"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Destinee $17 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Destinee!! I’m currently a CNA and I’ve worked as a pediatric CNA, so I have real hands-on experience caring for kids and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. I’m also BLS CPR certified. I’m super patient, easygoing, and I genuinely enjoy being around kids. I like doing things like crafts, playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy. At the same time, I take safety really seriously and always stay attentive. I’m reliable and understanding, and I’m happy to help out with things like meals, bedtime routines, or light cleaning if needed. I’d love to be someone you can trust with your kids and make things easier for your family!!!

I’m responsible, patient, and love creating a safe and fun environment for children. I have completed CPR training in high school and am in the process of obtaining my official certification. I’m reliable, organized, and comfortable helping with homework, light meal prep, and bedtime routines. I would love the opportunity to support your family!

I’ve also worked in residential and commercial cleaning, so I’m respectful of families’ homes and routines. I’m energetic, patient, and genuinely enjoy connecting with kids through outdoor activities, creative play, and fun indoor games.

$30 per hour for 1 childBooked by 1 family in Boyce, VA
Pet sitting on and off for about 5 years. Love animals and am involved in a cat rescue. Have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. Have 4 cats of my own so understand what it's like to desire a trusted sitter.
Kayeann $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi, my name is Kayeann and I have been working as a nanny for 41 years and I love what I am doing. Children are a blessing to work with in my eyes, I adore working with newborns through five years old because that is the most important years of their lives. During the first five years children are a sponge and learn so much. Children over all are just a pleasure to work with. I love working with the future of the world and inspiring them to be the best they can be.
