Hi! My name is Julia Schneider, and I am passionate about helping children explore their surroundings and grow into their own. I am educated in early childhood development, and believe it is extremely important to enable a child the freedom to learn in every opportunity. I have been caring for children for 10 years, and professionally for the past 6. I have worked and cared for children of all ages and needs. I have experience, and am comfortable working with pets. I am able to help in any way around the house, as well as preparing food and helping with school work. I am CPR certified, as well have experience in non-emergency first aide needs. Apart from children, I am very passionate about animals and the outdoors. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, and 4 horses who I care for everyday and love dearly! I am looking forward being a positive role model for your child, and encouraging their curiosity to discover the world around them!

I am from the NoVa area and attending college at Virginia Tech as a freshman in engineering. I love children and am looking for a way to get involved here as I did at home. I started out volunteering at a church nursery when I was 8 years old and babysitting with my older sister when I was 11 years old. More recently (since about age 14- when I was Red Cross certified), I have been babysitting for a few families with children ages 0 months- 13 years on a semi-regular basis.

My name is Eman. I am an 20-year-old college student at Virginia Tech. I am a cheerful, positive, and respectful person. I enjoy working with children of all ages and have experience caring for children with special needs. I have 3 years of paid babysitting experience during which I was an after-school sitter for 2 different families for children from 3 years old to twelve years old. I also previously worked at a math summer camp so I am a great tutor and would love to offer my help. Babysitting is something I love doing because every day is something new and it's amazing being part of a child learning and growing as a person.

Hi! My name is Mallie Edwards! I love being around kids. I have been a babysitter for about 3 years now! I also substitute at an Elementary school and I work at a summer program with children! I love children and them being okay is my top priority. I would love to work with any children.

I'm a sophomore at Virginia Tech, majoring in psychology! I have been babysitting and nannying for various families in my hometown for 5 years now, and I love being around kids and caring for children of all ages. Most of my jobs have been for families in my neighborhood and community. Although I have not worked professionally for a babysitting agency in the past, I am well-qualified and experienced to care for children. I am Red Cross certified and have completed CPR training, so you can be confident knowing your child will be safe under my care. This past summer, I spent time nannying for two separate families, one with a 10-year-old and one with a 10-month-old, so I have a wide range of skills when it comes to all ages. I also have experience tutoring children and can offer my skills to help with homework or projects. When I am babysitting, I love going outside and enjoying nature with the kids, allowing them to explore and grow their creativity and adventurous sides.

Hello, my name is Kimberly Doremus. My Profile says I am currently in Virginia, however I just moved to the Melbourne area! I would like to first thank you for taking the time to read my bio. I have been living in the SouthWest Virginia area for most of my life and am currently settling into the area! A little about me, I worked at a local daycare in Radford VA called Grace A Child, where I was the preschool teacher for two years. Some of the responsibilities I had as being the preschool teacher were potty training, lesson planning/ activities, evaluating children and communicating with families and providing a safe and comforting space for children. After leaving Grace A Child I began working at a childcare center in Blacksburg VA called Rainbow Riders with two year olds for close to two years where I started babysitting for about ten different families from weekend to weekend. I provided care for birthday party help, date nights, parents working on weekends and parents running errands with families of one to three children ranging from a year and a half to ten years old. Many families have said I do a great job at keeping their child safe, happy, calm and they looked forward to seeing me when I am scheduled to come care for them. I truly love caring for children and providing a safe comfortable space for them to explore the interests they have and grow self confidence in themselves. I enjoy doing crafts with children to help with expression and fine motor skills, dance parties and obstacle courses to help with gross motor skills, reading stories to help with language skills, dramatic play to help with social/ emotional skills and more. I am CPR and First Aid certified along with a handful of other certifications through Virginia that I can provide if needed along with references through families I have worked for. In my free time I enjoy paddle boarding with my dog, exploring new trails, spending time with my boyfriend of seven years and going to the beach. I hope to hear from you soon!
