Aduneya $20 per hour for 1 child

I have worked at an elementary school taking care of 25 kids. Being creative and finding activities for kids to do is very important. Painting, drawing, any games that they like. It’s also very important to lead Children to make sure rules are followed so they are safe at all times. Through getting to know them and being a good listener, over time they will feel more comfortable.

Booked by 1 family in Fulton, MD

I'm a warm, dependable caregiver with 20+ years of experience from infants through adolescents, and a Master's in Maternal and Child Public Health. I'm also CPR certified for children and adults through the American Red Cross, recently renewed. I believe great childcare starts with getting to know each child and respecting the way each family does things. I like to learn your routines and expectations so I can provide care that feels comfortable and consistent. During our time together, I keep things safe, calm, and fun-whether that means helping with homework, playing a game, getting outside, preparing a meal, or settling into bedtime. I've also worked as a teacher, tutor, and mentor, and I love helping children feel confident, curious, and capable. I'm patient, attentive, and happy to meet kids where they are, and I want parents to feel confident that their children are in caring, capable, and trustworthy hands. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!

“Sara has been watching our kids regularly since they were babies, and they still light up whenever they hear she's "coming over to play." She's incredibly reliable and always arrives early. She stays in close touch throughout each visit, sending updates and pictures of whatever fun they're having together, and she's always respectful of our kids' routines, asking thoughtful questions about our expectations for the day. Bedtime is where she has impressed us, she's masterfully guided our kids through bath time, stories, and getting settled for the night, calmly and consistently. Whenever we're in a logistical crunch and I'm stressed about how to make it all work, Sara is the first person I think to call. She's been steady and dependable for our family for years, and she's genuinely a joy to have around and one of the most thoughtful, caring, and knowledgeable people I know. We'll keep booking with Sara, and I recommend her to any family looking for a sitter they can truly rely on.”

Sarah $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Sarah and I have been babysitting for approximately 15 years. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and young kids. I also am a mother of a 5 year old and often times, I babysit our cousins, my nephew and other friend’s children. I started babysitting at the age of 15. My duties include transporting kids to/from school, some tutoring, arts and crafts, and some household chores. I also used to work as a swim instructor and lifeguard. I mainly taught classes aging from 3-12. I was a swim instructor and lifeguard for approximately 6 years. I was also a caretaker for both of my grandparents. I assisted with cooking dinner, giving appropriate medication, and taking them to/from their doctor’s appointments. I am afraid of mid size- large dogs but I don’t mind small dogs.

Hillary $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Hillary, I am a current senior in high school. I am offering child care. I work with the elderly right now but I also enjoy working with kids. As a high school student with a half day schedule, the rest of my day was spent at an elementary school as an intern. When it comes to kids I enjoy doing arts and crafts and also active activities they would like doing. I could provide homework help if needed. Growing up I was left with the responsibility of watching my cousins whether it was for the weekend or the day. I enjoy working and looking after kids and would like to expand.
