Khari $26 per hour for 1 child

I have over 5 years of experience babysitting. I am great with ensuring routines are followed. I love to find creative activities such as building with toys together, reading books before bedtime, or going to the library if traveling. I am comfortable cooking vegetarian meals and I am knowledgeable on nutrition. I am a nutrition major and babysitting to pay tuition. I also offer tutoring in English, math, science, and percussion instruments if needed.

Kinara $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a Howard University graduate (B.A. in Afro-American Studies, Cum Laude) with hands-on experience as a paraprofessional and tutor at a DC Montessori charter school, working closely with kids on academics, behavior support, and creative learning. I am especially talented with helping school aged children find their love of learning and encourage creativity as I myself am a writer. I’m patient, warm, and naturally good at making learning fun — I love bringing music, art, and storytelling into everyday activities. This fall I’m starting my Master of Social Work focused on child wellbeing, so this work is genuinely part of my path, not just a job. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and comfortable with pets too (cat mom to a tuxedo cat named Luna). I’d love to bring energy and care to your family this summer!

Booked by 1 family in Capitol Heights, MD

My name is Brenda. I'm a 32-year-old preschool teacher with 14 years of experience caring for children. I have an associate’s degree in Elementary Education and Special Needs, along with a 90-hour Child Development Certification, 45-hour Infant & Toddler Certificate, and CPR/First Aid certification. I'm nurturing, reliable, and passionate about creating safe, fun, and enriching environments for children of all ages.

Brenda was amazing! Never have I experienced anyone be able to keep my twins calm throughout the day like she did. I am so happy I came across Brenda and will definitely be reaching out to her in the future. She is tremendously respectful, responsible, and professional! 💗💗💗

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
