Im from a very large family & started care taking for my grandmother and babysitting family members/ family friends children at a very young age so I love to be around children! I just recently completed my Bachelors my degree in Sociology and currently work with the elderly and those with mental and physical disabilities . I have years of experience as a professional nanny caring for children ages 6 months-13 yrs. I am reliable, attentive, and observant. Safety is my number one objective! Keeping children safe involves a lot of supervision, and that is one of my strongest areas. I have my own, reliable vehicle. Education is very important to me and I believe setting aside some time during the day for educational exercises or school work is vital to the growth and well being of a child. I can assist with class projects and homework assignments. I am willing to keep your children entertained with fun outdoor activities, such as, zoo, museum and park visits. I know children can have a hard time with new people while mommy and daddy are away but I'm also great at board games, arts & crafts ,hide and seek etc

Natalia $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Natalia. I’m Colombian, 30 years old, and currently live in the Elkridge, Maryland area. I am looking for a full-time nanny position with a family that can offer some flexibility with my school schedule. I have several years of professional childcare experience with children ranging from 3 months to 12 years old. I was an au pair in Syracuse, New York, from November 2019 to August 2022, where I cared for two little girls, including the oldest from the time she was just 4 months old. After moving to Maryland, I worked as a full-time nanny from March 2023 to March 2024, caring for a little girl who was also 4 months old when I started. I transitioned from full-time childcare to pursue my legal career in the United States. I currently work as a Paralegal and am pursuing my LL.M. part-time at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law. Although I enjoy working in the legal field, I truly miss working with children and would love to find the right family to work with full-time while completing my graduate studies. I am available full-time Monday through Friday, with the exception of Thursday 11am to 1pm due to an in-person class. I am happy to discuss a schedule that works well for both the family and my academic commitment. I consider myself responsible, caring, outgoing, and active. I genuinely enjoy playing with children, planning age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, and supporting their development. I am also a native Spanish speaker and would be happy to speak Spanish with your children if your family is interested in bilingual exposure. I have extensive infant and toddler experience, and the safety, happiness, and well-being of the children in my care are always my priority. I am primarily looking for a family in Elkridge, Maryland, or the surrounding areas, and I would love to find a position with a family that values communication, reliability, and a positive relationship with their nanny. Please feel free to reach out if you think we might be a good fit. I would love to hear more about your family and your childcare needs! Natalia P.

Booked by 2 families in Catonsville, MD

Hello, my name is ChiChi, I offer child care, senior care and household services. I love being a babysitter/ nanny and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, school-age children as well as twins since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included dropoffs/pickups, tutoring, coaching, playtime, games, crafts, feeding, naptime and more. As a parent, I understand the importance of creating a safe and engaging environment to meet developmental needs while prioritizing comfort and well-being. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean and run errands. I have been a caretaker for older family members and can drive to assist with appointments, cook and other tasks. I am allergic to cats though happy to work with families with small dogs. Families describe me as warm, reliable, and intuitive. I’m flexible with scheduling and open to discussing routines that work best for your household.

“Chichi is very friendly and communicates very well. I look forward to working with her in the future”

Londyn $18 per hour for 1 child

Although I’ve just moved to urban sitter I have years of experience with child sitting being the eldest of a big family, they noticed that I am great with sitting shortly after and it moved to families who were not mine. Bringing joy and nurturing care to children is my passion. For the past two years, I've dedicated myself to creating engaging and supportive environments for children of all ages to start it off I made sure to get my CPR certification. My background in ECE during summer programs, & babysitting provided me with the skills to foster their growth through creative activities, educational games, and active outdoor play. I am patient, imaginative, and always approachable. I enjoy playing board games and puzzles. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. I am also happy to help with cooking and light housekeeping. I prioritize clear communication with parents, following your preferred method for daily updates or addressing any concerns. I also follow your lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. Knowing I can positively impact a child's life and support your family means a lot to me! I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you and your little ones!

"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."

"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)."
