Find experienced child care providers in Strasburg, VA

Greetings Parents and Guardians, If you’re reading this, it means you are looking for a: trustworthy, experienced, caring, fun-loving, and safe babysitter for your most precious part of your life-your child(ren). I started babysitting when I was 10 and just kept going. I babysat all through college and even during my career as a teacher. I have worked with children in three ways: babysitting, tutoring, and being an elementary school teacher and media specialist. I even taught at the graduate school level which was very interesting and entertaining as the adults complained more about homework than my fifth graders! I enjoy children and I respect their idiosyncrasies and personalities. With this in mind, I have experience with children who are gifted and talented and as well as those who are on the autism spectrum. Not every babysitter has that experience nor is comfortable with children on the spectrum or gifted. I enjoy doing crafts and especially baking with the children I babysit. My pizza parties are very popular! It’s important we have fun together but also learn life skills in the process. I adore reading to children and believe that reading should bookend our day together. Additionally, if you have pets—that’s wonderful! I adore cats and dogs and find their presence in a family so warm and fun. Certainly, my bio has you excited to book and meet me! I can’t wait to meet your children! So contact me to schedule a meeting with you and your family. I look forward to adding your child(ren) to my babysitting schedule.

I love children. I have 7 siblings and I’m the oldest so I have a little bit of experience. I’m fairly new to the area so I’m looking for a full time job babysitting.

I am cheerful, fun loving, creative and absolutely adore working with children. I come from a large family and, on top of that, have been nannying for ages newborn-17years for the past seven years. I am a firm believer that honesty is always the best policy and like to be crystal clear with parents about how their child is doing and what they are doing. I have experience in homeschooling as well as teaching, so assisting with homework is not new to me and I am also more than happy to help with basic household chores such as dishes, laundry, meal prep etc. I have both a license and a car. I also have CPR training and knowledge of basic first aid. I am happy to provide references as well as do a background check if you would like! Thank you so much for your consideration, I look forward to hearing from you.

I enjoy working with children, and have spent 16 years in home or childcare settings. In that amount of time I have worked with a range of children from infant to school age. My experience come with my developmental knowledge of children and the interaction and bond I build with children. When it comes to the nanny setting I worked 2 years with a set of 9 months triplets up until they were 2 and half before moving to the northern Virginia area. I then took a job in a private childcare setting in McLean working with 2-3 year olds for the last 6 years. I have MAT training, and CPR and first aide certification and hold my Child development associate.
