Booked by 1 family in Elkridge, MD

Hi, my name is Kimlee. I’m a graduate student with a strong passion for caregiving. I have experience in childcare, senior care, and household services. I enjoy babysitting because it allows me to create a safe, fun, and educational environment where children feel supported and cared for. Families often describe me as patient, dependable, and nurturing. I take pride in being attentive to children’s needs, whether it’s helping with homework, playing creative games, or ensuring their daily routines run smoothly. I’m equally comfortable assisting seniors with daily activities and offering companionship. Caring for others is something I truly love, and I strive to bring kindness, responsibility, and positive energy to every family I work with.

$18 per hour for 1 child

My name is Sheri Jones and I'm applying to be a caregiver because I love children. I have an autistic child that is now 18 years old who always required special care and I know how hard it is to find childcare for any child, but for a special needs child, it can be nearly impossible. I'm caring, loving, playful, and safe. Thank you!

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
