Hi! My name is Mincie. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’ve worked in a licensed daycare, provided one-on-one tutoring, and served as a summer camp counselor, giving me strong skills in safety, engagement, and age-appropriate activities. Parents describe me as patient, dependable, and calm, even in busy or high-energy situations. I love creating fun, screen-free activities, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, and keeping routines consistent. I always prioritize communication and safety, and I treat every child with kindness and respect. I’m available for evenings, weekends, and occasional last-minute care. I would love to support your family — please feel free to reach out with any questions!
“I highly recommend Mincie for any family looking for someone dependable and professional. She is responsible, punctual, and communicates clearly, which made it easy to trust her with our child. She has a calm, patient approach and handled daily routines, meals, and activities with confidence. She was attentive, safety-focused, and genuinely engaged with our child at all times. We always felt comfortable knowing our child was in capable hands, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to other families.”
Hello! My name is Kelynn, and I’m currently a senior Computer Science major at Howard University. I am offering child care, tutoring, pet care, and household services. I’ve been caring for children since high school, including babysitting during summers, teaching Sunday school, and working in my church’s nursery. I also have a younger brother who is ten years my junior, which gave me daily, hands-on childcare experience. I’ve worked with children of all ages and love engaging them with fun, creative activities. My background as a dancer has taught me how to balance imagination, fun, and discipline. I’m also strong in academics, especially math, and enjoy helping with homework and tutoring. I graduated high school with a 4.2 GPA and currently maintain a 3.9 at Howard. I have my own reliable transportation and am happy to help with drop-offs/pickups. In addition to childcare, I am experienced with pets; I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and am very comfortable with pet care (walking, feeding, playing, etc.).
“Thank you! ”

“I got stuck in DC because of flight cancellations and ending up with my 3 year old daughter and prep meeting with clients for an important next day meeting. Mary Beth arrived at the hotel promptly (in advance) and with only a request that afternoon. My daughter loved her. Indeed, she was able to do things with Patina that are hard for me -- get her to draw, tell stories, get her PJs on, and get into bed on time. Terrific.”
