A little bit about me

About Me
Hi! My name is Aissatou Barry, I live in the DMV area. And I’m 27 years old. I’ve been working with children ages 1 through 12 for over 6 years, and caring for kids has truly become a passion of mine. I’m known for being patient, attentive, and nurturing, qualities that help me build strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents.

What makes me a great candidate is not just my experience, but my genuine love for helping children grow, learn, and feel safe. I’m dependable, creative with activities, and quick to adapt to each child’s unique needs and personality.

I’m also fluent in both English and French, which allows me to communicate easily with diverse families and even introduce children to a second language if desired!

I look forward to the opportunity to bring warmth, care, and fun to your family’s daily routine.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Relevant experience where I also cared for children includes working as a nanny for several private families, volunteering in childcare programs at community events, and helping organize age-appropriate learning and play activities in group settings. In each of these roles, I’ve gained hands-on experience managing routines, supporting early development, and creating a warm and structured environment for kids to thrive.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love creating fun, educational, and enriching experiences for the children I care for. Some of my favorite activities include:
• Arts and crafts – from painting and drawing to DIY projects that spark creativity
• Outdoor play – going to the park, nature walks, bike rides, or simple backyard games
• Reading time – exploring books together and encouraging early literacy
• Learning games – incorporating age-appropriate activities that build skills in math, language, and problem-solving
• Music and dancing – singing songs, having little dance parties, or introducing fun rhythms
• Cooking and baking – making simple, kid-friendly recipes together (safely supervised)
• Imaginative play – building forts, dress-up and games.
• Bilingual activities – teaching basic French words and phrases in a fun and interactive way

I always tailor activities to fit each child’s interests, developmental stage, and energy level, while making sure they’re safe, engaging, and full of joy.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part about being a nanny is building a strong, trusting relationship with both the child and the family. Children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and understood, and I believe it’s my job to create that kind of environment every day. It’s not just about supervision, it’s about being a consistent, caring presence who supports their development, encourages their curiosity, and helps them grow into confident, kind individuals. Being a nanny means becoming part of a child’s world in a meaningful way, and that’s a responsibility I take to heart.

My experience with special needs children...

I have cared for a child that had autism

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was when I helped a 4-year-old I was caring for learn how to write her name for the first time. We had been practicing for a few weeks with fun, creative activities like tracing letters in sand and using finger paint. The day she proudly wrote her name all by herself, she looked up at me with the biggest smile, and we both celebrated like it was a huge victory, because it was! Moments like that remind me how rewarding it is to be part of a child’s growth and confidence. It’s those little milestones that make this work so meaningful to me.
