Hi there, my name is Nayelys! I am a current masters student at Georgetown University and I am looking for a family that I can work with in shaping young little minds. I have about 5 years of experience overall working with kids between newborn age and 7 years old. I grew up with cats and have a dog back home so I am more than willing to be around and even care for your furry friends. I can also help with homework time and I am fluent in both Spanish and English. I am originally from Florida, but I will be residing in DC for at least the next two years. I am excited to work alongside you in helping your children grow!

Booked by 19 families in Riverdale, MD

Hello! My name is Marley, and I am an experienced Family Assistant and Household Manager with over seven years of experience supporting busy families and managing the day-to-day operations of private households. While my career began in childcare, my work has evolved into comprehensive household support. I help families stay organized and efficient through calendar management, scheduling appointments, coordinating vendors and service providers, running errands, grocery shopping, meal preparation, travel support, household organization, inventory management, pet care, and special projects. I currently support families in the Washington, DC area and have experience working alongside housekeepers, tutors, therapists, and other household professionals to ensure daily operations run smoothly. I pride myself on being proactive, dependable, and resourceful, with the ability to anticipate needs and solve problems before they become stressful. My childcare background remains one of my greatest strengths. Having worked with children ranging from infancy through the teen years, including neurodivergent children, I understand the importance of flexibility, patience, discretion, and clear communication. While my primary focus is household management and family support, I am comfortable providing occasional childcare when needed. Families describe me as organized, warm, trustworthy, and highly adaptable. I am fluent in Spanish, comfortable working independently, and committed to creating systems that help households run efficiently. I am currently available for daytime Family Assistant, Household Manager, and Estate Support roles, including Mondays during business hours. References are available upon request. I look forward to connecting and learning how I can support your household.

"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)."
