Hi! I’m Olivia, a sophomore at Morgan State University in Baltimore Maryland, originally from California , with four years of paid childcare experience. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and supportive environment. I’m currently in school to become a nurse, and I would love to be a labor and delivery nurse. I have four years of paid childcare experience with children of all ages. I’ve been a overnight summer camp counselor for children and teens ages 6–17, where I supervised campers, led games and activities, encouraged teamwork, and helped create a safe, fun, and welcoming environment. In addition to my paid experience, I’ve had extensive informal experience caring for my 9-year-old younger brother and several younger cousins, so I’m very comfortable working with children of different ages and personalities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, patient, and always bring a positive attitude. Whether it’s crafts, playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I’m ready to jump in and help make your day a little easier!

My 2 year old loved Olivia! They played and did some activities together. She was very calming for my little one. My 2 year old even said “I like Olivia” after she left. Thank You!

My name is Aliah. I am a graduate of Rutgers University-New Brunswick, and I am currently pursuing my Master's Degree in Social Work with a specialization in youth. I am looking for evening babysitting positions in the Owings Mills, MD area during the school year and summer. My schedule is pretty open, and I am flexible. I am willing to travel to neighboring cities as well. I have done multiple jobs with Sitter City so far. I have years of experience working with infants, toddlers, and teens. I also have experience with special needs and have been certified in the past to administer and pass medication. In the past, I've worked at foster homes, daycares, and summer camps, and I've done in-home babysitting jobs for family friends and neighbors. I am CPR/First Aid certified and fully vaccinated against COVID-19. I have my own transportation and can provide references. I look forward to hearing from you! :)

We can’t recommend Aliah enough! She was first sitter when our little girl was 4 months and stayed with us until she was ready to head to pre-k. Aliah quickly became apart of our family and our little girl’s best friend. While Aliah looked after her, they took trips to the park, local story times, tried fun hair styles, and sent us photos (which made our days so much better). As two parents with high expectations Aliah went above and beyond which frankly made our lives so much easier. Now that our girl is in pre-k, Aliah has offered to babysit to help out with date nights and there isn’t anyone else we’d trust to do it. Aliah is compassionate, caring, patient, and would be an amazing choice for any family.

Hi, I’m Morgan! If you ask the children I’ve cared for, they’d probably tell you I’m the one who turns ordinary days into little adventures. If you ask their parents, they’ll tell you I’m dependable, calm under pressure, and genuinely invested in helping children thrive. I’ve spent more than a decade caring for children ranging from newborns to elementary school age, including infant twins, multiple children with different schedules, and children with unique developmental needs. Most recently, I spent nearly a year traveling throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Mexico as a private nanny for a touring family, helping an infant experience every milestone—from first teeth to first steps—while maintaining consistent routines across planes, tour buses, hotels, cruise ships, and countless new cities. Whether we’re reading books, exploring outside, practicing colors in English and Spanish, learning baby sign language, or simply building a predictable daily routine, I believe children learn best when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged. Families often describe me as calm, patient, organized, and incredibly adaptable. I enjoy creating structured days while still leaving plenty of room for imagination, laughter, and curiosity. I communicate openly with parents, respect every family’s parenting style, and love becoming part of the team supporting a child’s growth. When I’m caring for your little one, my goal isn’t simply to keep them safe—it’s to help them flourish. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone your children are excited to see every day.

Morgan cared for our twins from the time they came home. Morgan cared for their needs and their emotional will being which most don't consider at such a young age. Morgan would let them know when they were being changed and moved. The philosophy was always atonomy over their bodies. Morgan provided support for my husband and myself as we navigated life with multiples and at times would also care for an additional child (with our permission). I would highly recommend Morgan for any family that is looking for a caregiver, educator, Mary Poppins all in one. The twins still adore Morgan and has had multiple opportunities to be cared for but Morgan when available.

Hi! My name is Amber, and as the oldest of five girls, I’ve pretty much been babysitting my whole life! Growing up in a big family taught me patience, creativity, and how to keep things fun and organized no matter what’s going on. Beyond family, I’ve professionally babysat throughout my adult life—caring for children of all ages, genders, and needs, including those with allergies, special needs, and multiple children at once. I’m a fun, energetic, and enthusiastic sitter who loves keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, outdoor play, and learning activities. I take pride in creating a safe, supportive, and happy environment where kids can thrive and parents can feel at ease. I’m currently looking for a babysitting position before I begin nursing school, so my schedule is very flexible—I’m available most days, evenings, and weekends as needed. I’ve completed CPR and First Aid training in the past and always prioritize safety and communication in everything I do. References are available upon request.

We hired Marissa back in 2021 when our first child was born. Initially, it was for a part-time nanny hire (we only needed her for 2-3 days/week). When we first spoke, she felt like someone we had known for a long time. Very personable, warm and honest. During her time with us, she has always been very dependable, always on time (if there ever was a delay, which was rare, she would notify me right away), and has been excellent with our 2 kids and 2 dogs. After we no longer needed a part-time nanny, she became our go-to babysitter. Marissa is excellent with handling tough situations (one child melting down, making sure the other is in a safe, contained space, etc). She makes our children feel safe and genuinely cared for. When it comes to disciplining a child, she was on the same page with us - stern but not harsh, no "punishments," connect/validate/teach, etc. We always have felt very safe and secure with our household in her hands. Marissa is sorely missed but she comes with the highest recommendations from all of us!

Hi! My name is Jessica, and I have 19 years of childcare experience through babysitting, nannying, and early childhood education. I started babysitting at 14 years old and have always had a genuine passion for working with children and supporting families. I worked at The Goddard School for four years as a Teacher Assistant, where I helped care for children in a structured classroom environment. My responsibilities included supporting daily routines, assisting with educational activities, supervising playtime, maintaining a safe and nurturing environment, and helping children learn and grow through positive engagement and consistency. My background in psychology, social science, early childhood education, and cybersecurity has helped me develop strong communication, organization, patience, reliability, and a deep understanding of child development and emotional support. Families describe me as dependable, patient, caring, and trustworthy. I love creating a warm, safe, and positive environment where children feel supported, comfortable, and encouraged to be themselves. I take pride in building strong relationships with both children and parents and understand how important it is for families to feel confident and at ease with their childcare provider. I am also offering nannying care from my home in a smaller, personalized setting. This allows me to provide more one on one attention, a calm environment, structured routines, and individualized care to help each child feel safe, comfortable, and supported throughout the day. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Jess cared for our two daughters and was truly amazing throughout every stage. She cared for our youngest from the newborn stage through toddlerhood and was also a huge help with our older daughter. She provided loving, reliable care, always kept us updated and made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. Leaving my girls in someone else’s care caused me a lot of anxiety at first but Jess eased that anxiety right away with her warmth, communication and genuine care. Jess is patient, nurturing, dependable and truly cares for the children she watches. We only ended care because we moved out of state. We would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for an amazing nanny! We miss her so much and are even planning to meet up for lunch next month with the girls. That’s how much our family loves her!

Millie is incredible with my daughter, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! In the beginning, I outlined my expectations, and she has exceeded them every single time—without me ever needing to repeat myself. Millie keeps my daughter engaged both physically and mentally, incorporating fun activities while also teaching her Spanish, which I greatly appreciate. She cleans the kitchen and playroom after every visit, showing a level of care and responsibility that can be hard to find. What I love most is how thoughtful Millie is—she dresses my daughter in adorable outfits, styles her hair, and even sends me sweet pictures throughout the day, which brings peace of mind. Millie has shown she knows how to handle children with patience, kindness, and creativity. Any family would be lucky to have her!

We've had several sitting jobs with Shontae and she is absolutely wonderful. She's always on time, and does a great job staying in touch with us before and during the job. Our boys are very energetic, and she's happy to keep up with them. The boys love having her come around and she always asks if there's anything that needs to get done with them. We love Shontae!
