Reyna 3 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Glenn Dale, MD

Hi! My name is Reyna. I am a paralegal by profession and I am fluent in both English and Spanish. My experience with childcare began through helping care for my younger siblings and children of friends and family over several years, starting with babies as small as three months. This experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. In addition, I am very active and enjoy hands on activities and being outdoors. I do work full time during the day so my availability is mostly evenings and weekends.

“Reyna was awesome with our two boys ages 4 and 2! They got to practice their Spanish and read books together. Our kids really liked her and we look forward to working with her again.”

Maimounat $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Maimounat, but please feel free to call me Jackie! I am proudly graduated from the Teacher Academy of Maryland, a rigorous high school program that equipped me with real classroom experience, lesson planning skills, and a genuine passion for nurturing young minds. Beyond my credentials, I bring warmth, patience, and a natural ability to connect with children of all ages — creating a fun, structured, and loving environment wherever I go. I am responsible, dependable, and deeply compassionate, always going above and beyond to make sure both children and families feel supported. In addition to childcare, I am happy to assist with a range of household services including light housekeeping, meal preparation for children, homework help, laundry, tidying up common areas, and helping maintain a smooth and organized home while parents are away. Whether you're looking for after-school care, full-time support, or a helping hand around the house, I am ready to show up with a smile and give your family my very best!

Olivia $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Olivia. I'm offering child care, senior care, and household help. Being an older sister, I've naturally taken on a caretaking role. Growing up, my sister and I played "school," where I was always the teacher. It was a little glimpse into how much I love helping kids learn and grow. At 16, I became a summer camp counselor for kids ages 6-13, and through college I babysat two children for a family friend. I've also volunteered in a kindergarten classroom teaching an "Hour of Code." My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, activities, and appointments, plus cooking meals and snacks. What I love most is the whimsy, curiosity, and joy of children. I bring patience, responsibility, and lots of warmth to every family. During college, I also worked in a nursing home, where I helped direct activities and built warm connections with the seniors. I'm comfortable with senior care and happy to cook or drive to appointments. I truly value being someone parents can trust and families feel safe with.

Nana $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nana, and I'm 18 years old. I'm a freshman at Bowie State University majoring in Nursing. Caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I have three younger siblings, and I've been helping raise and babysit them since they were born. Being responsible for them taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for children of different ages. That experience inspired me to pursue a career in nursing and made me realize how much I enjoy helping families. I'm experienced with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, reading, games, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I'm also happy to prepare simple meals, help with bedtime routines, light housekeeping, laundry, and keeping play areas clean and organized. Families can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring. I understand the importance of creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I'm excited to help families by providing reliable childcare while building meaningful relationships with both parents and their children.
