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 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.

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.

I was a babysitter for my extended family and neighbors during my teenage years and as a college graduate. I continued babysitting through graduate school (for education and counseling)and into my early adult years. Even now, as an adult, I still enjoy babysitting because I love children. I have been a teacher in early childhood and elementary schools, as well as a summer camp counselor and director, for many years. As a result of my job in education, I have undergone and cleared several criminal background checks. I am certified in First Aid and CPR, and I have my own car. I enjoy doing schoolwork, participating in sports, playing games, and engaging in arts and crafts with children. I enjoy being positive, creative, and engaging with kids because they have wonderful imaginations, and I love having fun with them. I try to teach children a great deal, but I also always learn a great deal from them! It's always a win-win situation.
