Booked by 52 families in Wheaton, MD

I am an active 63 year old woman who was born in Buffalo, NY. My educational background includes a BA in English education and I taught elementary school before becoming a reading specialist. I left teaching to join the American Red in New York as the Assistant Director of Blood Services. I am the mother of two happy, healthy and highly successful sons. As the years passed, I volunteered as a after school tutor, taught Sunday school and supported many families with child care. I have great passion for supporting families in being successful raising this precious new generation. I enjoy the opportunity to nurture infants as they grow and change each day. Most babies appreciate a little rocking and a soft, sweet song. Toddlers to preschoolers bring me laughter. Their energy and openness to imagination games, a walk to count puppies, a trip to discover new books at the library or having a dance party. School age children have already well defined interests. If they enjoy piano, I make a great audience or if they have an interest in basketball, we'll be at the hoop or if they prefer baking, I'll help them discover new recipes. My goal is to support growing families by fitting into your plans and needs.

“Margaret was absolutely lovely! She watched our two year old and was fantastic with him - he felt immediately at ease with her and she even brought him toys to play with - a special treat especially when traveling with a toddler! We were lucky to book her for two days and she was comfortable playing in our hotel room with him and also taking him on a stroller walk. She was an absolute delight, professional, on time, and our son enjoyed spending time with her. She immediately put us at ease and we were able to enjoy a family wedding weekend without worrying. Highly recommend Margaret!”

Dear Family, I saw your job post on Urbansitter and would love to be considered for your nanny position! I specialize in infant and toddler care, and your listing truly stood out to me. I have over 35 years of meaningful experience in childcare and early childhood education, giving me a deep understanding of early developmental milestones. I love creating a warm, nurturing environment where little ones can thrive. My experience covers all aspects of daily baby and toddler routines, including managing nap schedules, preparing healthy meals or bottles, handling diapering and potty training, and tracking daily updates for parents. More than just keeping children safe, I focus on helping them grow through active engagement. I love introducing sensory play, reading books, singing songs during transitions, and encouraging safe exploration and sharing. I hold certifications in CPR and First Aid, as well as extensive credentials in early childhood communication and care. I take great pride in being incredibly reliable, warm, and a supportive partner to parents. I would love the opportunity to connect and learn more about your little one's daily routine! Warmly, Geneva

“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."

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)."
