Amanda $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Saint Michaels, MD

Hi there! I’m Amanda; a longtime caregiver, former au-pair/nanny, and a single mom of two wonderful kids. Alongside my main work as a consultant, I also serve as a substitute teacher for AACPS, and help coach local kids sports, so I’m used to adapting quickly and connecting with children of all personalities and ages. I work from home most days, which gives me flexibility to help local families with babysitting, after-school care, or date nights. Whether it’s keeping little ones engaged with activities, helping with homework, or making sure evenings run smoothly, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and positive environment where kids feel comfortable. I'm an energetic, dependable, patient, and easy going Australian, and genuinely enjoy being with kids. I’m also happy to lend a hand with light household tasks or pet care when needed. Available for flexible bookings in Edgewater, Annapolis, and nearby areas; open to evening or occasional weekend jobs when my schedule allows.

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.
