I started babysitting when I was 14. I went to college but never really wanted to "be" anything but a wife and mother. I life guarded for 3 years in college during the summers. I am married and have 3 children. All girls. They are 19, 17, and 11. We are a Christian family. I am free on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays during the day from 8:30 to around 6:00. I babysit a 6 month old little boy and his 2yr. old sister on Thursdays and Fridays. I prefer to babysit at my own home so that I can greet my 11 yr. old when she comes home after school. I can babysit at your home if I am home by 3:15. I have taught Bible school for numerous years. I home schooled my children through 4th grade. I worked at Mother's Day Out at my church in Tennessee for numerous years on Tuesday mornings. Taking care of children is so rewarding to me. I love kids and I always work with the understanding that when I am with these children, my time is for them. The day is all about them. I want to make sure that your children are treated the way I want my children to be taken care of. I have such a heart for children of all ages. I would probably not do well as a teacher in a classroom because I get so broken hearted over some of the things that children have to deal with. I would love to play with, talk with, and nurture your child or children. As a babysitter, I am called to be a blessing to your child, but I have always found that the children are such a blessing to me.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our childcare experience. From the very beginning, it was clear that our daughter was loved, cared for, and treated like family! Kris is reliable, trustworthy, and attentive, giving us complete peace of mind while we were at work. More importantly, she genuinely cared for the children in her care and created a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where they could thrive. Our daughter adored “Ms. Krissy” and looked forward to every day she spent there. As a parent, there is peace of mind knowing your child feels happy, secure, and loved when you are away. If you are looking for someone who is kind, patient, dependable, and truly gifted with children, we would wholeheartedly recommend Kris! We will always be grateful for the love and care she showed our family during such an important season of our daughter's life. My daughter’s review was: 1,000/10! ⭐️ ?

Having a degree in early childhood, for the past twenty years, I have watched infants, toddlers, older children and twins. I find it rewarding to be involved in the toddler years with all the major learning and natural curiosity present during that age. In my previous childcare positions, the child and I have enjoyed visits to the library, park, and daily neighborhood walks. Walks always provide fun opportunities for observation of nature, squirrels, flowers, and outside activities. Keeping schedules and familiar routines has been a priority for me in working with young children. I believe it gives them a healthy sense of expectation and promotes security throughout their day. My past experience and knowledge of infants is an asset. I have cared for several children since birth and even have been called a “baby whisperer” due to my ability to identify their unspoken needs. I was also the “lead teacher” in the birth-to-crawlers nursery every Sunday at a church for several years. Infants are like little sponges picking up new surroundings in their world. I have watched several infants as well as being their first official nanny. I enjoy being an "observer" as they experience their first smiles, tastes, steps and new initial skills. I truly enjoy all children and as they grow, they grow on me!

I am so happy to recommend Linda (aka. Mrs. G). She has been a wonderful nanny for our 4 yr old daughter for the last year. She is absolutely reliable. I never had to worry about her being on time to pick up my daughter. She showed lots of creativity, fun and energy, playing games, doing crafts projects, working on puzzles, among lots of others. She went on walks, outings to the pool or to Lewis Ginter Garden. Our daughter had fun and was happy and looked after when I got home. One of the best things about working with Mrs. G is that she is just a great person. She is thoughtful and kind. She focuses on doing good deeds and is a wonderful role model. The only reason we are making a change at this point (because Mrs. G has been wonderful and I am sad to make a change) is that my mother and mother-in-law are taking over the responsibility of watching Isabella. Really, I cannot speak highly enough about Mrs. G. She is great! Please feel free to contact me if needed.

I’ve been caring for kids since I was young, starting as the neighborhood babysitter and growing up as the oldest of three girls. Working with children has always been something I genuinely love! Professionally, I’m a Physician Assistant in Rheumatology. While earning my master’s degree and studying for my board exams, I worked as a babysitter, substitute teacher, tutor, and in both infant and preschool classrooms at a daycare. I love helping kids explore their creativity through crafts, games, and imaginative play. One of my favorite things is watching them discover new interests and share their passions. I’m also very comfortable with pets, I have a dog and three cats of my own! A few fun facts about me: I was a competitive Irish dancer, managed sport club programs during undergrad, love the TV show Survivor, and enjoy strategy board games. I strive to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where kids can have fun, learn, and feel supported. Nights with babysitters were always fun special occasions for me as a child and I hope to create the same lasting memories for your children.

Hello families! My name is Emelin and I am a current VCU student studying to become a pediatric dentist. I’ve always loved working with children. I think childhood always paved the way for the children’s future and it’s the time on their life where they learn so much and have to hav a good support system. I worked as a pediatric dental assistant for over 3 years and managed to get experience helping children of all ages with dental trauma, dental anxiety, and even managing emotions throughout their visits. I also currently work as a daycare teacher assistant. I manage to take care of children throughout their days along worth helping them develop on their stepping stone skills. I am CPR certified as well as first aid. I do have a physical address in Carson but I currently work in Midlothian area so driving 40+ miles is nothing new to me feel free to ask any further questions😊

I became a caregiver because I'm passionate about the growth and development of children. I believe in the importance of play and learning, and I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where kids can thrive. I'm patient, calm, and creative, and I love playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. I'm working on getting my CPR certification renewed, I was certified in high school I still do know how to do CPR. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. I believe in open communication with parents, and I provide regular updates on their child's day. I'm confident that I can provide a reliable and supportive child care option for families.
