Muriel M.
- 8 years paid experience

Hello My name is Muriel I have worked with children for 11years, I have plenty of experience working in day cares and with different families. I have a CPR and First aid certification, also I have studied some child development classes. I use to nanny for many families but I took some time off to be with my little one now he is older and am ready to work full time or part time. I do have plenty of references and recommendation letters if needed. Well a little bit about me I believe when taking care of children they need attention love and plenty of imagination and fun activities so usually with me its about having a good time and following the rules the parents have left for us and safety, since that is what I instill in my own child and if someone took care of my own child I would want that person to treat him with love, be sweet to him and have fun with him while still following the rules. Well I hope that explained a little bit about myself, if you want to get in contact with me just leave me a message and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

Look no further you have found your ideal babysitter! Positive outlook, therapeutic art activities, patience and spirited energy is what I strive to bring to each child's experience connecting with me. With a background in Education, Integrative Nutrition, and over 6 years of hands on experience working with children of all backgrounds and ages I am always motivated to meet the needs of the children I babysit. Super passionate about the outdoors, art, and cooking! If given the opportunity I always like to provide age friendly activities with an intention of self-awareness and personal growth. Plus the overall enjoyment of experiencing something new. Currently hold an active certification in CPR and First Aid. Allow me the opportunity to babysit your next date night! Cheers. Amy Santis

Hi! I'm Elsa and I'm a 24 year old Certified Nursing Assistant / Certified Patient Care Technician. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I grew up in a big family so my experience with babysitting began in my own home and with close family. Over the years I have worked with many families with all kinds of backgrounds. I have been a babysitter, dog walker, tutor and mother's helper. I have experience in working with children that range from a toddler to teenager. With that being said, I love being around kids, babies and pets! I have also been a camp counselor, and a Montessori school teacher's assistant in the past. I work at Johns Hopkins which consists of working in every unit in the hospital with the main ones being Pediatrics and Psych. I'm an energetic responsible individual who goes out my way to provide a fun, safe/clean, and stimulating environment for children. My outgoing personality and background with arts helps me connect with the imaginative and creative sides that all children have. I’m starting school again therefore I look forward to go back to being a babysitter/nanny again. I hope to speak soon :)!

Hi Moms and Dads thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Sherry living in Gaithersburg Md. I have worked as a babysitter /nanny for over 40yrs. I worked for family's all over Montgomery County . I have work with preemies, new-born, toddlers and school age children. I have had experience with down syndrome children and one that requires a feeding tube. As a nanny I want your child/children to know that I am there to keep them safe and give love while their parents work. I will protect them as if they are my own. I read, sing song, go out, do craft and get down on the floor, and play. I enjoy going to story time and other activities. Sorry, I don't do public pools. I have travel with my family's to other states. I even travel to Spain with one of my family and stayed for 2months. I also do short term jobs and long term. My last family I was with for 3 years. I try to to support my family's as much as I can, whether it's a emergency or something else. I like to build a bond with the kids that I take care of so they feel safe and love at all times. Yes this is a job but how can you spend time with beautiful kids and not love on them. I do have my own car seats less then 2yrs old and kept clean. They are Graco.

Christina D.
- 2 years paid experience

Hi! My name is Christina. I love working with kids and have experience caring for children ages 1 to 9. I have the most hands-on experience with babies and toddlers. I was a caregiver for my twin cousins when they were 1 year old, providing about 25 hours of care per week for 8 months. They also have an elementary-aged child so I am comfortable and experienced in taking care of up to 3 children at a time. I’m currently looking for a part-time babysitting job in the mornings. I am available 7am- 2pm on weekdays, and all day on weekends. Right now, I nanny for a family on weekday afternoons (3-8pm), so this would be my second job. I’m a University of Maryland graduate and a former Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). I have also been CPR certified and am comfortable caring for children with special medical needs or disabilities. I am half Chinese and can speak Mandarin conversationally (I am not strong in reading and writing, but grew up speaking Chinese at home with my parents). In addition to general childcare, I can help with: -Academic tutoring (Math, English, history, etc.) - Light housekeeping - Bedtime/Bathtime routine - Meal Preparation - Driving to and from school or activities (I have my own car and 2 car seats suitable for children under 6) -Assisting with parties, playdates, or sleepovers I would describe myself as positive, reliable, and attentive. Some kids just need calm supervision after a long day, while others thrive on creative play, outdoor adventures, or educational games. I’m happy to provide both types of support and to tailor my approach to your family’s needs. Happy to provide references and any additional information that you may require!

Shaunda B.
- 8 years paid experience

Hi! My name is LaShaunda, but I go by Shaunna. I’ll be turning 32 this year, and I’m a former early childhood educator with a teaching career that began in 2014, specializing in preschool education through 2021. During those years, I developed a deep love for nurturing young children’s growth; academically, socially, and emotionally. In addition to teaching, I’ve volunteered with organizations supporting refugee children in need as well as children affected by abuse, experiences that strengthened my compassion, patience, and trauma-informed approach to caregiving. I stepped away from the classroom to focus on becoming a mother, a role that deeply shaped both my personal life and professional path. Through motherhood, I felt called to support families in a more holistic way and became a certified full-spectrum doula, helping families prepare emotionally, physically, and mentally for the birth of their child. From 2022–2024, I also worked closely with children and adults with special needs, including autism, while running my own doula business—further strengthening my ability to provide individualized, empathetic, and patient care. While I’m not ready to return to a traditional classroom setting, I’m excited to share my passion for early learning again—just as I do while homeschooling my preschool-aged son. Our finished basement is thoughtfully set up as a play-based school environment, designed to encourage learning through exploration, creativity, structure, and routine. I’m currently seeking a flexible family who is comfortable with my two children (ages 4 and 1) being with me, and who is also understanding that I am expecting my third child. I am available for childcare in my home or yours and am looking for a position through August 2026. I am available for occasions, last minute sitting, date nights, late morning start Tues- Thurs. If you’re looking for someone experienced, nurturing, and deeply invested in children’s development, while offering a home-like, structured, and loving environment, I would love to connect and be considered as part of your child or children’s learning journey
