With all my love, I cannot imagine life without being able to care for our wonderful children. Childcare is my passion, seeing the potential of our children and harnessing it at an early age is vital for their growth and development.   As a parent of three myself, I understand the importance of having a safe environment for our children to learn, love, and play. I am well credentialed; my degree is in English and Elementary Education, I am also certified in CPR and First Aid. I have a history of providing over 20 years of care for children and have references. Best Regards, Teicha

Hi I’m Nomi, I am a dedicated, compassionate, and experienced nanny with over six years of extensive childcare experience caring for children from newborns to school-aged kids. Throughout my career, I have created safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can learn, grow, and thrive while giving parents peace of mind. My experience includes infant care, bottle feeding, diaper changes, sleep routines, potty training, school drop-offs and pickups, homework assistance, meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, organizing educational and creative activities, and maintaining consistent daily schedules. I believe in encouraging children’s emotional, social, and developmental growth through patience, positive reinforcement, and age-appropriate play. I pride myself on being dependable, trustworthy, organized, and adaptable to each family’s unique needs and parenting style. Building lasting relationships with both children and parents is one of the most rewarding aspects of my work, and I strive to become a reliable and supportive presence in every household I join. My goal is always to provide exceptional care while fostering a loving, structured, and positive environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Ebony $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Ebony! I am offering care for both children and pets. I'm a Native Washingtonian with much experience in childcare. Over the course of 19 years on and off, I have provided care for several families via an agency, and independently for a non-profit organization, events, friends, and family (as the cool auntie). I ran an afterschool program at a local high school during my AmeriCorps term, providing my students a safe environment for enrichment and growth. My late father worked as a teacher's aide at a DC middle school and would take me to work with him. Helping his students was a complex job and I was trusted with it! Having the chance to help children with special needs as a teen taught me how quality care could help a child thrive. That experienced sparked my interest in childcare. Children of all ages deserve safety and attentive care. I bring a positive attitude, creativity, kindness, nurturing, and patience to care I give others. My talents include making still-life drawings with oil pastels. Also, I love animals and have enjoyed pet sitting for friends here and there. Though I am allergic to cats, I adore them and will have my own Zyrtec ready to go for those biscuits. I am open to walking and playing with your animals, no matter the size. I spend my days working part time, volunteering, getting lost in a coloring book, and studying.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
