Estela H., Babysitter in Silver Spring, MD 20910 with 20 years of paid experience

As a dedicated childcare provider with over two decades of experience, I am passionate about nurturing the growth and development of young minds. My journey into childcare began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered my knack for fostering a safe and stimulating environment for children. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creative and imaginative nature, allows me to connect with children effortlessly. I believe in open and honest communication with parents, providing daily verbal updates during pickup.I firmly believe in following the parents' lead in enforcing household rules. With some high school education under my belt and certifications in First Aid and CPR Training, I am well-equipped to handle any situation that may arise.

Taylor  B., Babysitter in Silver Spring, MD 20910 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi everyone, my name is Taylor Burns and I am a very experienced babysitter on Capitol Hill with my own transportation so willing to travel to you as well! I work on the hill as my full time position, after what was supposed to be a one time babysitting evening I fell in love with taking care of kids. Now I have slowly acquired a book of clients and love to babysit after work. I am a night owl, so you want to stay out late for date nights? I'm your girl! Need a little bit of tidying up around the house after I put the kids to bed? Don't worry I can handle it! From special needs kids, to infants and young teens. I have far and wide experience with all and nothing is a surprise to me. I am ready to help take care of your kid as one of my own for the day. I am happy to do weekends, big events such as weddings, as well as after work sitting. I also have experience with multiple children at a time and love the company, the more the merrier! Please let me know if you have any questions that I can answer. About me: I am 22 years old and moved to DC from my small town in Ocala Florida when I was 19 to work in congress while finishing school online full-time at the University of Florida with an agriculture major. I ride horses on the weekends or when I am not babysitting. I have three dogs of my own. Two German shepherds and a saint Bernard! So if you have any pets I will be happy to get them taken care of as well. I would say that I am pretty wise for my young age and have small town routes. I got married in March 2024 and my husband is a Marine-1 Crew Chief and lifts the President on the Marine 1 helicopter and I work in military defense on the Hill. This means I have an extensive background check by the federal government and have a TS/SCI clearance. We love to hike and enjoy nature on our free time and house hunt. That's enough about me! I hope to hear more about your kids. I hope to talk soon! -Taylor :)

Children and I enjoyed many parents  Biografia     I prefer a position in which I am needed to help, not replace the parent, in an informal atmosphere.  I am seeking a long-term position with a family. Ideally with an infant or young children. i am seeking a situation where I may build a rapport to supplement the parents. I am flexible and capable of doing any of the housework listed, but not at the expense of time with the children. I would also wish to find parents whose philosophy of childcare is in agreement with mine. Those who show their children constant love Those who accept them and respect them, shower them with attention when they want it, and limits only when they need them. Also, parents who will be there to show them the world and help to raise great kids. thank you, I LOVE WORKING TOGETHER and we will see your children grow healthy: physical & mental.

Francia B., Babysitter in Silver Spring, MD 20910 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi there! I’m Fran — I’m 30 years old, originally from Mexico, and I’ve called the Maryland/DC area home for nearly a decade. I’m known for being a safe driver, calm under pressure, and great at communicating with both kids and parents. I’ve been caring for children for over 10 years, both as a babysitter and as a live-in au pair. I have extensive experience with toddlers and spent five wonderful years caring for a six-year-old girl and a nine-year-old boy on the autism spectrum. I genuinely love working with young children and always treat each child as the unique little human they are — with patience, warmth, and encouragement to grow. One of my favorite things is bumping into kids I used to care for and seeing how much they’ve grown — and hearing that they still remember our fun times together! I’m currently available on weekday afternoons and weekends (Saturday and Sunday), and I’d be happy to provide references upon request. I’d love to connect and get to know your family!
