and special education, I was a nanny for a decade. I worked with a family of three for (newborn - middle school) for eight year and was responsible for the children’s full-day schedule during the week, planning outings, working on academic skills, etc. I worked for another family during the pandemic, educating twins through first and second grade. In addition to nannying, I have babysat for hundreds of families in the DMV with loads of experience from the newborn stage through the teenage years. I have done many date nights, full days, overnights and full weeks.

If applicable, I make time outside and/or outings a priority. About me: I teach upper elementary school and love it. My focuses are making learning fun and relevant to my students, social emotional learning, and growth mindset. Outside of work I enjoy experiencing all life has to offer and fill my days as much as possible: local sporting events, museums, hiking, camping, golfing, tennis/pickleball, board games and puzzles, historical and cultural activites, cooking/baking things from scratch, and reading/book clubs. Each year I strive to accomplish 1,000 hours outside, 60 games played and 70 books read. I am married (no children) and spend a lot time with my nieces and nephews.
