Booked by 1 family in Port Republic, MD

Hi! I’m Kelsey — an experienced nanny and infant teacher with a strong background in early childhood care. I’ve worked as a Head Start teacher, infant room teacher, and private nanny, caring for children from newborn through preschool age. I’m especially comfortable with infants and toddlers, including feeding breast milk, supporting developmental milestones, managing routines, and handling illness or challenging behaviors calmly and safely. I’m organized, reliable, and communicative, and I believe in keeping parents informed about their child’s day and development. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, attending library programs, and creating a nurturing environment where children can grow and feel secure. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping and family routines as well. I look forward to supporting your family!

“Great communication and very accommodating. Would definitely book again! ”

Nurturing children's development is a true passion of mine, sparked by positive experiences in previous babysitting roles. I have three years of experience caring for children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers. I hold a graduate degree and am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. My approach is patient and friendly. I always follow parents' preferred communication methods and am comfortable enforcing household rules. I'm happy to prepare meals and engage children with fun activities, including outdoor sports, board games, and even educational apps. I am also certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I speak Arabic and Spanish in addition to English. Ultimately, I want to make a positive impact on your children's lives. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi! My name is Mincie. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’ve worked in a licensed daycare, provided one-on-one tutoring, and served as a summer camp counselor, giving me strong skills in safety, engagement, and age-appropriate activities. Parents describe me as patient, dependable, and calm, even in busy or high-energy situations. I love creating fun, screen-free activities, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, and keeping routines consistent. I always prioritize communication and safety, and I treat every child with kindness and respect. I’m available for evenings, weekends, and occasional last-minute care. I would love to support your family — please feel free to reach out with any questions!

“I highly recommend Mincie for any family looking for someone dependable and professional. She is responsible, punctual, and communicates clearly, which made it easy to trust her with our child. She has a calm, patient approach and handled daily routines, meals, and activities with confidence. She was attentive, safety-focused, and genuinely engaged with our child at all times. We always felt comfortable knowing our child was in capable hands, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to other families.”

bernice $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Bernice and I am 25 years old. I am from San Antonio Texas but moved here because of the Army. I have been in for 7 years, but my job is currently at a clinic 4 days a week. I’m looking for a side job for occasions and weekends. I can drive and have a Toyota Corolla cross, but I have no car seats. I was a sitter for 2 families during COVID and did weekend and even baby sitting at my old duty station. My experience with these families was amazing because I got to help kids become active and enjoy being creative. I have experience with special needs children, helping with homework, and creating planning parties and hosting activities. One of my families that I baby sat weekly had 3 kids ages 2, 4, and 8. I have worked in the medical field for 7 years and have my CPR and first aid certificate that I must re-certify for every two years. Currently, I am in college and need 7 more classes to finish my bachelors degree in health sciences.

Jazmin $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Port Republic, MD

I’m an RBT with 3 years of experience working with children with ASD, where I've developed a strong foundation in patience, empathy, and creating supportive environments. I love the field so much I am actively pursuing a Masters degree in Applied Behavior Analysis from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. In addition to my therapeutic work, I've coached kids ages 3-15 in T-ball, baseball, softball, and soccer, and I played softball myself for 13 years, which has taught me teamwork, discipline, and how to motivate others. I'm CPR certified, and as a proud pet owner of three dogs, I’m experienced in caring for animals as well. I’m passionate about working with kids, whether it’s providing therapy, coaching, or simply making sure they feel safe, engaged, and happy. My compassionate, patient, and reliable nature allows me to build trust with families and create positive experiences for every child I work with.
