Rose 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Adelphi, MD

Hi! I majored film productions and the performing arts. I living in DC but I was born and raised in West Africa until I was 11, so I bring a global perspective and a lot of curiosity to everything I do. I've been babysitting since I was 10, starting with the children in my own family. In the summer of 9th grade, I was a Counselor in Training at the Anthony Bowen Branch YMCA in DC, where I helped lead activities and look after groups of kids until COVID shut things down. I've also regularly babysat at my mother's gym. I'm comfortable with children from 9 months to 12 years old. With babies and toddlers, I'm patient and attentive. With older kids, I love games, arts and crafts, storytelling, and creative play, and I'm happy to help with homework. I'm also a great cook, so I can prepare kid-friendly meals and snacks, and I can even make cooking a fun activity. I'm reliable, caring, and always focused on keeping kids safe and having fun.

“Rose was very professional. She showed up early and jumped in immediately. She even tidied up the play area without being asked. My 4 year loved her. I highly recommend her. ”

Holly $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am on my third year as a full time elementary school art teacher for AACPS. I teach PreK-5th, though I teach primarily 3rd grade and under. I’m creative and fun. I love working with kids! Before working at AACPS, I worked at a private special education school for two years so I have a lot of experience with all kinds of personalities. I have a BFA in Painting and currently I am working on my teaching license since I am a conditional hire. Before teaching, I worked at M&T bank for two years but I left because banking is not really for me. I am a sensitive and creative soul. Selling credit cards and home equities was not bringing me joy. I am happy to say I have found a lot of fulfillment in working with my students. I also am a huge animal lover! I was a dog walker and animal care taker for Unleashed Baltimore for two years as well. I walked and cared for mostly cats and dogs, but there were a couple birds on the client roster.

Meron $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated and nurturing individual with a genuine passion for childcare. Raising my two children has equipped me with hands-on experience, fostering a deep understanding of child development. Having my own transportation ensures reliability and punctuality. My previous work in a daycare setting honed my ability to create a safe and stimulating environment for children to thrive. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my skills and commitment to a nanny position.

Rediat
Booked by 1 repeat family
$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Adelphi, MD

Hi! My name is Rediat, and I’m 29 years old. I’ve been babysitting since I was 18, so I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of different ages. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for them. I’m patient, responsible, dependable, and happy to help with childcare, daily routines, laundry, organizing, and other household tasks. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust with their little ones. I currently work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 PM, so I’m looking for opportunities in the evenings and on weekends. I’d love the chance to get to know your family and see how I can help! 😊

"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."

"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)."
