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!!

Hi! I’m Danielle. I’m certified in Anxiety Counseling and have been coaching kids and adults to incorporate wellness practices daily. I’m the proud author of the children’s book; Hugging Olivia. I’ve been providing childcare in the local DMV area since 2019 and have loved to see these little ones grow up.

Danielle is extremely reliable, energetic and great with children. We had a great experience working with her - she is a great cook and was super sweet with my 2 year old son.

Booked by 1 family in Glenelg, MD

I have loved caring for children for as long as I can remember, and with over 15 years of experience, supporting and nurturing kids has become a true passion of mine. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Public Health and have worked in a variety of healthcare settings, which has strengthened my ability to provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care. I am CPR and First Aid certified, as well as a Certified Medication Technician (CMT), giving families added confidence in my skills and reliability. I am dedicated to creating a positive, engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and feel supported. While I plan to further my education in the future, I am currently focused on doing what I love most working closely with children and being a dependable, caring presence in their lives.

$17 per hour for 1 child

I am a senior in high school with a strong passion for working with children. I have taken a Child Development class for two years, where I have learned a lot about child growth and care. Through this class and other experiences, I have worked with children as young as three years old up to almost five-year-olds. I truly enjoy engaging with kids. I love playing with them, talking to them, and creating fun. In addition, I am actively involved at my church every Sunday, where I work with children aged 5 to 10. I help supervise activities, play with them, and encourage positive interaction. I also have experience caring for animals. I have three dogs that I have cared for over the past four years, and I also offer dog-walking services. This experience has taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness qualities I bring to all childcare responsibilities. Overall, my experience with children and animals has given me the skills to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for any child.

Hi, I am Natalia, I am Colombian, I am 28, and I am looking for babysitting positions for the weekends ( Sat - Sun any time) Or night dates ( Monday-Friday 7pm - midnight) I consider myself as a responsible person. I am very outgoing, I used to be a volleyball player for my university team so, I am very active, I like to play with the kids,; I can speak in Spanish to the kids if you would like it. I was an au pair, I took care of 2 little girls since the oldest one was 4 months (they are 5 and 3 years old at the moment) in Syracuse-New York, I worked with them since November 2019 to august 2022. After my program I moved with my husband to Columbia/Maryland and I started taking care of a little girl who was 4 months when I started on march 2023 and I took care of her until March 2024. I quit my job as a full time nanny because I am a Colombian lawyer and I am pursuing a career in the legal field here in the US. I am currently working as a legal assistant during the week but I would like to have an extra job on the weekends doing something that I love which is taking care of kids. I always care about the safety and the happiness of the babies and kids, I have experience working with kids between (3 months old / 12 years old ). I am looking to babysit around Columbia/ Maryland. Thank you! I hope to hear about you and your kids soon! Natalia P.
