Clara $25 per hour for 1 child

My experience caring for children covers babysitting/nannying to special education within the public school system. I have cared for children from infants to young adults exiting the public school system, and have enjoyed seeing the children I have served thrive. For the past year and I have been working as a nanny/housekeeper for a family of five in the Palisade area in DC. So here I am looking for another family/families to serve.

Bukola $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bukola, and I’m a caring and dependable mother of three children ages 3, 9, and 11. Being a mom has given me hands-on experience caring for children at different stages of development. Safety, consistency, and kindness are always my top priorities. I’m calm, patient, and nurturing, while also providing structure and support when needed. I am currently working toward becoming a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), which has strengthened my skills in behavior support, positive reinforcement, and understanding children’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with meal prep, homework help, bedtime routines, and engaging children in age-appropriate activities. I would love the opportunity to provide reliable, loving care for your family.

Drawing from over six years of hands-on experience in early childhood education. My experience in the AlphaBest program & in my current nanny role in Bethesda, where I spend 40 hours a week with three children-an infant, a preschooler, and a first-grader. I help with homework, prepare meals, manage laundry, and ensure smooth school routines. In addition to my professional experiences, I bring a wealth of qualifications to the table, prioritizing a safe and healthy environment as a non-smoker, holding CPR/First Aid certification for unforeseen situations, completing a 90-hour certification in infant, toddler, and preschool care, currently pursuing a degree in early childhood education, and undertaking a course to become a certified newborn care specialist, all reflecting my dedication to staying informed and providing comprehensive care. I believe in leading with kindness and teamwork, dedicated to shouldering responsibilities while fostering a collaborative and supportive atmosphere. I’ve joined this app to earn extra money for school expenses, leveraging my free time on weekends and during half-days throughout the week. With my childcare experience, I aim to make a positive contribution. I’m more than willing to share reference emails to verify my background. Let me know how I can assist!

Booked by 1 family in Darnestown, MD

Hello parents😊! My name is Lehna, I am a 20 years old part time online college student who is a Behavioral Health/Social Worker major. I'd describe my personality as Compassionate, Patient and Friendly. I like working with kids because I love the youth and want to play a part in influencing and encouraging the next generation! I'm looking for a job that feels like family. Where I am able to connect with the kids as well as the parents. I started working with kids when I was in middle school. I used to volunteer at elementary school activities all the way up until high school. I also was always the family member/friend called to help watch the kids when the parents needed a break. I also recently worked at a daycare with all ages as an assistant teacher. In my spare time, I like to read and watch my favorite movies and shows! One thing you should know about me is I have a very huge heart and am always striving to make others comfortable!

“My kids had lots of fun with Lehna! She is such a sweetheart and we will definitely book with her again. ”

"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)."
