Ashley watched my twins while I was away for three weeks at school in Norfolk and she did an amazing job! It's not easy being the mama of twins but Ashley stepped up and took it on and was my savior! She is amazing! If your looking for someone to take great care of your little one and someone that you can trust Ashley is the lady for the job!

Jan helped us with our 4 yo daughter and was great with her! She made her feel comfortable right away and kept her busy with on going activities and play ideas! Jan helped enforce the concepts she was learning in school and taught her great gross and fine motor skills and gave us detailed feedback from each day. I highly recommend Jan, she is trustworthy and exceptional.

Raquel is such an amazing babysitter/nanny. She is able to keep my 2 year old engaged the entire day. My daughter will literally tell me to leave so she can play with Raquel. Raquel has improved my daughter's vocabulary significantly. She teachers her words, sounds, shapes, letters, animals, the weather and so much more. My dajghters imagination has also increased greatly by all the pretend play Raquel does with her. Raquel is just so amazing with my daughter and I'm so glad we found her. She is never on her phone during the day and even during my daughter's nap, she continues to check on her to make sure she is ok. I highly recommend Raquel!

Riley was great with our 2 month old. She knew how to feed, chnage, soothe and hold baby. She did all the baby chores (laundry, bottles, diaper station stocking up) as well as keeping the baby engaged. We were sorry to see her go but she's off to bigger adventures and we wish her the very best.

I bring multiple decades of childcare experience from Babysitting & being a Nanny for a number of families. My experience also includes coaching Gymnastics, Yoga and Fitness classes. At my last position, I was a Preschool Gymnastics Director, which I absolutely LOVED! Unfortunately, due to budget cuts, my position was eliminated in 2025. I loved that job so much because I was able to develop such close relationships not just with the kids, but with the extended families of parents and grandparents in a fun, active & safe environment! I have extensive experience working with children of all ages, but I definitely have a specialty and a sweet spot for babies, toddlers and preschoolers! I am a Mom (which I love more than anything) of 2 boys that are 20 & 13 & have a 5yo niece that I spend a lot of time with too!! I am very energetic, patient, friendly and approachable and always keep communication open with parents as well as adhering to your household rules. Active outdoor play is my favorite!! I love going to parks, playing games and swimming. I also have a variety of active movement songs for all ages with props such as parachute & tumbling mats. I own a 2024 Nissan Murano & have a clean driving record with lots of safety features if any driving would be required. I am comfortable with meal preps, nap and/or bedtime stories, baths, etc. I have a college degree in Communications and am First Aid, CPR & Safe Sport certified. I also have all of my background clearances as well as several references. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to reach out to me!!

Hi, I’m Sofia, a nursing student with dreams of becoming a midwife (Currently attend Virginia Wesleyan University). I adore kids and have plenty of experience caring for toddlers, thanks to my own sibling and numerous family members. From running around outside to getting creative with painting and drawing, I love finding fun activities to share with children. My adaptable nature helps me connect with kids of all ages and personalities. I’m patient, empathetic, and always ready to spark joy and foster growth. Creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive is my priority.

Hi parents! I'm a super patient, passionate, and empathetic sitter with a BS in Biology, MS in Biology, and some nursing experience. While I mostly babysit for family and friends, I have strong experience with infants-5 y/o children. I provide engaging activities such as imaginative toy play, Bluey-style dance parties, going to the park, and fun bedtime stories with multiple character voices. I love to cook so meal prep for the little ones would be no problem at all! I've worked with neurodivergent children especially children with ADHD, moderate autism, and AuADHD. As a fellow ADHDer I understand understimulation, overstimulation, and everything else in between. Since I have 2 college degrees heavily based in research and laboratory skills, I can provide tutoring to your little one with ease. I am available in the afternoon, evenings, or weekends as a part time sitter/nanny. I want to combine my love for kids and free time into a productive experience that also helps families in need.
