Hi there! I'm Maria, and I’d love to help care for your little ones!! With a heart full of patience and a genuine love for children, I bring over 5 years of experience to babysitting. Whether it’s playtime, helping with homework, or simply being a comforting presence, I’m here to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your kids. I believe every child is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual needs and interests. I enjoy quality time with the kids so I’m always ready to get creative with a plan or game ideas (puzzles, pillow castles, arts and crafts, visits to a museum, home spa time, cook a recipe or big legos towers). My goal is to not just look after your kids, but to help them feel happy and secure while you’re away. If you're looking for a trusted, kind, and playful babysitter, I’d love the opportunity to meet and chat! (Quick note I’m Infant qualified, I have a CPR and First Aid certification)

Hello!! My name is Iyana. I am a graduate student at Bowie State University. I have 5 years of experience working with children from infants to elementary school aged children. I previously taught 8th grade for a year and a half, working with students who have learning disabilities such as dyslexia, ADHD, and autism. I love being a sitter because each child is different, so every experience is different. I love getting to know each child on an individual level and learning their likes and dislikes. My favorite things to do as a sitter are playing board games, karaoke, going hiking, and cooking.

Hello! My name is saniyah and i am a sophomore at Bowie State University! i love children and seeing them smile warms my heart. I love working with children because they make me feel safe and happy, i could be having the worst day ever and seeing a kid smile or laugh can make my day 10x better. I have worked in a daycare for about a year and a half on & off. I also babysit my siblings/cousins. Something that is different about me is the love i have for children and how soft and gentle i am with them. I think children should be treated with respect and tons of love/care.

Hi! My name is Michaela-Joyce, and I’m a proud graduate of Howard University, where I studied Bioethics with minors in Chemistry and Political Science. Babysitting has always held a special place in my heart; it’s the one job that consistently brings joy to my day! With over seven years of experience, I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to high schoolers, in a variety of settings, including private homes, daycares, and church nurseries. I also have four years of experience working with children on the autism spectrum, creating tailored activities to meet their unique needs. Currently, I work at a nonprofit helping kids with mental health and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) in the Prince George’s County School District. I’ve completed a background check and fingerprinting for the state of Maryland and DC as part of my job, so you can trust that I’m thoroughly vetted. I love sparking creativity through fun, innovative, and engaging activities, especially those centered around art or STEM, to keep their imagination alive. Safety is my top priority; I’m CPR, First Aid, and BLS certified and fully vaccinated, including boosters. With a flexible schedule, I’m excited to bring my nurturing, reliable care to your family. I can’t wait to connect and help create wonderful memories with your little ones!

I am a nurturing, creative and responsible caregiver. I have taken care of and held company jobs working with several children. I have experience with guiding the development of milestones, preparing meals, keeping children entertained, helping with homework, giving baths, housekeeping, and staying overnight. I have experience working with multiples (twins) and large groups of children. My goal is to assume the role of role model, teacher and nurturer as I flourish the child’s existence with educational activities, role play, outdoor fun all while building the structure an infant needs to become a cooperative, functional toddler, into an inquisitive child, into a mindful, well-spoken teenager, into a more than capable young adult ready to utilize the skills that quality home rearing can provide. I have no issues working within the guidelines of each parents needs and understand how important communication is where it concerns the child. I am CPR and First Aid certified and also gained my Professional Nanny and Childcare Provider certification. Can't wait to meet you and your family!
