Tiffany W., Child Care in Smithsburg, MD 21783 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello, My name is Tiffany. I currently work full time in accounting while I care for 3-year-old twins and a 4-year-old boy when mom needs time for herself. This includes the preparation of meals, assisting in potty training, educational play, bath, and bedtime routine. I have also worked on and off for 5 years for a family of 9-year-old twin boys and a 13-year-old girl which included; picking them up from school, driving them to their activities, guiding them with homework, housework, preparing dinner for the family, and getting the children to bed. A few years ago, I was in Spain as an Au Pair living with a family of a 5-year-old girl. I taught her English, took her to her activities, and helped with housework. I enjoy hiking, doing nails, going to the beach, cooking, swimming, doing arts and crafts, and exploring new things. I am an upbeat, responsible, patient, and well-organized person who is great at multitasking. I have references available who would be happy to speak with you on my behalf. I welcome the opportunity to talk with you more about caring for your children. I hope that you will review my profile and contact me to discuss the position. For me, being a nanny is not simply a job, it is important for me to build a relationship with your family. I wish you good luck in your search and I thank you for taking the time to consider me. Kind Regards, Tiffany Whitney

We met Tiffany on Saturday to nanny our two and a half year old son for seven days while our usual nanny is out of town. Our son was really comfortable playing with her. She is super responsible and good with children.

I did not get to have Josie as a sitter because a family member decided to watch my child, but we did get to talk and had a schedule figured out. Josie is super sweet and I could tell she would have been a great fit for my son. I do plan on reaching out for future child sitting needs if she’s available. Thank you for your time Josie!

If you're looking for someone who embodies compassion and empathy, look no further than Lelo. Over the past year, she has been a remarkable caregiver for my daughter, and our journey together began through our church activities, where Lelo generously volunteered in the children’s church sessions. Since then, she has become an irreplaceable part of our family, providing not only exceptional care but also warmth and joy in our home. We cannot recommend Lelo highly enough. Her dependability, nurturing spirit, and respectful demeanor make her a standout caregiver. If you have any questions or need more information, please reach out to us.

Meghan was really wonderful with our 6 month old son. She arrived on time both times and was great, very sweet, and it seems like our son had fun with her. I wish she lived near us but she is only in town on school break. Emily

Mary P., Child Care in Smithsburg, MD 21783 with 15 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Mary Brooke and I prefer to go by Brooke. I am 27 years old and hoping to fill some free time in order to save enough money to start a small farm. I currently would as a County Executive Director for Baltimore and Harford. Living in Frederick County, I am no stranger to driving distances. Being the oldest child and cousin watching after my younger family members was a great experience in my youth. In college, I set up the SitterCity account for just one of my many jobs. I graduated in 2019 with a Bachelors in Large Animal and Dairy Sciences. I am very comfortable with animals as well! I now enjoy time, when I can, with my niece and nephews. Please feel free to ask me any questions! My availability would be most weekends and afternoon/evenings. I get off work at 4:30, so depending on your location and travel I would be available after then.

Felisha interviewed for our nanny position in Feb 2014. She did a fantastic job. She was very articulate and engaging. Unfortunately, she had already accepted another position closer to her home by the time we offered her the job. She has babysat for us and was a temporary nanny for us for two weeks while she waited for her permanent job to start. Felisha is a very lively and fun young lady. She was great with the kids and my 90-year old mother. She has a great deal of initiative. She cleaned out the refrigerator, organized the girls’ rooms, and took my mother shopping, all without being asked. We strongly recommend her.
