Hi families, I’m Nosi pronounced Nosee. I am an extremely happy and loving individual who is passionate about helping others. With over 7 years of experience, I have worked as both an Au Pair and a full- time nanny, providing exceptional care to children ranging from 4 weeks to 14 years old. As a vaccinated nanny, I am committed to ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care. I truly enjoy working with children, supporting their growth.I love engaging in activities such as outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, baking, and reading, always striving to make each day memorable and enjoyable for the kids I care for. Having had the privilege of becoming a part of many families' lives, childcare is truly one of my greatest passions. Outside of work I enjoy reading, yoga, exploring new dining spots, sightseeing, and visiting places with waterfalls and beaches.
“Nosipho was on time, warm, and immediately connected with my kid by getting down to his level. Very easy-going and my son was very comfortable with her. Would definitely recommend!”
Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, and I am dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on the families I support. With three years of experience, I provide reliable, high-quality care for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. My approach is calm and patient, ensuring your child feels secure while I comfortably enforce your household rules. I love keeping children active through outdoor sports, but I am equally happy engaging them with educational games, puzzles, and board games. I am comfortable with pets and always follow your preferred communication method to keep you updated on your child's day. I hold CPR training and First Aid certifications to ensure a safe environment at all times. I look forward to the opportunity to become a trusted, steady presence in your family's life.
Hello! My name is Paula, and I bring over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, along with an educational background in Child Development. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow. I also had the wonderful opportunity to spend two years as an au pair caring for infant twin boys. That experience deepened my love for early childhood care and taught me the importance of patience, consistency, routine, and creativity during a child’s early development. I’m energetic, reliable, caring, and always happy to jump into activities that encourage both learning and fun. In my free time, I enjoy painting, practicing yoga, and reading, all things I love incorporating into my time with children. Whether we’re getting creative with arts and crafts, staying active, or winding down with a good storybook, I strive to make each day engaging and meaningful. My most recent experience as a caregiver was with a lovely family with 5-year-old twin girls. This experience was incredibly special to me, and those two girls definitely won my heart! We created so many wonderful memories together, from playing and doing arts and crafts to working on homework and learning together. Being part of their daily lives and watching their personalities and creativity grow was truly a beautiful and rewarding experience. And I have to add. I absolutely love animals! I currently have a cat named Onyx, so I’m very comfortable working with families who have pets as well. 🐾 I’m excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and positive energy to a new family, and I look forward to supporting your children’s growth, happiness, and well-being.
“Paula was our nanny for a year and she was trustworthy, reliable and very loving towards our kids. She has varied skillsets and helped my kids develop their interests in arts and crafts. I would recommend Paula to anyone who is seeking a warm, kind, responsible and resourceful caregiver and I am grateful we were able to find her.”
I am a part-time college student at the University of Maryland in College Park. I have years of experience working with children as well as engaging with them outside of a professional setting. I have 2 young nieces (10 and 8) whom I often babysit, drive to and from activities, and keep busy at home while my brother is working. My prior babysitting experience also includes neighbors, children of friends and family, and other relatives. I grew up a dancer so as soon as I became old enough, I was student teaching classes for pre-schoolers and eventually taught some classes on my own. I have worked individually and in groups with ages 3-16. I can confidently say I know how to best meet the needs of all ages while maintaining a fun and playful environment.
“Kate started babysitting my son Connor when he was roughly 2 (he’s 6 now) and she is his favorite person. Kate was a student of mine at the dance studio from the time she was 7 or 8, and I watched her grow into an extremely responsible, confident, reliable woman for the last 15 years. I highly recommend Kate as a babysitter, and look forward to the times she is visiting her parents so she can watch my son!”
My name is Cassia. I have a strong background in education and childcare, with experience working as a teacher in Mexico, Singapore, and the United States. I have worked with children from age 2 through middle school. I am also a mother of two, so I bring both professional and personal experience. I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I am responsible, patient, warm, organized, and caring, and I enjoy creating a safe, positive environment where children feel supported. I can also help with pets and provide loving, reliable care for them. I am comfortable supporting elderly adults with kindness, patience, companionship, and respect, always making sure they feel valued and cared for.
