Find experienced babysitters in Stephens City, VA

Greetings Parents and Guardians, If you’re reading this, it means you are looking for a: trustworthy, experienced, caring, fun-loving, and safe babysitter for your most precious part of your life-your child(ren). I started babysitting when I was 10 and just kept going. I babysat all through college and even during my career as a teacher. I have worked with children in three ways: babysitting, tutoring, and being an elementary school teacher and media specialist. I even taught at the graduate school level which was very interesting and entertaining as the adults complained more about homework than my fifth graders! I enjoy children and I respect their idiosyncrasies and personalities. With this in mind, I have experience with children who are gifted and talented and as well as those who are on the autism spectrum. Not every babysitter has that experience nor is comfortable with children on the spectrum or gifted. I enjoy doing crafts and especially baking with the children I babysit. My pizza parties are very popular! It’s important we have fun together but also learn life skills in the process. I adore reading to children and believe that reading should bookend our day together. Additionally, if you have pets—that’s wonderful! I adore cats and dogs and find their presence in a family so warm and fun. Certainly, my bio has you excited to book and meet me! I can’t wait to meet your children! So contact me to schedule a meeting with you and your family. I look forward to adding your child(ren) to my babysitting schedule.

My varied background with children of all ages, and my education provide a wealth of experience and knowledge that will enrich any home. In the past, I have been a nursery school teacher, provided childcare in my own home, was co-director of an elementary age after school program and summer day camp, and I was Christian Education Director at two churches, teaching children of all ages and multi-age groups. I homeschooled my two boys for 10 years. Currently, I am a professional pastel artist, and have taught pastel art classes to elementary age children. My educational background is an MA In Marriage, Family and Child Counseling, with a special emphasis on counseling with children. I am in good heath and am energetic. I enjoy creating an atmosphere of fun, easily engaging with children on their level. I love sharing my excitement for life with children, and also creating a peaceful, nurturing environment where they can feel secure. I can assist with all daily activities, supporting the care of your children in your home, and can also help with tutoring and teaching. It would be a great privilege and blessing to walk alongside you, assisting you in caring for your children.

My name is Ellie Aiello and I am a current English teacher with a Master’s degree in education for grades 6-12. I have been babysitting intermittently for over four years with a two year break for part of college. In my experience I have cared for many ages of children from infants up to 12/13 year olds, with the most children I have cared for at one time being 4. I previously worked at a before and after school daycare for groups of children where I cared for children ranging from kindergarten to eighth grade. In all cases I have worked with children with a variety of needs and requirements as well. Along with years of babysitting on and off, throughout my college and teaching career I have worked with students from 6th grade (11/12) up to 12th (17/18) in both a tutoring and teaching capacity. My general availability is for the remaining summer break (until early August) with most other availability being on the weekend. I have my own vehicle, I am CPR and AED certified, and if you have any other questions, please feel free to ask!

I am a college student, majoring in early education, who has 5 years of experience in babysitting children 3 months to 12 years, including children with special needs. I love creating fun, engaging activities like crafts, outdoor play, and story time, while always keeping safety as my top priority. I'm CPR and First Aid certified. I am available evenings and weekends, as well as some weekdays. I’m also happy to help with homework, meal prep, and light tidying up.

I've been a stay-at-home mom for about 30 years. In that time, I've raised my four children and two step-children, as well as two of my grandchildren. When my kids were younger, I provided childcare in my own home. I cared for most of these children for several years, including triplets for over two years from ages 4-6, two infants from a few weeks old to preschool age, and other infants and toddlers for shorter time periods. I also worked for a few years with elementary age students as a part-time cafeteria hostess in my child's school. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to provide some transportation. I love kids and I am young enough to still have fun with them! If you are looking for a strict, by-the-book nanny then I'm not the one for you. However, If you're looking for someone to genuinely care for your kids, then I can be what you're looking for.

Hi! I’m Abigail — a dedicated and experienced caregiver with a true passion for helping children learn, grow, and feel supported. I’ve been babysitting for over 7 years and have 2 years of nannying experience, providing reliable, attentive care to families with children of all ages. I’ve worked with babies through high schoolers, adapting to each developmental stage and individual need. I’ve also served as a camp counselor and an assistant preschool aide, giving me strong skills in group management, early childhood learning, and creating structured, fun activities. I also work as a Disney princess for children’s events, which has strengthened my creativity, patience, and ability to make kids feel comfortable, joyful, and valued. In addition, I’ve worked with both children and adults on the spectrum and have experience supporting individuals with a range of intellectual and developmental differences. This experience—along with shadowing in music therapy clinics—has helped me develop tools for sensory regulation, communication support, emotional expression, and individualized engagement. I am CPR-trained, and safety is always my top priority. Currently, I’m a college student studying Music Therapy and Psychology, which allows me to approach caregiving with both compassion and a strong understanding of developmental and behavioral needs. Families describe me as patient, creative, responsible, and truly caring. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where every child feels understood and encouraged. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, warm, and engaging care for your child!
