Booked by 1 family in Beltsville, MD

Hi! My name is Brianca, I am a college student. It is summer break right now. I am here to care for your children during the week. Depending on your schedule I am flexible when school begins again!! I started working with children at a very young age because I love kids. I took a child development class in high school which taught me foundational knowledge about children at a young age. This also allowed me to work face to face with children everyday. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers and young children. I am also a graduate student at my university. I specialize in creating, engaging and educational activities while advancing problem solving skills and multitasking skills.

“Brianca is wonderful! Extremely caring and responsible. ”

Hello! I am fun, caring, and dependable and have 3+ years of experience working with preschool and elementary age children in different childcare, after-school, and classroom settings. I currently work as a tutor at an elementary school in DCPS. I love getting to know and spend time with kids-- playing games, doing arts and crafts, reading, exploring, and more! I strive to ensure all kids feel safe, loved, and supported as they learn and grow. I am happy to help with homework, chores, and other housekeeping tasks. I am patient, empathetic, and creative, and will go the extra mile to ensure your children are well cared for!

Hanna $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a DC professional (general manager of a small business) looking to do something fun and fulfilling with my mornings. I've grown up with dogs, cats, rodents, and currently have two cats and several fishtanks, so I am well acquainted with general and specialized pet care. I am fit and familiar with DC's walkable areas and trails (commute by bike when the weather's nice) so perfectly capable of walking dogs for short or long distances, whatever is necessary! I love big dogs and have no allergies, so any size is fine by me. I also obviously have a lot of experience with cats, including administering both oral and injected medication. I am more than capable of basic fish care and freshwater changes, and able to identify some common illnesses (fin rot, bloat, etc) that people who don't have tanks may miss in such small creatures! I have 60+ plants in my house so I am also capable of plant care if you need a housesitter who will care for them in an educated manner - I'm familiar with the demands of higher need plants like calatheas and ferns, know when to leave less thirsty plants like snakes and zz's alone to keep from risking root rot, and even come with my own moisture meter. I love living things and their care, and would love to take care of yours! I do have experience with children (oldest of 4) and can help out with some light babysitting, although more comfortable with helping out around the house some mornings to take the load off! I can prep simple meals, tidy up, do laundry and dishes, and am fairly handy if you need shelves hung or a wall painted!

Booked by 3 families in Beltsville, MD

Hello! My name is Bitania (Bee-tan-ya) and I would be happy to help any family in need of a caring sitter! I have experience caring for infants and children below the age of 13 from taking care of my little cousins and younger brother (since birth). I worked in my church's nursery for 4 years, which had children aged 1-8 years old. I love to get creative and make games/activities for the kids I care for. I am energetic and can keep up with kid’s high energy! I am currently working in child life and development and have been trained to do activities with babies that support their mental development and physical growth. I am also CPR certified and was trained as an emergency medical responder. I am a recent college graduate and can assist with homework assignments or tutoring! I have no problem preparing meals and helping with a bed/bath routine as well. I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and don't mind wearing a mask in the house if that's your preference. Thank you for reading my intro :).
