Hello, I’m Gabi, I was an au pair for four years (exchange program: international nanny live in). For two years I cared for a 18 month old and 5 year old boys. After my au pair term was over, I went back to Brazil and worked as an English teacher, my students were better 6 and 15 years old. In 2024 I came back to the US with a second au pair term, I cared for a 18 month old, 3 and 5 year old. I also did full time volunteer work in a day care, watching babies between 6 and 18 months. I have a special relationship with childhood and I believe is a privilege to be part of such magical and fundamental years. Something you should know about me is that I have a great relationship with all the families I’ve worked with and my host was the officiant for my wedding! Please, let me know if you have any questions.

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I'm a longtime early childhood educator and new mom looking to connect with a local family seeking a nurturing, Montessori-inspired environment for their little one. I have 10+ years of professional experience working with young children, primarily in the Loudoun County area. Throughout my career, l've served as a Teacher, Assistant Director, Senior Assistant Head of School, and Head of School, with the latter part of my career spent in the Montessori community. I also have several years of private nannying and babysitting experience. Since becoming a mom, l've been looking for a way to combine two things I love: being present with my almost one-year-old daughter while continuing to teach, nurture, and support young children. I would love to find a family whose child could spend their days learning and growing alongside her. We live in the Harpers Ferry/Bakerton area, near Shepherdstown, and have created a beautiful Montessori-inspired space in our home for young children. Our days would follow a calm, nurturing rhythm with Montessori-inspired activities, practical life, art, sensory exploration, books, music, movement, independent play, and plenty of outdoor time. We especially love nature and being outside! I hold a college degree in General Studies and am CPR and MAT certified, with experience caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and young children. I'm passionate about respectful caregiving, independence, child-led learning, and creating meaningful connections. I'm primarily seeking a part-time arrangement but am flexible with days and hours. Care would take place in our home, although l'm open to morning pick-up and afternoon drop-off if helpful. Most importantly, I hope to find a family who values a small, loving, home-like environment where their child receives individualized attention, spends lots of time outdoors, and has a little companion to learn and grow alongside. I'd love to connect!

Hi, I’m Gloria! I recently transitioned out of the tech sector after a layoff, and I’m excited to spend more time doing something I’ve always loved: helping kids grow into their full potential. Earlier in my career, I spent several years working with children of all ages across a variety of settings, and infants were always where my heart was. I spent about a year as a live-in nanny for a baby girl, starting when she was 3 months old and staying with her through 11 months — it was one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences of my life. I also cared for another infant, a 3-month-old, on a regular basis, and worked with a family with a 1-year-old and a kindergartener, handling morning school drop-offs, lunch prep, daily activities, and enrichment for the younger one, like library trips and socialization time. I’d love to get to know you and your family — feel free to reach out anytime! **Other Experience with Kids** • Girl Scout educator • Art educator • Educator at a children’s home in Ghana **Certifications** Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED: American Red Cross, valid through August 2028 **Pets in the Home** Please note that I am allergic to bunnies and cats, so unfortunately, I cannot help families with either.
