Schuyler $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a third year student majoring in Applied Psychology in Childhood . I have over 10 years experience with children ranging from infancy to pre-adulthood. I began educating those around me since I was a child myself and the gift grew on me. there is a depression that lingers when can no longer enjoy doing what you love; I respect it enough to return back to it. I am proud of those who support the art of love; a deep appreciation has grown over these past years. my passion causes others to be hungry for me which develops fear knowing family will never return back to me from the grave, it humbles me to have been blessed to survive alone.My childhood was robbed from me to join the middle class to only be knocked down, once again. The devil has hired me to work with children who experience the disease of young(trauma) and passion has grown within me knowing my father has been apart of their education. It has slowly but surely brighten up my day and made a gloomy day even worth the while. I have spent three years studying Early Childhood Education; recently switching to Psychology. I strongly encourage and implement the Arts( painting, reading, and writing) as well as incorporating outdoor activity within each set subject that is being introduced. Spirit provides everyone with joy of love and laughter. Being in a family setting offers me to excel; each and every encounter presents a learning experience! In my spare time I enjoy yoga and cooking with fruits/vegetables.

Booked by 7 families in Wheaton, MD

Hi, I’m Tatia! I recently graduated from college and am back home in DC. I have 8 years of professional experience working with children in a variety of capacities, including as a teacher’s aide in school settings, babysitting and caretaking in the home, and serving as an educator and social worker for children through organizational work. Aside from my professional experience, I’m also an older sister to two lovely younger siblings who I’ve cared for over the years, and that’s truly where my passion for working with children began. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with children ages 1–15. I’m very patient, adaptable, and always looking for fun and engaging ways to interact with children. My teaching experience has prepared me to respond thoughtfully to conflicts, support children’s individual needs, and always prioritize safety and care. My culinary experience and passion for cooking also mean I’m more than happy to prepare meals and snacks that are both nutritious and enjoyable for children. As a DC resident, I’m very familiar with the area and love the idea of extending care beyond the home by exploring the many family-friendly events, activities, and sights around the city. I’m very flexible, dependable, and open to any questions. I hope to work with your family soon :)

Booked by 12 families in Wheaton, MD

Hello, I'm Shela! I have experience babysitting since freshman year of high school. I'm currently a part-time student working on my nursing degree. From September 2014 to 2017, I worked for an after-school program at a DCPS. There I worked with children with children from all grades, though a majority of the time I was with 3rd graders. During weekends I would occasionally babysit. The children I babysat ranged from infants to pre-teens. I enjoy caregiving because of the way kids shift your perspective on day-to-day things. How walks, reading or other activities can be more fun through helping them discover and rediscover.

"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)."
