My watch. Strong’s #4931, mishmereth, feminine.  a guardianess, a watcher. This is a noun derived from the masculine counterpart mishmar (#4929) guard, watcher, keeper. Both from the verb shamar, to guard, watch, keep.

"Founded one" as in foundations laid from the root verb yarah meaning "to lay foundation", see note Gen. 29:35
