Kedija $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi. My name is Kedija. I am a mother of 3 children and have raised them each to the ages of 5, 12, and 17. I’ve homeschooled my two oldest for over six years now. I am a licensed driver, have my own transportation, and have a clean driving record. I can take care of children up to 9 years old, seniors (non-medical), and am willing to provide some light household services (light food preparation, organizing, light cleaning). I can read small children’s books for kids and can play and get along with them very well. I have worked for a mother of 3 young children for a whole school year as a babysitter. I am a very friendly, reliable, and hardworking. I remember and follow rules well. I am also willing to work anytime between 9 a.m. and 10 p.m. But make sure to check my availability just in case I’m not available at these times! Thank you!

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Laurel, MD

My name is Dulce and I am currently working as an early childhood educator. As a teacher I work with children and I love my job. I have taken care of children of varying ages. I like to think of myself as a dedicated, lovely and caring person and I think that dedication comes from my personality in the fact that any venture I take on I will put in my best and also the great responsibility it is to assist and develop a young person. Since I have a full time job I am only available for occasional weekend babysitting.

Alessandra $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Alessandra I’m bilingual in Spanish and English, and I’m in my first year at Montgomery College. I LOVE working/ spending time with kids! I currently work at a school program with kids and I have been there for about 3 years now. I have also worked in a school setting at an elementary school! I’ve babysat my two baby nieces since birth, and have babysat many other kids since high school so I’m very comfortable with kids of any age. With five dogs at home, I’m also great with pets! I’m super patient, organized, and love making kids laugh. I enjoy arts & crafts, storytelling, keeping things tidy and making kids feel happy and safe.

Arielle $19 per hour for 1 child

I've been working with children since my first job as a lifeguard when I was 16. I have most experience teaching swimming to children from infancy (parent assisted) through school-aged kids. I've taught at a public and private pool. I also have 2 years experience working as a private home tutor for a 3 year old child with special needs, where I was trained daily & weekly to meet their needs and adjust play/learning techniques to build their language and communication skills. I am recent experience as a teacher for infants at a daycare/preschool center where i was for just under 2 years. This job required me to create and implement a monthly lesson plan involving speech, art and motor development activities, serving meals, changing the children regularly, and just plain old having fun. I would be delighted to talk more in depth about what kind of care you are looking for. When it comes to pet sitting, I think of myself as an ideal candidate! I'm a huge animal lover and have cared for cats and dogs throughout my life. I have plenty experience taking care of cats and dogs and find myself very comfortable in households that have one or the other (or even better, both!) Please feel free to reach out should you have any questions!

Fatoumata

$19 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Laurel, MD

Hello! My name is Fatoumata, but most call me Fatima. I am a college senior, public health major looking for experience working with children. I love working with children, in fact, before entering college, I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. After some time I decided that I want to work in pediatrics as a pediatric physician assistant. I worked in before and after school care with Celebree for about a full school year. My job consisted of helping with homework, giving snacks, and of course watching over the children. I am CPR and First Aid certified and I am a certified med tech as well. Also, I used to babysit, not with a company specifically, which included supervision, meal prepping, and nannying/house work.

"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)."
