Maeve $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a working professional who is looking for some part time work as a sitter! I graduated from Loyola Maryland in 2022 with a degree in Sociology and minor in marketing and writing. After school I did the Disney College Program and then moved to the DC area. I come from a large family so have been around kids my whole life! I’ve been babysitting since high school. I have worked as an after school aide, town recreation supervisor, and youth sports coach - all equipped me with different but important skills for working with kids. Right now I work full time during the week but am available for weekdays after school/ evenings and weekends I am happy to hop on a call and discuss your needs and how I can fit in to help your family!

Maty $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Maty, and I’m a high school senior about to graduate. I grew up helping care for my younger siblings and nieces, and I used to live with my grandparents, which gave me early experience with both child and senior care. I’m kind, reliable, and love creating a safe, fun space for kids, whether that means helping with homework, storytelling, or outdoor play. I’ve also helped my mom with senior caregiving, including cooking, companionship, and errands. I’m bilingual in French and English, comfortable with dogs, and happy to help with light housework or tutoring as well.

Hi! I’m an upbeat, positive, energetic person who loves working with kids. I’m super creative and love arts and crafts projects. I’ve been a summer camp counselor and “fun director” for 10–12-year-olds for five years with an organization called Table of Hope and I currently study Political Science and Spanish at Howard University.

"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)."
