"am pleased to recommend Sofia as a childcare provider. She cared for our baby with great responsibility, patience, and genuine affection. From the very beginning, Sofia showed strong skills in infant care, including feeding, diaper changes, maintaining nap schedules, and ensuring a safe and calm environment at all times. She was extremely attentive to our baby’s needs, always proactive, gentle, and reliable. Sofia communicated well with us, followed instructions carefully, and showed excellent judgment when caring for our child. We trusted her completely and felt at ease knowing our baby was in loving and capable hands. Sofia is dependable, warm, and truly dedicated to childcare. Any family would be fortunate to have her care for their child. I highly recommend her without hesitation."

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Bailey! I'm a 27 year old Bethesda-based caregiver with 15 years of childcare experience, from babysitting across a wide range of ages to serving as a teacher's assistant for a first-grade classroom. I hold a Bachelor's degree from the College of Charleston in International Studies with a minor in Art History, and I studied French for six years, something I love naturally weaving into storytime and play. I'm calm, nurturing, and genuinely passionate about creating a safe, enriching environment where kids feel supported and confident. I'm Red Cross certified in Adult, Child & Baby First Aid/CPR/AED and committed to keeping my training current. I'd love to connect with a family looking for a thoughtful, engaged caregiver. I have experience with children of all ages, with my preference being to work with toddlers and school age children. My preference would be to work in Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Friendship Heights, or Potomac region.

"We were incredibly fortunate to have Bailey care for our two daughters, a 3-year-old and a 1-year-old. She was a loving and dependable person. A calm presence in our home, and our girls adored her. Bailey has a natural ability to connect with children, balancing warmth and affection with patience and structure. She kept our kids engaged through creative play, reading, and outdoor activities. We always felt confident that our girls were safe and happy in her hands. Bailey gave us that peace of mind, she was also consistently reliable, communicative, and professional. She became an important part of our family's daily life and treated our children with genuine care and kindness. The girls really miss her since she moved out of state, we all miss her. Any family would be lucky to have her as their nanny. We highly recommend her and are happy to serve as a reference."

A little bit about me

Hi! I just graduated from Duke University with a double major in Psychology and Visual Arts, and am looking to be a nanny during my gap year before I start my master's program in clinical social work at Smith College in June 2026.

As your nanny, I will show up for your family with energy, warmth, knowledge, adaptability, creative activities, problem solving skills, and the extra set of hands you need!
