We’ve been very happy with Iqra as our after-school sitter for our 5-year-old son. She’s dependable, always arrives on time, and communicates clearly and promptly with us. What we appreciate most is how genuinely engaged she is with our son—she plays with him, encourages his imagination, and keeps him happily active after a long day of school. He looks forward to seeing her, which says a lot! We feel confident and comfortable knowing he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend.

Rosanna is a dream. She was our nanny for our two little ones for the last 3 years. She started with us when our oldest was 3 months old and was there when we had our 2nd baby. Rosanna has all the qualities you could hope for in a caregiver: gentle, patient, firm when needed, and deeply understanding of the delicate balance it takes to raise children. What stood out the most was how easy she was to work with. As first-time parents, navigating the challenges of raising children can be overwhelming but Rosanna consistently provided us with unwavering support. She listened carefully and adapted to our parenting style, and gave us the space to figure things out on our own without judgement. Her presence was a comfort and relief and her guidance was always encouraging. When we moved, her commute increased by nearly an extra hour each way. Despite this added challenge, she graciously continued working with us for 3 additional months to help transition our youngest before daycare began. Her dedication and commitment to our family during this time speaks volume about her character and work ethic. We are so grateful for the love, care, and professionalism she brought to her role. She has made an indelible mark on our family and we will always cherish the time she spent with us. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a nanny who is not only skilled and reliable but also kind-hearted and understanding.

Hi & Welcome to my profile! My name is Irene and I'm 37 years old. I have worked with children of all ages for about 19 years now. I also have several references. I truly enjoy working with kids and getting to know families. I'm also understanding of any specific rules or preferences parents or children have when they are with a babysitter. I also have lots of experience with families of different cultural backgrounds and life situations. I also have my own personal experience as well as professional experience within the adoption and foster care field. I have also worked with children with special needs before. I also prefer stable positions that match with my availability although I'm open to last minute positions as long as I'm available. I'm open to any questions and I hope to continue to meet families and be of help to them!

Greetings! I 'm a child lover whose two daughters are grown and am not yet a grandmother (hope springs eternal!). I spent 17 years in outside sales and eventually found there wasn't much need for a middle-aged pharmaceutical rep. I found a position as night nanny which turned into being a day nanny and never looked back. I find it greatly rewarding to being able to spend my time making children smile and teaching them the skills they'll need to be successful in life. In the process, I've met many, many wonderful parents who give me hope for the future. And of course, I have the gift of knowing that I enhanced lives for a time. I'm not a spring chicken, but as one of my employers put it when a co-worker posited to her "why did you hire someone older?" wisely responded "At least I know she won't be on the phone all day." The only texts that occur when I'm with your children are the ones the parent of the moment sends me. The children I care for know they are loved and cherished. I might be a little stricter than you, but I try to make children understand that, in the words of the old Ford TV ads, "Safety is job ONE." Children are smart and they get it! I'm active outdoors playing with your children, I can pitch a baseball pretty well (my hitting skills are better, if you're training a pitcher) and I love to kick the soccer ball around. One of my kids even told me I was a good tennis player (in all honesty, he hadn't played much tennis). I love to take your children to the playground, , park, library, pool, or wherever you like. The mother of my current family had planned on keeping me until Fall of 2j022. Unfortunately, her job has become increasingly difficult and she has decided to stay home for a spell with her very special 2-year old. I'm currently looking for a full-time or nearly full-time position. However, if your needs are for part-time, I am always interested in patching more than one job together if I find the right families . Please call any day/night before 10:00 p.m.

Hi! I’m Olivia, a freshman at Morgan State University in Baltimore Maryland, originally from California I will be returning to california May 14th , with four years of paid childcare experience. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and supportive environment. I’m currently in school to become a nurse, and I would love to be a labor and delivery nurse. I’ve worked as a part-time cooking teacher for children in pre-K through sixth grade, where I led creative, hands-on classes that helped me develop strong skills in keeping kids engaged, happy, and learning. In addition to my paid experience, I’ve had extensive informal experience caring for my 8-year-old younger brother and several younger cousins, so I’m very comfortable working with children of different ages and personalities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, patient, and always bring a positive attitude. Whether it’s crafts, playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I’m ready to jump in and help make your day a little easier!

Mrs. Avis is wonderful. After a bad experience with a sitter I hired here she gave me hope that there are some good, caring, responsible caregivers out there. My 8 month old took to her very well. We will definitely be keeping her on speed dial.

Lakisha B.
From the moment she came for the interview, I could tell she genuinely cared about children. She was so warm, professional, and easy to talk to. What stood out the most was her willingness to jump right in and offer to start that same night, which truly meant a lot to our family. She stayed with my children, treated them with kindness, patience, and care, and made them feel comfortable almost immediately. My kids responded so well to her, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She went above and beyond, not just as a babysitter, but as someone who truly showed compassion and reliability when we needed it most. I would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable.
