Amaya P., Babysitter in Petersburg, VA 23803 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello! I started working with kids at a young age, special needs at that, & from there I’ve grown to love working with them & seeing them grow up, improve on their skills, etc. After I graduated high school I worked at elementary school for almost about 3 years & it was the best time I had. I worked in a contained classroom with children with disabilities but also with gen ed. As I’ve said before, it is an overall great feeling to get to meet new kids & learn of their amazing personalities!

Shay A., Babysitter in Petersburg, VA 23803 with 2 years of paid experience

My love for children began when I raised 5 siblings on my own. During those years, learned a lot about myself and my compassion for children. I then began spending my study halls and lunches in the special ed classroom in middle school and even through out some of high school learning how diverse children are and different creative ways to help them grow. My junior year, i applied to work at a day care that was through the school and i worked there until i graduated. After i graduated i started attending Morrisville state college, studying early childhood and development hoping to graduate with my bachelors in special education.

Hi there! I am Ka’Mya, a college student at Virginia State University. I am a political science major with a minor in history, interested in the teaching field as a career choice. My childcare experience dates back to when I was a senior in high school in 2023 when I worked as a daycare teacher to children ages 0-12 years old. During the summer I am a recreation leader for children ages 5-12 years old. I love working with children because I love watching them grow through the amount of time we spend together, whether that is a few months or years. I am CPR and First Aid certified, as well as I have a certification in teaching in a daycare. I’m nurturing, patient, and I love fun! I also have experience working with children on the spectrum.
