I’m a freshman college student majoring in Acting at Howard University, with 13 years of childcare experience, babysitting since I was 7. I’ve cared for kids of all ages—from newborns and infants to older children—and I genuinely enjoy connecting with each stage. I spent a lot of time with my baby brother and my cousin’s little one, taking care of bottles, diapers, naps, and more, while also keeping older kids engaged with games, homework help, and creative activities. I have studied Spanish from 2nd grade through 11th grade, so I am able to speak and understand it to a good extent. I’m a licensed lifeguard, so I’m comfortable supervising kids during water activities. I also have culinary and baking training from Hofstra and have been cooking since I was 7, which makes meal prep and fun kitchen activities easy and enjoyable. I studied fashion design for two years and currently serve as Costume Shop Manager and Lead Draper, which strengthened my leadership, organization, and multitasking skills. I love helping kids build confidence through creativity, storytelling, and hands-on projects. I’m adaptable to different personalities and age levels, and I always make safety, fun, and connection my top priorities. CPR certification is in process, and I’m happy to provide references or set up a call. If you’re looking for someone responsible, creative, and nurturing who can truly connect with kids and help them feel safe, engaged, and supported, I’d love to help your family.

I’m happy to provide a reference for Alaya. She worked for my family from 2021–2023, starting when my children were 4 and 8 years old. She was wonderful with them—very patient, attentive, and engaging. She regularly helped with homework, planned fun outdoor activities, and was great at keeping them active and entertained. Alaya also assisted around the house, including cooking and baking with the kids, light household tasks, and even helping with party planning. She was reliable, trustworthy, and proactive, and my children absolutely adored her. I would highly recommend her as a babysitter and household helper.

Hi I’m Sophia! I’m a grad student currently attending SBU to get my MBA! I just graduated in 2025 with a Bachelors of Science in Business and Psychology. I am American Red Cross CPR/AED/First Aid certified for Infants, Children, and Adults. I’ve had 5 years paid experience in childcare starting as a mother’s helper, to babysitter, to nanny. Over the past 5 years I’ve worked with several different families. I started working at my university’s child care Infant-Toddler Room in January 2022 in which I assist with taking care of 15 children ranging from 3 months to 3 years old! Through the daycare, I have acquired several different types of skills through mandated trainings, like allergy awareness and safe sleep. I have travel nanny experience with two different families caring for their infants (6mo and 8mo). I also have a handful of families that I occasionally babysit for! I'm very creative and passionate about art, I love to think out of the box and come up with new crafts and developmentally appropriate activities! I love letting the kids express their creativity through play, music, and art!

My name is Nicole. I am a dedicated, professional nanny with well over 10 years of experience providing exceptional care for children of all ages. I am currently a full time nanny to a one year old child whom I have cared for since she was a newborn, giving me extensive experience with infant routines, developmental milestones, and attentive, nurturing care. I have completed formal coursework in childcare and child development and hold current certifications in First Aid, CPR, and AED. Additionally, I have advanced childcare training and water safety certification, allowing me to maintain the highest standards of safety while supporting each child’s emotional, physical, and developmental growth. As I prepare to purchase a home in Washington DC, I am seeking an opportunity to continue working with a family that values professionalism, trust, and high quality care. I pride myself on being reliable, and deeply invested in the well being of the children entrusted to me.

We hired Nicole in March ‘25 and she currently still Nannie’s for us. She was a gem we stumbled on! We were so lucky to find her. She started taking care of our babygirl at 3 months and now she’s a toddler. Nicole is compassionate, caring, nurturing and amazing with our little girl. She has read to her from day one and has worked with us for her to achieve her milestones; from helping us to teach her to roll, to tummy time, to her drinking from an open and straw cup, Nicole has helped us without crossing boundaries. She is also in tune with our girl and learned her cues which has been helpful for our babygirl too. She’s respected our schedule and followed it as well, even with the changes we make. Nicole is not just a typical nanny, she truly cares for the intellectual development of a child and we have benefitted greatly from it. I highly recommend her. I always love the updates throughout the day and the final check in when I come home. I highly recommend her!
