Hi there! I am a mom of 2 grown kiddos, 25 and 21. I have lived in Virginia Beach for most of my life. I have over 35 years of childcare experience including 6 full time summers, 4 years of teaching at a local day care, and years of working in my church nursery. In college, I majored in Psychology and Early Childhood Education. I have been trained in CPR for over 30 years and I was a certified CPR & 1st Aid Instructor for over 6 years. I have worked with multiples in the past as well as children with ADD/ADHD, Autism, Down Syndrome. Also, my son has had asthma, allergies, mild ADD, and Tourette's Syndrome and has had respiratory problems since he was 6 weeks old so I am well versed in dealing with a variety of issues. I am available on weeknights after 4:30pm and weekends. I am open to occasional overnight care at your home. I am a Virginia Beach school employee so when school is closed, I am usually available as well.

Hello parents! 😁 I’m a proud mother of five children, three ladies and two fellas, ages 20 to 27. In 2022, I became a Grammy to each a girl and a boy and another grandson came along in 2024. Twelve years ago, I earned a Master’s degree in Education and have over seven years of teaching experience in public education at both the high school and middle school levels. In my early years of motherhood, I operated in-home daycares for infants to pre-school aged children. I have taught and assisted many times in church Sunday School classes (nursery to high school) and have led and assisted with Vacation Bible School (nursery to high school). I have also led and assisted with youth groups and activities to include attending week-long summer camps and weekend retreats. I’m a divorcee of a retired serviceman. For those military families reviewing my profile, I’m very familiar with life in the military and the challenges that are presented along the journey. Thank you for your dedication and service! Needless to say, I have a genuine love for children of all ages and enjoy teaching and nurturing them; helping each one grow and learn to be the unique person they are created to be. Activities I take pleasure in are walking, reading, crafting, healthy eating, spending time in the kitchen and listening to music (dancing to the music, as well, even if someone is watching!). These are also some of the things I like to do with children, and of course, encouraging them to find and pursue their own interests and participating along with them. Life is certainly meant to be enjoyed, but there are times the fun might need to wait. You can be assured that your children will be accountable for their personal responsibilities (when applicable) like chores and homework (which I’m more than willing to assist), but who says these things can’t be fun? It’s all about perspective and that’s what I hope to instill in your children should you give me the opportunity. I appreciate the time you have taken to review my profile!

Hello, my name is Alyesha Elliott. I first got into the childcare business through my mother. She owns her own Learning Center and I was trained to have the ability to provide immaculate care to children. Children are the future of the world, therefore; we should care for them accordingly. I initially worked as a floater which means that I have the ability to work with all ages. Then, I was promoted to a Lead Teacher for the infant and toddler classroom. It doesn’t matter what age your child is I love to encourage a growing mind! I love what I do because of the impact that you can have on a child(ren). You must be aware of all of the child’s personality, needs, likes, dislikes, and much more. Therefore, it is much easier for a child to adapt to me and for me to adapt to a child(ren) because I have been working in this field for 10 years. I love getting to know the child(ren) personally and I look forward to getting to meet you and your child ! Please contact me with any further questions if this applies. Also I am located in Haygood Virginia Beach area and willing to travel, I just can’t change the location in my profile view.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth, and I bring over 15 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages—from infants and toddlers to preschoolers and school-aged kids. I’ve worked both in classrooms and as a private nanny, and I’m passionate about creating a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment where children can grow and thrive. I’m CPR, First Aid, and AED certified, and I’m also Medication Administration Trained (MAT). I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with families through clear communication, consistency, and a caring heart. Whether we’re exploring nature, doing a craft, reading books, or simply sharing giggles, I love tailoring activities to each child’s interests and developmental stage. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, and children’s laundry. I’m dependable, calm under pressure, and truly love what I do. I’d be honored to become a trusted part of your family’s routine!
