Booked by 2 families in Severn, MD

Hi, I’m Cia! I come from a big, loving family, so caring for kids has always been a part of my life. I’ve been helping take care of my nieces and nephews since I was about eight years old, and over the years, it’s become something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve also volunteered at churches to watch over children during services and events, which helped me learn how to create a safe, fun, and trusting environment for kids of all ages. I take pride in making sure every child I care for feels seen, valued, and cared for. My goal is to be someone kids can trust, look up to, and feel comfortable around while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands.

“Tycia is timely, communicative, and respectful. She is kind and patient with the kids. My family enjoys working with her.”

Booked by 4 families in Severn, MD

I'm a current master's student studying medical sciences with plans to attend medical school next year. I've always loved working with kids and have several years of experience caring for and engaging with children of all ages. I've led youth ministry at my church, working with toddlers through preteens. This included creating fun and meaningful lessons, supervising during services, and supporting families. My relationships with families in the church have also led to trusted babysitting opportunities. Outside of church, I've volunteered with the Boys and Girls Club, primarily supporting elementary-aged children with science-related activities and after-school care. I come from a large extended family and as the eldest, l've naturally taken on the role of caregiver by providing safe, fun, and nurturing environments for younger family members. I'm known for being patient, dependable, and easy to talk to, and I genuinely enjoy building strong, positive connections with kids and their families.

“Very nice and professional. Arrived on time. Would definitely book her again.”

I love music, bright colors, and turtles. My dream career has always been becoming a teacher. I have always enjoyed seeing the smiles from children when they’re having fun, or excited to learn. I will always make the environment safe so all children can feel welcomed and seen.
