Find experienced child care providers in Elliston, VA

Hello, My name is Davia Ford and I am 25 years old. Currently I am a professional ballet dancer with Roanoke Ballet Theatre. I have been nannying/babysitting as a paid position for about 7 years and I am experienced in caring for a variety of children from infants to twelve years. I love caring for children and I am gentle and patient but can be stern when needed. Many of my tasks from past jobs include but are not limited to school pickups, transporting to activities, helping with school/home work, cooking meals, snack prep, light cleaning, bathing, playing with the kids, light discipline, conflict resolution, etc. I am very comfortable caring for multiple children at a time. My most recent job is for a family with 2 kids aged 6 and 8 with one of them being a child with special needs. I hope that you will consider me as your child's caretaker.

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.

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.

My name is Eman. I am an 20-year-old college student at Virginia Tech. I am a cheerful, positive, and respectful person. I enjoy working with children of all ages and have experience caring for children with special needs. I have 3 years of paid babysitting experience during which I was an after-school sitter for 2 different families for children from 3 years old to twelve years old. I also previously worked at a math summer camp so I am a great tutor and would love to offer my help. Babysitting is something I love doing because every day is something new and it's amazing being part of a child learning and growing as a person.

Hello my name is gearnique dillard, I’m a mother of three I’m also a treatment foster parent. I have been a TFP for over 2 years and in the childcare industry for over 4 years.

Hi there, I am a mother of two grown children who have both finished college and are well rounded adults and just overall beautiful people in this world. I used to babysit a friends child for free when I was younger, so I haven't baby sat literally in a while. However, I am partially retired and found that I could enhance another child's life since I love seeing the astronomical potential in a child. I do respect children's intelligence due to their ability to see the truth. We should never underestimate a child's ability to discern people early in their life. I am really patient, kind and generous with what knowledge I have and would make sure that I take good care of your child/children.
