Brianna $15 per hour for 1 child

I’m a former teacher with over a year of experience substitute teaching children ages 3–13, along with professional nanny and babysitting experience. 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. I love laughing, keeping kids engaged, and creating a safe, positive environment. I look forward to meeting your family

Lucia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Lucia, and I have loved working with children as long as I can remember. My professional experience naturally landed me in education administration at different capacities from Pre-K, to K-12, and even higher education. However, I have had the privilege of holding many hands-on roles directly working in classrooms for 4 years now, primarily with ages from 3 months to 5 years old. My most recent role was oversight of the children's ministry at my local church in Virginia Beach, VA, and I loved every minute of it. I look forward to connecting!

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.
