I am dedicated and dependable with 10years experience as a baby sitter. Am flexible and adaptable with extensive knowledge of childcare and development. Am devoted to helping children in what they have a passion for. I love to help out in school work, light meal preparation and generally take care of the kids. Am fun, responsible and loving and at the same time know how to set boundaries and maintain decorum in the home at all times. However and unfortunately, I am not animal friendly

She was wonderful. We came back to kids sleeping peacefully and a living room cleaned up from all toys and dinner. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

Making a positive impact on children's lives is what I strive for. For three years, I have supported families by providing reliable care. I currently work full time for KinderCare caring for infants from 6 weeks to 13 months. I'm available for date nights, and night care for mom and infants. My approach is patient and calm, yet I bring creativity and imagination to playtime. I enjoy outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational activities. I am comfortable caring for two children at a time. I communicate through written daily reports and verbal updates at pickup. I'm also very comfortable enforcing household rules. I have some college experience, along with First Aid Training, CPR Training, and Early Child Development Coursework. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping. I look forward to meeting your family and creating a nurturing environment for your child!

$22 per hour for 1 child

I’m a caring and dependable mother of three adult children with a long history of working with little ones. Before raising my own family, I spent two years working in a daycare, where I gained hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. For many years, I also taught children at Sabbath School, which helped me understand how to keep young minds engaged, supported, and feeling safe. I bring a calm, nurturing presence into the home, and I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages. Parents often appreciate my patience, my consistency, and the way I help children feel understood and valued. What I Offer I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to creating a fun yet structured environment that helps your children thrive. I have a good car and a clean driving record, and I’m used to being on the road from my experience with DoorDash—so pickups, drop-offs, and quick errands are no problem if needed. Whether you’re looking for someone to help after school, during evenings, or for occasional support, I’m happy to step in and bring peace of mind to your family’s routine. Why I would be a good fit: • Mother of three grown children • Experience working in a daycare • Many years teaching children during Sabbath School • Safe and reliable transportation • Professional, gentle, and attentive • Comfortable supporting household routines

Amirah Bowie
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Amirah, and I'm currently a business honors student at the University of Maryland. I am offering child care and household services. I enjoy working with children and have experience through family and friends. However, I recently graduated from a teacher prep program at the Academy of Health Sciences at PGCC (dual-enrollment high school), graduating with an associate's degree in teacher preparation. While studying there, I acquired more than 30 hours of observation and hands-on experience in real-world classrooms. I also have experience working with animals, as I have lived with both a dog and two cats before and am used to household chores such as light cleaning (dishes, vacuuming, etc.) and running errands.

Nana Bowie
$19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nana, and I'm 18 years old. I'm a freshman at Bowie State University majoring in Nursing. Caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I have three younger siblings, and I've been helping raise and babysit them since they were born. Being responsible for them taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for children of different ages. That experience inspired me to pursue a career in nursing and made me realize how much I enjoy helping families. I'm experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, reading, games, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I'm also happy to prepare simple meals, help with bedtime routines, light housekeeping, laundry, and keeping play areas clean and organized. Families can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring. I understand the importance of creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I'm excited to help families by providing reliable childcare while building meaningful relationships with both parents and their children.
