Find experienced babysitters in Amherst, VA

Hi! I have over five years of experience working with children ages birth-15 years in professional and babysitting settings. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel secure, supported, and encouraged to grow. One of my favorite parts of working with children is seeing the world through their eyes and watching their individual personalities blossom. Safety is always my top priority. I'm in the process of renewing my CPR/First Aid certification and have extensive experience supervising children in both one on one and group settings. I am comfortable supporting feeding routines, nap schedules, potty training, school pickups, and household tasks among other things. I am mainly seeking a full-time nanny position in the North Carolina/Virginia area. I take pride in being a professional caregiver who families can depend on, and children can feel confident and happy with.

I am a current Early Education major with a great passion and desire to work in the development of younger children. I have experiences with taking care of my younger family members and leading an engaging activity for 3rd graders at my former high school.

Hi! I’m Annemarie! I have paid childcare experience as both a nanny and a teacher, and I’ve cared for children from infancy through high school. I’m very comfortable with infant care, routines, and supporting kids at different developmental stages! I’m calm, dependable, and truly love caring for children! Clear communication with parents is really important to me. As a new mom, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your baby with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously while keeping things warm, safe, and positive! I’m excited to connect with a family and would love to chat to see if we’re a great fit!

Hello! My name is Jillian, and I am a North Carolina native starting to make a life in Virginia. I am 25 years old from a family of 6 children and many pets! I am a middle child, with two older siblings and three younger. I love to make things, from knitting a sweater to baking a cake. Nothing feels more rewarding than a physical final product you can share with those you love. I just returned to the US after a year abroad in France. I was an au pair for a family of 5 children, ages 8, 7, 5, 3, and 1. As an au pair, I was a part of the family, as I'd love to become with you! My responsibilities included driving the children to and from school and extracurricular activities when needed, light housework and meal prep, homework help, and general fun with the kids! I was also there to speak English with the children to improve their fluency. I have also worked in ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) for two different companies in Boone, NC and Cary, NC. I worked one-on-one with children with autism, ranging from 3 years to 12 years. The children all had different strengths and needs, and I would follow a program set up by the child's BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) to work on their strengths and needs. Other childcare related positions I have worked include after-school care at an elementary school, multiple internships in elementary school classrooms, and different babysitting, tutoring, and nannying positions over the years. For twelve years, I was a Girl Scout, which instilled a great love for the outdoors. In the last 5 years as a girl scout, I helped plan and run a weekend overnight camp for younger scouts. I look forward to getting to know you. Don't hesitate to reach out and ask me anything!

Hi! My name is Caroline and I am a student athlete at Randolph college. I love kids and animals of all kinds! I have 4 siblings, my little brother has autism so I am good with special needs children because I grew up with one. :)

Hello! My name is Karli Kubik. I'm currently a student at Virginia Commonwealth University studying environmental science. I recently moved back to Richmond at the end of August to begin my sophomore year and I'm looking for a job for the school year. I have about 4 years of experience with childcare, including 3 years of experience as a camp counselors. I also have two younger sisters of my own (ages 6 and 8). I can help with Travel and Grocery Shopping as I do have my own car :)

I graduated in 2019 with a BA in French and Spanish. I am a very hardworking and caring individual and, I love children. I am very family oriented with a little brother of my own that I have cared for my entire life. He is like a son to me. Before leaving North Carolina where I attended school, I was working every day with children grades K-12 at an after-school program along with my studies and playing basketball. I currently babysit regularly for several local families. I have been working professionally in childcare since 2017, and babysitting since I was 16 years old. I have experience with working with children one on one and/or multiple children in a group setting, so babysitting multiple children is no problem for me. In addition to assisting the children with homework and other academic assignments, I was an art and language teacher at the after school program mentioned above, and a tutor as well. I still currently tutor. I would be willing to work with your child on those things while babysitting. I am CPR certified and have BLS training. I believe in being very active and hands-on with activities because that is the best way to learn and play ! General availability: weekends/evenings/nights
