Hi, I'm Sydney! I have recently relocated to Maryland from Richmond, Virginia. I have my own reliable transportation and am a non smoker. I have been a babysitter professionally for 9 years, focusing on long term families. It is the job I have continuously found my way back to when I try to switch professions. I love being interactive and watching children reach milestones. I have cared for children from 3 month olds to 12 years of age, with experience on caring for multiple children at a given time. Typically I am a long term care provider, but I am also open to short term as well. Experienced in overnight care, as well as weekend care is provided. I have an flexible start date with references on hand to provide if we are a match. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile, i hope to hear from you soon!

Sydney provided temporary nanny help for our 4 month old. She is very experienced, knowledgeable, and always brought very calm energy. Our son was in the middle of an extreme case of reflux, was very fussy and temperamental; Sydney helped us keep him fed and soothed during a very difficult time.

I became a caregiver because I have always had a love for helping others. Through babysitting I love to come up with fun activities to do with the children and watch their imaginations run wild while creating fun and new games. I have been watching children of all ages for the past 5 years and I have made many wonderful connections with the parents and children. I truly see babysitting not so much as a job but as a way to help make any child's day more fun. I am CPR/AED/ First Aid Certified. I am also a nationally certified Patient Care Technician. Along with babysitting, I worked in my churches nursery every Sunday from March 2022-June of 2023, watching children of all ages.

Hey there, I’m Kate! I’m a funny, kind, reliable, & trustworthy 23-year-old that loves children (especially babies)! Not only am I an experienced babysitter/nanny, but I also have about 2 years of experience as an early education teacher in a professional pre-school setting. I’m currently a student at Longwood and am working towards my degree in elementary education! Some things I love to do with kiddos are going for walks, playing outside, going to the pool in the summer, coloring, reading, and learning together. I love getting to be creative, silly, teach children, and develop genuine relationships with kids and their families! I’m pretty much happy to do whatever your kid(s) enjoy! I love pets as I have two dogs of my own. I am currently CPR & first aid certified for children, infants, and adults. I have some experience cooking and understand allergies as my mom and sister have severe food allergies. I am up to date on all my vaccinations and try to be health conscious. I look forward to connecting!!

I am a junior at Randolph-Macon College majoring in accounting. I come from a big, extended family, so caring for children is something I’m very comfortable with. While I have had experience in caring for some of the children in my family in the past, my first (non-family related) paid babysitting was in 2019, and half of 2021 up to 2022 (partial)--2 years total. I like to think of myself as caring and patient, which is why I connect with children so easily. Babysitting has always been fun and never felt like a job! Note: I have multiple certifications of First Aid & CPR, but I’m currently renewing it through my college (as it’s free for me). So, while I do not carry an unexpired, official certificate of these important skills, I have been trained multiple times over the years.

Hi everyone, I'm Samia and i'm 20 years old. I reside in Glen Allen and am currently a full time college student pursuing a degree to work in labor and delivery. I have been babysitting for many years for different families in the military bases I lived on, family members and my younger brother. I work best with 2-3 kids at a time. I can meal prep, do house care alongside the child care, and work comfortably with pets as I have a couple of my own. I am CPR certified and have flexible hours to work around yours. I hope to find a long term family, but I am open to short-term work aswell. Any schedules and policies established beforehand will be upheld and your home/space with be respected. I love outgoing, creative and curious children as I have skills and a personality that would be a perfect match for them. I find immense joy in making a positive impact on their lives. I provide families with reliable childcare. I hope to bring my enthusiasm and care to your family!

My name is Margaret! I am a patient, respectful, dependable and engaging person. I have wanted to work with young children since a young age, having always truly enjoyed caring for them. I did some studies to be a Kindergarten/Elementary school teacher in the UK however over the duration of the course I realized that my passion is to care and provide for children rather than to teach. This lead to the change into nannying. I was a full time nanny for 6 years, both as a nanny to an individual family as well as participating in nanny shares and working for 2 families together. I have worked with children from infant (3 months) to 10 years old. Additionally I have experience in a daycare setting and have worked with up to 8 children at once. I always work with the aim of providing optimal care which nurtures children physically, socially, emotionally and developmentally. I am a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant which allows for additional perspective into gross motor development.
