bernice $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Bernice and I am 25 years old. I am from San Antonio Texas but moved here because of the Army. I have been in for 7 years, but my job is currently at a clinic 4 days a week. I’m looking for a side job for occasions and weekends. I can drive and have a Toyota Corolla cross, but I have no car seats. I was a sitter for 2 families during COVID and did weekend and even baby sitting at my old duty station. My experience with these families was amazing because I got to help kids become active and enjoy being creative. I have experience with special needs children, helping with homework, and creating planning parties and hosting activities. One of my families that I baby sat weekly had 3 kids ages 2, 4, and 8. I have worked in the medical field for 7 years and have my CPR and first aid certificate that I must re-certify for every two years. Currently, I am in college and need 7 more classes to finish my bachelors degree in health sciences.

Booked by 5 families in Lothian, MD

Hello! My name is Adetomilola, but many people call me Angie. I am 23 years old and a student at the University of Maryland, College Park pursuing a degree in information science. In my free time I like to sing, watch movies, and read. I love taking care of infants, toddlers, and young children. It's amazing to see how they grow and develop into who they are meant to be. I value being able to have a positive impact on them by providing kind and loving care and by keeping them engaged throughout the day. I have 6 nieces and nephews ranging from the age of 3 months to 8 years old, and I have had a hand in the care of every one of them. I have also provided childcare for numerous family friends, members of my community, and extended family. Recently, I have been assisting a family with caring for their 2 year old and 5 month old. That includes changing diapers, preparing meals, light housekeeping, bathing, nap times, and other parts of their routine. I am a stickler for cleanliness and maintaining a safe and healthy environment for your children. I treat every child with the same love and attention that I would give my family. I am new to this platform, but I’m so excited to get to work. I hope I get to meet your family soon!

“Very responsive, and handled our two kids excellently well and with care. Definitely recommend.”
