I would love to spend time reading to your children, playing outside, exploring nature, and dancing in the kitchen. I have taught preschool for three years. I have extensive experience babysitting, and I have eight years of teaching experience at the middle and high school level. I speak fluent German, and I would be happy to immerse your children in German and support their language development. I have worked as a full-time nanny for four years, with ages ranging from newborn (twins) to seven. **Allergic to cats**

“Jan was on time, very kind, positive and my son had a great time playing with her. She was a great help while my husband and I got chores done around the house!”

Reyna 3 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Beltsville, MD

Hi! My name is Reyna. I am a paralegal by profession and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. My experience with childcare began through helping care for my younger siblings and children of friends and family over several years, starting with babies as small as three months. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. In addition, I am very active and enjoy hands on activities and being outdoors. I do work full time during the day so my availability is mostly evenings and weekends.

“Reyna was awesome with our two boys ages 4 and 2! They got to practice their Spanish and read books together. Our kids really liked her and we look forward to working with her again.”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
