Hi! I’m Aleah. I have 4 years of childcare experience, including babysitting for military families at Schofield Barracks in Wahiawa, Hawaii, and at Sasebo Naval Base in Japan. I’m also a big sister to four younger sisters, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I love animals, marine life, learning new things, and trying new experiences. I’m creative, patient, and enjoy keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, outdoor activities, and other fun adventures. I am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive while providing a safe, positive, and supportive environment.
Hi! My name is Corrine, and I'm an upcoming sophomore at Hampton University with a genuine passion for working with children. I currently work at a daycare, where I've gained hands-on experience caring for children in a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment. I love building meaningful connections with kids, encouraging their creativity, and helping them learn and grow through fun activities. I'm a dependable, patient, and responsible caregiver who understands the importance of creating a positive environment where children feel safe, supported, and happy. Whether it's helping with homework, planning fun activities, preparing simple meals, or sticking to bedtime routines, I'm committed to making each family's day a little easier. I'm currently looking for babysitting or part-time nanny opportunities and would love the chance to become a trusted caregiver for your family. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!
I am 20 years old and am currently in school to become an elementary school teacher. I have always wanted to become a teacher. I have been at a daycare for a little over a year now. I have had to get a few certifications with working here. I am CPR and first aid certified, I have some child development courses/certified and some health and safety ones as well. I have some knowledge on how to help teach them the certain milestones they need at the young developing age. I have always loved dogs and pretty much any animal.
Hello all, My name is Shakira. I’m originally from Rochester, Ny but I’ve relocated down to Norfolk, Va for college. I’m the youngest sibling of many so for most of my life I’ve been babysitting all my nieces and nephew. I’m very energetic and down to earth so for me it’s easy to connect with kids of all ages. I’m a jack of all trades so I’m open to doing any activity that a kid might enjoy including sports, baking, walking, reading, and video games/board games. I am a sponge when it comes to information so anything I don’t know I will make sure I learn it. I look forward to connecting with your family.
“Incredibly kind and great with my two boys! Went above and beyond to take care of them. Would love to have her again for future care! ”
Hello! My name is Gina, and I’ve been working with kids for over 8 years. I started caring for my siblings at 16, then babysat for neighborhood families. Over the years, I’ve worked primarily with babies, but I enjoy working with kids of all ages. I came to the United States as an au pair in 2017 and spent a couple of years with a wonderful family. After that, I moved abroad to complete a master’s degree while teaching English to children in Spain. I returned to the DMV area in 2021 and have been working with families in DC and Maryland ever since. For the past couple of years, I’ve also been working in international development and advocacy. If you notice reviews from a while ago, it’s because I’ve maintained long-term relationships with families who still reach out to me occasionally. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like references. I’d be happy to provide them!
