Find experienced child care providers in Bumpass, VA

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!

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.

Good morning! I do respite care for several families with children on the spectrum and have been part of their families for several years. I’ve earned an M.Ed. in Educational Psychology (school counsellor) and an ABA (RBT) certificate, and I'm currently pursuing a second degree in Special Education at UVA. I have cared for a 6-year-old for the past 3 years and am a good fit for a family seeking occasional care or a weekend break. I also provide weekend respite care for a 10-year-old and occasionally take him to the playground, the pool, Urban Air, horseback riding, or over weekends to give the family a break and de-escalate the tense home environment. I recently completed a practicum with students with special needs in third and fourth grades at Stafford Elementary School. I have a Commercial Driver’s License with a school bus endorsement (special needs) and am certified in First Aid, Trauma, CPR, and AED for infants and children. I am the father of a special needs child who is now a successful adult, and I've had two careers: one at NBC Television, where you might know the name Bob Wright, a past CEO and founder of Autism International (he has a grandchild on the spectrum), and the other as a Microsoft consultant. My ‘gift’ is that I am an active senior who wholeheartedly accepts these children for who they are, not where some think they should be. Outside activities with an experienced care provider, rather than a parent, are excellent environments for learning, for developing independence, and practicing acceptable social behaviors. I am a retired Microsoft tech guy who got involved in the Autistic community by volunteering with Big Brothers/Big Sisters. I can schedule a video Zoom introduction, prior to meeting in person. A FACEBOOK POST OF FREDRICKSBURG PARENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN “Hello all! I am in the Navy and, luckily, receive Respite Care services through EFMP. Our respite care provider is Gary Masters. He has been in our family’s lives for over a year now and is a fantastic human. I write this post because he has the time and is looking to help another family, either through respite care or if you need a trusted sitter for your autistic kiddo. Gary is a retired Microsoft tech guy who started getting involved in the Autistic community by volunteering with Big Brothers/Big Sisters. He completed his BCBA (ABA) training and is currently finishing his masters in Special Education. He was vetted to be our respite care provider.

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.

Hi! My name is Asharah, and I’m a college student currently pursuing nursing while working in healthcare. I’m looking for part-time nannying/babysitting opportunities where I can provide a safe, calm, and nurturing environment for children. I genuinely love working with kids and helping families feel supported. I understand that every household and child is different, and I’m very respectful of parenting styles, routines, and boundaries. I’m happy to follow the lead of parents when it comes to schedules, discipline approaches, meals, bedtime routines, and overall care preferences. My background in caregiving has helped me become patient, dependable, attentive, and calm under pressure.
