Marah B., Child Care in Catharpin, VA 20143 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello Parents, I am a 35 years old and have been working with children since I was 14. I have experience as a nanny, house manager, personal assistant, babysitter, house sitter and pet sitter. I am the oldest of six children and have experience with special needs, food and drug allergies. I specialize in infants and toddlers and take a special interest in children with anxiety. I have worked for several families long term as well as on call, part time, and date nights. My favorite thing about watching children is watching them grow, learn and discover new and great things about the world around them. I believe that routine is very important when it comes to raising children and having a regular caregiver that knows them, their habits, their likes and dislikes makes a huge difference! I am comfortable with homework help, drop off and pick up, taking children to activities as well as inventing activities, potty training, feeding, cooking, cleaning, laundry and more. In addition to this I am also featured on the Sittercity activities blog! I very much look forward to hearing from you!

I have several years of experience as a child care worker, where I developed a strong ability to create a nurturing and safe environment for children. My training includes certifications in CPR and First Aid, which ensure that I can respond effectively in emergencies. I also completed a child development course, giving me insights into age-appropriate activities that promote learning and growth as a college student majoring in Elementary Education. I have worked with children from ages newborn to 12 years old. My past experiences have equipped me with the skills to manage various situations, from daily routines to special occasions, ensuring a positive and enriching experience for the children I care for.

Ash J., Child Care in Catharpin, VA 20143 with 2 years of paid experience

I love being a sitter because it allows me to make a positive impact on families by providing safe, engaging, and nurturing care for children. I have experience as a sitter for multiple families, caring for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. Additionally, my role as a Taekwondo instructor has strengthened my skills in communication, patience, and behavior management with children of various ages. I am certified in CPR and basic first aid, ensuring I can respond to emergencies effectively. My background in customer service as a bubble tea barista has further developed my multitasking, problem-solving, and communication skills, all of which are essential in childcare settings.

Emy K., Child Care in Catharpin, VA 20143 with 17 years of paid experience

I am looking for a family with active kids, full of energy, and that is ready to have a great time! Parents that wish their kids could be more active and outdoors are also welcome. :) (I also enjoy indoor activities, though!) I believe as much as kids can stay outside, playing, and distracted, the better, so they don't get bored or start missing their parents. I love to be out with kids, playground, pool, playing sports, riding a bike, chalking, playing tag, hide and seek, and enjoying the nice weather - if possible! Ps: If your kids like to learn new things, and some Portuguese (I'm from Brazil), I will be more than happy to teach them!

Susan has been seeing our boys since late 2022. She started with our first born and then was introduced to our second born (as he arrived after she met the first). The first loved her immensely. The second grew rapidly fond of her. When we tell them that "Miss Susan" is coming to visit for babysitting, they explode in joy. Once, I had to work from home and could witness her work. Both boys really wanted her attention and they can be intense. She was good at diffusing crises and fights over time with her. They played for hours without any of the boys screaming or arguing. They listen to her so well and she is kind with them (without letting them push her over). She is someone we trust immensely with our kids. And they trust her -- for us, this was pretty much the thing that sealed the deal. A person worth hiring.

I enjoy being with children, they are my little friends. I love reading, coloring, singing, dancing, listening music and getting the fresh air with them outside. We can be silly and loud and we can be quite and listen the wind.

Hello there! I’m Patricia but you can also call me Trish.I love creating a fun, safe, and caring environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. From playtime and crafts to homework help and bedtime routines, I enjoy being a positive, dependable presence in their lives. One of the most rewarding parts of babysitting has been forming lasting connections with the children and families I work with. I treat every child with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’d want for my own family, and I would love the opportunity to support yours. Trish
