Hi, I'm Nairobi, and I'm a Psychology Bachelor’s student in my sophomore year. I love to sing, dance, do crafts, theatre, bake, build Legos, and be of service to others. I have been babysitting for individual children for almost 4 years and have done group babysitting multiple times. In addition to babysitting, I have done internships in elementary school and daycare. I have worked with babies and children from 6 months to 6 years old and have also been a short-term youth camp leader for preteens. I am comfortable babysitting up to two children, arts and crafts, outdoor games, meal preparation/bottle feeding, diaper changes, reading, nap/bedtime, light housekeeping, Richmond events, and museum/indoors play spaces in the area. I have a seafood allergy, so I can't be around seafood. I am also CPR/First Aid/AED Certified and completed an Advanced Child Care Training course through the American Red Cross. I also started my job as a behavioral therapist/technician with children in ABA therapy at the start of the summer. I'm mainly available on Saturdays between 8:00 am to 9:30 pm. If there are no changes to my schedule, I am available on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 12:30 pm- 7:00 pm and 3:30 pm- 9:00 pm on Wednesdays and Fridays. I don't have a car, so I would have to walk or use public transit with your child (if you are comfortable). I’m excited to create a fun and safe environment for your little ones!
Hi! I’m Haley. I have lived in Richmond for almost 5 years and am a Virginia Beach native. I have been a babysitter for over 15 years. I also provide dog care in home and walks as well! At this time, I am only available for dog sitting and babysitting. I am not available for full or part time nanny opportunities.
“Haley is a wonderful pet sitter, she has a ton of animal experience from small to large animals and always does a great job caring for our two pups, one who is a senior dog. She is reliable, communicative and our dogs absolutely love her. Would recommend her house and pet sitting services to anyone!”
Hello, my name is Bree! I am 26 years old and I currently work at VSU and I am also a youth mentor. I graduated from VCU in 2020 with degrees in Criminal Justice and Homeland Security/Emergency Preparedness. I have always worked with children since babysitting for various families while in highschool/college and also throughout my career as a substitute teacher, student support specialist, youth mentor, and a basketball/lacrosse coach. My certifications include: Youth Mental Health First Aid, CPR/AED/First Aid, Trauma Informed Care, and Mandated Reporting. I have experience working with children ages 0-18, but my preference is 0-7. I love working with children, and I can’t wait to meet yours!

"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."
Lila P., parent

"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!"
