Find experienced babysitters in Locust Grove, VA

Hi! My name is Juliana. I am a passionate and nurturing babysitter. I am currently in Fairfax and a full-time student at George Mason University, where I balance my studies with my genuine love for working with children and supporting families. I am PCA-certified (Personal Care Aide), which allows me to safely provide attentive care for children who may need additional medical or personal support. I have experience caring for newborns, toddlers, and primary school-aged children, and I take pride in creating a warm, positive environment where kids feel safe, confident, and free to be themselves. As a reliable live-out nanny, I offer flexible, part-time services tailored to your family’s unique schedule and needs. My hourly rate starts at $20, depending on the child’s age, hours, and level of care required. Whether it’s engaging playtime, story time, or homework help, I strive to make every moment both fun and meaningful. I believe every child deserves patience, kindness, and encouragement, and I’m committed to making sure your little ones feel happy, supported, and well cared for. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter who will treat your child with genuine care and attention, I would love to connect and see how I can support your family.

 I have been working with infants and children for the last 10 years and I also have three children of my own. I have my Associate's degree in Psychology and I am continuing my education in hopes to become an Adolescent Clinical Therapist. I am also CPR and First Aid Certified. I love working with kids on a personal level by learning their personality. I use a hands-on approach to gain the trust of both parent and child. Providing childcare isn't just a job, it's accepting to play a large role in a child's life and help guide them as they grow and develop. I love fun and smiles but I also like to promote educational activities appropriate to the child's age (for example going over the alphabet or doing puzzles with a toddler, or practicing tummy time with an infant!) I strive to become not only their babysitter, but one of their best friends. I have a genuine love and passion for kids and I have realized this is my life's calling. I think that providing childcare would be the best job for me while I am continuing my education because it's doing what I love, working in the direction I plan to go with my career and also allows me to keep my son with me while I work, which gives him the opportunity to interact with other children. I have excellent writing and verbal skills, my specialty is drawing and arts & crafts, skilled hider, below average seeker, animal lover, excellent board game player, excellent story time reader and swing pusher, great at cuddling and I know the tickle monster very well, excellent boo-boo kisser, and I may not be the best singer or dancer but that doesn't stop me from putting on a show. I don't mind embarrassing myself for a laugh (well for the kids at least)! It's so easy to make them smile and I absolutely love doing it.

Hi, I’m Sarina. I’m a Marine Corps veteran and Psychology student with several years of hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers. Over the past two years, I’ve worked long-term with two families, primarily caring for children between 6 months and 3 years old. My current position is ending due to the family relocating, and I will be available beginning March 2. I’m confident with infant and toddler routines, including sleep schedules, meal prep, developmental play, outdoor time, and maintaining calm, structured days that help little ones thrive. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment. Families describe me as reliable, communicative, and proactive. I take pride in supporting not only the children, but the overall flow of the household when needed. I’m seeking a position starting in early March and would love to connect to see if we’re a good fit.

Hi, I'm Grace. I just came home from serving 8 months as a missionary and am looking for a part-time job taking care of kiddos. I'm 20 years old and have had plenty of experience with childcare. I worked 3 years at After School Care for Holy Cross Academy and for 2 years at Fredericksburg Academy summer camps. I have babysat a wide age range of kids over the years (infant to middle school). I also occasionally look after my siblings and have helped them with their schooling at home. And I am currently pursuing a career in Montessori school teaching. I love taking care of children because I feel like they always give us a new perspective on the world around us, approaching it with such genuine awe. I love watching them learn and grow, seeing the light bulbs go off within their minds at discovering something new. I also enjoy seeing their talents and giving them a space to pursue them. I personally love art, music, baking, and exploring the outdoors, so I appreciate the ability to share that with the children I care for.

Hello! Hello! I’m the mom of an 8-year-old daughter and have about 20 years of experience working with children from birth through age 14 as a nanny, substitute teacher, preschool teacher, and pediatric care attendant. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and am currently a first-year nursing student. I’m available for occasional or regular babysitting. Because I’m in nursing school, my availability may change from semester to semester, however, I’m flexible and can often accommodate additional hours when needed. I am CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) certified and have experience with pediatric trach and G-tube care and supporting non-verbal or limited-verbal children. I love planning fun, engaging activities like art, science projects, sensory play, reading, and nature walks. I'm comfortable around all kinds of (friendly) pets.

I am a nurturing and reliable babysitter with several years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants and babies to school-aged children. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have extensive experience working with children with autism, behavioral and mental health needs, and those with trauma backgrounds. I provide patient, compassionate care while creating a safe, supportive, and structured environment where children can thrive.

I’m a dedicated and nurturing caregiver with a strong passion for working with infants. I focus on creating a safe, comforting environment where babies can grow, develop, and feel secure. Certified in First Aid and CPR, I prioritize their safety at all times. I also build strong relationships with both the infants and their families, offering individualized care that meets each child’s needs. My goal is to provide a calm and loving atmosphere where they feel supported and cherished. As my native language is Spanish, I can introduce babies to the language early on, which is a wonderful added benefit for families interested in bilingual exposure.

I am ambitious and creative but disciplined and hardworking. I absolutely love working with children and planning such fun activities while we wait for you to come home! One thing about me that sets me apart from others is that I will not just sit your child in front of the TV. Everyday will be fun filled and something to look forward too!
