I love the ages of infant to 5 years old and hope to one day return to caring for and establishing a full time early childhood business. My career since my early 20s has been in education. I worked for 3+ years in Early Childhood Education and later moved to middle school teacher. In addition, I raised two children of my own who are currently in their late teens. I'm currently working as an administrator in the central office of DC Public Schools and am seeking part-time employment as a nanny, babysitter, house sitter, pet sitter, and more. Whatever the family which is the right fit may need.
Hi there! I'm Madison and live in Northwest DC. I went to the University of Richmond and have spent the last 5 years working in the nonprofit space. I'm currently career pivoting to apply to school for occupational therapy, and I have a flexible schedule. I have experience babysitting, working as a companion for senior citizens, and years working as a camp counselor. I'm bilingual, energetic, and also happy to provide tutoring or homework help. I also love animals, happy to dog walk / dog sit as well and am comfortable with cats (have one at home😊)
Hi !!! My name is Samara !! I am currently a student at the ILLUSTRIOUS Howard University double majoring in Education and Political Science. I am offering tutoring, childcare, and household assistance. I love kids. I grew up with 5 siblings (me being the oldest) which got me into babysitting. I have been taking care of children since I was 14 years old and enjoy every minute of it! My family has also ran a cleaning business over the years so I completely qualified to help with any household needs. Whether it’s cleaning, cooking, or small errands.
I have many years of experience babysitting and caring for children of all ages. I've worked as a babysitter throughout high school and worked part-time as a daycare teaching assistant during college. I'm very enthusiastic, kind and reliable. I can help with light housekeeping.
Hey there! My name is Jalen but everyone calls me Jaee! I am originally from Brooklyn, NY. I went to Valdosta State University for my Bachelors in Communications and PR. Afterwards, I attended University of Maryland where I obtained my Masters of Business Adminstration. I have worked within the Mental Health field as the Outreach Director, Quality Assurance, and worked one on one with children's mental health by conducting assessments and also a case manager for children ranging from the ages of 2-18. I have also been a caregiver for seniors, and children, and pets. Sometimes all at the same time under one roof! I currently work as an elementary teacher. Working hand and hand with children in our special education realm of the school. Specifically with 1st and 4th grade. However, I check in on all grade levels. I enjoy working with kids they keep me young! I also believe that it is so important to pour into children as they are our future! I look forward to meeting you and your lovely children and family! Best, Jaee!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
