I am a Youth Leader at my local church. Currently I am running a farm with 30+ animals. I love and care for all animals deeply. Specialize in crisis management.
Hello! My name is Kaylee, and I moved to Virginia from Massachusetts about a year ago. As I have gotten settled in, I have been excited to connect with families in the community and offer reliable babysitting/pet support. Kids are usually a little sad to see me leave after a babysitting session, and that’s because I make it my priority to create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for them. I’ve spent several years caring for toddlers (my favorite age group—they always keep me on my toes!) as well as older children. I also have two years of experience working in professional daycare settings. My responsibilities have included arts and crafts, homework help, creative play, light cleaning, and pet care. I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes—I have owned two large-size dogs weighing over 100 pounds —so walking, feeding, bathing, and playtime are no problem. The only thing I can’t accommodate is homes with cats due to allergies, but otherwise, I’d love the chance to support your family and help your little ones have a great time while you’re away!
Hi - My name is Sam “19” and I am offering child care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years I can also cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own siblings,nieces and nephews. I can cook,clean, drive to appointments, or do other tasks.I am happy to work with families with dogs and cats.
I have provided child care before, during and after graduating from Meredith College, I stayed home and homeschooled my own 2 children who are now 16.5, daughter, and 22, son. My daughter would love to come with me and play and snuggle too. When my children were young, I cared for several single Moms' kids and a couple of other families. As they grew older, I found a data entry job and real estate from home. I miss having time with little ones and would love to provide occasional care for others. I am a former lifeguard and have had my CPR recertified a few times over the years that included infants as well. My daughter and I also provided senior care to my 2 parents for the last 3+ years. I can provide transportation to shops, take out to lunch, provide activities, and accompany them to Dr appointments. I know how hard it is to find people one can trust and would love to help others after being blessed with having found amazing help. References are available!
I am grad student, former athlete, and board game fanatic. I am happy to drive or pick up kids from activities. I’m game for pretty much anything and would love the chance to get to know your kid(s)!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
