Christa did a great job. We needed short term child care on short notice. Christa responded quickly to us, called us, and provided additional details on the weekend before we needed child care. Our child enjoyed her time with Christa and talked non-stop about her time there.

Karla R., Child Care in Norfolk, VA 23505 with 14 years of paid experience

Hello parents! 😁 I’m a proud mother of five children, three ladies and two fellas, ages 20 to 28. In 2022, I became a Grammy to each a girl and a boy and another grandson came along in 2024. Twelve years ago, I earned a Master’s degree in Education and have over seven years of teaching experience in public education at both the high school and middle school levels. In my early years of motherhood, I operated in-home daycares for infants to pre-school aged children. I have taught and assisted many times in church Sunday School classes (nursery to high school) and have led and assisted with Vacation Bible School (nursery to high school). I have also led and assisted with youth groups and activities to include attending week-long summer camps and weekend retreats. I’m a divorcee of a retired serviceman. For those military families reviewing my profile, I’m very familiar with life in the military and the challenges that are presented along the journey. Thank you for your dedication and service! Needless to say, I have a genuine love for children of all ages and enjoy teaching and nurturing them; helping each one grow and learn to be the unique person they are created to be. Activities I take pleasure in are walking, reading, crafting, healthy eating, spending time in the kitchen and listening to music (dancing to the music, as well, even if someone is watching!). These are also some of the things I like to do with children, and of course, encouraging them to find and pursue their own interests and participating along with them. Life is certainly meant to be enjoyed, but there are times the fun might need to wait. You can be assured that your children will be accountable for their personal responsibilities (when applicable) like chores and homework (which I’m more than willing to assist), but who says these things can’t be fun? It’s all about perspective and that’s what I hope to instill in your children should you give me the opportunity. I appreciate the time you have taken to review my profile!

Karla was amazing with our 10mo old, calm, nurturing and our stranger anxiety riddled baby didn’t even cry! First time parents getting a babysitter for the first time and it couldn’t have gone any better! She was so kind and patient and really down to earth. Can’t wait to work with her again!

Leah is highly qualified! She is a 2nd grade teacher and regular sitter. We hired her to watch 10 kids ages 1-9 while we were sharing a vacation home with friends. We came home and every child was fast asleep. In the morning they said they had the best time with her! It was so nice to enjoy time with our adult friends on vacay while knowing our children were also enjoying themselves, and more importantly were safe and in great hands.

Kaliyah W., Child Care in Norfolk, VA 23505 with 3 years of paid experience

In the past, my mother owned a licensed, at-home daycare, where I helped take care of many different children. It was during this time that I realized that I love teaching toddlers their ABCs and numbers, as well as helping them learn how to read. So, even though I am in college at the moment, I would still like to continue doing my part in providing positive development to younger children. I have experience working with kids who have autism or other special needs—I've mostly worked with children ages 2-4, but have plenty of experience with infants as well. In addition, I can drive!

Meka B., Child Care in Norfolk, VA 23505 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Meka. Your child can call me MS. MEKA. I use to be a full time Child Care Provider years ago, but due to daily pain I could not do it full time anymore. I still love helping parents out in anyway that I can along with teaching & adding structure. I also know it’s hard to find quality care and people you trust and those who will be an advocate for your child.. (children in general). I am a mother of 3... ages 29, 25 & 23. I have bonus children too…. Also my oldest just had a little precious one(My grand age 3). I was home with them majority of their early childhood & teen years being able to prepare them for school, help with school work, take them to their activities, take them to school, and making sure they completed high school and/ or college...(Honor grad/Cum Laude grad & many meetings/support for my child who has Dyslexia). I do believe “Learning starts at home”. I was a single mom most of that time. There were many times, I had to get 3 kids to 3 different events at the same time, but parents make a way & God will put the right people in your path to help you. Please let me know if I can be any assistance to you or your family. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Also, I am First Aid/CPR Certified & I have a background check through the state!! Along with completed requirements for Water Safety for Parents & Caregivers. Thank you... have a blessed day!

She is honest, loyal, dependable, patient, creative, helps to enforce our rules, and clearly communicates. Her dedication over such a long period of time speaks volumes about her character and work ethic.

I have been a licensed childcare provider for 33 years, 15 years in Virginia Beach, licensed in New York for 17 years prior, and currently hold a licensed in Chesapeake. I am a mother of four (34,32,25,23) and a grand to one (4). I homeschooled my two youngest. I am bilingual and can teach Spanish or English. I focus on providing a smooth transition from home to school, believing children should not have to adapt to a school setting too early. I am a huge fan of learning through play.
