I like taking care of children and spending time to play with them , teach them new things or going to the park,coloring books, sing ,dance,or whatever they like to make them feel friends with me,I’m very nice person and kind , every child would like me once meeting, being a caregiver makes me feel great ,when I’m taking care of someone like child, senior,or doing things for them like shopping, cooking, any house duties and being a caregiver or a babysitter is the best thing because it’s makes me feel like an hero for families in needs, I’ll never disappoint anyone who will choose me, I know sometimes it’s not easy to believe someone you just picked from the application to take care of your children or anyone from your family because most of the people are not good enough or don’t really like children but I want to tell the future family who will accept me to not be afraid because I’m a married woman who knows the meaning of family or what means to take care of someone, how to treat them, how to make them feel good or happy , this work is not only about money but also about love, I enjoy meeting new people and making them feel special ,why not to assit them to any tasks of daily living, feeding, bathing, cooking, the family who will choose me will makes me feel special and important because of their awareness from me . One more thing I want to share is that I’m new in the application but I used to work as a caregiver for almost 4 years , I know it’ll not be easy for a lot of parents to choose me because of that but I know and believe that one family will like me and choose me. thanks for your reading and hope seeing you soon and I hope you to choose me as your ear and eyes .🥰

Alessandra $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Alessandra I’m bilingual in Spanish and English, and I’m in my first year at Montgomery College. I LOVE working/ spending time with kids! I currently work at a school program with kids and I have been there for about 3 years now. I have also worked in a school setting at an elementary school! I’ve babysat my two baby nieces since birth, and have babysat many other kids since high school so I’m very comfortable with kids of any age. With five dogs at home, I’m also great with pets! I’m super patient, organized, and love making kids laugh. I enjoy arts & crafts, storytelling, keeping things tidy and making kids feel happy and safe.

Janice $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a dependable and experienced caregiver with 9 years of hands on childcare experience. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with families in a variety of roles from babysitting and tutoring, to leading groups of kids at summer camp and afterschool programs. I’ve cared for children who are up to 16 years old (mostly school aged children aged 5-12), and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them to grow and thrive. Whether it’s helping with homework, making dinner, cleaning up, putting them to bed, heading out to the park, or even binge watching their favorite movies on repeat (you would not believe how many times I’ve seen The Minions movies lol), I’m there with patience, energy, and a smile. I’ve also worked as an in home tutor for five years, specializing in Chinese, English, and math, which means I’m well versed in keeping kids focused and engaged academically, too. In addition to childcare, I have a lifelong love for animals. I grew up with five pit bulls in my home and have always been comfortable around pets of all kinds. I’ve petsat for friends and family, sometimes for up to two months at a time; making sure their pets were well cared for, exercised, fed, and loved while they were away. Families know me as approachable, responsible, and genuinely invested in the wellbeing of the kids and pets I care for. I bring heart, structure, and flexibility to every home I step into, and I’m always ready to help however I can.

Booked by 1 family in Capitol Heights, MD

Hi, I’m Eliza! I’m the oldest of four sisters, so taking care of little ones has been a part of my life from a young age! I have hands-on experience with children of different ages. I cared for a newborn for almost a year and also looked after a 7-year-old girl for a year. Currently, I work full-time caring for a newborn and a toddler, but I’m available to weekends and weeknights babysitting opportunities. I’m certified in CPR and have completed a specialized course in newborn care. I have experience with everything from feeding, bathing, and playing to putting children to sleep and driving them safely when needed. I truly love working with babies and toddlers. I believe each stage of childhood is special, and I’m well-prepared to support and care for children with love, patience, and responsibility. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, nurturing, and experienced to care for your little ones, I’d be happy to help!

Eliza was wonderful; she arrived right on time, got the kids fed, and even came prepared with a fun activity (balloons to make balloon animals), which our kids absolutely loved and are already begging for her to come back. What impressed us most is that she successfully put both kids to bed, which can be genuinely challenging in our house and is where many babysitters struggle. She was also very communicative both before the job and throughout the evening, which made everything feel easy and stress-free. Highly recommend!

Nicol 1 review

Booked by 2 families in Capitol Heights, MD

Hi! My name is Nicol, and I truly enjoy caring for kids and supporting families. I'm patient, responsible, creative, and friendly. I communicate with parents through daily reports, texts, or phone calls, always respecting their preferred method. I have my First Aid and CPR certification and more than 4 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and older children. I love playing all kinds of games with kids! Arts and crafts are definitely a favorite--I love making things together! I also enjoy puzzles, video games, and educational games. I've even played games to help teach Spanish to kids I've cared for too! And of course, I enjoy outdoor activities, like hiking, volleyball, or just playing outside. I'm open to anything that keeps the kids happy and learning while having fun (and of course with the parents authorization) . My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children feel supported and cared for.

Nico is a great babysitter. We have used her multiple multiple times over the years. She started with us when we just had one, and now she watches both our boys. She’s very warm, and the babies like having her as their sitter. She’s easy to work with and communicative. She was our friend’s au pair, as well, until her kids were both in school. She’s trustworthy and you should give her a chance! She’s the best!

"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)."
