Find experienced babysitters in Dyke, VA

My first experience in childcare was as camp counselor for kids ages kindergarten through rising 4th grade . I helped make the meals for the campers and I was responsible for leading group meetings and group activities with them including taking them to the pool. I loved being a camp counselor so much I began to babysit for numerous families and I have copies of recommendation letters to give if needed. I began working as a preschool teacher aid in april of 2015 and began as a lead teacher in october of 2015. Since then I have moved on to becoming a private nanny to three amazing children while working part time as a teacher's aide at Old Dominion, I have also become cpr certified and have experience in caring for higher number of children at one time which has equipped me with the ability to think fast on my feet. I love working with children because I am a kid at heart and its fun to see their imaginations at work. Plus my favorite babysitting activities are reading,baking,and cooking.

I have over 17 years working as a full-time Nanny, Household Manager, Family Assistant, Personal Assistant, Executive Assistant, House Sitter, and high-school Volleyball Coach. I was as an EA, Household Manager, and Nanny for a family on a 477-acre farm in Keswick, VA for 3 years. While I was responsible for many different roles, I did my job thoroughly. I helped with light housekeeping for multiple residences, coordinating with housekeeper on schedules, supplies, and specific requests. I prepared cottages on the property for rentals (laundry, buying groceries, light housekeeping).  I ran errands everywhere, including dry cleaning, grocery shopping, gift purchasing, package mailing, etc. I was responsible not only for helping my client run their businesses from in-home and out-of-home offices, but also for maintaining their farm. On a daily to weekly need, I cleaned up debris; cared for pets and farm animals; grocery shopped and prepared dinner; watered plants and flowers; swept porches; organized projects throughout their home and offices; restocked entire households and offices; served as a liaison between staff, etc.; extensive holiday decorating and shopping, including gift wrapping and shipping; wardrobe management; packed/unpacked for business trips and family vacations; vehicle maintenance; etc. I oversaw the daily needs for the family’s child including daily transportation to/from school and activities, coordination and supervision of play dates, attendance at school functions, cooking, and entertainment. In 2017, I relocated to Chicago IL to work as a full-time Nanny/Family Assistant for a very prominent, ultra-wealthy and private family. I was responsible for everything related to the three children I cared for including extensive domestic and international travel and driving, as well as serving as the liaison between the client and our fully staffed home, drafting handwritten correspondence, pet care, cooking, shopping and vehicle maintenance. In 2020, just before the nationwide pandemic hit, I returned to the East Coast, working in Washington, D.C. for the next two years as a full-time nanny with more household assistant responsibilities including helping to care for a newly acquired residential farm property in Virginia. As my time living and working in D.C. came to an end earlier this year, I found myself longing to be back in Charlottesville, VA; a place I have grown to love and miss.
