Booked by 1 family in Rockville, 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!”

Camila $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Camila, and I’m a caring, responsible, and reliable childcare provider with experience working with children of different ages. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I have experience with school drop-offs and pick-ups, homework help, activities, playtime, and daily routines.

In addition to childcare, I offer household assistance, including laundry, meal preparation, light cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I’m also a confident and responsible driver. I’m dependable, organized, and easy to communicate with, and I’d be happy to support your family with childcare, Spanish lessons, or household services!

"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!"
