Hello parents! My name is Annie- a native of the D.C. area, I live in Baltimore, have family in Silver Spring, and commute to NW D.C. so I’m happy to pick up jobs anywhere in the area! What I bring to the table: •Nearly 20 years of experience with childcare and household management for preschool-to-high school aged kids and families. I was with my previous family for 14 years and have been with my current family since 2019. •Intuitive and fast thinking- I am able to quickly troubleshoot situations and navigate decisions without handholding. Fixing problems before they become problems. •Almost spotless driving record (one camera ticket in the last few years), plus a squeaky clean criminal record. I am very comfortable driving, navigating rush hour, parallel parking, etc. I have my own transportation. •Funny, down to earth, and strong in my convictions- would like to work with a family on the same wavelength. •I love to cook and am familiar with many different cuisines. Comfortable in kosher, vegetarian/vegan, and gluten-free/allergy kitchens. •Happy to work with families and kids of all types! LGBTQ+, polyam, gnc, families and kids welcome. The downsides: •I am only available for occasional or as-needed work. I currently work part-time with a rolling schedule so I have decent availability but cannot commit to a set schedule. •I am a night owl and prefer to work afternoons and evenings. Late nights are not a problem. •Funny, down to earth, and strong in my convictions- so I’m unfortunately not willing to work with folks whose values don’t match my own :) When not corralling kids, I am in the garden (or planning next year’s garden), elbow deep in dyeing yarn, at my weaving loom with a podcast on, or watching local music. Catch me at your local maker’s market 🧶 Hope to her from you soon!
“Arrived on time. Our toddler immediately enjoyed playing with Annie. Great experience for parents and child.”
Hi, I’m a college student looking to help out a family who need a sitter. I would describe myself as athletic, as I like to stay active. I’m also creative and love doing art activities. To add on, I’m empathetic and also patient, especially when it comes to kids. I have a variety of experience from babysitting while in high-school, to working at the YMCA as a summer camp counselor these past three summers. I’ve worked with kids as young as 1 up to the age of 15.
“Ashley is wonderful! She is very friendly, engaging, and caring. My 20-month-old daughter felt very at ease with her and had a great time together. Thank you Ashely!”
Hi! My name is Nina, and I’m a responsible and caring babysitter with a 90-hour childcare certification and hands-on experience from my stepmom’s in-home daycare and working at my high school’s preschool. As a nursing student, I’m passionate about providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids. I love engaging children in creative activities like arts and crafts, as well as helping with homework, bedtime routines, and light meal prep. My goal is to make sure both kids and parents feel comfortable and happy while I’m around. I’d love to help out! Feel free to reach out with any questions.
“She was on time. My child really connected with her and was sad to see her go.”
I am an Early Childhood Educator with over twenty years of experience caring for and educating young children. I hold a Bachelors in Early Childhood Education with a minor concentration in Infants and Toddlers, as well as a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. I am currently a classroom preschool teacher in Baltimore City. I have experience with infants and toddlers, including twins. In addition to teaching, I’ve also owned my own registered home day care, and nannied for multiple families. I believe children are competent and capable and learn best through play and hands on activities. I am a responsive caregiver with an extensive background in social emotional learning. I enjoy gardening, hiking, camping, crafts and reading in my spare time. I have two cats and feel comfortable with dogs and other small pets.
Hi! Family I’m a caring, dependable caregiver with hands-on experience supporting children of all ages in a safe, nurturing, family-style environment. I’m patient, attentive, and great at following routines, helping with meals, playtime, and light household tasks. I also have experience with pets and providing respectful care for seniors. I treat every family I work with like my own and always prioritize trust, communication, and comfort.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
