We hired Anna to watch our two children (2 and 5) while we were in town for a wedding. She was wonderful! The kids had a lot of fun and loved spending time with her. We felt like our kids were in great hands and were able to enjoy the wedding festivities.

Sophia V., Babysitter in Grottoes, VA 24441 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi, I'm Sophia! I'm 24 years old. I absolutely love children and have been babysitting since I was 11 years old. My professional experience ranges from getting kids on and off the school bus, getting them ready for bed and getting them up in the morning, preparing snacks and meals for them, full-time and overnight care, etc. I have watched a super incredible 4 year old with Downs Syndrome and his 6 month old sister. I nannyed for an awesome 8 year old (whom I watched from ages 5-8) on the autism spectrum. I have also watched twins. Additionally, I have watched an infant with Downs Syndrome, and three siblings under the age of 10. I was a full-time nanny for 3 years for a wonderful infant into toddler stages. I myself also have younger siblings. I love children, and being able to have a positive impact on everyone's life. I do work another job 7-4:30pm, so nowadays I generally have late afternoon and evening/night availabilities, on weekdays (and weekends I am often available all day), so perfect for anyone looking for after-school care and date/self-care nights. Thanks and have a lovely day! :-)

Avery was FANTASTIC! She was incredibly attentive and attuned to our 11 month old daughter. She was also very patient and understanding when our daughter had a difficult day with her naps. Avery has a calming presence and our daughter loved spending her days with her. We hope Avery can help out with our daughter again down the road.

Shelly F., Babysitter in Grottoes, VA 24441 with 28 years of paid experience

Hello to all the new parents who are trying to navigate this very delicate journey of finding the right nanny for you child/ren!! As someone who has worked in child care and has been a parent (foster and adoptive) for over 20 years I completely understand how hard and emotion filled this can be. I hope that I am able to make this journey just a little easier! I have been working with young children since my teens as a babysitter, then as a teacher in several centers and as a nanny throughout college. For the past 22 years I have been working as a Director of various centers in NJ and VA (including my own for 13 years). My favorite age group is infants and toddlers, watching their growth and development day to day is just so amazing! I also love the the relationships I get to build with parents.

Katie  P., Babysitter in Grottoes, VA 24441 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Katie, and I have several years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I began volunteering in my church nursery and childcare programs at the age of 12, which helped me develop a strong foundation in patience, responsibility, and caring for children in a safe and nurturing environment. As the oldest of four siblings, I also naturally grew into a caregiver role at home, helping with daily routines, schoolwork, and supervision. Professionally, I have worked in both a daycare setting and at a resort where I interacted with families and children regularly. Through these experiences, I have worked with children as young as 4 weeks old up to 14 years old. I am comfortable handling a wide range of needs including bottle feeding, diaper changes, playtime activities, homework help, and maintaining structure and routines. I am known for being dependable, calm under pressure, and very attentive to children’s needs. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident. I am currently looking for babysitting or nannying opportunities where I can continue doing what I love, caring for children and supporting families.

Jillie C., Babysitter in Grottoes, VA 24441 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Jillie, currently home from college while I work on transferring schools. I’m a collegiate athlete, a longtime babysitter, and someone who truly loves spending time with kids of all ages. I’ve been babysitting since I was young, especially during summers, and I love finding fun ways to keep kids entertained, engaged, and safe—whether that’s playing games, doing crafts, reading stories, or just letting imagination run wild. Being an athlete has taught me patience, teamwork, and creativity; skills I bring to every babysitting job. I’m energetic, reliable, and love finding ways to make every day exciting for the kids I care for. I’m also passionate about working with children in a bigger way. I’m planning to pursue a career in pediatric occupational therapy. Babysitting isn’t just a job for me; it’s a chance to connect with kids, understand how they think and play, and build supportive relationships. I enjoy helping kids explore, learn, and have fun in ways that also encourage their growth and confidence. I can’t wait to meet your family, get to know your little ones, and make sure they have a safe, happy, and fun experience every time we’re together!
