Meet college nannies and sitters from Virginia Commonwealth University

I love children and children love me. I’m very lucky and blessed, children are enchanted with me and we naturally delight in each others company. I am a highly trained caregiver in providing for your child’s mental, emotional and physical needs. I bring over 25 years of practical experience with children, from infancy through teenage-hood. I’ve had unique opportunities of working with children ranging in needs from being deemed extremely gifted to being a patient in a lock-down psychiatric ward. It’s important to me that children are given the opportunity to and learn to cultivate their ability to: thrive, be resilient, express themselves fully, develop high levels of self-efficacy & self-worth, love and be loved. I love to play! I’m crafty, artsy, musical, adventurous, active, happy and have great boundaries! Children naturally love me, this makes my job very easy. 😍 (I’ve also worked as a private chef, caterer, and personal assistant.) Some of my experiences with children include: -2 summers of teaching K-5 Science and Art for summer school, 4 yrs of substitute teaching, 2.5 years teaching pre-school for 3'-4's, 2yrs as aTiger Cub 'mom', 2 years I ran a Children's Crisis Shelter, 4 yrs I worked in a lock-down Psychiatric Children's Facility. I was a licensed Respite Care Provider and Foster Parent. I contracted with Child Protective Services for 5 years. I created a program working with Autistic boys (1 yr), for 4.5 years I was a Family Builder Specialist and Program Manager, for 2 yrs I was a Child Developmental and Behavioralist Specialist. I have been a temporary, part time, and full time nanny and sitter for over 20years. Over Covid lockdown I ran a private school and course for grades k&1. I volunteer with Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and Adventure Scouts, food kitchens, Women’s DV shelters... Using my expertise in emotions, I teach classes for parents (and also for children) on empowerment, emotional development and intelligence, transformation, and self efficacy/esteem. ** Please note that I have cancellation policy - if you cancel a booking with in a week of, I charge a $50 cancellation fee or 50% of the booking, whichever is higher.

Updated June 2026: able to pick-up daytime jobs or re-occurring Nanning in the Mornings this summer as I just got Downsized from my corporate job. I’ve been on this app for 10 years and babysat and Nannied while growing through my 20’s. I work with a few Families in the Neighborhood, I live in Wicker Park, and happy to provide references. I have experience nannying for infants as young as 4 months through toddlers, families with multiples under the age of 3, and larger families with adolescents to pre-teen. Personally, I love being outside when I can, going for walks and to the park. I practice yoga, paint, and enjoy various other crafts, and would love to create with kids. I am a healthy eater and don't mind cooking for families while working with them. I also volunteer at a local Animal Shelter (One Tail at a Time) so I am ok with pets in the house or pet-sitting. Will be out of town from 6/18-7/6

I am a 48yo married mother of an awesome 12yo son. I have been a registered nurse/case manager for almost 25 years- currently on disability. My goal is to earn a small amount of extra spending money doing something I love- caring for infants and young toddlers. I am trustworthy, dependable, accountable, with a clean driving record, non smoker, and non drinker. I love to nurture and play with infants and young children. I believe kids are happier and more secure with consistent boundaries, using firm but kind words. I would love to meet you and answer any questions you may have.

31 year old mother of two (daughters ages 7 and 9) and substitute teacher with ample experience with children from infancy to age fifteen. Adult and pediatric CPR, first aid, and AED certified. My substitute teaching experience, as well as being a mother, has given me the ability to multitask and adapt easily in any situation. I also have experience with homework support, pet sitting, household chores and cleaning, and errand running. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have, I look forward to hearing from you! 🤗
