Hi! I am a recent college graduate from JMU who is living in Harrisonburg and looking to help out families :) I have provided care for local families and those living closer to an hour away. I like working with kids because I like getting to experience lots of joyful, simplistic interactions and providing teaching moments. I love how working with kids is rewarding for everyone all around. I can allow a parent/caregiver to feel comfortable putting their children in reliable hands while I serve as a role model and engage in activities. I started working with kids my freshman year of high school. I have been working with kids for nine years. I have watched children from 20+ different families from ages 4 mos-11 years across various settings. I have experience watching children at my own home, parent/caregiver's home, church, hotels, and wedding venues. In addition, I've spent time substitute teaching for preschool-middle school classes. I am certified in CPR and first aid. In my spare time, I like to do anything outside such as going on long walks, playing spikeball and pickleball, and going hiking! I also love baking. My skills include patience, communication, and organization.

I’m Tess! I am a mother of 2 girls! We also have 4 small dogs, 2 kitties and 1 hedgehog! We love the fur babies. I enjoy reading, dancing and makeup in my spare time. My family and I love being outdoors in the summer. We hope that your little will enjoy these activities with us! You can find us at a river or at the park across the street. We’re not a huge fan of winter and the cold so much, we like to hibernate. My girls and I enjoy movies and board games for family nights. We also enjoy art and creating things, a good movie night and spending time with family. We have a learn through play motto with minimal “structured” learning until we hit the age of 4 to 5 where we begin to understand and develop the ability to sit and focus more on colors, numbers, etc. We enjoy making crafts for family members and friends as well. I am CPR/First Aide certified, in the summer my 14 year old and 8 year old are very hands on with activities that we do. I do have references (for privacy reasons I didn’t post my families information) please contact me and I’d be happy to get you in touch
