Junacie G., Child Care in Smithfield, VA 23430 with 5 years of paid experience

My name is Junacie, and I am a U.S. Navy veteran originally from Los Angeles, California. After completing my military service, I chose to follow my passion for working with children, and I have now been a dedicated nanny for over six years. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education, which allows me to bring both practical experience and strong developmental knowledge into my work with families. I have experience as a ROTA nanny and would love to continue in a similar role, though I am open to full-time or part-time positions with the right family. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, including preschool twins, children with special needs, overnight care, and larger groups of children. I am CPR and First Aid certified, bilingual in Spanish, and can provide my résumé, references, and background check upon request. I would describe myself as responsible, creative, and loving. I am especially passionate about supporting developmental milestones in young children through engaging games and Montessori-inspired activities. With older children, I enjoy planning arts and crafts, park outings, beach days, and other age-appropriate adventures. I also support school-aged children with homework, tutoring, and structured learning activities to help them build confidence and succeed academically. I look forward to finding a wonderful family where I can provide nurturing, dependable care in a ROTA, full-time, or part-time role.

We have absolutely loved having Chelsea look after our boys. Her genuine love and care for children puts my mama heart at ease. It’s a relief to know that my children are being well taken care of by someone so patient and kind and with such attentiveness. She is mindful of each of my children’s individual needs, and keeps to their schedules and routines. With all of that being said, the most important part is that she brings so much fun and joy into our household, my kids have an absolute blast with her! We love having Chelsea as our caregiver

I cannot say enough good things about her. Finding someone you truly trust with your children—especially when you have a mix of needs—is not easy, but she has exceeded every expectation I had. She is incredibly attentive, patient, and genuinely caring with all of my children. My neurotypical kids absolutely adore her and constantly rave about how much fun they have when she’s around. My daughters especially love her and are always excited when they know she’s coming, and my toddler son is comfortable and happy in her care. What means the most to me, though, is how she shows up for my autistic daughter. She is calm, understanding, and meets her exactly where she is. There is a level of patience and compassion she brings that you simply cannot teach—and it truly shows in how comfortable and happy my daughter is with her. My autistic daughter is genuinely happy when she’s here, and that peace of mind is everything as a parent. She is reliable, communicative, and brings such a positive, warm energy into our home. I feel completely at ease knowing my children are in her care. She doesn’t just “watch” them—she connects with them, supports them, and creates a safe, happy environment. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your children as if they were her own, she is truly a gem.

Tynesia was on-time for her face to face interview. She also has been on-time every morning for the job. She is very friendly and caring for my son like he is her own or a family member. My son really likes her and I'm grateful for her.

Hello! I’m an experienced babysitter with nearly five years of childcare experience. I’ve cared for infants through school-aged children and am confident managing routines, meal prep, light housekeeping, and bedtime. I’m calm under pressure, attentive, speak Spanish, and focused on maintaining a safe, structured, and positive environment for children.

I take pride in being dependable and trustworthy for the families I work with.
