Alyaa S., Babysitter in Chester, VA 23831 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi my name is Alyaa! For the past 7 years, I have worked with children in multiple age groups. I started at the age of twelve and assisted a military couple who had a newborn and a two year old. At the age of thirteen and on, I babysat for a variety of families through my church and I became a youth leader for vacation bible school. Also, I babysat for close family and friends for many years as well. I am a very responsible and patient caretaker who will provide a safe and fun environment for your child. I am willing to assist your child with homework, do light housework, transportation from school, prepare dinner, etc. If you are looking for helping hand who genuinely cares about your child’s well-being contact me.

Alana K., Babysitter in Chester, VA 23831 with 8 years of paid experience

I’ve been providing trusted child care since I was 10 years old. I truly adore children and prioritize creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where they feel heard, supported, and free to learn and grow. I am respectful of parents’ wishes and strive to ensure they feel completely comfortable and confident when leaving their children in my care. Building trust and connection comes naturally to me—I am patient, empathetic, and always attentive to a child’s unique needs. Whether it’s finding creative ways to engage them through activities and crafts, helping with new ways to approach chores, reading stories at bedtime, or diffusing tantrums with care and understanding, I approach every situation with warmth and positivity. Friends, family and those on Sittercity have frequently trusted me with childcare (including watching multiple children at the same time, and/or those with special needs), and I am often praised for my attentiveness and ability to build strong relationships with children. If you’re looking for a caring and reliable sitter who will create a fun and enriching experience for your little ones, I’d love to connect! I have a bachelors degree, and have been in the design industry for over 18 years. When I'm not working you'll find me spending time outdoors, snuggling with my two rescue cats (who are now 11 and 14), visiting family (including my 93-year-old grandmother who is still traveling, hiking and skiing!), exploring Richmond's festivals and restaurants, or working on some craft or home project.

Yassmine S., Babysitter in Chester, VA 23831 with 3 years of paid experience

I love spending time with kids and I had great experiences babysitting a lot of kids from different backgrounds and cultures . I’m super active, I like to play games, doing crafts, painting, watch movies with kids along with preparing some snacks or light meals. I would never leave from my shift without cleaning any mess that I caused or anything related to baby/ child care. I have 7 of years of experience, I feel more comfortable working with ages of 12month and up as I love to be a part of your baby’s development journey. I don’t drink or smoke, I can do outdoor activities and parks if there’s a car provided for that purpose or compensation for my gas and mileage in case of using my personal vehicle. I have references to provide. I will run a background check upon request:) or I can provide a previous copy from a recent one.

Chimelle I.

Chimelle  I., Babysitter in Chester, VA 23831 with 25 years of paid experience

Hello Mrs. Chimelle here! I'm 41 years old and a mother of 2 grown children ages 25 and 19 and a wife. I come from a background of child care providers. My grandmother was a childcare provider and owned her own daycare for many years. I learned a lot from a young age and continue to work with families. I started working in Pediatric dentistry 17 years ago where I also learned to build bonds and trust with many children of various ages including those with special needs. I left dentistry 6 years ago and that's when I started with my passion of wanting to provide families with child care. I've worked with many different families over 7 years and the family I've been with the longest has been 7 years. It's truly amazing to see children go over the years and become their own person. To build bonds with them and see them develop any many different ways, we truly become family! I've worked with children from infancy up until teenage years. I provide love, understanding, growth, and trust within my kids I work with. I am CPR and first aid certified as well. Honesty and respect are a huge part of me and what I do and I look forward to hearing from you!
