Hi Baltimore neighbors! My name is Astrid, and I'm a responsible and energetic careworker invested in providing fun and culturally informed care. I am adaptable to your unique family needs and want to create a fun and safe environment for your family. I'm a recent master of social work graduate and aspiring birthworker with experience caring for children, teens, and adults in a mental health capacity. I also have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children, older adults and pets. I was raised by my grandmother who ran a small at-home daycare which sparked my passion for supporting healthy family ecosystems. Nowadays, I'm an auntie to a toddler and a cat mom to 2 rambunctious kittens. I'm seeking part-time, one-time, and occasional work. Please message me with your questions and inquiries. Let's see if we'd be a good fit!

“Great initial phone interview! Very professional and well-spoken. She took the time to discuss my family's needs and answered all of my questions thoroughly. She asked great questions about the kids routine and shared her background. We discussed basic expectations, CPR, scheduling availability, and logistics, though we would want to do an in-person meeting before booking long-term. Communication was seamless and easy, felt completely comfortable right away. Very excited and looking forward to moving forward!”

Booked by 2 families in Arbutus, MD

Hi, I’m Cia! I come from a big, loving family, so caring for kids has always been a part of my life. I’ve been helping take care of my nieces and nephews since I was about eight years old, and over the years, it’s become something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve also volunteered at churches to watch over children during services and events, which helped me learn how to create a safe, fun, and trusting environment for kids of all ages. I take pride in making sure every child I care for feels seen, valued, and cared for. My goal is to be someone kids can trust, look up to, and feel comfortable around while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands.

“Tycia is timely, communicative, and respectful. She is kind and patient with the kids. My family enjoys working with her.”
