Hi families! 😊 I first came to the U.S. as an Au Pair and cared for wonderful children from June 2019 to December 2023 Since then, I’ve continued working full-time as a nanny for infants and toddlers in the D.C. area, supporting families with daily routines, developmental play, and bilingual learning. I also take on occasional evening, weekend and holidays babysitting for local families. I’m very patient, kind, and reliable, also I truly enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and happy. I’m a native Spanish speaker, fluent in English, and understand Portuguese well — so I’m happy to support bilingual families! I’m currently looking for a full time job and occasional babysitting opportunities and love working with families who value kindness, communication, and trust. Looking forward to meeting you! 💛 Mirian
“Mirian was AMAZING! She filled in last minute to take care of my dog Aspen. She was very communicative and flexible. Highly recommend!”
Hello I'm Olivia! I am a child care provider, a mother, and currently pursuing a Master's Degree in Social Work at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. I have professional experience working with a wide range of age groups. I worked with infants and toddlers for 2 years for the Department of the Army Child and Youth Services. I am currently working with school-aged children as a social work intern at a MD public high school, and previously taught math and reading interventions in a MD public elementary school.
“Olivia was great with our 19 month old, she was punctual and did really well with making sure our daughter had a day full of fun activities. ”
My name is Kyra-Marie, and I’m a warm, creative, and responsible caregiver with over 7 years of experience working with children from infants to teens. I currently assist in the DC classrooms, helping elementary school students pre-k through 5th develop important skills through both learning and play. I’m certified in Pediatric First Aid and CPR, and I’m confident in caring for children with special needs, including ADHD, autism, asthma, anxiety, food allergies, OCD, tics, and visual and hearing impairments. I love engaging kids through crafts, drawing, reading, games, and hands-on activities. I also enjoy baking with children when parents are comfortable with it, as it’s a fun way for them to be creative while learning practical skills. I’m happy to help with cooking, light chores, and homework. I’m also comfortable with bedtime routines and enjoy taking children out for walks to the park, museums, libraries, or simply getting some fresh air and exploring. If you’re looking for a dependable, empathetic sitter who treats children with care and respect, I’d love to connect.

Hi everyone! My name is Britney and I’m a junior political science major at Howard University looking to babysit afterschool or during the weekends. I have over 10 years of experience with childcare and can provide references if needed. My schedule is pretty flexible because all my classes are in the morning and I plenty of free time during the weekend. I love engaging children in arts and crafts, reading stories together, and baking treats, making every moment a chance for learning and laughter. I can also assist with homework. Please message me if you have any questions or interested in having me as a sitter 🧸

"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!"
