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’ve been providing trusted child care since I was 10 years old. I truly adore children and prioritize creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where they feel heard, supported, and free to learn and grow. I am respectful of parents’ wishes and strive to ensure they feel completely comfortable and confident when leaving their children in my care. Building trust and connection comes naturally to me—I am patient, empathetic, and always attentive to a child’s unique needs. Whether it’s finding creative ways to engage them through activities and crafts, helping with new ways to approach chores, reading stories at bedtime, or diffusing tantrums with care and understanding, I approach every situation with warmth and positivity. Friends, family and those on Sittercity have frequently trusted me with childcare (including watching multiple children at the same time, and/or those with special needs), and I am often praised for my attentiveness and ability to build strong relationships with children. If you’re looking for a caring and reliable sitter who will create a fun and enriching experience for your little ones, I’d love to connect! I have a bachelors degree, and have been in the design industry for over 18 years. When I'm not working you'll find me spending time outdoors, snuggling with my two rescue cats (who are now 11 and 14), visiting family (including my 93-year-old grandmother who is still traveling, hiking and skiing!), exploring Richmond's festivals and restaurants, or working on some craft or home project.

Welcome, my name is Ashley! I currently own and operate a single-employee in-home daycare in Henrico County. I have a very intimate group of little ones ranging from 2-5 years old. In my spare time I also offer evening and weekend childcare to little ones outside of my preschool program as well. I‘m currently Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified. I would describe myself to be passionate, responsible, and very reliable. I've worked in childcare for over 7 years professionally. Many years ago I started my career as a daycare infant teacher and have advanced to managing and directing a childcare facility. Though I've loved every single position I've held in childcare, nothing has fulfilled me like owning my own safe space to care for my little ones. I would love to assist you with your child care needs and learn more about your beautiful family! Please let me know if I can provide you with any additional information. I'm happy to provide multiple references and/or schedule a video interview. I look forward to hearing from you !

Chimelle I.
- 25 years paid experience
- 14 miles
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!
