Hi families, my name is Aysha and I am a college graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography. I am located in Upper Marlboro, MD and I am CPR certified. From infants to toddlers and preteens, I have worked with multiple families at an home daycare center for six years. In addition to babysitting/nannying for various families since last year. My responsibilities have included cooking meals, creating fun arts & crafts, picking up and dropping off to school, tutoring and much more. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I hope to be a reliable and supportive extra set of hands, and a positive addition to your family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi, my name is Myka! I’ve always had a passion caring for children ever since I could remember. I’ve gained several years of childcare experience, caring for ages newborn to school-age in various settings such as daycare, in-home nanny and being a school nurse. Being a mother myself has also given me further knowledge and experience in caring for newborns to school-age.

“Myka is wonderful to work with! She is reliable, punctual and most importantly she is so kind and loving with our two energetic boys and we came back to two very happy kids who asked when she could come back again. ”

Dear Parents: I am seeking a childcare position on an occasional basis. I'm 38 years of age, living in the Bowie, MD area but I also travel throughout the DC area regularly. I have over 15 years of prior experience in Early Childhood Education in licensed preschool centers and training in Early Childhood courses. I studied techniques in safety, guidance, health, and positive sense of self while promoting social, mental, and physical growth in children. I report progress and build relationships with children, parents, or staff while continually displaying professional conduct. I have experience with children of all ages. I look forward to greeting the children and parents with a genuine welcome as well as giving the parents a sense of comfort when their child is in my care. Thank you.
