Hi families! I’m looking for anyone who can use my help. I have experience mostly with childcare, but I am capable of taking care of your elder loved one as well. I am a special education major at JMU, and I have 7+ years experience with children of all ages! I currently work in the childcare room at a fitness studio in my hometown but I’m currently looking for some work while I’m at college! Please reach out if you could use my help in any way! I can provide references of families I have worked with over the years. && I know cpr!

I have worked with children of all ages for approximately 11 years. Three years ago, I moved to Virginia after living in the Bronx, New York, for 16 years. I have experience working in various daycare settings, and I ran my own daycare in the Bronx for two years before having to close it due to the pandemic. Currently, I work at a preschool. I enjoy doing crafts and other activities with children that help them learn.

I started babysitting for my neighbors when I was 11 years old. I babysat for two families; the first had a 7-year-old and a newborn. The second family had three children, the youngest was an infant when I first started sitting for them. Not only did I watch the kids, I also typically cooked and served meals, cleaned the play areas and kitchen, and watched the dog. Fast forward, I'm now the mom of two adult "children," both fully launched and doing well. I'm looking to fill some time and make some extra income, either by babysitting or og walking/sitting. Additionally, I'm great at interior design. I can help you organize your home, prepare for a move, or utilize your existing furniture for a makeover (hourly rate for design work is $50. I can help in the yard or garden, too.

Hello! I have been babysitting since I was 13. During high school I was a regular caretaker for a 6 and 8 year old and their puppy. It was a joy to watch them grow over the course of a few years. I also had many other less committal gigs with kids ranging from infant to middle school. One example of a regular job was caring for a family of a 2,4 and 6 year old (and getting them all to bed!). Through out college I picked up some gigs here and there. One summer after college I ran a 2 week nature based day camp for 3-5 year-olds. I love witnessing the creativity and wisdom of children and understand the most important thing is encouraging them to be their true selves and making sure they’re safe and at ease. I work as a gardener. I am also an artist. I have a cat Lillie and have been a professional dog walker and care taker for years. So I am happy to help with any animal support! I also love to cook and bake, so it would be a joy to help feed your kiddos. Bonus : I genuinely love to clean, so put me to the task! Happy to help out in any way.

I am a student teacher’s assistant for general chemistry at UVA and an in-home caregiver for dementia patients. Pet care is also included in my job as an in-home caregiver as I currently help take care of two cats. At home I have a fish tank and in the past I have kept birds and a rabbit, as well as hermit crabs. I am very patient, responsible, and I relate to people of all ages very well.
