Sharonda

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 9 families in Suitland, MD

Hello, I'm Sharonda! I recently began a doctoral program studying curriculum and instruction. I have a Master of Arts in Teaching English from Trinity Washington University, and love enriching literacy activities that engage learners in a variety of ways. I've tutored, taught, and volunteered with elementary and secondary aged children, locally and internationally, for the past 9 years. I love providing childcare because I find interacting with children to be joyous and rewarding. Children are adventurous, have a great sense of humor, and bring many opportunities for learning and exploration because of their curiosity. As one who is passionate about education, building healthy connections with children is an essential practice. In my spare time, I love creative writing (short stories, essays, and poetry), reading (especially in libraries, boutique bookstores), crafting (jewelry making, drawing/coloring, and DIY projects), spending time outdoors, and occasionally watching television programs about travel and nature (I'm also a Marvel fan). If there is any additional information you'd like to receive, please don't hesitate to request it.

Sharonda was a wonderful caretaker for my toddler! Incredibly easy to communicate with and she helped my toddler get to bed, even when she’s going through a difficult sleep time. She provided awesome updates of hanging out with my daughter. I look forward to having Sharonda around again!

Booked by 26 families in Suitland, MD

Hi! My name is Lily. I am currently in my second year of law school. I am offering occasional and one time childcare and pet care services in the DC/Northern Virginia area. I have been babysitting since I was a teenager. I have taken care of all ages at various times within the past 12 years (babies to middle schoolers). Throughout my college career and the year after graduation, I had several full time nannying jobs at various times. My responsibilities at past jobs have included driving to/from various appointments, school, and after-school activities, helping with homework, and coming up with fun activities on summer and weekend days. I am also Red Cross CPR certified for both infants and children/adults. I also always make sure to clean up after meals, activities, etc. I am comfortable working with families who have pets, and am always happy to help out with them (walk the dog, feed any pets, etc.) as needed! I am experienced with pet-sitting as well. I have a dog at home, and grew up with many pets.

Lily was great! Our daughter loved hanging out with her.

Wendy 3 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Suitland, MD

A little bit about me… Families often tell me I bring a calm, and engaging presence—especially with babies, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. I love nurturing curiosity through play, encouraging independence, and creating predictable routines that help children feel safe, confident, and deeply cared for. I have several years of experience with infants as well as elementary aged children. Over the past year, I've had the privilege of serving as a full-time live-out nanny for a wonderful family with two energetic, curious children (currently ages 3 and 5). With my experience homeschooling and parenting my own high energy children, this role strengthened my abilities even more. My responsibilities include daily transportation in the family's vehicle to and from school, camps, appointments, play dates, and extracurricular activities, while maintaining a safe, organized, and dependable routine. I am neurodiversity-affirming and have additional training supporting children with learning differences, including dyslexia, and dysgraphia. My focus is always connection-based care. I would love to learn how I can support you and your families needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, and background checked with clean driving record.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Wendy. Any family who has the opportunity to hire her will be incredibly fortunate. Wendy brings an infectious energy and enthusiasm to everything she does. She is creative, patient, and has a remarkable ability to connect with children, even in the most challenging situations. Whether she's helping a child navigate potty training, working through meltdowns, or supporting them during moments of sensory overload, she approaches every challenge with calm, empathy, and skill. She teaches children effective ways to cope with big emotions, communicate their needs, and build confidence. Her knowledge of child development is exceptional, and it's clear that her years of experience have given her both incredible wisdom and intuition. She creates a safe, nurturing environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to grow. At the same time, she establishes clear expectations and helps children develop respect, kindness, and independence. Wendy is also an excellent communicator. She is reliable, professional, and always open to feedback and collaboration. We always felt comfortable discussing ideas or concerns, knowing she would listen thoughtfully and work with us as a true partner in caring for our children. Most importantly, our children absolutely adored her. They looked forward to every day they spent with Wendy, and we loved knowing they were not only having fun but also learning, growing, and thriving under her care. We are incredibly grateful for the time our family had with Wendy. She has made a lasting impact on our children, and we recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for an exceptional nanny.

Booked by 2 families in Suitland, MD

Hi, My name is Keketso, popularly known as Keke (pronounced keh-keh, not Kiki). I did my undergraduate degree at the University of Cape Town in South Africa and majored in Politics, Economic s and Philosophy. I had a successful and promising career in the marketing field working for multinationals such as L'Oreal and VISA, before coming to pursue my acting passion in New York. I also have a diploma in Acting for Film, Theatre and Television from Michael Howard Studios (2015), as well as a Digital and Social Media certification from Columbia Business School (2019). My experience in babysitting/ being a nanny has been with with both family members and with private jobs. I have also had the privilege of occasionally being a nanny for one of my friend's aunts in New York. My experience with kids has been with toddlers all the way up to teens, although I do have vast experience with babies, having 3 nieces who I have had to assist my sister with in times of need and also being a grand aunt. I have done babysitting for a family in Brooklyn part-time, looking after their 9-year old daughter and my responsibilities included: - picking her up from school in the afternoons - taking her to playdates or supervising her playdates - assisting her with homework - ensuring she had her afternoon meals - doing educational reading with her I have been a stay-in nanny for a family in Peoria, Illinois for 2 years looking after twin boys. They were pre- teens going into their teenage years. I have also looked after a baby boy for a family in Kissimmee, Florida from one month up to 6 months while his Mom was overcoming post natal complications. I assisted the family with bathing, feeding and taking care of the baby on a daily basis. I have a passion for kids because I love to see them grow, develop and thrive. I enjoy seeing their development, curiosity and their zest for life and contributing positively to the people they are growing into. NOTE: my video profile is outdated but still gives correct information. My profile picture is current :-)

Keke was a total gem! She engaged with the kids, asked us when they wanted to do something we hadn't instructed, played and cuddled and read, and put everyone to bed as instructed. Our kids loved her! And she cleaned a lot, too, way more than our sitters back home. We loved her and highly recommend her! Thanks, Keke!

"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)."
