Booked by 1 family in Glenwood, MD

I’m a thoughtful, empathetic person with a deep appreciation for nurturing and care. Outside of my professional career, I’ve always had a natural fondness for children and families. I believe that caring for someone’s home or loved ones isn’t just a “job”; it’s a responsibility rooted in respect, trust, and understanding.

“Nadia is such an amazing and calm person. My children love her and always look forward to seeing her. She involves the children in different play activities with minimal to no screen time at all. We trust her with the kids and know that they’re in good hands. We are glad to have met her!”

Hello, my name is Isabel. I have worked with children for 3 going on 4 years. Currently, I work at a child care center . I have experience with multiple children at a time. I have fun, creative activities for the children so they're not in front of the TV. I love children and enjoy watching them play and learn new things. I always make sure that the children are comfortable in their environment. I'm available for date nights, an the occasional work days. I have a car and a clean driving record. Since I do work at a daycare I have a background check. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile , I hope I'll hear from you.

"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!"
