Abby A., Nanny in Jefferson, MD 21755 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Abby, a caring, responsible, and patient sitter currently based in Frederick, Maryland. I'm 23 years old and recently completed my B.A. in Psychology at the University of Maryland–Baltimore County with a minor in dance. I have a strong background in childcare, including hands-on experience through a paid internship as a behavior technician with Advancing Beyond the Spectrum, where I worked closely with nonverbal children with autism using ABA therapy techniques. I recently completed interning at the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children headquarters located in Alexandria to help support their mission of keeping children safe. I plan to pursue a Masters in Social Work in 2027 and seek a long term nannying/family assistant position. Working with kids brings me so much joy, it allows me to connect with my inner child, and I truly value the trust families place in me. I'm always ready to meet new challenges with a positive attitude and an open mind. In addition to childcare, I'm also happy to help with pets, I'm an animal lover too! Whether you're looking for someone dependable for occasional sitting or more regular support, I’d love to be part of your family's care team.

My name is Kenzie, and I'm currently looking for the right long-term family to support with exceptional childcare in the Frederick area (New Market, Frederick, Middletown, Myersville, Thurmont, Westminster, Adamstown). Over the past 8 years, I've had the privilege of caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children as a Private Nanny. I provide much more than supervision-| create a safe, loving, structured, and enriching environment where children feel secure, respected, and encouraged to grow into confident, kind, and independent individuals.

We love Makenzie. She’s so creative and always has a new craft or activity up her sleeve. She is dependable and keeps the kids engaged when she is with them. We’d definitely recommend Kenzie for short sits and all day care.

Taryn R., Nanny in Jefferson, MD 21755 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi, I am Taryn! I have been babysitting since 2015, making a living solely from childcare for 5 years. In 2020, I nannied for a 9yo and 5yo for a few months. After that, I nannied for 3 children for 2 years. Following that experience, I took a job as a behavioral technician,. I then worked with a family of 8, primarily focusing on the youngest 2 for 8 months. In that role, I was able to travel with the family. I have cared for up to 4 children, ranging from 4 months to 14 years old. I like to engage the children in whatever interests them, but I also try to incorporate new activities and get outside. I am physically active and able to keep up with high energy children, but I also enjoy reading, painting, and crafting. As a behavioral technician, I have learned how to teach new skills and appropriately respond to tantrums and aggression. I try to encourage children to understand their emotions and learn independence skills in a way that’s fun for them! I am looking for a part time or babysitting work, while I’m in school for biology. I have a degree in psychology and will be looking into neuroscience for my masters degree. I can work with all ages. I have a car. I’m comfortable with doing housework, meal prepping, running errands, toilet training, facilitating nap or bed time, overseeing playdates, and any other reasonable requests relating to childcare. Safety is very important to me. I no longer hold my CPR certification, but I would be willing to get the certification upon request. I value clear communication with parents to ensure everyone’s expectations are being met. I always give a quick debrief of the day, as it’s been ingrained in me through my work as a behavioral technician. So looking forward to getting to know your little tikes!

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.

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.

Kristen M., Nanny in Jefferson, MD 21755 with 18 years of paid experience

Hello Families of SitterCity! I have decided to open my availability to start scheduling “date night”, weekend & occasional sitting! I am a full time nanny, but when you love what you do, doing it all the time makes it easy to do! I love helping, spending time with and teaching children of all ages. I have an extensive background in healthcare as a Certified Medical Assistant and FDA Study Research Coordinator (4 ½ years in Pediatrics, 7 weeks years in Women’s Health/OBGYN and 1 year in Cardiology). I was in Nursing School, but had to stop when my mom became ill. I hope to soon obtain my Newborn Care Specialist certificate, and I am also perusing my Doula birth/labor and postpartum certification. My passion for helping people goes way beyond an “office” setting. I truly enjoy spending time with an entire family and helping out in all aspects. I’ve been with my current nanny family for 18 months, since their little one was 3 months old. The family I was with prior I was with for 2 year (since their little one was 2 months). I’ve also been a medical caregiver for 2 years for a little one who was born at 24 weeks. I worked directly with his care team including Infants & Toddlers, PT/OT/SLP, developmental pediatrician and primary pediatrician and GI. I have always loved children and families, and both of my older sisters turned to me for help after their had their kids (I have 4 nephews). Many parents/grandparents have called me the “baby whisperer”. My currently availability is: weekends, weekday evenings (“Date night”), and occasional Fridays after 1pm. I have extensive experience caring for children, both well and sick, special needs, and I am also able to do overnight stays! I'd love to care for your children, too! I started babysitting when I was a young teen for families in the neighborhood, and younger members in my own family. I'm professional, trustworthy, patient, experienced and organized, and know how to be fun and silly with little ones (and don’t mind digging in the dirt, playing with sidewalk chalk, or mixing up a fresh batch of playdoh).

Jennifer is an awesome sitter and person in general. I was in a pinch and needed someone to babysit my son part time for a while. I initially worried as my son was 5 months at the time and didn't take to new people well. That wasn't the case here. He clicked with Jennifer immediately and she was great with him. Jennifer was also amazing at adapting to our hectic schedules, was so punctual we actually adjusted a clock to her arrival time because we knew it must be wrong, and was able to smoothly watch my older child when sickness took him out of school. It was also an additional plus that Jennifer spoke Spanish as if we had worked with her longer my son would have picked it up as well. We really enjoyed working with Jennifer and would trust her to babysit the kids again, anytime.

Lauren B., Nanny in Jefferson, MD 21755 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi, I'm Lauren! I am a caretaker, an artist and a hobby gardener. As one of six children I am no stranger to the joy-filled chaos of young children, or the necessity of multitasking and prep work to keep a happy household running smoothly. In addition to the immediate tasks of childcare like playtime, planning activities, and helping with schoolwork, I am also comfortable preparing meals and snacks, cleaning and tidying the house, and running whatever errands are most helpful. I have been the go-to neighborhood babysitter since I was a teenager and have had the pleasure of taking care of kids from 6 week old infants to twelve year old preteens! I am Red Cross CPR and First Aid Certified and have volunteer experience working with kids with childhood illness including those dealing with chronic illness, cancer, heart conditions, stoma bags, and other GI issues. I would consider one of my greatest strengths my sincere belief that playing is good for your brain and for your heart, and as long as we can work together there's nothing we can't do. If you have any interest in seeing if I'd be a good fit for your family, please don't hesitate to reach out!
