Hello! I started working with kids at a young age, special needs at that, & from there I’ve grown to love working with them & seeing them grow up, improve on their skills, etc. After I graduated high school I worked at elementary school for almost about 3 years & it was the best time I had. I worked in a contained classroom with children with disabilities but also with gen ed. As I’ve said before, it is an overall great feeling to get to meet new kids & learn of their amazing personalities!

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!

I became a caregiver because I'm passionate about the growth and development of children. I believe in the importance of play and learning, and I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where kids can thrive. I'm patient, calm, and creative, and I love playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. I'm working on getting my CPR certification renewed, I was certified in high school I still do know how to do CPR. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. I believe in open communication with parents, and I provide regular updates on their child's day. I'm confident that I can provide a reliable and supportive child care option for families.

Daija J.
- 6 years paid experience

My name is Da’Ija Jackson, and I have over 10 years of child care experience. I’m 23 years old, and caring for children has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. Even as a young girl, I loved helping with babies—holding them, changing diapers (even when I didn’t fully know how!), and supporting my family by caring for my younger siblings and cousins. That passion only grew over time. When I was in daycare myself, I would always want to help out in the younger classrooms. Later, during high school, I had the opportunity to work in our school’s daycare program that supported teen parents. I worked there during both my 11th and 12th grade years, gaining valuable hands-on experience serving children from 6 weeks to two years old. After graduating, I worked at a preschool for four years, where I deepened my understanding of early childhood development. During my time there, I served as lead teacher in the one-year-old, two-year-old, and three-year-old classrooms, leading daily activities, managing routines, and supporting each child’s growth and development with lesson planning. I then joined back with the child care program at Richmond Public Schools. Currently, I’m working toward earning my Child Development Associate (CDA) credential to further my professional development in early childhood education. In addition to my full-time work, I also provide babysitting services for former students and their families, offering trusted and familiar care. I’m passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and educational environments where children can grow, explore, and thrive.
