Ireland is a wonderful caregiver. She has been our babysitter for almost a year and we couldn't be happier with her. She's communicative, respectful, nurturing and genuinely adores our daughter. She's become a close friend of the family and we're not sure what we'd do without her!

Elise has been our go-to babysitter for our two boys - 2 and 4 - for two years now. She handles the boys very well, and they end up behaving much better with her than with us! She is very punctual, and has no problem staying late (which often happens). She's great!

Lydia has helped our family twice with back up care. She had very little notice and was extremely puntual. Lydia also meshed well with my 13 year old and 1 year old . She got my little one to stick to his sleep schedule so that was impressive! Thank you Lydia !!!

Isabelle was great with my toddler. She was always early when arriving and flexible with my schedule when I needed her. My son felt very comfortable around her from the very first time they met. 10/10

Hi my names Felisha, I'm 32 years old, and I have a lot of experience with children. I have three younger sisters and they are 17, 20 and 23. I babysit for families for special occasions and I am open to set days and times as well. I've been a nanny for different families from all age ranges. I've also been a nanny for children older than 13 years old as a big sister role model. I'm responsible, fun, active and outgoing. I love being active, doing crafts, games, reading, dress up/pretend and outdoor activities. I love animals and I'm comfortable with all types and sizes. I use to volunteer at Jug Bay Wetlands as a naturalist; leading school-aged children on educational adventures, Chesapeake Children's Museum And at the Baltimore Maryland Zoo as an animal contact aid for the public interactions with the animals. I love to cook/bake stuff so meal prep will be no problem and I'm CPR certified. I have high emotional intelligence and wisdom that makes me a great for people with sensitivities and special needs. I also have food allergies so I'm very careful and mindful about others allergies. P.S My Myer Briggs personality type in ENFJ If you think I'd make a good fit for your family please contact me. Thank You, Felisha

Felisha interviewed for our nanny position in Feb 2014. She did a fantastic job. She was very articulate and engaging. Unfortunately, she had already accepted another position closer to her home by the time we offered her the job. She has babysat for us and was a temporary nanny for us for two weeks while she waited for her permanent job to start. Felisha is a very lively and fun young lady. She was great with the kids and my 90-year old mother. She has a great deal of initiative. She cleaned out the refrigerator, organized the girls’ rooms, and took my mother shopping, all without being asked. We strongly recommend her.

Hi, My Name is Bernadette and I'm 48 years old. I am a mother of 4 kids (3 girls and a son) and a grandma of 3 cute grandsons. I have been a nanny/babysitter for over 20 years, caring for infants to school-aged kids. Besides the experience I have with my own kids, I've worked for a number of amazing and loving families. I love playing arts and crafts, reading books and of course the never-ending world of PRETEND! I love to go to the park/playground, library and occasional pool visits when weather permits. I would love to meet you and your family and make this a great experience for both of us. Thank you for your time and Goodluck!

We were incredibly fortunate to have Bernadette care for our children from 2015 to 2021, and I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She became so much more than a nanny to our family. She was a trusted partner, a role model for our children, and an irreplaceable source of support for my husband and me. From the very beginning, she treated our children with genuine love, patience, and care. Every day she found creative, engaging, and fun activities that kept them learning, exploring, and excited. As they grew older and started school, she seamlessly transitioned into helping with homework, encouraging good habits, and supporting their education in such a positive and nurturing way. Beyond caring for the children, she always kept our home incredibly organized and tidy, which made our busy lives feel manageable and calm. She consistently went above and beyond in ways both big and small, often anticipating our family’s needs before we even had to ask. Most importantly, our children absolutely adore her. Even now, years later, they still talk about how amazing she was and continue to keep in touch with her. Which speaks volumes about the lasting impact she had on their lives. The love, guidance, and stability she provided during such important years of their childhood is something we will forever be grateful for. Any family would be beyond lucky to have her. She is dependable, thoughtful, hardworking, trustworthy, and truly exceptional at what she does. I can recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation.

I've always had a passion for little ones. On the weekends I am usually volunteering at my local cafe nursery, or just spending time with my little sister. I have previously taken the American Red Cross babysitting course, and I am also CPR certified. I have extensive experience in childcare, as I have worked in numerous daycares, and have also worked as a teachers aide at a private school.
