Meet Kalkidan

Hello! I've always loved kids and spending time with them/taking care of them. I graduated in 2018 with my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education. I finished a master's program in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages with McDaniel College this past summer and truly value diversity and culture. I've been teaching kindergarten for almost 7 years now in a Title 1 Mongomery County Public School and love children. I enjoy cooking, listening to audiobooks, spending time with my loved ones and finsing creative outlets. I am respectful, caring, kind, responsible, dedicated, and my friends and family would describe me as reliable and trustworthy. I look forward to possibly working with your family soon!

Kalkidan is everything you dream of when it comes to a caretaker for your children! My 3 and 5 year old absolutely love her on top of being able to find different activities to challenge them developmentally and academically! Definitely recommend and will be having her care for our littles as long as we can!

I couldn't be more pleased with the care provided by Kalkidan. From the moment she arrived, she was warm and friendly. She followed all instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure my little ones comfort and happiness. It was clear that Kalkidan is not only responsible but genuinely loves children. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel so at ease while I was away. I highly recommend Kalkidan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I will definitely be working with her again!
