I’m a current junior at Virginia Tech and have been babysitting since high school. I went to a small Christian school where I also often helped in the nursery and elementary wing. I have been nannying full time during the summers and have experience with ages 18 mo-12 years. I LOVE babysitting and really miss it since coming back to school, so I’m looking to start down here!

Morgan J., Babysitter in Shawsville, VA 24162 with 0 years of paid experience

I have spent the past six summers working as a Beach Lifeguard in Ocean City, MD and Bethany Beach, DE, where I earned my Emergency Medical Responder certification and gained extensive experience supervising children through the Junior Guards camp program. In addition to this, I am a member of Navy ROTC, a role that requires strong responsibility, discipline, and hands‑on leadership of underclassmen — skills that translate directly into providing safe, structured, and reliable care for children. While I haven’t held paid babysitting roles in recent years, I have consistently cared for younger family members and family friends, strengthening my communication, problem‑solving, and child‑engagement abilities. Coming from a family of educators, I’ve learned a great deal about child development, patience, and creating supportive learning environments. I’m very active and love spending time outdoors, and I enjoy encouraging kids to explore, play, and stay active in safe and fun ways.
