Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile. I’m Franni and I have lived in Hampton Roads all my life. One might say I’m a Jane of all trades; I love the outdoors, yoga, writing poetry, creating videos, and interior design and architecture. Some of these passions wax and wane with the seasons, but one that has stuck with me through the years is my love for children. The first time I babysat, I accompanied my older cousin (I was only 12 years old). Watching her prepare another child’s lunch and come up with fun, educational activities made me realize I wanted to be a nanny someday. Once I entered high school, I consistently held babysitting jobs, often with military families in my area. My senior year, I had an internship with John B. Dey Elementary working with third graders. Throughout college I had babysitting jobs while I also assisted first Read more and second graders with Language Arts at Windsor Oaks Elementary school. Finally, more recently, I was an Inclusion specialist for the City of Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation. Here, I worked with children of all ages, ranging from preschool to middle school, helping to create inclusive activities for children with special needs. I have experience with children diagnosed with autism, Down’s syndrome, and ADHD, to name a few. Everything I do, I do with a passion to spread more love and kindness in the world, and I hope you can trust me to extend this love to your family.

Frances helped raise my twin boys from infancy through preschool. She was kind, attentive, and treated our children as if they were her own. She came up with activities that helped our boys learn, and took them on outings. She kept our routines and was very patient even when it wasn’t easy. She really became part of the family.
