Booked by 1 family in Silver Spring, MD

I’m a Georgetown resident living here with my husband and our friendly Bernedoodle, Goose. We recently moved to DC after finishing business school at Dartmouth, and outside of my 9–5 job, I’m hoping to earn a bit of extra income. I have extensive childcare experience and feel very comfortable with children of all ages. I’m the oldest of four siblings and come from a very large family (32 first cousins on my mom’s side!), so caring for kids has been a constant part of my life. In addition, I babysat regularly throughout high school and college. I’m responsible, calm, and engaged. I am happy to help with everything from playtime and homework to bedtime routines. I’m flexible for evenings and weekends. Feel free to reach out. I’d love to connect!

Fiona took excellent care of our pet while we were away and was friendly and reliable. We would not hesitate to use her again!

Hi Families, my name is Panya. I'm a 26-year-old registered nurse working in a critical care setting. Before becoming a nurse, I was an Au Pair, Nanny, and Senior caregiver. I have three months of experience in the level 3 NICU unit in my last semester of nursing school. I love working with kids and dream of becoming a mom one day.

Iara $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Iara, a caring, responsible, and organized nanny with over 3 years of experience working with children of different ages. I spent a year and a half as an au pair caring for two little girls, ages 1 and 3, and I currently work as a nanny for two children, ages 8 and 9. I also have experience caring for newborns and feel comfortable with babies, toddlers, and school-aged children. I love spending time with kids, planning fun activities, playing outside, doing arts and crafts, going to the park, and helping with their daily routines. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping, kids' laundry, meal prep, organizing, or other household tasks when needed. I'm a native Spanish speaker, a confident driver, and I really value having good communication with parents. My goal is always to create a safe, caring, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable and happy.

Booked by 1 family in Silver Spring, MD

Hello! My name is Tania. I have 5+ years of experience caring for children of all ages! Families describe me as reliable, calm, and great with routines. I have worked through care.com & at Loving Care daycare for 3 years as a lead teacher. I’m a creative soul who loves planning arts, crafts, and fun games to keep kids engaged and happy. I'm fully CPR/First Aid certified, ServSafe trained for safe meals, and have a professional background in dentistry, real estate, and social work. So your little ones (and pets!) are in incredibly safe & clean hands. Let's connect!

Tania was absolutely wonderful and took amazing care of my cats while I was away for over two weeks. She visited twice a day without fail, spent time playing with them, cleaned their litter box, and reliably administered medication to one of my cats. She also sent pictures after every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away and let me see how the cats were doing. She was incredibly responsible, attentive, and communicative, and she had no trouble navigating my apartment building or getting in and out for each visit. She also kept everything clean and tidy, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, I could tell that she genuinely cared about my cats and went beyond simply stopping by to take care of the essentials. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and a clean apartment. I would absolutely recommend Tania to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and caring cat sitter. I would definitely book her again!

"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

"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)."
