Find experienced child care providers in Chester, VA

Hi. I have many years of unpaid childcare experience…helping out friends and family. But I also had an in-home childcare for 12 years. The only reason I stopped doing this was because we moved into an apartment and no longer had the space to accommodate this. Most of the children started with me at about three months old, and stayed with me until they entered kindergarten. I have many references and I am infant through adult CPR and first aid certified. During those 12 years I kept the number of children at five, for more individual attention. I always had five, and they were full-time. We danced to silly songs, did crafts, baked, loved being outside, and just enjoy being kids. I am a loving, creative, and trustworthy person. I have always had a big heart for children, and all people really. I would love to meet you and see if you feel like I am a great fit for you and your family. 😊

Hey there, I’m Emma! I’m currently a student at VCU studying Elementary Education. I am also a substitute teacher!

I am a very fun sitter who enjoys reading, learning, crafting and much more! I hope to connect with you and your families to provide a helping hand for any of your needs.

I love spending time with kids and I had great experiences babysitting a lot of kids from different backgrounds and cultures . I’m super active, I like to play games, doing crafts, painting, watch movies with kids along with preparing some snacks or light meals. I would never leave from my shift without cleaning any mess that I caused or anything related to baby/ child care. I have 7 of years of experience, I feel more comfortable working with ages of 12month and up as I love to be a part of your baby’s development journey. I don’t drink or smoke, I can do outdoor activities and parks if there’s a car provided for that purpose or compensation for my gas and mileage in case of using my personal vehicle. I have references to provide. I will run a background check upon request:) or I can provide a previous copy from a recent one.

Having a degree in early childhood, for the past twenty years, I have watched infants, toddlers, older children and twins. I find it rewarding to be involved in the toddler years with all the major learning and natural curiosity present during that age. In my previous childcare positions, the child and I have enjoyed visits to the library, park, and daily neighborhood walks. Walks always provide fun opportunities for observation of nature, squirrels, flowers, and outside activities. Keeping schedules and familiar routines has been a priority for me in working with young children. I believe it gives them a healthy sense of expectation and promotes security throughout their day. My past experience and knowledge of infants is an asset. I have cared for several children since birth and even have been called a “baby whisperer” due to my ability to identify their unspoken needs. I was also the “lead teacher” in the birth-to-crawlers nursery every Sunday at a church for several years. Infants are like little sponges picking up new surroundings in their world. I have watched several infants as well as being their first official nanny. I enjoy being an "observer" as they experience their first smiles, tastes, steps and new initial skills. I truly enjoy all children and as they grow, they grow on me!

Hi! I’m Brittany, and I have a true passion for working with children. Since June 2023, I’ve been the owner and provider of my own in-home daycare, where I’ve cared for multiple children while creating a safe, structured, and fun environment for them to learn and grow. Before that, I worked in daycare centers, as a tutor, and as an instructional assistant in an autism classroom, giving me experience with children of all ages and a wide range of needs. I’m confident in everything from infant care and potty training to creating engaging activities and supporting developmental milestones. While I’ve loved running my daycare, I’m excited to transition into a nanny role so I can provide more personalized, one-on-one care and build a close relationship with a family. I’m dependable, patient, and truly love helping children thrive!
