Hi! My name is Riley, I am 19 years old I am from Powhatan VA and I am looking for a full-time nanny job. I have worked as a lead teacher in two schools and I’m looking for a change! I am willing to work weekends and late nights also. I am great with kids of all ages but I’ve mostly worked with infants-5 y/o! I have been in childcare since I was 15 years old and love what I do! I can help with homework, dinner, diaper changes, bedtime, cleaning etc. I’m also experienced in potty training and special needs care! I am CPR certified, and have done 45 hours of childcare training. I have my own car that can sit 4 people. Also I am comfortable with animals and would love to dog sit if it’s ever needed! I look forward to hearing back from you, I hope I can help!

I love spending time with kids and I had great experiences babysitting a lot of kids from different backgrounds and cultures . I’m super active, I like to play games, doing crafts, painting, watch movies with kids along with preparing some snacks or light meals. I would never leave from my shift without cleaning any mess that I caused or anything related to baby/ child care. I have 7 of years of experience, I feel more comfortable working with ages of 12month and up as I love to be a part of your baby’s development journey. I don’t drink or smoke, I can do outdoor activities and parks if there’s a car provided for that purpose or compensation for my gas and mileage in case of using my personal vehicle. I have references to provide. I will run a background check upon request:) or I can provide a previous copy from a recent one.

Hi I'm Emily Edwards in 18 years old. I just finished my freshman year at Old Dominion University. I love working with children. Last summer I worked at summer camp/ daycare and it was so much fun. Playing with the kids and getting to know them was the best part. Also making sure they were safe and having fun. I also babysit my cousins and other kids in their neighborhood time to time.

Hi! I'm the eldest of four kids and home schooled for most of my K-12 education so family time is very important to me. I'm a FAA private and sUAS drone pilot so I'm very aviation oriented. I also love taking pictures of landscapes and nature so I'm outside exploring most of the time. Sharing my interests with your family sounds like an absolute blast and would be thrilled to get the opportunity! I’m currently looking for occasional and one time babysitting gigs. Let me know how I can help! Thank you!

I have been a nanny for 26 years. I absolutely love what I do! Being with little ones, playing with them, learning new things together, being there for the long term, as they grow up, loving, and, nurturing them, is very rewarding to me. I am loving, caring, patient, trustworthy, and, dependable. I am currently working for a family that I have been with for 6.5 years. Sadly, my position will be ending soon. So, it's time to meet a new family. I have excellent references. Thanks for viewing my profile.

Hello! I am a mother of three children, a 24-year-old daughter and twin boys who are 20. My experience includes working with children in many capacities since I was 12 years old. I started out babysitting and have been a lifeguard, swim coach, swim lesson instructor, pre-school teacher, nanny, tutor, and a VA licensed special education teacher. I was a special education teacher in the elementary and high school setting from 2008-2017 in Powhatan County. Since 2020, I have taken care of 3 infants long term until they were placed in daycare at 12 months. I currently take care of a 3-year-old little boy and a 6-year-old girl on Tuesdays/Thursdays. I have been with them since January 2024. On Mondays/Wednesdays, I care for a 9-month-old that I began watching in January. I hope to find a family that needs a reliable, loving, patient, and experienced nanny to join their family. I adore babies and love working with children of all ages and helping them thrive. My current families are transitioning to daycare. On August 18th, I will be available Mondays/Wednesdays/Fridays. Come September 1st, I will be available full time. Please reach out if you need care!

Hey everyone! My name is Yani. I am 18 years old currently completing my second year of college (graduated high school at 16) working my way to being a pediatrician! Due to having two military parents, I grew up taking care of my younger siblings and cousins so I am very experienced with it! I babysat for neighbors in high school and each child I took care of I am still in contact with today! With my huge heart I can't help but treat your children like family. Some additional experience includes taking care of infants at a church during my first year of high school. I'm excited to meet you and hope I can become a part of your family too! I also have a car in case you need me to run any errands and I do NOT smoke whatsoever!
