Booked by 1 family in Cobb Island, MD

Hi! I’m Kelsey — an experienced nanny and infant teacher with a strong background in early childhood care. I’ve worked as a Head Start teacher, infant room teacher, and private nanny, caring for children from newborn through preschool age. I’m especially comfortable with infants and toddlers, including feeding breast milk, supporting developmental milestones, managing routines, and handling illness or challenging behaviors calmly and safely. I’m organized, reliable, and communicative, and I believe in keeping parents informed about their child’s day and development. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, attending library programs, and creating a nurturing environment where children can grow and feel secure. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping and family routines as well. I look forward to supporting your family!

Great communication and very accommodating. Would definitely book again!

Booked by 3 families in Cobb Island, MD

Hello! My name is Kelynn, and I’m currently a senior Computer Science major at Howard University. I am offering child care, tutoring, pet care, and household services. I’ve been caring for children since high school, including babysitting during summers, teaching Sunday school, and working in my church’s nursery. I also have a younger brother who is ten years my junior, which gave me daily, hands-on childcare experience. I’ve worked with children of all ages and love engaging them with fun, creative activities. My background as a dancer has taught me how to balance imagination, fun, and discipline. I’m also strong in academics, especially math, and enjoy helping with homework and tutoring. I graduated high school with a 4.2 GPA and currently maintain a 3.9 at Howard. I have my own reliable transportation and am happy to help with drop-offs/pickups. In addition to childcare, I am experienced with pets; I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and am very comfortable with pet care (walking, feeding, playing, etc.).

Thank you!

Booked by 1 family in Cobb Island, MD

It’s always a great feeling when you have someone dependable for quality care. Look no further! My name is Alexandra and I’ve been working with children infant to school age for more than 14 plus years. I gained my first experience working aside my grandmother as an elementary teacher, until she was promoted to principal. After retiring she decided to continue her love for children when she opened her own licensed preschool. At that time I was very young but always said when I grew up I wanted become a teacher. That dream became reality! Today I have not only stuck with early childhood education but now an assistant director at a preschool where I can continue to utilize my creativity through education. I’m loving, caring, honest, fun and enjoy daily making a difference in our little lives life.
