Kedija $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi. My name is Kedija. I am a mother of 3 children and have raised them each to the ages of 5, 12, and 17. I’ve homeschooled my two oldest for over six years now. I am a licensed driver, have my own transportation, and have a clean driving record. I can take care of children up to 9 years old, seniors (non-medical), and am willing to provide some light household services (light food preparation, organizing, light cleaning).

Booked by 2 families in Derwood, MD

I am a vibrant, energetic, enthusiastic adult who consistently enjoys working with children of all ages. I was privileged to baby sit my two sisters from birth till they both became teenagers. In addition, I have worked with different families by which I nanny and offer babysitting services. Throughout my experiences, I am capable of changing diapers, feeding and bathing children, potty training, setting up schedules and supervise /monitor behaviors. Because of my vibrant and energetic demeanor, I enjoy having children engaged by singing, playing games, outdoor activities, arts and also educational activities that are age appropriate. I am honest, trustworthy, reliable, punctual, flexible, alert, compassionate and nurturing. Feel free to contact me as I look forward to providing you with my service.

“Lenora is wonderful! She has great experience with little ones and a kind, warm approach. She’s also great at putting first time moms (me) at ease about routines etc and was happy to take any steps I requested for covid safety with our 3 month old. We look forward to her watching our daughter again soon!”

Thanat 1 review
$15 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of childcare experience including 2 years as an Au pair. I love being around children, and I am so obviously enjoyed interacting with them. I am responsible, focus, gentle, neat and be on time. I am full vaccinated. I have my own transportation and would love to discuss job responsibilities/expectations

“Benz (Thanat) is amazing! He took care of my son, 5 days a week from ages 2-3 and has become part of the family. My son tells me frequently how much he loves Benz and how Benz plays the best games. He is reliable, caring, and can match energy with the calmest or wildest of kids. I was nervous how my son would do switching from all female care takers (other than his Dad) to a male sitter/nanny and I can say Benz was perfect. They would go on daily walks through the neighborhood and he kept my son happily entertained while we worked from home. Any family that gets to work with Benz is lucky and we are looking forward to our special Benz visits! Coming back to update, after having several different nanny/sitters since my son started preschool, I have really come to appreciate Benz even more. He is amazing reliable and responsible. In the year he was with us, he was never more than a few minuets late (due to the buses on the only road in and out of our neighborhood) and I always heard from him when he had any issues or questions. He is a wonderful person and a extraordinary sitter. My son talks about him almost every day and how much he loves him.”

"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)."
