Hi, I’m Phoebe! If there’s one thing everyone knows about me, it’s my deep love for children and my dedication to helping them grow into confident, independent, and joyful individuals. I believe that truly exceptional child care starts with creating a space where every child feels safe, seen, and free to be themselves. From there, I focus on guiding them toward independence, encouraging their unique personalities, and supporting their growth with warmth, patience, and purpose.I bring years of hands-on experience both as a trusted nanny for families and as an early childhood educator at Bright Horizons. In these roles, I have supported everything from daily home routines and household maintenance to curriculum planning, potty training, and early speech development. Through my position at Bright Horizons, I completed rigorous training in child safety, brain development, curriculum design, and early education. This has given me a strong foundation not only in caregiving but also in nurturing each child's growth with intention and care. Whether I am working one-on-one in a home or supporting a group in a classroom, my focus is always the same: creating a safe, nurturing space where children feel confident to be themselves while developing independence and essential life skills.

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!

Hi Moms and Dads thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Sherry living in Gaithersburg Md. I have worked as a babysitter /nanny for over 40yrs. I worked for family's all over Montgomery County . I have work with preemies, new-born, toddlers and school age children. I have had experience with down syndrome children and one that requires a feeding tube. As a nanny I want your child/children to know that I am there to keep them safe and give love while their parents work. I will protect them as if they are my own. I read, sing song, go out, do craft and get down on the floor, and play. I enjoy going to story time and other activities. Sorry, I don't do public pools. I have travel with my family's to other states. I even travel to Spain with one of my family and stayed for 2months. I also do short term jobs and long term. My last family I was with for 3 years. I try to to support my family's as much as I can, whether it's a emergency or something else. I like to build a bond with the kids that I take care of so they feel safe and love at all times. Yes this is a job but how can you spend time with beautiful kids and not love on them. I do have my own car seats less then 2yrs old and kept clean. They are Graco.

I switched careers from Administration to Childcare starting at the end of 2013. I have experience working with live-in and live-out families (infant-teen). I finally realize I'm doing what I love and will open a home daycare in the future.

I am a mother of two teenage boys, so have been parenting for about 15 years. Prior to becoming a mother, I was a nanny for many years while in college and graduate school and a babysitter while in middle and high school. I have CPR and 1St Aid Certifications and am highly experienced with dealing with any issues that may arise while caring for infants, young children, tweens and teens. I love supporting kids to play and learn from experiences (games, crafts, sports) but am also ready to support homework and school assignments. I am comfortable with all kinds of pets and happy to feed them or take them for walks. I take family rules seriously and will work with the children to make sure that tasks and chores are completed when required.

My name is Nicole. I am a dedicated, professional nanny with well over 10 years of experience providing exceptional care for children of all ages.

I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids because they bring so much joy, energy, and creativity into each day. I love knowing I can provide a safe, fun, and supportive environment while giving parents peace of mind. I’ve cared for children of all ages from infants to school-aged kids through babysitting for family, friends, and neighbors. My experience includes preparing meals, toileting, planning engaging activities, and maintaining routines like bedtime. I’m patient, dependable, and great at keeping kids engaged with age-appropriate activities. I’m also trained in CPR and basic first aid, so I’m always prepared to handle emergencies if they arise. Most importantly, I bring warmth, responsibility, and a genuine love for working with children.

Children and I enjoyed many parents Biografia I prefer a position in which I am needed to help, not replace the parent, in an informal atmosphere. I am seeking a long-term position with a family. Ideally with an infant or young children. i am seeking a situation where I may build a rapport to supplement the parents. I am flexible and capable of doing any of the housework listed, but not at the expense of time with the children. I would also wish to find parents whose philosophy of childcare is in agreement with mine. Those who show their children constant love Those who accept them and respect them, shower them with attention when they want it, and limits only when they need them. Also, parents who will be there to show them the world and help to raise great kids. thank you, I LOVE WORKING TOGETHER and we will see your children grow healthy: physical & mental.
