JeNan $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Je’Nan, I have my associate degree in Human Sciences. I’m offering childcare and household services. I truly enjoy working with children and have been caring for infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. I’m a responsible driver with a clean driving record, and I love engaging kids through role-play and by creating funny, cool, and silly imaginary stories. In addition to childcare, I offer help with cooking, dishes, running errands, and even housesitting! I’m also a cat lover and have two black cats of my own: Aswad (which means “black” in Arabic—my mom named him because she always said if she ever got a black cat, that’s what she’d name him!) and Egypt. Thank you for considering me—I hope to connect with you soon!

Maya 1 review
$17 per hour for 1 child

I have been working with kids for a very long time with family and outside of family. I love having fun and also being open and experiencing New things. I have also worked with a summer camp (Therapeutic Recreation) with kids with disabilities so I am open and willing to work with all types of kids. I’m also down to do long term and look for a place and a family to grow with and learn! I’ve also dog sat and am willing to clean around the house if needed. Will also negotiate price if needed! Thank you.

“Maya is a very sweet girl, she is always on time, communication is on point, she is very flexible. She took care of my 7 year old son and took care of my 8 month old puppy frenchie. Never had no problems Maya is the best!”

Booked by 1 family in Derwood, MD

Hi! My name is Naomi. I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2023. I nannied for 2 families consistently in MD while in college and have been working corporate since then. Before moving to MD I lived in California for the first part of my life, including high school, during which I worked with children for about four years. I did child care for Southlands Church for many years and was requested to work with families based off of my work with their kids during that job. I spent years working with the same kids, watching them grow up and developing relationships with them. I’ve always loved child care. Working with kids, learning more about them, their quirks and senses of humor and watching them develop into little humans. It’s so important to invest into kids lives to make them feel important and loved and I find a lot of value in being a part of that.

Jenifer $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jenifer, I’m 22 years old, and I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I’m currently a phlebotomy student and have hands on healthcare training, which has taught me the importance of patience, safety, communication, and staying calm in unexpected situations. I’m also CPR certified and have basic medical and first-aid knowledge, so your child’s safety will always be one of my top priorities. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable creating a positive environment where children can feel safe and be themselves. Whether that means playing games, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, keeping up with routines, or just being someone they feel comfortable around, I’m happy to help. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I would love the opportunity to become a reliable and trusted sitter for your family!

"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)."
