Bonjour! I’m a proud St. Lucian with a big heart and a passion for babysitting that blossomed when I was just 11 years old. Growing up, I helped raise my three younger siblings, who were born more than a decade after me. Those early experiences taught me patience, empathy, and how to guide little ones through every stage. From first steps to singing/sporty personalities. Watching them grow into their own identities lit a fire in me to support other children in the same way. Over the years, I’ve continued to babysit younger cousins and family friends, giving me hands-on experience with kids of various ages whenever I have time with my technical wiritng positon. I naturally gravitate toward creating a nurturing, positive environment where children feel safe, heard, and empowered. I'm especially proud of teaching manners in fun, memorable ways, and I bring calm energy and warm encouragement to every interaction. Whether we’re playing games, learning something new, or just having silly moments, I’m there with love, laughter, and genuine care.

Kayla watched my children (the youngest of whom was three months old). She was punctual, responsive and flexible. She quickly took control and engaged with our very active toddlers. I highly recommend her and would use her services again!

Hi! I’m Iyana 😊 I’m a graduate student at Bowie State University with over 5 years of experience caring for children ages 4 months to 12 years. I’ve worked with infants through elementary-aged kids and also spent a year and a half teaching 8th grade, including supporting students with ADHD, dyslexia, and autism. I really enjoy babysitting because every child is different, and I love getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and routines. I’m comfortable with transportation, sleep training/bedtime routines, and I’m very pet-friendly. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are playing board games, karaoke, going on walks or hikes, and cooking together. I always aim to create a fun, safe, and relaxed environment for both kids and parents.

Hi my name is Dominiqué. I am a graduate of Penn's Graduate School of Education, with a Master's degree in Early Elementary Education. I currently am an educator in the DMV so my schedule may be limited. I have all my clearances. I have been CPR trained. I worked in my mother's daycare from the age of 9 to the age of 22. I have worked as an instructor at a summer program and have nine years of formal teaching experience, so I am comfortable with larger groups of children and I am able to connect with each individual child. I am comfortable and experienced working with children of all ages but my preference is to work with children 16 and under.

Dominique was on time, reliable, and did an excellent job watching our two kids (including our very emotional 4-year-old) while we were at a nearby wedding. We would definitely work with her again if ever back in the area!

Hi families! I’m Victoria, a BLS/CPR-certified nursing student currently earning my RN, with the goal of becoming a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. Nursing is my third degree—I also hold a B.S. in Biology and a Master’s in Public Health from Columbia University. I have 3 years of paid childcare experience and over 10 years of experience working with children in educational and community settings. My childcare experience includes working in a daycare, teaching 3rd-grade science, and tutoring children of different ages. I’ve always loved creating an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and excited to learn. I enjoy reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, educational games, science experiments, homework help, and finding creative, screen-free ways to have fun. While earning my master’s in New York City, I developed an even greater appreciation for child development and the importance of positive, supportive relationships during childhood. That experience helped inspire my decision to pursue pediatric nursing and dedicate my career to caring for children and families. As a sitter, I’m kind, patient, attentive, dependable, and safety-conscious. I’m comfortable balancing fun with routines and boundaries while making sure children feel heard, encouraged, and cared for. I’m also happy to provide tutoring or additional educational support when needed. I have reliable transportation and drive a newer Volvo XC40, which I chose with safety in mind. I also understand that every family’s schedule is different, so I offer flexible availability, including early mornings, daytime care, evenings, and late nights. Whether you need regular support, help around your work or school schedule, or a dependable sitter for date nights, I’d love to be someone your family can count on!

As a teenager and babysitter I knew I wanted to work with children but as a pediatric doctor, But once I took Child development classes and parenting it really opened my eyes to another interest and that was being a early childhood education teacher. taking these classes I learned a lot about a parent perspective and childcare teachers as well in certain situations also along with being a teacher studying the different methods and also hands on experience on writing lesson plans and actually interacting with the children. By my senior year I did an internship at a child care facility to experience how a center is ran and the interaction with the children and teachers. After I graduated I worked for Kindercare Learning Center over a year, Children Of America almost 3 years, and a privately owned daycare for over a year before I recently decided to help local families who need care for their children.
