Booked by 1 family in Kettering, MD

Hi! My name is Jahiyyah. Ever since I was younger, I’ve always known that I loved being around children and working with them, which has lead me to where I am today. I’m currently in college, majoring in Early Childhood Education. I also work full time at a Reggio Emilia inspired preschool in DC, so I’m available on weekends and occasionally on weekday evenings. A few fun facts about me: I love reading, writing, anything arts and crafts related, and traveling. When babysitting, I love to bring different activities - depending on the kids’ ages - to keep them engaged (coloring books, watercolor paint, air dry clay, puzzles/board games, etc.) as well as walks around the neighborhood/to a local park for some fresh air. I’m also open to any other activities they’re interested in. I would love to build a consistent, lasting relationship with a group of families to sit for on date nights, special events, etc. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to connecting with your families!

Paige $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Paige, and I’m a caring, dependable, and creative childcare provider with experience working with children of various ages in nannying, daycare, and activity-based settings. I genuinely love being around children and take pride in creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where they feel seen, supported, and free to be themselves. I’m naturally nurturing, patient, and intuitive, which helps me connect with children easily and build trusting relationships. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading, outdoor time, and gentle learning moments that support emotional, social, and developmental growth. I’m also very attentive to routines, boundaries, and family preferences, and I always prioritize safety and communication. Families often describe me as warm, responsible, and emotionally present. I’m comfortable supporting daily routines like meals, naps, homework help, and bedtime, and I understand how important consistency and structure are for children to thrive. I’m also happy to help with light child-related tasks and maintain a positive, peaceful atmosphere in the home. Above all, I care deeply about children’s well-being and believe every child deserves patience, respect, and loving guidance. I would love the opportunity to support your family and create meaningful, joyful experiences with your little ones.

"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."

"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)."
