My name is Lelia, and I have been working with kids as a foster parent for 38 years. I've adopted 7 kids, and worked with my own daycare for 15 years. I'm retired, and I feel like I could still do so much more. I enjoy being with children and teaching them.

Hello! Hello! I’m the mom of a 7-year-old daughter and have nearly 20 years of experience working with children from birth through age 14 as a nanny, substitute teacher, preschool teacher, and pediatric care attendant. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and am currently a first-year nursing student. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting, back-up care, date nights, and can provide overnight care on select weekends. Because I’m in nursing school, my availability may change from semester to semester, however, I’m flexible and can often accommodate additional hours when needed. I am CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) certified and have experience with pediatric trach and G-tube care and supporting non-verbal or limited-verbal children. I love planning fun, engaging activities like art, science projects, sensory play, reading, and nature walks. Pets, including cats, friendly dogs, reptiles, etc. are all fine with me. I also have experience working through Consumer Direct Care Network (CDCN) for families using consumer-directed care services. Please feel free to reach out with questions!

I am ambitious and creative but disciplined and hardworking. I absolutely love working with children and planning such fun activities while we wait for you to come home! One thing about me that sets me apart from others is that I will not just sit your child in front of the TV. Everyday will be fun filled and something to look forward too!

Hi! My name is Princess , and I love working with children and helping families feel confident that their kids are safe, happy, and cared for. I have several years of childcare experience, including caring for a child in their home over the years and working at a summer camp program called Rec-Pac. At Rec-Pac, I was responsible for supervising groups of 9–12 children, planning activities, ensuring everyone was safe, and making sure their needs were met throughout the day. I am patient, dependable, and enjoy creating a fun and positive environment for children of all ages. I understand the importance of communication with parents and always strive to provide the best care possible. Whether it’s helping with activities, preparing snacks, or keeping children engaged and safe, I am dedicated to making every family feel comfortable and supported.

Dear Family, My name is Rachel Bacon, and I am a graduate of Old Dominion University with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Psychology. I was excited to see your post and would love the opportunity to tell you about myself and the skill set I contribute to the workplace. Working with children has always been a passion of mine. I have been babysitting since middle school and began working in schools and childcare settings at age 16. Over the years, I have gained experience in Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and Chesapeake schools, as well as private preschool programs. Since graduating college, I have worked as a lead teacher with children ranging from 3 months to 4½ years old, creating engaging learning experiences while maintaining a safe, nurturing, and organized environment. My dedication to education began early in my life. As a student at Bayside High School, I participated in Virginia Teachers for Tomorrow, a program designed to foster interest and understanding of the teaching profession. During my senior year, I was recognized by Virginia Beach City Public Schools as an Outstanding Future Educator and received a guaranteed teaching contract—an honor awarded to only a select group of students each year. I graduated with both Honors and Advanced Diplomas and have continued building my skills through hands-on experience with infants through elementary-aged children. Beyond my professional experience, I am a naturally caring, patient, and bubbly person who genuinely enjoys helping children learn and grow through play, exploration, and meaningful experiences. I believe many of these qualities come from the wonderful family and role models who helped shape me into the person I am today. Families often describe me as dependable, organized, energetic, and someone who brings a warm smile wherever I go. A little about me personally: I have lived in Virginia Beach my entire life and enjoy spending time with family and friends, being outdoors, taking long walks, practicing yoga, organizing spaces, baking, and continuing to learn about healthy living. I love creating positive connections with others and bringing enthusiasm and kindness into everything I do comes naturally. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your family and discuss how my experience and passion for working with children could be a great fit for your family’s needs.

Hi! I’m a caring, patient, and reliable sitter with years of paid child care experience. I enjoy helping children feel safe, happy, and understood while keeping their routine on track. I have experience with toddlers, school-age kids, and older children, including playtime, meals, homework help, and bedtime routines. I’m responsible, creative, and comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I love creating a fun, calm environment where kids can be themselves and parents can feel confident their children are in good hands.

I’m Claire, and I am currently working as a nanny but unfortunately my time will be ending In September of 2022 since the child I care for will be starting pre school. A little bit about me, I am 20 years old, I worked at a daycare before I decided to pursue my nanny career for a year. I graduated from Patrick Henry high school in 2019. I have s very outgoing and bubbly personality. I am always looking for super fun and educational adventures with the children I care for! I love going on walks and being outside. I would like to work for a family that is laid back and works away from home as it makes it easier on me to care for the child. It will also be easier for the child to get to know me and for me to get to know them! I hope you can consider me and if not I wish you the best on your nanny hunt!!

My name is Margaret! I am a patient, respectful, dependable and engaging person. I have wanted to work with young children since a young age, having always truly enjoyed caring for them. I did some studies to be a Kindergarten/Elementary school teacher in the UK however over the duration of the course I realized that my passion is to care and provide for children rather than to teach. This lead to the change into nannying. I was a full time nanny for 6 years, both as a nanny to an individual family as well as participating in nanny shares and working for 2 families together. I have worked with children from infant (3 months) to 10 years old. Additionally I have experience in a daycare setting and have worked with up to 8 children at once. I always work with the aim of providing optimal care which nurtures children physically, socially, emotionally and developmentally. I am a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant which allows for additional perspective into gross motor development.
