Hello families! I’m the mother of an amazing 1 year boy and I am a highly experienced warm and friendly Nanny/Babysitter who is currently available for Part Time or On Call/Backup/Date Night care in my safe and clean home. I am very passionate about what I do, and I absolutely love working with children. I hold certificates in the following areas: -90 hours Certificate consisting of Child Growth and Development and Curriculum Planning -CPR and First Aid -Positive Child Guidance and Discipline Theory -SIDS. With 10+ years experience working with 2 month olds to 10-year-olds, you can rest assured I have the knowledge and patience to properly care for your child. Safety is very important to me, because your child is priceless; therefore they will always be given the best care. I'm not the type of person to just immerse myself into my phone the whole day while your child watches T.V. and entertains himself/herself. I feel that it’s very important to get down to the child’s level and I will enthusiastically engage in both fun and educational activities with your little one. Oh, and I'm an advocate for reading and language development/vocabulary building! I'm very reliable, punctual, friendly, and responsible. Whether last minute, on call, date nights, or overnights, feel free to reach out, and if I’m available then you can count on me. Certificates, resume and professional references available upon request!

Hi! My name is Christina. I love working with kids and have experience caring for children ages 1 to 9. I have the most hands-on experience with babies and toddlers. I was a caregiver for my twin cousins when they were 1 year old, providing about 25 hours of care per week for 8 months. They also have an elementary-aged child so I am comfortable and experienced in taking care of up to 3 children at a time. I’m currently looking for a part-time babysitting job in the mornings. I am available 7am- 2pm on weekdays, and all day on weekends. Right now, I nanny for a family on weekday afternoons (3-8pm), so this would be my second job. I’m a University of Maryland graduate and a former Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). I have also been CPR certified and am comfortable caring for children with special medical needs or disabilities. I am half Chinese and can speak Mandarin conversationally (I am not strong in reading and writing, but grew up speaking Chinese at home with my parents). In addition to general childcare, I can help with: -Academic tutoring (Math, English, history, etc.) - Light housekeeping - Bedtime/Bathtime routine - Meal Preparation - Driving to and from school or activities (I have my own car and 2 car seats suitable for children under 6) -Assisting with parties, playdates, or sleepovers I would describe myself as positive, reliable, and attentive. Some kids just need calm supervision after a long day, while others thrive on creative play, outdoor adventures, or educational games. I’m happy to provide both types of support and to tailor my approach to your family’s needs. Happy to provide references and any additional information that you may require!

Hello My name is Muriel I have worked with children for 11years, I have plenty of experience working in day cares and with different families. I have a CPR and First aid certification, also I have studied some child development classes. I use to nanny for many families but I took some time off to be with my little one now he is older and am ready to work full time or part time. I do have plenty of references and recommendation letters if needed. Well a little bit about me I believe when taking care of children they need attention love and plenty of imagination and fun activities so usually with me its about having a good time and following the rules the parents have left for us and safety, since that is what I instill in my own child and if someone took care of my own child I would want that person to treat him with love, be sweet to him and have fun with him while still following the rules. Well I hope that explained a little bit about myself, if you want to get in contact with me just leave me a message and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

Hi! I'm Elsa and I'm a 24 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 :)!
