Find nannies in Colonial Heights, VA

Hello, my name is Allyson! Caring for children has been one of the greatest joys in my life. I've been babysitting and nannying since I was 12 years old and have had the privilege of caring for dozens of families with children ranging from just 2 weeks old through 12 years old. I am currently the Lead Teacher in an infant classroom at a daycare in Chesterfield. I moved to the area this summer from Wisconsin with my partner after earning my M.A. in Public Service from Marquette University. While I enjoy working with children of all ages, I have a special passion for caring for infants. Building trusting relationships with families is incredibly important to me, and several parents have shared that I was the first person outside of their family they felt comfortable leaving their baby with. I consider that trust an incredible honor and strive to provide every child with patient, attentive, and loving care. My graduate fellowship at a child welfare agency deepened my holistic approach to caregiving. There, I received training in trauma-informed care and Trust-Based Relational Intervention, strengthening my understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and the importance of secure, responsive relationships. I am also currently earning a Trauma Informed Care Certification through Michigan State University to continue expanding my knowledge and provide the best care possible for every child I work with. Whether we're reading books, exploring outside, creating art, or working through big emotions together, I strive to create an environment where children feel safe, respected, and encouraged to learn. I'm also happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework/educational activities, and pet care so I can be a dependable, supportive presence for your entire family. On a personal note, I love being in water, quality time with my partner, singing, going to parks, and snuggles with with my kitty, Miss Araya Sunshine. One of my long-term dreams is to open a daycare centered on social-emotional learning, nervous system regulation, and helping children explore their interests and build confidence through safe, nurturing relationships. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide quality, nurturing care to your littles!

Hi there! My name is Alysta, and I’ve been babysitting for about 6 years. Most of my experience is with younger children, including infants and toddlers, but I enjoy spending time with kids of all ages. I truly love helping children learn, play, and grow in a safe and fun environment. Families I’ve worked with describe me as kind, reliable, and patient someone their kids get excited to see! I enjoy planning creative activities, reading stories, and making sure each child feels comfortable and cared for. I take safety seriously and always treat every child as if they were my own family. Whether you need a regular sitter, last-minute help, or someone trustworthy for a date night, I’d love to lend a hand. I look forward to meeting your family and helping make your days a little easier!
