Booked by 5 families in Ashton, MD

Hello, my name is Wunmi, and I'm delighted to meet you! I'm new to the region and looking for my next babysitting job with a great family. I’m a kind, compassionate and trustworthy individual with a heart for children. I enjoy spending time with children because I adore seeing the world through their eyes. My child care experience spans all age groups, from infancy to adolescence. Activities done with children depend on their age and interests, some examples include playing in the park, hiking, singing, painting, and visiting the farm. I prefer to keep them engaged in order to keep their screen time to a minimum. When caring for a child, I also make an effort to put my phone away as much as possible so that I can give them my undivided attention. I’m looking forward to finding the next family that I’ll be working with both short and long-term. It’s important that we both feel we’re the right match for one another, so I appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon. My references are available upon request.

Hello~ My name is MJ, and thank you so much for considering me as a caregiver to your family! I am based in Montgomery County, MD and I have listed my educational background and career for your review - - _________________________________________ Education (High School and College) Thomas Wootton High School 12' Montgomery College 14' (Associate's Degree) University of Baltimore 17' (Bachelor of Science) Career Background Commercial Real Estate (MD/CA) Signed Music Artist in Florida __________________________________________ As a caregiver, I primarily work with parents that need childcare after school, and I have listed different ways I utilize time with children to complete homework and engage in activities that will encourage a healthy balance between work and play! Based on the parents' preferences with how they would like their children to complete tasks/activities, I then cater the preferences with a light schedule such as: 1.) Decompressing after school 30~45 minutes 2.) Work on homework and any school-related projects 3.) Reading/Non-Screen time activities 4.) Upon parents' preferences, allowing screen time 5.) Food servicing/light cleaning based on parents' preferences _____________________________________________ Why I chose UrbanSitter as a caregiver: Personally, I like the strong standard in regards to caretakers having their background checked while also being able to communicate transparently with families prior to starting any job. I personally believe in meeting the family before any caretaking job after, having an introduction via UrbanSitter's platform first for the family comfort, alongside any professional references the families need from me, to properly screen me before moving forward to working I prioritize communication and servicing families based on standards and functionalities defined, by the parents to then support the needs of caretaking as an assistant, and also echoing what the parents would like from me 110% I will be more than happy to provide my resume // referrals upon request, thank you so much for your time and consideration!

Thanat 1 review
$15 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of childcare experience including 2 years as an Au pair. I love being around children, and I am so obviously enjoyed interacting with them. I am responsible, focus, gentle, neat and be on time. I am full vaccinated. I have my own transportation and would love to discuss job responsibilities/expectations

Benz (Thanat) is amazing! He took care of my son, 5 days a week from ages 2-3 and has become part of the family. My son tells me frequently how much he loves Benz and how Benz plays the best games. He is reliable, caring, and can match energy with the calmest or wildest of kids. I was nervous how my son would do switching from all female care takers (other than his Dad) to a male sitter/nanny and I can say Benz was perfect. They would go on daily walks through the neighborhood and he kept my son happily entertained while we worked from home. Any family that gets to work with Benz is lucky and we are looking forward to our special Benz visits! Coming back to update, after having several different nanny/sitters since my son started preschool, I have really come to appreciate Benz even more. He is amazing reliable and responsible. In the year he was with us, he was never more than a few minuets late (due to the buses on the only road in and out of our neighborhood) and I always heard from him when he had any issues or questions. He is a wonderful person and a extraordinary sitter. My son talks about him almost every day and how much he loves him.

"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

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
