Clorène $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Clorène, but I go by Coco! I moved from Tampa about a year ago, and have been enjoying life in the Baltimore area! While in Tampa, I worked for a babysitting agency, consistently watching kids from ages 1-12+ for 2 years. I also have worked in a nursery/ daycare, watching about 30-40 babies at a time (1-2 year olds). I genuinely love working with children, playing with them, and doing crafts. I am also CPR certified! Can't wait to work with you soon!

Booked by 5 families in Monkton, MD

Hi, I’m Noor☺️! I’m a caring, patient, and energetic graduate community college student with experience caring for children from infants to school age. I used to work part-time at a daycare for 5+ years and also babysit for several families, giving me hands-on experience with routines, playtime, meals, naps, and creating a safe, positive environment for kids of all ages. I love keeping children engaged through crafts, pretend play, outdoor walks, playground trips, and fun activities that encourage creativity and learning. Families describe me as dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. In addition to childcare, I also have experience with dog sitting and dog walking, so I’m very comfortable around pets! My goal is always to make children feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I truly enjoy building strong connections with both kids and families, and I’m excited to help however I can :)

“Noor has been absolutely incredible. She showed such comforting level of care for our high energy toddler. She is always incredibly sweet, kind, and emotionally intelligent towards our daughter and even managed to create an immediate comfort with our other child who is severely disabled and limited in his ability to interact. Our family could not recommend Noor enough, she will always be welcomed in our home.”

Hi! My name is Marianna and I am 23 years old. I'm a reliable and easygoing sitter with 8 years of experience caring for children ages 1-13. I currently work full-time during the week (9-5), so I'm available for weeknight and weekend babysitting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment--whether that's playing outside, doing crafts, board games, movie nights, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children at once and am happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and pet care as needed. I also have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving for school pickups, activities, errands, etc. Families describe me as patient, dependable, calm, and approachable, and I always try to make both parents and kids feel comfortable. I'm happy to provide references upon request and would love the opportunity to support your family however I can!

Mia $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! Mya name is Mia and I am 22 years old. I am in nursing school and I am a certified nursing assistant. I am offering child care and dog sitting/ walking. I have always babysat growing up. The ages always varied from 6 months old to 12 years of age. I love children and babies and I am CPR certified as well. I also dog sit and I love to walk so me and your fur babies can get lots of exercise (if that’s something the dog would like). I have no issues with bigger dogs or any breeds. I have 3 dogs at home that I help take care of, so I am not a stranger to multiple pets either. I am very responsible and will make sure things go as smoothly as possible:)
