Miriam Gisel $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Gisel, and I would love to help care for your children. I am available to start immediately. I am a former Au Pair with over 6,000 hours of childcare experience, including extensive experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and children of various ages. I have also worked as a nanny and daycare assistant, supporting children’s development and well-being in different settings. I am CPR certified and have Montessori training. In addition, I have completed face-painting courses and enjoy creating fun, educational, and age-appropriate activities for children. I love arts and crafts, sensory play, educational activities, reading, music, and outdoor activities whenever the weather allows. Spanish is my native language, and I would be happy to introduce children to the language through songs, games, books, and everyday conversations if your family is interested in helping them learn a few words or develop bilingual skills. I have experience with diaper changes, bottle preparation, feeding routines, nap schedules, potty training, and helping children develop healthy habits and independence. My goal is always to create a safe, loving, structured, and enriching environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. I especially enjoy planning hands-on activities that encourage creativity, learning, and social development. I believe children learn best through play, exploration, and meaningful interactions. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with child-related tasks such as cleaning and organizing play areas and children’s bedrooms, washing and sanitizing bottles, organizing toys, folding and putting away children’s laundry, and helping keep their spaces clean, safe, and organized. I consider myself patient, responsible, caring, organized, and highly dedicated to childcare. I value open communication with parents and always strive to provide the best possible care while respecting each family’s routines and parenting preferences. I am also pet-friendly and very comfortable around dogs and other pets, so I would be happy to help if you have furry family members at home. Although I do not currently have my own vehicle, I have reliable transportation and can be punctual and dependable every day. My rate is $25 per hour, and I am available to start immediately. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your family’s needs and discuss how I can support your children’s growth and well-being. Thank you for your time and consideration

Booked by 12 families in Washington Grove, MD

Hi! My name is Amber. I am a 37 year old Nanny available to provide occasional and Part time Childcare. Inside your home light housekeeping is always included. Along with Developmental play and meal preparation. I would love to discuss your children(s) needs and the goals you have for them. I am currently interviewing families for the upcoming fall, with availability beginning in September 2026. Here is a little bit about my background and short term goals. I grew up volunteering at a Home Child Care Center. I inevitably fell in love with the nurturing and more intimate structure that the setting offered. A safe, clean environment for children to explore and develop within. I respect and adore children. My cousins call me the " Baby Whisperer. " I desire to bring joy to your children, and laugh as much as possible with them! ✅ Pfizer Vaccinated as of 04/16/2021 ✔First Pfizer dose vaccination 03/26/2021 ✅Pfizer Booster as of 01/10/2022 ✔Flu shot 01/10/2022

We had the pleasure of having Amber care for our 1 year old son over the past two months and we couldn’t be more grateful for her help. From day one, she was incredibly reliable and proactive in making sure everything ran smoothly. What stood out the most, was her attentiveness and genuine care. She was fully engaged with our son, always making sure he was safe, entertained, and well taken care of. Whether it was playtime, mealtime, or simply keeping a calm and nurturing environment, Amber handled everything with thoughtfulness and professionalism. We always felt at ease knowing our son was in such capable hands and we will definitely reach out to Amber to work with her again. Anyone would be lucky to have her as part of their family’s support system. Highly recommend!!

"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)."
