Latoya is a phenomenal DC Governess who has worked with families in the area and has helped their children learn new things in fun and stimulating ways!

"I have excellent organizational, decision making, analytical and time management skills to balance the needs of the family. I am quality oriented with a focus on accuracy and detail with flexibility to effectively handle various unexpected situations in a professional manner. I enjoy nurturing, caring, stimulating and loving children. I believe if children get the love and nurturing they need at an early age they will be an asset to society. If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the Nanny profession over any other it would have to be because I love working with children. Seeing their happy faces bring a joy to my heart. I have been serving in some form of childcare experience for over 6 years and can honestly say I enjoy what I do! I feel the children are our future. My goals as a Nanny is to love, nurture, stimulate and help raise children so that they can grow into well-rounded individuals. I am willing to do light housekeeping including washing dishes, laundry, cleaning up after the children and sweeping. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am nurturing, patient, trustworthy, kind and responsible. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family would include reading, arts and crafts and some kind of fun exercise. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a DC Governess like me I would hope they would be respectable, open minded and a family who values honesty."

"Latoya fulfilled her job requirements as a DC Governess wonderfully. She was always on-time, interactive and taught my son very well. The house was always kept clean! Additionally, I enjoyed her company and my son loved her! She is responsible, dedicated, kind and very professional for her age. I would hire her again if I could!"

"We hired Latoya shortly after a move to a new state and a new home; and Latoya's calm presence helped our girls adjust and thrive. She played easily with our two year old, fostering her creative imagination and encouraging her to explore the world around her. Her nurturing presence allowed our new born to easily adjust to napping and sleep schedules. Latoya completed each task with care and attention to detail. She cooked nutritious and healthy meals for our older daughter and later helped introduce our younger daughter to her first foods. She was always willing to learn new recipes and often shared her own ideas about how to prepare a particular vegetable or soup so that it would be appealing to young children. She dropped our older daughter off and picked her up at school in a timely fashion. She easily mingled with both the adults and children at play dates and parties. She helped potty-train our two year old. She kept our girls' play space and rooms tidy and did their laundry. She took our younger daughter to music and gym classes and would send pictures and updates of milestones. We highly recommend Latoya without reservation. She will enrich your children's lives while being respectful of your family's rules and values. Had we not moved to another state for work obligations, I have no doubt that Latoya would still be working with us. We maintain a close relationship with her, and she always remembers our girls' birthdays and is interested to hear about developments in their lives."

"Latoya is great with my daughter, and my daughter adores her. My husband and I work long hours and we rely on Latoya to love and care for our daughter and help run the household. Latoya takes her outside to play and does crafts and keeps her engaged and occupied. Latoya does puzzles, reads books and is potty training our daughter. She does laundry, cleans, and cooks dinner for us and helps make our lives easier. She is a very honest person and will love your child like she is her own. You would be very blessed to have Latoya in your family. I hope you consider her for your DC Governess!"

"Latoya did an excellent job in every way. First, and most importantly, she looked after my children with kindness, gentleness and love. She always ensured that they were safe, well fed, properly clothed and happy. On a daily basis, Latoya read with my children, played with them and consistently provided them with a variety of learning opportunities and experiences by taking them to the park, library and recreational activities. Latoya was always reliable and responsible. She arrived on time for work and was flexible in terms of her hours, to meet the needs of our busy family. She followed our requests and instructions exactly as we wished and always supported us as parents. Latoya is a smart and sensible person who always used her best judgment when making decisions about my children. When necessary, Latoya would not hesitate to call me regarding the children – something that gave me full confidence in her while I was away. It is without hesitation that I highly recommend Latoya."

"I am pleased to recommend Latoya for the position of a DC Governess. I believe that she is very competent and experienced; she is extremely qualified to take on the role as a permanent caregiver for a family. Latoya took care of my daughter and she was responsible for preparing and serving healthy meals, taking her to outings to parks and the library, and arranged play dates. She is very enthusiastic about her job and was extremely patient with my daughter. She played games with her and did lots of arts and crafts projects. She is also a very caring and loving person and my daughter really loved her company. I felt at ease leaving my daughter in her care. I believe she will be a great asset to any family!"
