Hi there! I'm Maria, and I’d love to help care for your little ones!! With a heart full of patience and a genuine love for children, I bring over 5 years of experience to babysitting. Whether it’s playtime, helping with homework, or simply being a comforting presence, I’m here to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your kids. I believe every child is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual needs and interests. I enjoy quality time with the kids so I’m always ready to get creative with a plan or game ideas (puzzles, pillow castles, arts and crafts, visits to a museum, home spa time, cook a recipe or big legos towers). My goal is to not just look after your kids, but to help them feel happy and secure while you’re away. If you're looking for a trusted, kind, and playful babysitter, I’d love the opportunity to meet and chat! (Quick note I’m Infant qualified, I have a CPR and First Aid certification)

Hello! I bring over ten years of experience working as a trusted babysitter. I’ve had the privilege of supporting families by providing dependable, attentive care to children while also helping keep their homes running smoothly and efficiently. As a babysitter, I do more than supervise—I engage children with patience, warmth, and creativity, making sure they feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for in your absence. Whether it’s helping with homework, playtime, bedtime routines, or offering comfort during transitions, I understand the importance of nurturing each child’s unique needs. Alongside childcare, I also offer support with laundry, errands, and pet care. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, bilingual in English and Spanish, and fully vaccinated (COVID-19, Flu, and Tdap). I’m currently seeking occasional, one-time, and date-night opportunities where I can bring my experience, reliability, and care into your home. Thank you for your time

Babysitting has always held a special place in my heart; it’s the one job that consistently brings joy to my day! With over seven years of experience, I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to high schoolers, in a variety of settings, including private homes, daycares, and church nurseries.

Currently, I work at a nonprofit helping kids with mental health and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) in the Prince George’s County School District.

Hello!! My name is Iyana. I am a graduate student at Bowie State University. I have 5 years of experience working with children from infants to elementary school aged children. I previously taught 8th grade for a year and a half, working with students who have learning disabilities such as dyslexia, ADHD, and autism. I love being a sitter because each child is different, so every experience is different. I love getting to know each child on an individual level and learning their likes and dislikes.

Hello! My name is saniyah and i am a sophomore at Bowie State University! i love children and seeing them smile warms my heart.

I have worked in a daycare for about a year and a half on & off. I also babysit my siblings/cousins. Something that is different about me is the love i have for children and how soft and gentle i am with them. I think children should be treated with respect and tons of love/care.

Hi! Previously a 1st grade teacher for 3 years, before that, a preschool teacher for 3 years and in infant care 2. Overall I've been working with children, infants to middle school for about 10 years now. I currently have a learning pod where I have a mixure of full and part time children in attendance.

I'm CPR certified, able to provide a "parents packet" with information and details about the pod. If interested, I'm also available for tours, questions/concerns regarding if the pod is the right fit, schedules, daily routine or any other info needed about our crew!
