Daniah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone, my name is Daniah and I’m from Maryland. I’m a recent graduate of Mount St. Mary’s University with a bachelor’s of science in psychology and am currently in graduate school at George Washington University for my master’s in school counseling. I offer child care, senior care, and household services. I have years of experience working with children as a Sabbath School teacher, ABA therapist, and caregiver. I’ve supported kids from toddlers to teens, including children with autism, helping them with communication, daily routines, and social skills. I’m also CPR/First Aid certified. I’ve cared for seniors and vulnerable adults—helping with appointments, errands, medication, and daily support—and love being a steady, compassionate presence. I also assist with cooking, cleaning, and other household tasks. I’m dependable, empathetic, patient, and passionate about helping others feel safe, supported, and cared for. Let me know how I can help your family!

Catherine $20 per hour for 1 child

As a proud mother of two beautiful daughters and a woman of African heritage, I deeply believe in the proverb, “It takes a village to raise a child.” This belief is at the heart of how I care for and connect with children. I strive to create a warm, nurturing environment where every child feels safe, valued, and supported. Motherhood has gifted me with patience, gentleness, and empathy, while my experience in a school setting has expanded my understanding of child development and creative learning. I cherish the opportunity to inspire curiosity, emotional growth, and joyful exploration—making me a thoughtful, community-minded, and dedicated nanny/helper.

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.
