Are you seeking a sitter whose care and companionship will enrich your family? Someone whose presence is a source of comfort and fun, not a cause for worry?

I'm a self-employed writer and tutor in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of DC. I've been caring for infants and children for more than 40 years, as a big sister, as an au pair during a writing stint in Paris, and as a nanny during graduate school. In the early 90s, while freelancing, I was a nanny and sitter for several families in Atlanta.

I consider nurturing children an honorable occupation that demands intelligence, imagination and integrity. My clients appreciate the fact that I'm not a typical child-care provider. Parents value my sophistication, candor and genuine engagement with their children. Kids of all ages like me because I'm warm, gentle and playful.

I'm a nanny to two infants all day Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. But I'm available for occasional child-care jobs every evening and during the day Monday, Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday. I prefer jobs within the district and those that are no more than 30 minutes away by Metro. I have a driver's license and an immaculate driving record, but I do not own a vehicle.

Check out my profile, reviews and references. If I sound like a person you want in your child's life, please call me. Be assured that I respond to every initial inquiry within 24 hours.
