Amanda $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I have been teaching and caring for kids ages 18 mos-16 years for more than 25 years. I have two kids of my own who are school age, and have experience in caring for infants and pets as well. I have taught academics, social emotional skills, reading, music, dance, cooking, yoga, sports, fitness and art. I am CPR/IED/EpiPen certified and very safety conscious. I’ve cleared multiple background checks the past four years and can take another if needed. My style is nurturing and firm, structured but appropriately flexible. I’m a strong believer in play based learning, reading and singing daily. Mary Poppins is my role model! I make record keeping and parent/family communication a priority, to ensure trust and accountability are established and maintained. I provide a brief written summary of each child’s day/week and send photo/video updates during the day.

Booked by 2 families in Accokeek, MD

Hi! My name is Nicol, and I truly enjoy caring for kids and supporting families. I'm patient, responsible, creative, and friendly. I communicate with parents through daily reports, texts, or phone calls, always respecting their preferred method. I have my First Aid and CPR certification and more than 4 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and older children. I love playing all kinds of games with kids! Arts and crafts are definitely a favorite--I love making things together! I also enjoy puzzles, video games, and educational games. I've even played games to help teach Spanish to kids I've cared for too! And of course, I enjoy outdoor activities, like hiking, volleyball, or just playing outside. I'm open to anything that keeps the kids happy and learning while having fun (and of course with the parents authorization) . My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children feel supported and cared for.

Nico is a great babysitter. We have used her multiple multiple times over the years. She started with us when we just had one, and now she watches both our boys. She’s very warm, and the babies like having her as their sitter. She’s easy to work with and communicative. She was our friend’s au pair, as well, until her kids were both in school. She’s trustworthy and you should give her a chance! She’s the best!

Booked by 1 family in Accokeek, MD

Hi! I’m a 23-year-old Virginia Tech graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Public Health and a minor in Medicine and Society (Class of 2025). I currently work as a substitute teacher for both elementary and high school students, which has helped me build strong communication, patience, and problem-solving skills with children of all ages. As the oldest sibling, I’ve also helped care for my younger siblings since they were toddlers, giving me hands-on childcare experience from an early age. I’m fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and TB tested. Other teachers have described me as caring, empathetic, attentive to detail, dependable, and a fast learner. I enjoy creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment for children while helping with daily routines, homework, and activities.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
