Booked by 31 families in Bethesda, MD

My name is Marian and I'm currently a student at Montgomery college studying international relations. I've been working with kids since I was teenager and love it. I started by watching my younger sister, and then began babysitting for kids in our neighborhood. Over the last few years, I've worked primarily with infants and toddlers, but I love kids of all ages. If it's nice out, I like to take the kids outside, but if not I would play with them inside or read to them. In my free time, I love reading, baking and cooking.

Booked by 5 families in Bethesda, MD

Hi everyone! My name is Kristýna, I’m 27 years old, and I’m currently offering occasional childcare and pet care services. I’m a former au pair with experience in the UK, Italy, and the USA, and I’ve been working full-time with children for over 7 years. I have experience with all age groups, including caring for multiple children at once, and I’m happy to provide local references upon request. I genuinely love spending time with kids and engaging in fun, creative activities with them. I’ve also worked as a children’s entertainer at a hotel resort, which gave me lots of ideas for keeping kids entertained and happy. I’m comfortable with bedtime routines, diaper changes, meal prep, homework help, and more. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out-I’d love to hear from you! 😊

Kristyna did a wonderful job!

Hi families! My name is Jasmin, and I am passionate about caring for children and creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where they can learn and grow. I have experience working with infants and children and truly enjoy helping them feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. I am patient, responsible, nurturing, and always focused on providing the best care possible. I also enjoy helping families by keeping their homes organized. I am happy to assist with light housekeeping tasks such as children’s laundry, dishes, tidying play areas, and maintaining a clean and welcoming space. I absolutely love animals and enjoy caring for pets as well. I am comfortable providing attention, affection, and support to furry family members. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted and dependable person your family can rely on.

Booked by 1 family in Bethesda, MD

Hi, my name’s Lily! I’m a 34 year old DC native. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my whole life, and currently have two cats of my own. I love getting to spend time with friends pets, and will love to get to know your pets too!

Lillian was a great sitter for my cat! She came over daily, sat with him, took photos, and cleaned up any accidents that occurred. I would hire her again.

"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)."
