Reyna 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Mount Rainier, MD

Hi! My name is Reyna. I am a paralegal by profession, which has helped me develop strong organizational skills, attention to detail, patience, and a strong sense of responsibility. I am also fluent in both English and Spanish. My experience with childcare began through being an older sister and helping care for my younger siblings/children of friends and family over several years. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. 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.

Punctual, warm and professional. Great with our kids!

Mari 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Mount Rainier, MD

Hello! My name is Mari and I am graduating from American University this May. I am 22 years old and am originally from York, PA but live full-time in D.C. I currently work for an environmental non-profit as an intern, and am looking for summer opportunities with families here in the DMV. I have an extensive history of service-oriented positions. I formally used a nannying app called QuadJobs in which I booked and have working relationships with multiple families (unfortunately the app has since shut down). I am the oldest sister in my household as well as having an older brother, so I am aware of sibling relationships and responsibility. I am diligent and committed, having worked for Starbucks for 3 years while being a full-time student with multiple other jobs and commitments. I also am an equestrian-- I have extensive history with horses and other animals, making me very capable of caring for any sort of family pet! I have my own car here, meaning I am flexible with travel as well as quick with transportation needs. After my graduation in May, I plan on staying within the District to apply to jobs in the environmental sector before attending graduate school after a year or so. Happy to meet you!

Mari was punctual, professional, conscientious, and our girls loved her. We can't wait to have her back!

"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!"
