Hi Families! My name is Maeve, and I am a first-year law student in DC. Prior to law school, I worked as an English teacher and have always enjoyed spending time with kids. I’ve taught at the high school level and regularly volunteered with middle and lower school students. I have experience caring for children of various ages. Throughout college, I babysat regularly for a family with a 1-year-old, a 5-year-old, and a dog. I am available Friday through Sunday evenings, with additional flexibility depending on my class schedule. I would love to find a family to assist on a regular basis—whether for weekend date nights, occasional coverage while you work or evening help. I am responsible, dependable, and attentive. In my free time, I enjoy checking out estate sales, testing new recipes and running. I am also able to provide references upon request.

20 plus years experience working in the childcare industry. My passion is partnering with parents to help develop the next generation. I believe childhood should be about experiences that are not only fun but also developmental. I love crafts, being creative, reading and learning about different cultures. I have worked in preschools, learning centers, as a nanny, household manager, and even general manager of an indoor children's playground before COVID. I worked as a full time nanny during COVID. My post COVID experience has been as a Behavior Technician working with children between the ages of 2 - 11, and as a head start preschool teacher. I am dual CDA certified (infant/toddler & Preschool) and hold CPR/First Aid/AED certification.
Hi! My name’s Elizabeth and I recently graduated from AU. I have been babysitting since I was 13 and have experience with kids of all ages! I also have worked as a math tutor for middle and high school students. I love animals and am happy to work in a household with pets! I am able to work as a household assistant as well with grocery shopping, cleaning, and cooking.
“Elizabeth was incredibly warm and wonderful with our daughter. Would highly recommend her!”

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
