I am a retired banking executive . After leaving the banking world I married a long time friend and we adopted a 10 yr old from Foster Care in Roanoke Va, she graduated Ocean Lakes High School and now works as a teachers assistant. My husband Mark and I took 81 hours of training for child care, childhood trama, special needs, multi family raising, and "NAMI" mental health training. In order to become Foster Parents you have to pass a background check, multiple home checks, and after approved continued home checks. I have the certificate of approval from Roanoke County Social Serves for Foster Care for up to 5 children. We also had to be CPR certified. We had our great great niece came to live with us 7/2017 she was 12 lbs at 1 yr old and Dr said failure to thrive. She and her Dad lived with us until 1/2019. She was above weight, height, physical fitness when they were able to move out. The father and mother learned parenting and child safety. I was a nanny for a 4 month old for a Navy Master Chief 8 months and they were transferred. For the last 8 months I have been a nanny for a Navy JAG Lawyer and his wife; whom is a Doctor at Sentara. They have 4 children 4, 3, 2, 11 months. Mostly caring for the youngest two but all when schools closed or children sick. Mother-in-law came to live with them so I am available. Looking forward to talking with you on how I could help babysitting/nannying your precious children.

Hello! My name is Lauren and I have cared for littles ages 6 months to 13 years of age for 10+ years and counting. I have my own 4 year old daughter who is in a pre-school program Mon-Fri. I love being able to help kids grow in their creativity and have fun in or outdoors, rain or shine. Crafts, board games, reading, and sports are super fun and always keep the energy high for the kids! I am recently renewed of my CPR and First Aid certifications, and have worked in healthcare for many years. Reliable transportation in a vehicle that is car seat-ready, if need be! Feel free to contact and I'd love to share more information about myself with you! Lauren Wood

Hello! I’m currently a full time student with a background in psychology and child development. While I’ve only had roughly one year of experience in regards to paid childcare, my nieces and nephews gave me plenty of opportunities as well. What I love most about babysitting is watching children grow and explore their environment, along with helping them feel understood while still being able to set appropriate boundaries.

Hi!! My name is Lauren and I am 20 years old! I have a few years in taking care of children, from babysitting for families here and there over the years, watching children at elementary school after-school programs, and even working with children over the summer who have intellectual disabilities. I have a BLS certification through the AHA and I am also MAT trained in case your kiddos need any medications! However, aside from all of this, I just absolutely love working with kids and having the opportunity to create such meaningful memories for them to remember when they grow up. When I take care of a child, I take them under my wing as if they were my own. :)

I love being a sitter because it allows me to support families while creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space for children. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’m reliable, patient, and creative with activities. I’m also in the process of completing my CPR certification to provide the best and safest care possible.
