Booked by 28 families in Fort Howard, MD

Hello parents! My name is Annie- a native of the D.C. area, I live in Baltimore, have family in Silver Spring, and commute to NW D.C. so I’m happy to pick up jobs anywhere in the area! What I bring to the table: •Nearly 20 years of experience with childcare and household management for preschool-to-high school aged kids and families. I was with my previous family for 14 years and have been with my current family since 2019. •Intuitive and fast thinking- I am able to quickly troubleshoot situations and navigate decisions without handholding. Fixing problems before they become problems. •Almost spotless driving record (one camera ticket in the last few years), plus a squeaky clean criminal record. I am very comfortable driving, navigating rush hour, parallel parking, etc. I have my own transportation. •Funny, down to earth, and strong in my convictions- would like to work with a family on the same wavelength. •I love to cook and am familiar with many different cuisines. Comfortable in kosher, vegetarian/vegan, and gluten-free/allergy kitchens. •Happy to work with families and kids of all types! LGBTQ+, polyam, gnc, families and kids welcome. The downsides: •I am only available for occasional or as-needed work. I currently work part-time with a rolling schedule so I have decent availability but cannot commit to a set schedule. •I am a night owl and prefer to work afternoons and evenings. Late nights are not a problem. •Funny, down to earth, and strong in my convictions- so I’m unfortunately not willing to work with folks whose values don’t match my own :) When not corralling kids, I am in the garden (or planning next year’s garden), elbow deep in dyeing yarn, at my weaving loom with a podcast on, or watching local music. Catch me at your local maker’s market 🧶 Hope to her from you soon!

“Arrived on time. Our toddler immediately enjoyed playing with Annie. Great experience for parents and child.”

I am a college student majoring in Elementary education. My work experience includes daycare teacher for the past year and a half, specifically a MD state certified Toddler teacher. Prior to work, my experience has been babysitting my families and friends’ families children! A few traits about me is that I have grown up to love teaching, and working with children. I love music, bright colors, and turtles. My dream career has always been becoming a teacher. I have always enjoyed seeing the smiles from children when they’re having fun, or excited to learn. I will always make the environment safe so all children can feel welcomed and seen.
