As someone with a passion for children's growth and development, I found my calling in childcare. With 10 years of hands-on experience, I have gained valuable skills in early childhood education and development. My approach is centered around patience, friendliness, and effective communication with parents, ensuring their peace of mind while their children are in my care. I am comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by the parents. From outdoor sports to board games and educational activities, I enjoy engaging children in a variety of play that's both fun and educational. I hold certifications in First Aid Training and CPR Training and have completed coursework in Early Childhood Education and Early Child Development. I'm more than happy to assist with light housekeeping tasks. Choosing me as your childcare provider means your child will receive personalized attention and care in a safe and nurturing environment.

During our visit to D.C. this weekend, Zahara babysat our two children, 6 and 4 years old and did a phenomenal job. She was very communicative during the booking process, showed up early on both evenings she babysat, and most importantly, took wonderful care of the children. She did activities with them, spent hours doing crafts and coloring, and even making pizza for dinner. The kids were very excited to see her again on her second night of babysitting and we felt very comfortable with leaving them under her care. Her teaching background is evident as she expertly managed watching over them and kindly enforced bed time. I highly recommend!
