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.

Daija J.
- 6 years paid experience
- 12 miles
My name is Da’Ija Jackson, and I have over 10 years of child care experience. I’m 23 years old, and caring for children has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. Even as a young girl, I loved helping with babies—holding them, changing diapers (even when I didn’t fully know how!), and supporting my family by caring for my younger siblings and cousins. That passion only grew over time. When I was in daycare myself, I would always want to help out in the younger classrooms. Later, during high school, I had the opportunity to work in our school’s daycare program that supported teen parents. I worked there during both my 11th and 12th grade years, gaining valuable hands-on experience serving children from 6 weeks to two years old. After graduating, I worked at a preschool for four years, where I deepened my understanding of early childhood development. During my time there, I served as lead teacher in the one-year-old, two-year-old, and three-year-old classrooms, leading daily activities, managing routines, and supporting each child’s growth and development with lesson planning. I then joined back with the child care program at Richmond Public Schools. Currently, I’m working toward earning my Child Development Associate (CDA) credential to further my professional development in early childhood education. In addition to my full-time work, I also provide babysitting services for former students and their families, offering trusted and familiar care. I’m passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and educational environments where children can grow, explore, and thrive.

Hello! My name is Cammie and I am 19 years old. At the moment, I’m looking for some part-time work while I go to school at Brightpoint Community College studying to become a high school English teacher. Over the past couple years I’ve spent time in elementary school classrooms, daycare settings, and managing high school students. I love to spend time with my 5 dogs, friends and family, and watching new shows and movies. One of my favorite things about working with kids is planning fun activities for learning and thinking of diverse teaching methods to use in my future career. Between my experience as a lead after school teacher and baby sitter, it’s always fun to think outside of the box with a new class or child! I would love the opportunity to apply my ideas and meet new families!

Hi! My name is Tytiana Lashley 🌸 I’m 23 years old from Fredericksburg, Virginia, and a first-time mom to a beautiful 5-month-old baby girl. I’ll be graduating this December from Virginia State University, where I originally majored in Elementary Education and completed all of my coursework and requirements to graduate but took a semester off for my babygirl. However I have returned stronger than ever and have switched to Individualized Studies with a focus in Elementary Education to give myself more pathways for the future. I’ve been working with children for years from trampoline parks to daycares to student teaching in my own classroom. Through all of these experiences, I’ve developed a strong passion for nurturing, caring for, and helping children grow. I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids can be themselves and learn along the way. I’m currently taking two final courses to finish what I started, and in the meantime, I’m excited to offer my time and care to families who need a reliable, loving babysitter they can trust. 💕
