Hello Families, My name is Eboni and I’m 31 years old. I’ve been babysitting and working with kids since I was 14 years old. I’ve use urbansitter in the years of 2[removed] and took a break to travel and focus on my career in the government. I wanted to come back because I’ve seen that with the events of things going on in the world I know that moms and dads need much needed breaks and resets. I love spending time with the kiddos and I also don’t mind tending to your pets, plants, doing household chores and even cooking dinner or helping with meal prep.

Booked by 3 families in Fort Washington, MD

My name is Paula, I'm 29 years old, and I've been caring for children for over 7 years, from newborns to 14 years old. My most recent experience is caring for an 11-month-old baby full-time, Monday through Friday, for the past 7 months. I've also cared for an 9-month-old baby for about 8 months, and a 2.5-year-old girl for approximately 2 years. Some of the activities I do with babies include early stimulation to improve their motor skills. I have experience in stimulation with exercises such as tummy time, learning to crawl, and mental stimulation of babies (colors, textures, letters, words). I do activities with them and am fully responsible for their feeding and clothing. I'm currently looking for part-time work, as I'm free on Saturdays and Sundays. I'm a very good driver, with over 10 years of experience, a driver's license, and a clean record. I'm also responsible, patient, committed, punctual, cheerful, and trustworthy. I love my family and animals very much. In short, I really enjoy caring for them, loving them, and teaching them that it is the best legacy of love we can leave.

Paula is amazing with my 18 month year old. She started working with us when she was 6 months and has been invaluable since. She has helped my daughter crawling and then walking. She is great handling my daughter and German Shepard. She is soo gentle and has soo much patience. keeps her active at all times and constantly challenging her to thrive. She takes her to the library all the time and likes to read. She give me peace of mind and I know when I have to go to work she will be in safe hands.

Hello my name is Stephanie, and I am currently a student a NOVA. I have been babysitting for 5years now. I love taking care of kids. It’s a best way to spend my day, and it is also preparing me for handling my own kids someday. I love to be surrounded by kids because you become more creative and resourceful, and no feeling is better than when a kid says that you’re their favorite babysitter. So I make sure that the kids are have fun and enjoy my company. I also passionate about teaching so while babysitting I can help your kid with their homework and teach them French because I am a French speaker.

"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
