Christa did a great job. We needed short term child care on short notice. Christa responded quickly to us, called us, and provided additional details on the weekend before we needed child care. Our child enjoyed her time with Christa and talked non-stop about her time there.

Deborah P., Babysitter in Virginia Beach, VA 23464 with 40 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Deborah. I am 70 years young and love working with children. For the last three years, I worked for a phenomenal military family. They were reassigned to another state, and moved in June. They graciously posted a letter of reference on this sire. After they left, I accepted a part time position over the summer, and have recently decided to continue working with this family. For personal reasons, I felt the need to work less hours, and be closer to home and family. My availability will now be updated for occasional nights and weekends. I am an experienced childcare provider and have previously worked long term, and short, for a variety of families. I have a fun sense of humor. I am honest, flexible, responsible, and have an excellent work ethic.  I seldom, if ever, miss work. I taught school for eighteen years. I have always cared for children/senior citizens nights, weekends, and long term. I have also stayed with children overnight, for their families to go on work trips or a weekend away. I have additional references and letters of referral I will provide at the time of an interview. I do need to update my CPR and First Aid, but have been certified many times over the years. I have also passed many background checks and am willing for families to run another. I so appreciate your interest and look forward to speaking with you... Sincerely, Deborah

Deborah started working with us when our first daughter was 4 month old. She remained with our family for 3 years during which we welcomed two more babies. We don’t have any local family and my husband travels a lot for work so she became our life line. Deborah is warm, knowledgeable, trustworthy, reliable, and loyal. We have demanding work schedules and she was always there for us - early mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. She even relocated out of state with us for a month when we had to move to be by childrens hospital of philadelphia to navigate health issues with one of our children. Never once did we have to worry about our children when they were in her care. Not only did she nurture our children but she even made sure our plants didn’t die when I was too overwhelmed to water them. She would help me keep the house running by doing kids’ laundry and ensuring I never ran out of diapers or formula, always reminding me when we were running low. Deborah is kind hearted and an endless source of puns. This reference doesn’t do justice for everything she did for our family. She will be missed deeply by us.

Karla R., Babysitter in Virginia Beach, VA 23464 with 14 years of paid experience

Hello parents! 😁 I’m a proud mother of five children, three ladies and two fellas, ages 20 to 28. In 2022, I became a Grammy to each a girl and a boy and another grandson came along in 2024. Twelve years ago, I earned a Master’s degree in Education and have over seven years of teaching experience in public education at both the high school and middle school levels. In my early years of motherhood, I operated in-home daycares for infants to pre-school aged children. I have taught and assisted many times in church Sunday School classes (nursery to high school) and have led and assisted with Vacation Bible School (nursery to high school). I have also led and assisted with youth groups and activities to include attending week-long summer camps and weekend retreats. I’m a divorcee of a retired serviceman. For those military families reviewing my profile, I’m very familiar with life in the military and the challenges that are presented along the journey. Thank you for your dedication and service! Needless to say, I have a genuine love for children of all ages and enjoy teaching and nurturing them; helping each one grow and learn to be the unique person they are created to be. Activities I take pleasure in are walking, reading, crafting, healthy eating, spending time in the kitchen and listening to music (dancing to the music, as well, even if someone is watching!). These are also some of the things I like to do with children, and of course, encouraging them to find and pursue their own interests and participating along with them. Life is certainly meant to be enjoyed, but there are times the fun might need to wait. You can be assured that your children will be accountable for their personal responsibilities (when applicable) like chores and homework (which I’m more than willing to assist), but who says these things can’t be fun? It’s all about perspective and that’s what I hope to instill in your children should you give me the opportunity. I appreciate the time you have taken to review my profile!

Karla was amazing with our 10mo old, calm, nurturing and our stranger anxiety riddled baby didn’t even cry! First time parents getting a babysitter for the first time and it couldn’t have gone any better! She was so kind and patient and really down to earth. Can’t wait to work with her again!

Meka B., Babysitter in Virginia Beach, VA 23464 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Meka. Your child can call me MS. MEKA. I use to be a full time Child Care Provider years ago, but due to daily pain I could not do it full time anymore. I still love helping parents out in anyway that I can along with teaching & adding structure. I also know it’s hard to find quality care and people you trust and those who will be an advocate for your child.. (children in general). I am a mother of 3... ages 29, 25 & 23. I have bonus children too…. Also my oldest just had a little precious one(My grand age 3). I was home with them majority of their early childhood & teen years being able to prepare them for school, helping with school work, taking them to their activities, taking them to school, and making sure they completed high school and/ or college...(Honor grad/Cum Laude grad & many meetings/support for my child who has Dyslexia). I do believe “Learning starts at home”. I was a single mom most of that time. There were many times, I had to get 3 kids to 3 different events at the same time, but parents make a way & God will put the right people in your path to help you. Please let me know if I can be any assistance to you or your family. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Also, I am First Aid/CPR Certified & I have a background check through the state!! Along with completed requirements for Water Safety for Parents & Caregivers. Thank you... have a blessed day!

Miss Meka is amazing. I wouldn’t have rather had any other sitter for my 9 month old. She’s extremely knowledgeable when it comes to infants and their milestones. I have no complaints whatsoever!

Leah was amazing! We had her babysit four kids (ages 4 - 7) and she did a great job, taking care of them, playing games, and keeping them safe. Would definitely hire again and thank you Leah!

An adult, responsible Gramma/mother that loves children! I started babysitting at the age of 11 for infants and young children.  I have a college background in early childhood education. I have been AED/CPR certified by the American Heart Association, pending renewal. I have many years of mothering experience with children from infant to teen.  I have worked a little with special needs but do not have professional training, but I am willing and have the patience. I am an nurturing, organized, mature, neat, tidy, responsible, caring, loving, creative "cool" mom, and will watch your children as if they were my own.  I am artsy, fun but firm, I have my own transportation, and am available on short notice. I have a cleared background check with my current employer, with my daughter's school district, and local youth recreational sports league. I don't have a curfew and can stay out late on weeknights!  I also love animals, so your pets will feel safe with me too!  You can be assured your children will be well cared for while you are away.  I can cook, and am also willing to help with light housekeeping. Thanks for reading!

Jean was great! My 6 month old is definitely a mama's girl, and has only been with a sitter once before, so I was a little nervous to see how she would do with out me, and Jean did wonderful. My 11 year old son was happy too. They watched movies and had popcorn. Needless to say, I would feel very comfortable having her watch the kiddos again.

Bonita watched our daughter for a weekend and was exceptional. Our daughter is special needs and it can be challenging to meet her needs, as she is delayed in her communication skills, but Bonita made sure she was happy and well taken care of. Additionally, I was impressed by her punctuality- came 20 minutes early so that we would have time to go over a few things before leaving. Wonderful sitter!

I have been a licensed childcare provider for 33 years, 15 years in Virginia Beach, licensed in New York for 17 years prior, and currently hold a licensed in Chesapeake. I am a mother of four (34,32,25,23) and a grand to one (4). I homeschooled my two youngest. I am bilingual and can teach Spanish or English. I focus on providing a smooth transition from home to school, believing children should not have to adapt to a school setting too early. I am a huge fan of learning through play.
