A little bit about me

I am an experienced caregiver with over 15 years of experience as an educational aide in DCPS kindergarten classrooms, and 3 years as a full-time nanny. I have cared for children of all ages, from infants through high-school. I have a genuine love for childcare, and helping children learn and grow in a patient but structured environment.

I'm a mother of 5 and bring real-life experience to every family I work with. I'm originally from Senegal and I came to Washington, DC over 40 years ago where I created and raised my family. I live in Northwest, DC, and I am very experienced in navigating the city in my Toyota Highlander, a safe and reliable car which has more than enough room for your little ones. I'm reliable, nurturing, and committed to creating a safe environment where your children can thrive. My references are available upon request.
