Booked by 1 family in Wheaton, MD

Hi! I majored film productions and the performing arts. I living in DC but I was born and raised in West Africa until I was 11, so I bring a global perspective and a lot of curiosity to everything I do. I've been babysitting since I was 10, starting with the children in my own family. In the summer of 9th grade, I was a Counselor in Training at the Anthony Bowen Branch YMCA in DC, where I helped lead activities and look after groups of kids until COVID shut things down. I've also regularly babysat at my mother's gym. I'm comfortable with children from 9 months to 12 years old. With babies and toddlers, I'm patient and attentive. With older kids, I love games, arts and crafts, storytelling, and creative play, and I'm happy to help with homework. I'm also a great cook, so I can prepare kid-friendly meals and snacks, and I can even make cooking a fun activity. I'm reliable, caring, and always focused on keeping kids safe and having fun.

“Rose was very professional. She showed up early and jumped in immediately. She even tidied up the play area without being asked. My 4 year loved her. I highly recommend her. ”

Maria 1 review
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Maria, and I am from El Salvador. I am a Spanish speaker and I also speak some English. I have over 20 years of experience working with children of all ages. In my home country, I worked as a nurse assistant, which helped me develop strong caregiving and safety skills. My most recent experience has been mainly with babies and toddlers. I am very passionate about working with children. I consider myself patient, loving, sweet, and friendly, and I truly enjoy helping children grow in a safe, healthy, and loving environment. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am looking for a respectful family where we can work together as a team and create a positive and nurturing environment for the baby. I am fully vaccinated and available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I also have excellent references available upon request. I would love to hear more about your family. Thank you for your time!

“I can’t recommend **Maria** highly enough as a nanny. She is loving, dependable, and truly wonderful with children. From the moment she steps into a home, Maria brings a calm, nurturing presence that immediately puts both children and parents at ease. Maria is incredibly attentive and patient, always tuning in to each child’s needs and personality. She handles daily routines like meals, naps, playtime, and bedtime with ease, while making everything feel gentle and reassuring rather than rigid. Safety and care are always her top priorities, and it shows in the thoughtful way she approaches every part of her role. What truly sets Maria apart is her genuine love for children. She builds meaningful connections, engages them with warmth and creativity, and creates an environment where they feel safe, happy, and loved. She is reliable, communicative, and respectful of family routines, making her an absolute joy to work with. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Maria as their nanny. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their children and their home.”

"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)."
