Hello Families! My name is Estefania Lucas, and I have had the privilege of working as a nanny for over 5 years. I am bilingual, fluent in both English and Spanish, and I bring a wealth of experience in caring for children of various ages and backgrounds. Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of working with several long-term families, providing high-quality care for children ranging from just 3 months old (including twins) up to 13 years old. I come from a large family, which has allowed me to develop a natural nurturing instinct and a genuine love for working with children. As a nanny, I take pride in creating fun, engaging, and enriching experiences for the children I care for. I am an outgoing and creative individual who enjoys outdoor activities such as walks, visits to the park, and exploring new places like museums, libraries, and beaches. I also love fostering creativity through hands-on activities like arts and crafts, painting and coloring, embracing the mess that often comes with creativity! If the parents are open to it, I also enjoy teaching children Spanish, helping them develop language skills in a fun and interactive way. My goal is to make your life easier by offering more than just childcare. In addition to caring for the children, I am more than happy to assist with household tasks, including: Washing and putting away dishes Preparing meals for the children Folding laundry Cleaning up after activities and playtime Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss how I can support your family’s needs.

The kids had a lot of fun with Estefania. She was on time, patiently answered all our questions, and took great care of our children. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

I really enjoy working with children! I have multiple years of experience. I have coached gymnastics for almost 10 years and have been a babysitter for multiple families. Additionally, I just graduated in May 2022 from Hampton University where I earned a B.A. in Speech-Language Pathology. I aspire to work with children and open my own practice one day!

Danielle is an excellent sitter! This was our first time using her. She communicated well prior to coming for the job and she showed up on time. I was working on a project at home, so I was able to overhear the interactions between my daughter and Danielle. Danielle has a gentle and kind demeanor and my toddler instantly felt comfortable with her. My 2-year-old really enjoyed spending time with Danielle. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her again!

Hi! I'm Elsa and I'm a 25 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 :)!

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.

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 there!! My name is Vivian, and I absolutely love working with kids and can’t wait to meet your little ones! I have 9 years of babysitting experience caring for children ranging from infants to 10 years old. I’m reliable, patient, and passionate about creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids can learn, play, and grow. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or simply making sure your child feels happy and cared for, I always strive to provide the best care possible. I also have experience as a high school and elementary math and ELA tutor, so I’m more than happy to assist with schoolwork and learning activities. Safety is always my top priority, and I am CPR and First Aid certified, giving families peace of mind while their children are in my care. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and cooking, which I often incorporate into babysitting to keep children engaged and having fun. I’m also comfortable with meal prep, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, and caring for pets if needed. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide loving, dependable care for your little ones!

Lakisha B.
“Bibian” as my 2 year old daughter calls her was awesome every time she sat with my kiddos. I cannot recommend this babysitter enough! From the very beginning, she was dependable, kind, patient, and incredibly attentive with my children. She created such a safe, fun, and comforting environment that my kids genuinely looked forward to spending time with her. She communicated well, showed up on time, and always went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. As a parent, having someone you can fully trust with your children brings so much peace of mind, and she absolutely provided that. My children adored her, and it was clear she truly cared about them and their well-being. Any family would be lucky to have her as their sitter. I’m beyond grateful for the care, support, and positive energy she brought into our home. Save some bookings for me ?

Hello, I’m a highly educated graduate of Virginia Tech State University & graduated with a BS degree. I have recently retired from an extremely successful & fulfilling IT Sales career. I’m very excited about my new part-time career as a babysitter for infants, children, and teens! I have more than 11 years of Nanny experience watching my 6 grandchildren. I also have experience babysitting older children and twin babies! I am well-versed in taking this next step by making this my new part-time career! I'm extremely excited to learn about your family and how I can "make a difference" in your babies, children, and teens' lives, as they certainly will in mine. I'm skilled in snack & meal prep, homework, diaper changes, sleep strategies, light housework, dog sitting, etc. Also, I drive a “VERY safe & dependable” automobile and am typically VERY neat and organized. I assure you that you will NOT come home to a messy house. I enjoy getting creative with regards to activities for young and even older children. Maybe some crafting, playing games, taking fun walks, or a great game of hide & seek! Older children might want to throw the football around outside with me or take a walk around the neighborhood. I'm patient and kind and absolutely love building connections with young children as well as teens. Also, I have completed and passed my Driving Record and Background check and will gladly send you the results if requested. Also, I charge an additional $1 for one extra child and $2 for 2 additional children. I'm excited to combine my love for infants, children & teens with a part-time babysitter role. My goal will be to ensure that your children have an extremely safe and loving environment whenever I am with them. Let’s create wonderful childhood memories “together”. I’m looking forward to hearing from you! (I am available Monday – Friday 9 am – 4 pm and some weekends) KK
