Hello, My name is Samira! I'm a 21-year-old college student, and I've got three years of experience working with kids, from toddlers to teens.

Hi! I’m Fernanda, a professional educator and experienced childcare provider with over 10 years of experience working with children of different ages, backgrounds, and learning needs. I hold a professional degree in Elementary Education and have worked as a teacher, tutor and babysitter in different countries. My experience includes children from preschool through elementary school, as well as children with special needs. My approach to childcare goes beyond supervision. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, understood, engaged, and encouraged to learn through everyday experiences. I enjoy creating age appropriate activities, reading together, arts and crafts, outdoor play, educational games, and routines that support each child’s development while still making their day fun. As a native Spanish speaker with advanced English, I can also provide a bilingual environment for families interested in exposing their children to Spanish naturally through conversation, play, reading, and daily routines. Educational Support & Personalized Tutoring: My teaching background allows me to offer more individualized educational support when families need it. Depending on your child’s age and goals, I can incorporate: * Homework assistance and personalized tutoring * Early literacy, reading, and writing activities * Elementary academic support * Spanish tutoring and bilingual learning activities * School readiness activities for younger children * Learning activities adapted to your child’s interests and needs I understand that every family has different routines, expectations, and parenting styles, so I value clear communication, reliability, consistency, and respect for the way each family chooses to raise their children. I’m also comfortable with meal preparation, children’s laundry and light tidying, transportation, errands, pet care, and maintaining organized play and learning spaces. My goal is to give parents peace of mind knowing their children are not only well cared for, but spending their time with someone who genuinely understands childhood development and education.

“wonderful experience. definitely recommend. Fernanda took amazing care of our 2 cats and 2 guinea pigs. communication was perfect! ”

Hi families I’m Ali I have a Communication science degree and I’ve been a babysitter/nanny for over 10 years. I’m a Spanish speaker so if you want your children to learn another language I’d be so happy to help. I worked for 2.5 years as an AuPair taking care of children from 3 different families ( 7 months old to 13 years old) I had a great experience with all the families and kids. My last full time job ended after almost 2 years of taking care of a beautiful baby girl who now is in pre-k but I still babysit her constantly. In my last two jobs I watched babies, a 3 months old baby boy and then another 3 months old baby girl. My schedule is very flexible and I’m available on weekends as well. Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm Jessica, a sophomore at college. It's been a few years since I started taking care of kids but for as long as I can remember l've always been like a second mum to my little siblings and cousins while growing up. Not because I didn't have a mum, but because being the eldest daughter it automatically became second nature. I love taking care of kids, watching and helping them grow is such a privilege to me, l'am also aware that it can sometimes get messy so I can help with light house work, laundry and school work if need. l'am more than willing to be a part of your team and I promise to do my best to keep your kids both happy and safe! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them.

“Jessica is great and personable! She was easy to communicate with. Our little one bonded with her immediately and they had a great time together reading books, playing creatively with toys, and also went out for a short walk. We will continue to work with her and also recommend her to others.”

Booked by 13 families in Wheaton, MD

Hello! I've successfully raised two sons who are now self-sufficient young adults. I adore children of all ages. I conduct legal background checks on caregivers, tutors, coaches, and anyone else with whom your child interacts. I am also adept at (and enjoy!) organizing homes and offices, And I teach teens to drive. I hold a B.A. in Psychology from the University of California, and a graduate certificate from Cornell University in the Psychology of Leadership. I have a spotless driving record; no criminal history; and I am fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid. For the past twenty years, I've been fortunate to own and run a firm that places a premium on ethics, discretion, tact, and confidentiality. I'm embarking on a career pivot that will include graduate work in child and adolescent psychology. I relied on my nanny when I was working full-time, and I trusted her implicitly. I hope to earn your trust and give you hard-working parents the break you deserve!

“Cristina is an exceptional organizing expert who transformed a daunting move-in situation into a manageable task in just one afternoon. With her professionalism, punctuality, clear communication, cheerful demeanor, and creative problem-solving skills, she tackled every space challenge with ease, finding smart solutions that I hadn’t considered. Her efficiency and positive energy made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. Cristina’s expertise and attention to detail turned a potentially overwhelming day into a smooth, organized experience. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to bring order to their space with a professional who truly cares about making your life easier and your home more functional.”

"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)."
