Nurturing young minds is my passion! With 5 years of experience caring for children aged newborn to six, I bring a patient, creative, and friendly approach to childcare. My previous babysitting and nannying roles solidified my desire to positively impact children's lives, and l am eager to foster their growth and development. I love to do arts and crafts, sing songs, read books, teach cooking skills, and go on walks to the playground, and library. I have experience with baby lead weaning, potty training, supporting physical therapy, and baby development. I have a high school diploma and speak both English and Spanish. I can provide regular updates via text or phone call and always follow your preferred communication methods. I also follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules. I am also willing to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and am comfortable with pets.

Gaby is incredible! She has babysat for my 3 boys for the past six years. She is reliable, trustworthy, and so amazing with kids. My boys light up when she gets to our house. She is intuitive and patient with babies and toddlers and imaginative and fun with older kids. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!

Hello! I'm an author and narrative strategist looking to supplement my freelance income while I edit my first book. I worked as a camp counselor (Potomac School, Ligonier Camp) before heading off to NYC for my former life as an editor (Martha Stewart, NBCUniversal); now in my mid-30s, I'm excited to revive my skills as a part-time babysitter. If you're looking for curiosity, calm authority, and an artistic presence who's always down for creative play, I'm your gal. I also do a killer read-aloud bedtime story.

Booked by 1 family in Glen Echo, MD

Hi! My name is Rokhaya. Caring for children has always been a big part of my life, not just as a job, but as family. As the firstborn of five younger siblings, I’ve been actively caring for infants and children since I was 13. Being the oldest taught me responsibility, patience, and how to nurture children with love and consistency. Professionally, I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and have experience with a wide range of ages (including twins), from five-month-old infants to toddlers, preschoolers, and older children up to 10 years old. I’m comfortable adjusting to each child’s needs, routines, and personality, whether that means bottle-feeding, playtime, helping with homework, or simply creating a calm and safe environment. I’m known for being very warm, gentle, and attentive. I genuinely love children, and that shows in the way I care for them. I enjoy creating positive, joyful spaces through music, outdoor time, and creative activities. I also love nature, which often inspires calm play and meaningful connection with kids. I’m bilingual and speak both English and French fluently, which can be a great asset for families looking to expose their children to another language. Overall, I take pride in being reliable, nurturing, and present, and I treat every child I care for as if they were my own.

Booked by 3 families in Glen Echo, MD

Hello my name is Juanita and I've been a nanny, babysitter and teacher for 15 years. I have experience with caring for children between the ages of 3mos.-13yrs.old(some children with special needs). I've also worked in three different day cares and volunteered in 1st and 5th grade elementary school classes. I am what people may call a "traveling nanny". I travel anywhere in the U.S. with families. If you're interested in my services, I can provide you with as many references as you may need. Thank you and I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Juanita did a great job watching my son when he was home sick from school. He was really fussy and she dealt with it very well.

"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)."
