I have worked at an elementary school taking care of 25 kids. Being creative and finding activities for kids to do is very important. Painting, drawing, any games that they like. It’s also very important to lead Children to make sure rules are followed so they are safe at all times. Through getting to know them and being a good listener, over time they will feel more comfortable.
Hi! I’m Nichole! I’m currently a nursing student getting ready to graduate, and I’m especially interested in working with children and eventually becoming a NICU nurse. I’m BLS certified and have experience in healthcare settings, so safety, patience, and being attentive to others’ needs are very important to me. While I’m newer to professional babysitting, I’m comfortable caring for and interacting with children and would love the opportunity to build more childcare experience. I’m dependable, patient, caring, and easygoing, and I’m happy to follow your family’s routines and preferences. I can help with playtime, meals and snacks, bedtime routines, light tidying, and keeping little ones entertained and safe. I also have plenty of experience caring for pets, so I’m very comfortable in homes with dogs and cats. I’d love to connect with families looking for a trustworthy and responsible sitter for date nights, occasional care, or other babysitting needs!
“Nichole is wonderful - it is obvious she loves babies and is a very kind and attentive caregiver. She jumped right in caring for my 8 month old and goes above and beyond. She is also a great communicator and very dependable. Highly recommend!”
I'm a warm, dependable caregiver with 20+ years of experience from infants through adolescents, and a Master's in Maternal and Child Public Health. I'm also CPR certified for children and adults through the American Red Cross, recently renewed. I believe great childcare starts with getting to know each child and respecting the way each family does things. I like to learn your routines and expectations so I can provide care that feels comfortable and consistent. During our time together, I keep things safe, calm, and fun-whether that means helping with homework, playing a game, getting outside, preparing a meal, or settling into bedtime. I've also worked as a teacher, tutor, and mentor, and I love helping children feel confident, curious, and capable. I'm patient, attentive, and happy to meet kids where they are, and I want parents to feel confident that their children are in caring, capable, and trustworthy hands. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!
“Sara was wonderful with my 5 and 2 year old! I look forward to having her babysit again soon. ”
My name is Kate and I am college student looking to obtain more babysitting jobs while home during the summer and winter breaks! I have been babysitting since 2021 and have experience with a wide variety of ages, the youngest being 5 months. I have had the pleasure of working with multiple families when their children were babies and have continued watching them as toddlers and elementary schoolers. I am a reliable babysitter who is always on time and committed to giving my full attention to the children to ensure they are safe and happy. I love keeping the children engaged through games, art activities, playing outside, imaginative play, storytelling, and reading. I am also happy to help with homework or learning based activities. Finally, I am responsible and will always follow instructions regarding activities, meal times, and bedtime routines. I can also assist with housework including cleaning up toys, preparing meals, and doing dishes. Feel free to ask any questions!
Hello my name is Lexi ! I am a current Howard University student who loves kids. I am super spontaneous and creative. I have lived in the Silver Spring area all my life and have babysat a numerous amount of kids in my neighborhood. I’m good with pets too as I also walk dogs. I am personable and would love to get to know you and your family. I am great with all ages and can’t wait to give you a little bit of freedom. Leaving your kids with a stranger can be intimidating so feel free to contact me so we can set up a phone call/ FaceTime and if need be a in-person meeting. This really helps you get a feel for me and can help put you at easy. Can’t wait to meet you soon!
