About Ogechi
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am native Marylander and a current graduate student at the University of Pittsburgh. I majored in Psychology and Educational Studies at Swarthmore College before pursuing my Master's degree in Elementary Education at Brown University. I was an elementary school teacher and school leader for over 7 years before pursuing my doctoral degree in Education Policy. Over the past 10 years, I have been a nanny/babysitter for children as young as 1 month and as old at 12 years old. In addition to my professional experience, I come from a large family which means that I am always watching young children for family members. To put it simply, I love children! I have enjoyed teaching them in a classroom setting and I enjoy the impromptu lessons that arise because of their curious nature. Right now, I am looking for occasional babysitting/nannying positions. I look forward to speaking with you further and meeting your family. Thank you!

Ogechi worked with our children last summer, and she was awesome!!! We have 2 kids and found her to be completely dependable, responsible and VERY patient. In addition, Ogechi is highly intelligent and extremely articulate with impeccable manners. She set a really great example for our children of what they could achieve with hard work and self-discipline and how they should behave. She was a wonderful employee and our kids still miss and ask about her. :-)
