Kristina L., Child Care in Mount Airy, MD 21771 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi there! I am currently a recent graduate from Towson University, looking for work as a nanny / babysitter. After receiving my degree in Psychology, I found that I was most interested in learning about child development, early education, and family studies in my courses. Caring for families has further sparked my interest in these subjects - I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old, and love doing it as my current job! I have 8+ years of experience caring for over 15 families - this experience includes children of all different ages, from infants to pre-teens. I have volunteered as a helper or "companion" for a disabled child in the past for the Montgomery County Recreational Department. I have experience volunteering at elementary schools, working with children, and have been involved in philanthropic events for Children's Miracle Network Hospital. Also, I have been involved in other volunteer work in nursing homes and fundraisers for children's medical expenses and needs for their families. I am CPR and First AID Certified (including infant, pediatric, and adult) as well.

Kristina is a awesome babysitter who is reliable, trustworthy, and great with kids! We were in a bind a few months ago because our nanny left us unexpectedly. I had about 6 weeks to go before I was going to be out on maternity leave for our second child and we needed someone to work in a part-time nanny capacity until I stopped working. We were fearful that we wouldn’t find anyone who would be reliable and trustworthy since it was a temporary position, but we were SO thankful when we met Kristina! She was amazing and willing to work with our schedules and keep up with my toddler’s routine so that the transition from our old nanny to her wasn’t super difficult for him. She communicated well and always looked for ways to enrich our son’s days— took him for walks, colored/did crafts, etc. She never relied on TV or an iPad to entertain him and she kept with his routine as much as possible. You can absolutely trust her with your kids and we can’t recommend her enough!

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!

Elsa J., Child Care in Mount Airy, MD 21771 with 6 years of paid experience

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 :)!

Amy is a 10 out of 10 sitter. My sons felt immediately at ease with “Ms. Amy” who is calm and steady, but also fun and engaged. She took time to connect with my children, which was reassuring. She listened carefully during our interview, and her interactions with my sons were positive; they loved her. She provided references and her recent background check. Amy was professional, and asked solid questions to ensure her approach would align with my preferences for my sons. Will work with her again!

Kristen M., Child Care in Mount Airy, MD 21771 with 18 years of paid experience

Hello Families of SitterCity! I have decided to open my availability to start scheduling “date night”, weekend & occasional sitting! I am a full time nanny, but when you love what you do, doing it all the time makes it easy to do! I love helping, spending time with and teaching children of all ages. I have an extensive background in healthcare as a Certified Medical Assistant and FDA Study Research Coordinator (4 ½ years in Pediatrics, 7 weeks years in Women’s Health/OBGYN and 1 year in Cardiology). I was in Nursing School, but had to stop when my mom became ill. I hope to soon obtain my Newborn Care Specialist certificate, and I am also perusing my Doula birth/labor and postpartum certification. My passion for helping people goes way beyond an “office” setting. I truly enjoy spending time with an entire family and helping out in all aspects. I’ve been with my current nanny family for 18 months, since their little one was 3 months old. The family I was with prior I was with for 2 year (since their little one was 2 months). I’ve also been a medical caregiver for 2 years for a little one who was born at 24 weeks. I worked directly with his care team including Infants & Toddlers, PT/OT/SLP, developmental pediatrician and primary pediatrician and GI. I have always loved children and families, and both of my older sisters turned to me for help after their had their kids (I have 4 nephews). Many parents/grandparents have called me the “baby whisperer”. My currently availability is: weekends, weekday evenings (“Date night”), and occasional Fridays after 1pm. I have extensive experience caring for children, both well and sick, special needs, and I am also able to do overnight stays! I'd love to care for your children, too! I started babysitting when I was a young teen for families in the neighborhood, and younger members in my own family. I'm professional, trustworthy, patient, experienced and organized, and know how to be fun and silly with little ones (and don’t mind digging in the dirt, playing with sidewalk chalk, or mixing up a fresh batch of playdoh).

I don't think words can even begin to describe how phenomenal Adrian is as a caregiver. We hired Adrian in July 2021 as a full-time nanny for our 6 month old son and she was with us for two years until my family moved out of state. My husband and I are both physicians and have very early morning work hours (sometimes as early as 515am) and long days (12-14 hours). Adrian always said "just tell me when you need me and I'll be there" and it was the truth. She was so flexible and accomodating to our busy lives and we could rely on 110%. Even if there were last minute changes to our schedules she would always make it work for us. Even with her high reliability and work ethic, that paled in comparison to how much she truly cared about our son and how well she treated him. As first time parent she was so helpful in getting him on a consistent schedule for us (he used to almost never nap in his crib before her), she was very educational too teaching him colors, numbers, and so many words! I trusted Adrian completely with his safety and she would always touch base if she was ever concerned about anything. Our son is very active and always wanting to explore and be on the go, but Adrian kept right up and introduced him to so many new things and places like the zoo, different parks, museums, splash pads, she even took him to swim lessons! I never once worried about his safety and honestly Adrian became just like part of our family. She was so easy to work with and talk to and really cared about our family's values, making sure to incorporate that into her care and routine with our son. My son absolutely adored Adrian. He would light up when she would walk into our house and when it was time to leave he would stand at the front window saying goodbye and blowing kisses until she drove away. If we could have taken her with us when we moved I would have in a heartbeat. Any family would be lucky to have her in their lives and we will truly miss her in ours.

Shakera R., Child Care in Mount Airy, MD 21771 with 13 years of paid experience

I’m a passionate and experienced childcare provider with over 10 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I’ve spent a large part of my career with the YMCA in before- and after-school programs, where I supported children’s development through structured activities, homework help, and positive behavior guidance. I also have daycare experience working closely with infants and toddlers, focusing on routines, early learning, and creating a safe, nurturing environment. In addition to my center-based experience, I’ve worked as a nanny for multiple families, where I provided personalized care, helped manage daily schedules, and transported children to and from activities. I’ve also stepped into leadership roles, including serving as a substitute director, which strengthened my ability to manage responsibilities, communicate effectively with families, and lead with confidence. I’m CPR/First Aid trained and vaccinated. I bring a warm, energetic, and attentive approach to every family I work with. I truly enjoy building strong connections with children and supporting their growth in a fun, safe, and engaging way.

Shakera was wonderfully engaging with our toddler — patient, attentive, and clearly passionate about early childhood. Our little one made real progress with new words during her stay, which we credit entirely to the rich, stimulating interaction Shakera provided throughout each day.
