With a Bachelor of Science in Health Promotion and over five years of experience working with children, I bring a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to every family I work with. As a nanny and pervious elementary school teacher, I developed a passion for guiding and educating young minds. My bubbly and friendly personality allows me to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents, creating a positive and nurturing environment for everyone. I am committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of the children in my care. My background in health promotion means I have a deep understanding of child development and the importance of fostering healthy habits. I also have experience in tutoring, making me an ideal choice for families seeking educational support. Additionally, I am skilled in providing senior care, pet care, and special needs support, ensuring that I can meet the diverse needs of any household. If you're looking for a nanny who is dedicated, reliable, and has a genuine love for working with children, I would be thrilled to join your family and provide the compassionate care you deserve.

I’m experienced and comfortable working with children of all ages—from infants and toddlers to older kids. My background includes leading activities as an elementary summer camp program leader as well as tutoring and mentoring middle and high schoolers here in DC. I’m patient, super reliable, and always happy to help with homework, creative play, or any housework that needs to be done. I’m also a huge animal lover (I have a cat named Henry!) and would love to bring my energy and experience to help your family!😊

Hi there! My name is Zay :) I’m currently a senior student-athlete at Howard University, where I compete on the swim and dive team. Im health science major with a minor in biology. I have experience working with children through several roles, including as a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and as a Student Leader Intern (SLI) for the Children’s Defense Fund Freedom Schools program. I was also involved in my schools Best Buddies program and am well versed in communicating with kids with special needs.

Mom to 2 amazing kids in elementary school. Three years of experience as an au-pair and nanny before becoming a parent. Experience volunteering in elementary school and preschool as a teacher aide. I love being in nature, playing with kids outdoors, dancing to silly songs, reading, baking, and making art. I practice positive and peaceful parenting, focusing the connection between child and their caregiver. Serving children and families is my passion. As an immigrant and a mother who started raising her children without "the village", I'm deeply in touch with the unmet needs of families with young children in the US. I am passionate about supporting families with what they need to thrive and succeed- childcare, social-emotional supports for parents, and engaging the family with the community. I’m pursuing a graduate certificate in maternal and child health and planning a career change from research in public policy to child therapist.
