Hi! I am Charleen, a 21 year old college student studying Business and Art, based in Silver Spring, MD. I offer childcare, pet care, tutoring, and light household help. I have a lot of experience with kids of different ages. I helped raise my younger brother and have also babysat toddlers and young kids for many families. I love making everyday activities fun, whether it is doing crafts, listening to music, having snack breaks, or going for walks and playing at the park. I am bloodborne pathogens certified and always prioritize safety, patience, and good decision making. While I am not CPR certified yet, I have strong problem solving skills and stay calm in any situation. I also have plenty of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and have been pet sitting for several years. I have a little dog of my own named Snowball, he’s an 10 year old Maltese and is the sweetest baby ever. If you are looking for someone who is dependable, easygoing, and great with kids and pets, I would love to connect with your family!

Charleen was great! My daughter and pup had so much fun with her. Highly recommend.

Hello! I’m Dasha, I just recently graduated from the Air Force Academy and have moved to D.C for my job. I am offering childcare, senior care, and household care services. For my experience, in college I worked at Philmont as a scout ranger for kids in middle school and high school and taught them to backpack in the back country of New Mexico. I also nannied all through out high school for 2 boys who were 4 and 6 years old. My job included tutoring, crafts, driving to and from school, and cooking. I also babysat different families in my neighborhood. I also am a basketball coach for a 8-10 year old girls team which I have done for 2 seasons now. I love it since I played basketball in college and every opportunity to give back and teach what I’ve learned I’m all over it! I also don’t mind working with families with cats or dogs. Additionally can do household errands and can cook, clean, and run errands.

Dasha was amazing! She was very communicative and took great care of my dog Aspen! Highly recommend!!

"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)."
