Booked by 31 families in Potomac, MD

Hi! My name is Carol. I have more than 6 years of experience in and out the country, with children of all ages, since newborns to teenagers. I also worked in a preschool for almost 2 years before I moved to United States. I love taking care of kids and empathize with them! Keeping them safe is my priority and making them happy is my best job!!🤗

“Carol is awesome! She has been working for our family four days a week for more than 6 months. She is incredibly reliable and responsible; she is an excellent driver, and she drives my kids to their after-school activities around Bethesda. She always arrives on time and has never missed a day. She is thoughtful and diligent about her work for our family. She is responsible for our two adolescent boys after school, she prepares meals for the kids, helps us manage the household, and she is responsive to any tasks we need her help with. She has been a tremendous resource to our family and I whole-heartedly recommend her.”

Booked by 40 families in Potomac, MD

I finished LPN (Licenced Practical Nurse). I have years of experiences working with an infant, toddler, and school aged children. Kids are adorable. I don't have my own, but I have several nieces and nephews I babysit and love as my own kids. I love my family so much, they're my everything.

“Laurelle was such a lovely lady and wonderful caregiver. She was promptly on time and immediately engaged with my 4 month old. Laurelle was comfortable with my lab mix, Lincoln and I was happy to leave my little family in her hands. Hopefully she will be available the next time I need help as she is incredibly kind and got along amazingly well with my little one.”

Hello parents! My experience spans from babies to teenagers and I have been working with kids as a nanny and babysitter for 8 years. I have a degree in Business Analytics from the University of Maryland and I’m looking for occasional babysitting jobs. While babysitting, I enjoy playing, reading, going to parks and libraries, exploring kids’ imagination/creativity, and having fun! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!

Hello There, I trust you and your family are well! You might notice my last review is from 2020, that’s simply because I’ve been fortunate to work long-term with a few wonderful families since then. My relationships often last for years, and many of the families I’ve supported have truly become like family to me. I hold a Master’s of Arts (M.A.) in School Counseling, & M.Ed in Education Policy and Leadership. I have more than fourteen years of private childcare experience ranging from newborn to 15 years of age. I support children's emotional and social development, encouraging understanding of others and positive self-concepts. My goal has always been to provide children with the necessary care. I am dedicated to creating an atmosphere that is fun,stimulating, encouraging, safe and adaptive to each child's individual needs. Should you have any questions, feel free to message me.

“A miracle worker. Absolutely amazing. Wish she lived in SF.”
