Hi, I’m Avery! I am 26 and live in Richmond. I work as a preschool after teacher and am looking to make some more money! I am new to the city - I lived in NYC for 3 years post-grad, working in media/advertising. I grew up babysitting and had summer camps in my backyard growing up. I would be thrilled to babysit your kids and make sure they have the best time with crafts, reading stories, whatever is fun for them.
Hi! My name is Jessie, and I'm an incoming Dance Major at VCU. My offered services are babysitting, pet sitting, house sitting, and household assistance. Over the past 5 years, I've gained experience as a dance teacher's assistant for 6-14-year-olds, and I have also babysat children and pets of varying ages on an as-needed basis. Tasks have included assisting with cooking, cleaning, and transporting them to their extracurriculars. I'm also a strong team player, so if help is needed around the home, I'm happy to assist.
Hello! My name is Johanna and I'm currently in school for Nursing. I am offering pet care and childcare. I love to babysit and I've been babysitting since I was 17! I've babysat toddlers and preschoolers, I'm also really open to any requirements the parents have for me when babysitting. I'm not allergic to any cats or dogs, so I'm very open with working with them too!
Hi, I’m Christina, I have experience babysitting kids of different ages and I’m comfortable handling things like meals, homework, and bedtime routines. I try to keep kids engaged without just putting them in front of a screen, and I’m good at staying calm and patient if things get hectic. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and take safety seriously. I’m also happy to help out with small tasks around the house if needed.
Hello! My name is Taylor, I just moved to Richmond this August and I am the Nanny for a 15-month-old Mon-Fri 10-3, except Tuesdays are 10-6. We do developmentally appropriate activities like practice using crayons, running/walking in the grass, and more! Before moving, I worked for a family babysitting their toddler son. I would take him to the park and the library, have reading and play time, and help with his fine motor skills as he is learning to walk. I also help with some cleaning like emptying/ filling dishwasher, cleaning countertops, sweeping, taking out trash, etc. I have worked in two learning centers/ daycares, so I have experience in all classes aged infant to school age. I would love to answer any questions you have for me!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
