Hello, my name is Maryam and I'm a recent graduate at UMD. I am offering child care, and household services. As the eldest of 5, I have always loved caring for and engaging with children. I have over three years of professional experience watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids up to 15 years old but have personal experiences of the above since a very young age. My responsibilities have included, crafts, tutoring, cooking, and cleaning. I love to engage the children I care for in a multitude of activities like playing sports, baking, science experiments, different crafts and arts and more!!

Booked by 13 families in Brookeville, MD

Hello! My name is Chloé, and I am a college engineering student with several years of professional childcare, tutoring, and after-school teaching experience. My experience ranges from infants through school-age children and includes recurring infant care, after-school care, transportation, homework support, meals, and bedtime routines. As a STEM-focused college student, I’m also comfortable providing homework support. From March 2024 to October 2025, I worked as an after-school teacher at Lafayette Elementary with students from pre-K through fifth grade. I also provided French and math support as an after-school tutor at Maryvale Elementary. My private-family background includes recurring and occasional care for infants through school-age children, as well as full-time infant care, school pickups, transportation, multi-child care, overnight and extended care, and supporting children with ADHD and autism. Most recently, I provided temporary full-time care for a young infant, including bottles and burping, diaper changes, soothing and naps, tummy time, teething support, and age-appropriate play. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and always prioritize safety, structure, and positive engagement. I’m calm, communicative, attentive, and comfortable following established routines. I’m also comfortable with child-related meal preparation, dishes, laundry, and tidying, and I have previous live-in childcare experience. I’m currently looking for recurring care on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday starting October 5th. My availability includes mornings and daytime hours, with greater availability on Wednesdays. I do have occasional pre-scheduled Monday and Tuesday afternoon commitments and can provide those dates in advance. I’m also open to occasional evening, weekend, overnight, and extended care when my schedule allows. I look forward to supporting your family!

“Very attentive & keeps in contact throughout the job. ”

Andrea Joy 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Andrea and I have experience working with children from newborn on up, in a variety of settings. I've worked as a babysitter over the years, as an after school teacher for 2nd-3rd graders, been a middle school cheer coach, and I've also worked as a sitter working at large events caring for children from newborn-middle school age. I am warm, compassionate, selfless and have a very big heart- especially for children. I enjoy a variety of activities with children and always do my best to omit or limit screen time so we can interact and engage instead.

“Andrea has been taking care of our kids for years, and has become like another member of our family. The kids love playing with her. She is so sweet and kind with our children, and appropriately firm when necessary. And when she cooks for the kids, coming home to a tidied kitchen is a bonus. Can't recommend her enough.”
