Hello, I know on my profile it states that I am a caregiver. But, I am also a babysitter with a teaching background. I love working with children and watching them blossom under my care. It seems that we live less than a mile from each other. If you are interested feel free to email me at tyairamanning@gmail.com for an updated resume or text me at4102401043. I am pretty flexible and can start as early as this evening.

We love Ty!!!! I posted looking for a sitter as a hail Mary when another sitter left me high and dry. She was extremely sweet, showed up on time and my kids will not stop raving about how nice she is. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Hi I have been working with children for about 10 years and have worked with several orgs regarding childcare like big brothers big sisters, corporate kids events, and Campfire Patuxent located in Greenbelt. I was also a childcare assistant working with toddlers and infants so I know the ropes when working with all ages. If you want to talk more feel free to message me!

Maatah does a great job with my twin 23 month old toddlers. She is reliable, patient, kind and consistent. She is very interactive with them, follows the schedule that I leave for them and also does an awesome job keeping me informed of how they are doing during the day while I'm away. Twins can be a handful so I'm grateful to have found her!

Olive Y., Babysitter in Gwynn Oak, MD 21207 with 19 years of paid experience

Hello! After 16 months caring for a wonderful baby girl who is now starting daycare, I am looking for a new full-time position with a loving family. I have a soft spot for babies and truly enjoy caring for them. I bring over 19 years of experience, and caring for children is more than a job for me — it’s something I do with my whole heart. I also help with light housekeeping and cooking to support the whole family. I am a fluent French speaker and speak limited English. However, many families have found this to be a positive — the little girl I’ve cared for recently now says several words in French! I don’t just meet a baby’s basic needs — I actively engage with them through creative play, singing, and activities that support early language development. I love singing to babies and watching how they light up with joy during interactive play. Helping little ones learn and grow through connection and care is something I truly enjoy. I’m reliable, nurturing, and ready to bring love and support to a new home. I’m happy to provide references from my current family. Please reach out if you’d like to learn more. 💕

We love Olive! It's quite obvious that her gift is taking care of babies. She cared for my six month old and he loved her soothing energy and playfulness. The one thing we loved about her was her attention on our baby. Some people just do the bare minimum to make sure the baby is fed, clean, etc, but Olive actually engages plays and sings to the baby constantly. It's so sweet. We 1000% recommend her.

Rosanna is a dream. She was our nanny for our two little ones for the last 3 years. She started with us when our oldest was 3 months old and was there when we had our 2nd baby. Rosanna has all the qualities you could hope for in a caregiver: gentle, patient, firm when needed, and deeply understanding of the delicate balance it takes to raise children. What stood out the most was how easy she was to work with. As first-time parents, navigating the challenges of raising children can be overwhelming but Rosanna consistently provided us with unwavering support. She listened carefully and adapted to our parenting style, and gave us the space to figure things out on our own without judgement. Her presence was a comfort and relief and her guidance was always encouraging. When we moved, her commute increased by nearly an extra hour each way. Despite this added challenge, she graciously continued working with us for 3 additional months to help transition our youngest before daycare began. Her dedication and commitment to our family during this time speaks volume about her character and work ethic. We are so grateful for the love, care, and professionalism she brought to her role. She has made an indelible mark on our family and we will always cherish the time she spent with us. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a nanny who is not only skilled and reliable but also kind-hearted and understanding.

Mrs. Avis is wonderful. After a bad experience with a sitter I hired here she gave me hope that there are some good, caring, responsible caregivers out there. My 8 month old took to her very well. We will definitely be keeping her on speed dial.

Vickie was the first sitter that we hired to watch our twins. She's the only person I've trusted outside of family with them. She communicates extremely well, she's always on time and is wonderful to have watching my boys. She's even able to somehow put my two twins who are two years old and pretty against sleep with us some days right to bed with no issues too! She's great with our twins, they opened right up to her, she plays with them and reads with them too. She genuinely cares, and I really love having her around. I'm so happy that I found her. I don't know what I would have done without Vickie

Samayah is an exceptional babysitter who is responsible, caring, and dependable. She has a natural ability to connect with children and always makes them feel comfortable and safe. Samayah is attentive to their needs, follows instructions carefully, and handles responsibilities with maturity and confidence. She keeps children engaged with fun, age-appropriate activities while maintaining a calm and structured environment. Parents can trust her to communicate clearly, arrive on time, and take her role seriously. I highly recommend Samayah to any family looking for a reliable and compassionate babysitter.

Greetings! I 'm a child lover whose two daughters are grown and am not yet a grandmother (hope springs eternal!). I spent 17 years in outside sales and eventually found there wasn't much need for a middle-aged pharmaceutical rep. I found a position as night nanny which turned into being a day nanny and never looked back. I find it greatly rewarding to being able to spend my time making children smile and teaching them the skills they'll need to be successful in life. In the process, I've met many, many wonderful parents who give me hope for the future. And of course, I have the gift of knowing that I enhanced lives for a time. I'm not a spring chicken, but as one of my employers put it when a co-worker posited to her "why did you hire someone older?" wisely responded "At least I know she won't be on the phone all day." The only texts that occur when I'm with your children are the ones the parent of the moment sends me. The children I care for know they are loved and cherished. I might be a little stricter than you, but I try to make children understand that, in the words of the old Ford TV ads, "Safety is job ONE." Children are smart and they get it! I'm active outdoors playing with your children, I can pitch a baseball pretty well (my hitting skills are better, if you're training a pitcher) and I love to kick the soccer ball around. One of my kids even told me I was a good tennis player (in all honesty, he hadn't played much tennis). I love to take your children to the playground, , park, library, pool, or wherever you like. The mother of my current family had planned on keeping me until Fall of 2j022. Unfortunately, her job has become increasingly difficult and she has decided to stay home for a spell with her very special 2-year old. I'm currently looking for a full-time or nearly full-time position. However, if your needs are for part-time, I am always interested in patching more than one job together if I find the right families . Please call any day/night before 10:00 p.m.

Ms. Sheri is a Godsend. I hired her for a sitting job for a family BBQ. Not only did she and her daughter sit for the two children in attendance but also were a tremendous help with prepping for the party and assisted in the kitchen and grill during the party. I will hire her again without hesitation.
