Booked by 3 families in Colesville, MD

I graduated with a Bachelor's of Arts in Psychology in 2016. I am very passionate about helping people improve their lives and hope to go back to school for social work or forensic psychology. I have 2 nephews and 1 niece that I watch for my older brother, and they are the light of my life! When I have them for extended periods of time I try to make a set schedule of activities to keep them busy and set meals. I also used to be a YMCA Summer Camp counselor in college work with children in kindergarten and enjoyed every minute of it! I am CPR certified! I like to play piano and I love love love podcasts! I have 1 year puppy named Rosie who I absolutely adore! Please reach out if you have any questions!

I have over 5 years of experience with caring for children of all ages whether new borns or teens. It started with taking care of family members being a first- born daughter in my big family and expanding to neighbors and friends. With a degree in business management and training in psychology, I bring patience, understanding, and the ability to engage children of all ages in age-appropriate activities. My experience as a certified HCA caregiver, including a year of live-in care, has further developed my ability to ensure safety and wellbeing. I follow parents' guidelines for discipline and respect each family’s preferences. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, keeping tasks within the home. I prioritize clear communication with parents to provide the best care possible for their children. Can’t wait to meet future families 😊

“Hilary was great! She very quickly connect with my toddler and handled the bedtime routine perfectly. She was so kind and professional. We’ll definitely have her back.”

Hi! I’m Danielle. I’m certified in Anxiety Counseling and have been coaching kids and adults to incorporate wellness practices daily. I’m the proud author of the children’s book; Hugging Olivia. I’ve been providing childcare in the local DMV area since 2019 and have loved to see these little ones grow up.

Shelby $25 per hour for 1 child

My husband and I live in Takoma Park in where he attends a doctoral program at UMD. We recently moved from the Boston area where I nannied and worked at a university. I have a degree in theatre arts and began my career working in children's theater. I find myself happiest when laughing with kids, playing games, teaching them songs and dances or just getting to know about their lives. With a strong academic background, I'm a big fan of organization and also seek to always treat kids with mutual respect and good manners. I like to have adventures with kids but I also enjoy quiet moments of reading, learning, and playing. Additionally I like helping with some household tasks (I love a tidy play room during nap time or helping with bottle washing, etc) I've mostly worked with ages 6 months-10 years old.
