Lily $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Glen Echo, MD

Greetings, I am a college student at the University of Vermont studying Social Work. Due to illness in the family, I am returning home to Bethesda Maryland for my spring semester. As I am home, I would like to capitalize on this opportunity by returning to my passion for childcare. I previously worked in a daycare setting with ages 0-5, and I have mine state child care certification in Vermont. Additionally, I have babysat extensively and worked as a sleep away camp counselor. I am passionate about meeting each unique child where they are and providing appropriate developmental environments. I love incorporating the outdoors, messy play, fine and gross motor activities, and educational opportunities. I believe each child is unique and I strive to go into interactions with an open mind and spirit. Outside of childcare, I am passionate about riding horses, reading, making stained glass, and the outdoors. Additionally, I am happy to help with household chores, pet care, and elder support.

Hi, I’m Henry! I’m an 18 year old recent graduate from Sidwell Friends School planning on attending the University of Chicago after a gap year.

Booked by 2 families in Glen Echo, MD

Hi! I'm Amelia! I am a recent graduate of American University. I have plans to go down the social work route and find a career that helps children reach their full potential. I started babysitting when I was only 13 which continued throughout high school and college. I absolutely loved the experience. Although I do look after my cousin's toddlers occasionally, I am mostly familiar with taking care of children ages 5+. I am looking for a part/full time care position that can be on a long or short term basis. Please do not hesitate to reach out.

Catherine $30 per hour for 1 child

My priority is the safety of the kids and make sure they feel comfortable and safe and happy. Ive been working with this family for 5years and i also work part time with other families. First kid was 9 months. And after a year the mom gets pregnant for the second child. My priority is make sure baby feed and change and get a walk everyday for fresh air. Every morning when i start, I’ll cooke some breakfast and change them and take outside to go to playground. When the kids is napping i will clean up, like load dishes and unload and wash bottles, do some laundry and make sure to put it away after. Meal prep and i also love taking dog outside for a walk. I love dogs. I can send my resume together with the reference contact information. I also fully vaccinated and CPR certification.

"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)."
