Kate $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Kate! I have lived in Capitol Hill for the past four years, but I'm originally from St. Louis, Missouri. I am offering child care, household services and can help with any pets. I love being a babysitter and have a lot of experience watching toddlers and kids from a young age, including my cousin, who was born when I was 13! I babysat him multiple times a week until I left for college (and after), as well as other kids in my neighborhood. My older sister and mom are both elementary school teachers (kindergarten and 1st grade!), so I also have a lot of fun experience helping out in their classrooms! I grew up with a dog and currently have 2 cats, so happy to also help out with pets where needed.

Nayara $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Friendship, MD

Mom to 2 amazing kids in elementary school. Three years of experience as an au-pair and nanny before becoming a parent. Experience volunteering in elementary school and preschool as a teacher aide. I love being in nature, playing with kids outdoors, dancing to silly songs, reading, baking, and making art. I practice positive and peaceful parenting, focusing the connection between child and their caregiver. Serving children and families is my passion. As an immigrant and a mother who started raising her children without "the village", I'm deeply in touch with the unmet needs of families with young children in the US. I am passionate about supporting families with what they need to thrive and succeed- childcare, social-emotional supports for parents, and engaging the family with the community. I’m pursuing a graduate certificate in maternal and child health and planning a career change from research in public policy to child therapist.
