Taya  H., Nanny in Riva, MD 21140 with 6 years of paid experience

Hello my name is Taya , I’m 24 years old and I’m interested in being your sitter. I have 9 years experience with babysitting and child care ,which I was an after school sitter for several different families, for children from pre-school through the 7th grade. I have about 4 years experience working with children who have autism and/or a special disability. I babysit ages anywhere from infant to 13 years old. i have exactly 5 years experience with newborns-3 year olds. I absolutely love being around children and they LOVE being around me. They just bring absolute joy to my heart. I absolutely LOVE the outdoors. I am CPR certified ,I know basic Sign language and basic Spanish, I also have my own car and a clean driving record. I am very caring ,loving, trustworthy, patient and outgoing and love doing different activities that children will find entertaining and enjoy doing. Babysitting/nannying is something I love doing because everyday is something different and it’s absolutely amazing to be apart of a child’s learning and seeing them grow as a person. Families would describe me as someone with a pure heart & genuine intentions. Someone who is trustworthy & reliable & someone is is always in a positive mood. I became a caregiver because I love love love children. I absolutely adore them , they fill a special place in my heart and I love it. The love I have for children is out of this world and I’m more than happy that I make a HUGE POSITIVE impact on these children's lives. It means a lot to me !

Maria  A., Nanny in Riva, MD 21140 with 5 years of paid experience

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)

Ms. Sheri is a Godsend. I hired her for a sitting job for a family BBQ. Not only did she and her daughter sit for the two children in attendance but also were a tremendous help with prepping for the party and assisted in the kitchen and grill during the party. I will hire her again without hesitation.

Lashae B., Nanny in Riva, MD 21140 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I have always loved working with children as it is one of my passions. I am patient, caring, and sympathetic. I am also a lot of fun! I am fluent in French and I love to teach it to younger kids. I have several years of experience in childcare as I worked at a day care center over a few summers, and I have also volunteered at many childcare centers. I am the oldest of 3 sisters which has taught me a lot about what it means to care for others. So if you're looking for a trustworthy sitter that will care for your child, look no further!

Victoria H., Nanny in Riva, MD 21140 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi families! I’m Victoria, a BLS/CPR-certified nursing student currently earning my RN, with the goal of becoming a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. Nursing is my third degree—I also hold a B.S. in Biology and a Master’s in Public Health from Columbia University. I have 3 years of paid childcare experience and over 10 years of experience working with children in educational and community settings. My childcare experience includes working in a daycare, teaching 3rd-grade science, and tutoring children of different ages. I’ve always loved creating an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and excited to learn. I enjoy reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, educational games, science experiments, homework help, and finding creative, screen-free ways to have fun. While earning my master’s in New York City, I developed an even greater appreciation for child development and the importance of positive, supportive relationships during childhood. That experience helped inspire my decision to pursue pediatric nursing and dedicate my career to caring for children and families. As a sitter, I’m kind, patient, attentive, dependable, and safety-conscious. I’m comfortable balancing fun with routines and boundaries while making sure children feel heard, encouraged, and cared for. I’m also happy to provide tutoring or additional educational support when needed. I have reliable transportation and drive a newer Volvo XC40, which I chose with safety in mind. I also understand that every family’s schedule is different, so I offer flexible availability, including early mornings, daytime care, evenings, and late nights. Whether you need regular support, help around your work or school schedule, or a dependable sitter for date nights, I’d love to be someone your family can count on!

Claudia T., Nanny in Riva, MD 21140 with 7 years of paid experience

As a teenager and babysitter I knew I wanted to work with children but as a pediatric doctor, But once I took Child development classes and parenting it really opened my eyes to another interest and that was being a early childhood education teacher. taking these classes I learned a lot about a parent perspective and childcare teachers as well in certain situations also along with being a teacher studying the different methods and also hands on experience on writing lesson plans and actually interacting with the children. By my senior year I did an internship at a child care facility to experience how a center is ran and the interaction with the children and teachers. After I graduated I worked for Kindercare Learning Center over a year, Children Of America almost 3 years, and a privately owned daycare for over a year before I recently decided to help local families who need care for their children.
