A little bit about me

My name is Mary and I just relocated from DC as a full time nanny. I have been a nanny for over a year, and a babysitter for 4 years. I am a musician, and I love to sing for children - so if your children love Disney princesses - Tiana, Moana, Rapunzel you name it.. I can be that person for them. I also offer piano lessons for children! Though I wouldn't like to consider myself as fluent in Spanish, I do speak the language intermediately, and am a fluent speaker of ASL. Happy to offer lessons in ASL as well. A learning beginner of Arabic and Vietnamese.

"Mary was wonderful! My kids (age 2 and 5) warmed to her very quickly. She was kind but firm, full of energy and patience and knew just how to interact with my kids. She was safety conscious and I could see she was observant and attentive. She was on time and reliable and very professional in her communications with me. We all loved her!"

A little bit about me

Dear families,
I am a French native speaker with 10 years of experience as a nanny, and about 6 years as a preschool teacher. While I've enjoyed working in a classroom with different dynamics, I realized that I prefer one-on-one relationship so I can connect deeply with a child and support their development in their home environment. I am a patient and very nurturing caregiver. Children come towards me naturally.
I am looking forward to providing a creative engagement for your children.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Kaydence!

I’m nonbinary, my pronouns are he/him. I’m 25 and have over 11 years of childcare experience, ranging from teaching dance to au pair/nanny positions. Caring for kids is one of my greatest passions! And my other passions- singing, dancing, and anything to do with creativity- are integrated heavily into my childcare methods. I am highly experienced and comfortable caring for newborns and up!
I'm not easily embarrassed and am more than happy to make a fool of myself if it means making a kiddo smile!
I lived in Europe for about 3 years- most recently Paris. I speak some French, which I like to incorporate into my time with my kiddos! I’m a very kind, loving, and silly nanny, but their safety and development are always at the forefront of my care methods.

I’m happy to provide references! Thanks for your time!

"My daughter was very shy and reserved. From the first time we met Kaydence, she had a connection with my daughter and was able to help bring her out of her shell. She was always punctual and would share pictures and texts throughout the day so I could see how well my daughter was doing. They spent time outside and played and the television was never on. They worked on different activities to include coloring, walks and dancing. They would have picnics in the backyard to help make the day fun. Kaydence was patient, kind and fun. I will be forever grateful for how well she took care of my little girl!"

"Maryza knows how to balance being fun and being responsible, making her an ideal nanny. She is full of energy and always has ideas for ways to get the kids outside and moving, which we appreciated! Our kids loved spending time with her. She helped them manage their virtual schooling during 2020 and kept their spirits lifted during rough patches of the pandemic. We were so very grateful to have such a kind and loving person with them. They have MANY fun memories with her! We whole heartedly recommend her. Her positivity is so refreshing--your kiddos will have a wonderful time with her."
