Find experienced child care providers in Hopewell, VA

Hello! I am Shelby i am 30 years old i have been babysitting and part-time nannying for about 15 years I recently moved to the area from Oregon and I’m excited to get to know the Richmond area

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!

I am 52 years old and a mother of 3 adult children, ages 28, 25, and 20. My husband and I moved to Virginia in 2017. We were born and raised in Massachusetts. I love animals and have 2 small dogs. I was lucky enough to be a stay at home mom and after raising my children I was a Pre School assistant teacher for 4 years and then a preschool van driver for 2 years. I also took care of my critically ill mother, changing dressings, take care of her feeding tube, injections, and take care of her oxygen tanks are just some of the things I took care of for her. I enjoy walking my dogs with my husband. I love children and enjoy the company of all my great nieces and nephews. I am a non smoker. I have a clean driving license and a dependable SUV. If you think I would fit the role of your sitter I would love to meet with you and at that time I can give you my references.

Hello! I started working with kids at a young age, special needs at that, & from there I’ve grown to love working with them & seeing them grow up, improve on their skills, etc. After I graduated high school I worked at elementary school for almost about 3 years & it was the best time I had. I worked in a contained classroom with children with disabilities but also with gen ed. As I’ve said before, it is an overall great feeling to get to meet new kids & learn of their amazing personalities!
