$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Capitol Heights, MD

Hi there! I’m a warm, reliable caregiver with years of experience supporting children, seniors, and pets. I’ve worked as a daycare assistant, after-school instructor, and family sitter, always bringing patience, creativity, and structure to every day. I’m trained in early childhood development, homework help, and safe play. I also grew up with four Labradors and helped my brother with dog breeding, so I’m confident around pets too. Whether it’s preparing meals, engaging little ones in learning, or simply providing a calm, kind presence, I’m here to support your household with care you can trust.

Jennifer was punctual and professional! Our baby was asleep so we did not need her to do any child care, but she was great with our dog.

$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Capitol Heights, MD

Hi - My name is Dili and I'm currently a master’s student at American University. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, and toddlers since I was 15 years old. Though I’m newer to professional child care, I have experience babysitting within my family, always being the designated sitter. I'm excited to bring my positive attitude, creativity, and patience skills to families. I grew up with a single mom for half of my life and know how important having a sitter can be for families. My nana was one of my best friends growing up and I would love to bring that to other families. I also understand the importance of parents being able to connect and have some alone or having multiple responsibilities all while needing for their children to be safe and well care for.

Cinijah'nija $25 per hour for 1 child

I have over five years of experience working in childcare and education, and I am passionate about supporting children’s growth and development in safe, fun, and nurturing environments. I hold a paraprofessional license, am CPR certified, and currently serve as the lead paraprofessional at a school, where I work closely with students to encourage both their academic and social success. Through my work, I have gained valuable skills in classroom management, patience, creativity, and communication with both children and families. I am a very positive and dependable person who enjoys making every child feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for. In addition to working with children, I also enjoy spending time with elderly adults and believe in showing kindness and compassion to people of all ages. I love animals as well, and I am comfortable caring for pets in the home.

"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)."
