Find local child care providers in Hiwassee, VA

I've been baby-sitter for many years and have had the pleasure of being welcomed into many homes and partner with many families. My love for kids, teaching and care giving began in church where I served as a Sunday School Teacher as well as a Youth Minister. Since entering the workforce, where I worked as an After School/Summer Camp Counselor and Assistant Teacher, I've found my passion by helping families nurture and raise their little ones.

Hi! My name is Mallie Edwards! I love being around kids. I have been a babysitter for about 3 years now! I also substitute at an Elementary school and I work at a summer program with children! I love children and them being okay is my top priority. I would love to work with any children.

Being a sitter is awesome because you get to see the world through kids' eyes, which is endlessly entertaining and heartwarming. I've watched kids of all ages, from newborns to pre-teens. I've handled everything from diaper changes and meal prep to homework help and bedtime stories. Babysitting my siblings growing up definitely had its moments, from the chaotic pillow fights to the surprisingly deep conversations. Then, getting to babysit my niece as she grew up was a whole different kind of special—seeing the world through her eyes and being a part of her little adventures was pretty amazing. It's wild to think how much those experiences shaped me. I'm CPR and first aid certified, and I've taken courses in child development and safety. I'm also pretty good at improvising games and activities to keep kids engaged and happy!

Hello, my name is Kimberly Doremus. My Profile says I am currently in Virginia, however I just moved to the Melbourne area! I would like to first thank you for taking the time to read my bio. I have been living in the SouthWest Virginia area for most of my life and am currently settling into the area! A little about me, I worked at a local daycare in Radford VA called Grace A Child, where I was the preschool teacher for two years. Some of the responsibilities I had as being the preschool teacher were potty training, lesson planning/ activities, evaluating children and communicating with families and providing a safe and comforting space for children. After leaving Grace A Child I began working at a childcare center in Blacksburg VA called Rainbow Riders with two year olds for close to two years where I started babysitting for about ten different families from weekend to weekend. I provided care for birthday party help, date nights, parents working on weekends and parents running errands with families of one to three children ranging from a year and a half to ten years old. Many families have said I do a great job at keeping their child safe, happy, calm and they looked forward to seeing me when I am scheduled to come care for them. I truly love caring for children and providing a safe comfortable space for them to explore the interests they have and grow self confidence in themselves. I enjoy doing crafts with children to help with expression and fine motor skills, dance parties and obstacle courses to help with gross motor skills, reading stories to help with language skills, dramatic play to help with social/ emotional skills and more. I am CPR and First Aid certified along with a handful of other certifications through Virginia that I can provide if needed along with references through families I have worked for. In my free time I enjoy paddle boarding with my dog, exploring new trails, spending time with my boyfriend of seven years and going to the beach. I hope to hear from you soon!

I come from a family of babysitters, my mom and grandma both worked in childcare, so I’ve grown up around it. I’m currently a camp counselor where I lead morning and after care, pool time, and playground activities. I’m also an aunt to a one-year-old girl, so I’m very comfortable caring for infants and toddlers. In my free time, I volunteer as a basketball coach for a local boys’ team. I enjoy working with kids of all ages and love helping them learn, play, and grow. Even though I’m fairly new to working with kids, it’s been such a wonderful and rewarding experience. I’ve learned so much, especially patience and how to connect with each child in their own way. I’ve explored other career paths, but nothing has felt as meaningful as this. I truly enjoy getting to know new families and being a positive part of a child’s day.
