Hi! I'm Karen. I am a devoted and loving mom of two young adults. As a former foster parent for the state of Maryland, I have cared for children of all ages and am CPR certified and first aid trained through the Red Cross. I have experience caring for children who have autism, ADHD and other disabilities. In addition to raising my own children and fostering, I acquired childcare experience through babysitting for family, friends and neighbors, previously working at a daycare center, leading classroom lessons and activities at my church and also substitute teaching elementary age students. Watching children learn and grow through engaging interaction is fulfilling and enjoyable to me. I like to occupy children with craft activities, art projects, games and puzzles, outdoor play, cooking lessons...anything that limits screen time and encourages imagination and creativity. I believe that some down time is also important. For that purpose, book reading, puppet shows, cloud shape guessing and wildlife watching would be some of my possible choices. There's surely no lack of things I could come up with to keep children busy, but the number one reason to choose me to be your caregiver is this...I love kids! They make life fun! I really enjoy teaching them and then watching them progress through their many stages of childhood. You can expect that I will treat your child/children with respect and I will nurture and care for them as if they were my own.

Hello! My name is Veronica, and I am excited about the opportunity to provide dependable, compassionate childcare for your family. I bring a wealth of experience and unique skills to the table: Bilingual: I speak both English and Spanish, which allows me to engage and communicate with children in either language. Family Care Experience: As an older sister to an autistic brother, I have firsthand experience caring for children, including those with special needs. This has taught me patience, understanding, and the ability to adapt to different situations. Pet-Friendly: I am a dog owner, so I am comfortable around pets and happy to assist with their care if needed. Household Skills: Having lived independently for some time, I am capable of handling basic house chores such as cooking, cleaning, vacuuming, and more. Transportation: I have my own reliable car, making transportation convenient and ensuring punctuality. Flexible and Accommodating: As a college student, I am willing to work with parents to create a schedule that fits their needs. I am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children while helping families with the support they need. I look forward to the possibility of working with you!

Hello! My name is Tiffany. I am a forty-year-old military spouse. I recently moved to Bel Air. I have three children; a twenty-five year old daughter, a fifteen-year-old son, and an ten-year-old son. I am a registered nurse. I am certified in Pediatric & Adult CPR, First Aid, and Basic Life Support. I have been providing care for children since I was twelve years old. I would provide care for a lot of my neighbors, friends, family, and friends of my family members. They would refer me to anyone they knew who was looking for childcare. Since my husband has been in the military, we have lived in Tampa for four years, Hawaii for four years, Texas for one year, Washington state for two years and now back in Maryland. While residing at these locations, I have provided care for a few of the military families that I had the pleasure of meeting. I provide care in my home because it allows me to be available for my children as well if there are any changes with school or if they need to stay home. However, I am open to possibly providing care in your home depending on the day, time, and situation. We can discuss if that would be an option. My house is very safe and child-friendly with plenty of toys and age-appropriate activities to keep your children entertained. I like to incorporate learning into play to make learning fun and can provide homework help. If you're interested, please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to working with you to see if I can help meet all of you and your family's needs. Thank you for your time and have a blessed day!

Working in child care for 10+ years! During this time I have worked with newborns to school age children. Recently certified in post-partum doula care. Adult & Pediatric CPR/FIRST AID every 2 years. Supporting families during some of their most meaningful moments is deeply fulfilling to me. Caring for infants and young children feels like purposeful work — I get to help them grow, feel secure, and reach their early milestones, while also giving parents the confidence and rest they need. I truly enjoy creating a calm, nurturing environment where kids can thrive and parents feel supported. Whether I’m soothing a newborn, helping a family settle into new routines, or building strong bonds with the children I care for, this work fills me with joy. Being part of a family’s journey — even for a short time — is a privilege, and I love knowing that what I do makes a real difference in their daily lives.

I'm an experienced babysitter with 9 years of working with children from infancy through age 13. I started as a mother's helper at 12, began babysitting at 14, and have been a private nanny for the past 7 years. I previously worked as a daycare assistant caring for groups of 6-10 children ages 3-11, supporting their social skills, manners, problem-solving, and positive interactions. I spent 8 years as a dance teacher, helping kids build confidence and creativity. I am First Aid and CPR certified through my prior cadet training. I love keeping kids engaged with age-appropriate crafts, outdoor play, games, baking, and doing fun outings like going to the zoo, museum, aquarium, park etc. I also have experience with private in-home meal prep and private house cleaning. I'm currently working toward my postpartum doula and perinatal nutrition certifications and love supporting families in meaningful, hands-on ways.

I am currently a Paraeducator at Aberdeen High School and I’m working on weekends to earn some extra money. I have been taking care of children for about 12 years now. I helped raise my youngest sister and was as we called it the “stay at home sister”. I am currently in school to get my college degree in secondary education and once I graduate I will become a teacher. I am also CPR/ AED certified. As a sitter, I love playing games with the children and I will set up a routine for the day if it is a consistent position.

I have worked as a Preschool teacher, babysitter and nanny for over 16 years. I am fluent in Spanish and English and have my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. I am also CPR certified. I have taken care of children between the ages of 3 months and 13 years old. I feel communication is key between the parent and childcare provider. I have learned to work with parents as a team, and listen to what they want for their children and what their goals are. That way, I provide for their needs as best I can.
