Find experienced babysitters in Colonial Heights, VA

Having a degree in early childhood, for the past twenty years, I have watched infants, toddlers, older children and twins. I find it rewarding to be involved in the toddler years with all the major learning and natural curiosity present during that age. In my previous childcare positions, the child and I have enjoyed visits to the library, park, and daily neighborhood walks. Walks always provide fun opportunities for observation of nature, squirrels, flowers, and outside activities. Keeping schedules and familiar routines has been a priority for me in working with young children. I believe it gives them a healthy sense of expectation and promotes security throughout their day. My past experience and knowledge of infants is an asset. I have cared for several children since birth and even have been called a “baby whisperer” due to my ability to identify their unspoken needs. I was also the “lead teacher” in the birth-to-crawlers nursery every Sunday at a church for several years. Infants are like little sponges picking up new surroundings in their world. I have watched several infants as well as being their first official nanny. I enjoy being an "observer" as they experience their first smiles, tastes, steps and new initial skills. I truly enjoy all children and as they grow, they grow on me!

Hello Mrs. Chimelle here! I'm 44 years old and a mother of 2 grown children ages 27 and 21 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 19 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 8 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!

I started babysitting when I was 14. I went to college but never really wanted to "be" anything but a wife and mother. I life guarded for 3 years in college during the summers. I am married and have 3 children. All girls. They are 19, 17, and 11. We are a Christian family. I am free on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays during the day from 8:30 to around 6:00. I babysit a 6 month old little boy and his 2yr. old sister on Thursdays and Fridays. I prefer to babysit at my own home so that I can greet my 11 yr. old when she comes home after school. I can babysit at your home if I am home by 3:15. I have taught Bible school for numerous years. I home schooled my children through 4th grade. I worked at Mother's Day Out at my church in Tennessee for numerous years on Tuesday mornings. Taking care of children is so rewarding to me. I love kids and I always work with the understanding that when I am with these children, my time is for them. The day is all about them. I want to make sure that your children are treated the way I want my children to be taken care of. I have such a heart for children of all ages. I would probably not do well as a teacher in a classroom because I get so broken hearted over some of the things that children have to deal with. I would love to play with, talk with, and nurture your child or children. As a babysitter, I am called to be a blessing to your child, but I have always found that the children are such a blessing to me.
