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!

Marianna Towson
$20 per hour for 1 child

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!
