Hi Families! I’m Daisia and my background in Child Development & Family Studies, paired with my hands-on experience with children of all ages-from infants to adolescents-has shaped a genuine love for what I do. I’ve worked with multiples, including twins, and truly enjoy creating a supportive, engaging environment for children to grow and thrive. It would be a pleasure to join your family and team.

Daisia was great! Prompt, communicative, caring, and easygoing. My 2yo daughter got along with her instantly.

Booked by 59 families in Fort Washington, MD

Mature and trustworthy babysitter. CPR and First Aid certified, consistently received positive feedback from parents. I have enjoyed working with newborns up 10 years old. I'm looking for a new family to support in caring for their children. I'm a mother of 2 amazing teenagers they are 18 and 24. I garden during my time off, seeing the blooms is very rewarding. This is a reference from Mrs. Stacei bass Marisol has provided care on a regular basis for my 15 month son since he was 8 weeks old. She's incredibly caring and helpful. Marisol spends a lot of time outside with him and keeps his active when indoors. She does not use her phone other than pictures while watching him and is always responsive to my check-in text messages.

On time, engaging and very attentive with our three busy boys.

I absolutely love working with children! I have been babysitting for six years now and have worked with all ages. I am more than willing to keep them entertained, especially when screens are off limits. I love anything creative, and I am also good at cooking if the little ones need a meal. I also love pets and have a dog of my own.
