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! ”

“I got stuck in DC because of flight cancellations and ending up with my 3 year old daughter and prep meeting with clients for an important next day meeting. Mary Beth arrived at the hotel promptly (in advance) and with only a request that afternoon. My daughter loved her. Indeed, she was able to do things with Patina that are hard for me -- get her to draw, tell stories, get her PJs on, and get into bed on time. Terrific.”
