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

Dear Families, My name is Destinee, and I’m excited to share a bit more about myself with you. Originally from California, I moved here for college, but things didn’t quite go as planned. However, that led me to pursue becoming a CNA. In the meantime, I’ve returned to caregiving, which I find incredibly fulfilling. I have experience caring for children ranging from 1 to 13 years old, including infants. I am incredibly interactive with children and enjoy engaging them in games and activities that are not only fun but also educational. Safety is my number one priority, and I always ensure that the children I care for are in a safe and secure environment. In addition to caregiving, I also offer homework help in subjects like math, science, history, and more. I make an effort to understand how each child learns best so that I can tailor my teaching approach accordingly. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and care for your family. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if there’s anything specific you’d like to know. Warm regards, Destinee F

Hi everyone, my name is Ms. Lovelace! I have single-handedly raised three beautiful children that I call my blessings from the Lord. I have worked with the disabled and seniors for over 35 years. I'm in college, finishing my degree as an art therapist. I am ready to use my nurturing spirit to care for children and listen to a real-life experience of seniors. I look forward to being a part of your peace while you're away from your loved ones.

Kayla $21 per hour for 1 child

I’m a single mom with my sweet 10 month old daughter looking for the right family to join us on our journey! By training, I’ve been a naturopathic doctor for the past 6 years. When my husband passed away unexpectedly while I was pregnant with our baby girl, I had to step away from work in order to show up for our daughter in the way I felt she needed. As I’m waiting to feel like we’re both ready for me to return to my career, I’m looking for part-time nanny work to help support the two of us in a way that allows me to be with her. Grief and single motherhood, as difficult as they have been, have opened my heart up to be a more empathetic, more mindful, and more patient human. I’m looking for a family that values a natural, conscious style of caregiving for their child. We are a screen-free, toy-limited, non-toxic family that prioritizes creativity, nature & health. We cook together, spend time outside in the dirt & grass, go on hikes, and read together. My professional background in naturopathic medicine not only certifies me in CPR and basic & naturopathic first aid but also gives me extensive knowledge of nutrition to prepare homemade meals for your child - I believe this niche makes up for my limited paid childcare experience! I’d also be a great fit for a family planning to have a second child that would like their first exposed to a younger baby. My daughter already loves to play with kids! I know how hard it is to leave your child in someone else’s care during such critical years. My priority as a nanny is to give your child a loving, caring presence and safe, bonded connection while you’re away. Ideal age is 6 months to 3 years old.

Kiara $12 per hour for 1 child

Hi I’m Kiara! I’m a caring and reliable babysitter with experience in special education and tutoring kids in core subjects. I’m also ESL friendly, so I can communicate easily with children from different backgrounds. I love getting creative with fun activities, crafts, and games to keep kids happy and engaged. Safety is always my top priority, and I genuinely enjoy helping children grow, learn, and feel comfortable. Looking forward to hopefully working together!

"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)."
