Hello! My name is Sara Perez, and I am a stay-at-home mom to a beautiful baby girl. Becoming a mother has deepened my love for children and strengthened my ability to create a nurturing, safe, and joyful environment. I would love the opportunity to care for another child alongside my daughter. I come from a large, close-knit family, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for babies, toddlers, and children of all ages. I’m very comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, nap schedules, diaper changes, and playtime. I also love engaging children in fun, creative activities that support their growth and development. What I Offer • Loving, responsible, and reliable care • Experience with infants, toddlers, and young children • Age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities to encourage learning and creativity • Outdoor playtime for exercise and fresh air (when possible) • A bilingual environment—I can speak Spanish to both children if parents prefer • A safe, social setting where your child can play and learn alongside my baby Availability I am available on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Why Families Choose Me As both a mom and a caregiver, I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their child is safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every child as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and full attention. My goal is to give parents peace of mind, knowing their little one is in caring and trustworthy hands.

Sara is wonderful! She has done a great job with our almost 2 year old son. She brings her daughter who is the same age as our son and it’s been great for him to have another toddler to play with. She is very conscious and sends us pictures and videos during the day. She also is WAY more organized than we are and straightens up our house which has been enormously helpful. She’s reliable and even teaching our son Spanish. Cannot recommend enough.

I am an extremely proud parent who has realized that for me, raising children has been the most rewarding part of my life. I adore and respect all children and am aware that they perceive this and connect to me easily. Contributing to a child's smile and to a child's growth are important to me and that is why I came to sittercity.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Angie to care for our baby and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. From the very beginning, Angie was the epitome of professionalism—always punctual, organized, and prepared for each day with a warm smile and positive attitude. Her attention to detail and dedication to maintaining a clean, safe environment gave us tremendous peace of mind. Whether it was keeping toys organized, tidying up after meals, or maintaining an overall sense of order, Angie was incredibly helpful. Beyond her professionalism, she showed deep attentiveness and a genuine love for children. Angie was always highly communicative, keeping us updated throughout the day with thoughtful notes and observations. She truly listened to and understood our child’s needs, responding with incredible care and patience. Our child absolutely adores her, and it’s easy to see why. Her combination of reliability, warmth, and skill is truly rare. We feel so lucky to have had her in our lives and wholeheartedly recommend Angie to any family looking for exceptional childcare.

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!

I just retired as a tenured professor and I want to engage in that which I have always most enjoyed; working with children 3-6 years old. I was a single mother who always had my son and his pals with whom I engaged in the most rewarding activities of discovery with them, be it reading with them, doing nature hikes, giving them pony rides (we live on a horse farm), or taking them to museums. I also worked many summers on Martha’s Vineyard at the Karey Children’s camp which was so rewarding. I miss the intellectual curiosity of children because college students seem to have lost it due to the over reliance on technology. I am very physically fit, ride three times a week, hike, and swim weekly. I have traveled the world to all over Europe, Scandinavia, the Caribbean, but now is not the time to travel, so I would love to be able to enjoy my new free time making a difference in a child’s life. Every College & University in Maryland requires FBI fingerprinting and checks, as does TSA pre-check. I have all of those clearances and am not paying to duplicate that here. I have a LinkedIn profile with my professional record and endorsements which you are free to access. I have many colleagues with young children who can attest to my babysitting skills, as well as parents of friends. I just, obviously, have not done it professionally during the time I have been a full-time professor. I am someone who will energetically interact with your child (not be distracted {as my students are by their phones} continuously). I would only allow "screen time" if you do so as part of your parenting. I personally think it is one of the biggest issues inhibiting the healthy curiosity and intellectual development of children. I am committed to inspiring a sense of wonder in nature and a love of reading. I will also respect whatever your parenting entails. I look forward to working with you and your child and hope to give you the peace of mind that experienced, older caregivers gave me when I was raising my son.

I am the oldest of four kids. From a young age I’ve always taken care of kids and enjoyed every moment. For the past five years, I've had the joy of caring for children aged newborn to eleven. I enjoy engaging kids with outdoor sports, board games, and even educational activities that make learning fun. I am comfortable caring for up to three children at a time. I'm known for my bubbly and energetic personality, and my ability to connect with kids of all ages. I am also very comfortable enforcing your household rules. I will always communicate with you at pickup, or via text or phone call, based on your preference. I have a car, I’m in college, and am comfortable with pets! I also hold current certifications in CPR and First Aid. Ultimately, my goal is to support your family and provide a safe, fun, and enriching environment where your children can thrive. I look forward to bringing my passion for childcare to your home.

I am a college senior on an MD/PhD track, which reflects my strong sense of responsibility and commitment to learning. I love nurturing children’s curiosity and helping them feel supported and encouraged to explore the world around them. I enjoy engaging children through age-appropriate games, books, and activities that encourage creativity, problem-solving, and fun, while also maintaining a safe and structured environment. I have ~2 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings. This includes regular babysitting, serving as a summer camp counselor where I taught STEM subjects, and working as a student tutor. I can assist with homework and after-school activities, especially in STEM subjects. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I communicate clearly with both children and parents.
