A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Sam, and I’m an experienced, dependable, and active nanny. I have experience caring for children ages 2, 4, 7, and 9, so I’m comfortable with both younger and school-aged kids.

I love keeping kids active and engaged through outdoor activities, crafts, reading, and fun outings. I’m responsible, patient, energetic, and comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I’d love to find a family I can build a great relationship with and be someone both the kids and parents can depend on!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Anaya B., a senior at Howard University offering child care, senior care, and household services.
I’ve been caring for children since I was 13, with experience ranging from newborns and infants to toddlers and school-aged kids. I’m also experienced working with children who have disabilities or learning challenges. Whether it's driving to and from school, doing arts and crafts, tutoring, or just spending quality time, I’m here to help!
In addition to child care, I work as a household assistant — cooking, cleaning, and running errands to keep things running smoothly.
I also provide compassionate senior care, including help with cooking, transportation to appointments, companionship, and day-to-day tasks.
Please note that I’m allergic to cats, but I’m happy to work in homes with small dogs.
I’d love the opportunity to support your family — feel free to reach out!

A little bit about me

Greetings my name is Heaven Johnson I am 21 years old. I have one son his name is River and he is 2 months old. I love kids no matter what age they stand. I've been working with kids since I was a kid I started at the age of twelve and worked my way up. In the beginning, I wasn't getting reimbursed but when I turned eighteen I got paid. Once I started getting paid I worked with kids in a daycare center which was called love and care educational center located in Washington DC. I’ve worked with children ages 2-5 and I’ve learned a lot through out my time being there. I’ve helped with children personal hygiene also with maintaining cleanliness in the activity areas. I’ve also read to the children during reading time and also provided mental stimulation to babies and toddlers through games and activities. I also help with homework I’m very good at math.
