Heather H., Child Care in The Plains, VA 20198 with 10 years of paid experience

My name is Heather Krones and I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. I am very interested in your position. I have a lot of experience with children. I have my Associates Degree in Early Care and Education and have full intentions of going back for my bachelors in Early Childhood Education at some point. For now, being a nanny warms my heart. I was a nanny for a family in St. Louis for 2.5 years for three young children. I left that family because of my big move to the east coast at the end of Decmember 2014. When I moved here I was offered a job from another wonderful family of twin babies. I am a nanny looking for an adventure. I believe that it is important to introduce children to many different parts of every day life. I beleive in field trips and giving children, of all ages, the experiences that life has to offer. I believe that it is important for children to have consistency, but also variety. I enjoy being busy and on the go. As a nanny, it is my hope to take care of your children and nurture them, but also fullfill duties that you are unable to do while at work. I can clean, do laundry and run errands. Therefore, when you return home you can focus all of your energy on being with your children. During the summer I like to take children to the pool, the zoo, the park and discover new places for children to explore. During the school year I can take children to after-school activities, playdates, homework help, etc. I would love to talk to you more about your position. If you think we would be a good fit I would love to hear from you. I look forward to your reply! Thank you so much! Heather Krones

We were attending a wedding from out of town (no little ones allowed at the reception), and contacted Heather because of her experience, profile, and feedback. She had excellent communications before our arrival, was on-time, and our daughter took to her immediately. They had a great time, and our daughter (almost 3 y/o) is still talking about their activities. We wish she lived in our town, as it is uncommon to find a sitter with a great background that puts so much energy to making it fun while sitting. She worked perfectly for us!

I am 20 years old. I come from a huge family so I have always been around kids and taken care of kids of all ages up to 8 years old. I am good at finding activities to do with them as well as keeping them on schedule if they are on one. The responsibilities I’ve had in the past are putting the kids down for naps, snack time/ lunch. I also like cooking so that would not be a problem.

If you're in the need for some time to get things done or simply enjoy some time out, I'm happy to help! Just give me a call or shoot me a text and hopefully we can work something out.

Abbie is awesome. She is an excellent date night sitter and was so helpful with my kids when I needed her to pick them up from daycare and help out until my husband and I were off work. She is super responsible and great with two kids (preschool aged and toddler). I feel so comfortable leaving the kids with her which is what we all want!

Tatiana B., Child Care in The Plains, VA 20198 with 13 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Tatiana. I love being a babysitter because it allows me to be a listener, a friend and a mentor to children. Creating a bond with a child really goes a long way. Its not only about the laughing and silly jokes, but the respect. Having respect will lead them into trusting you. When kids have someone they can trust, feelings and emotions can be expressed. There is always some kind of pain or feeling(whether good or bad) behind those adorable smiles. It just takes the right friend to be there to listen.

Tatiana is amazing. She is very caring with our toddler (20 months) and interested in getting to know his likes and dislikes. She is very easy going and accommodating should we need flexibility. She has amazing references and its obvious why. She truly loves spending time with young children. She's also incredibly neat and cleans up better than we do!

Reina is AMAZING. She is kind. She genuinely cared about our daughter, and our daughter loved her like a second mother--because she was like a second mother. Reina is also very smart and responsible. She read up on childcare, applied what she found, and was great about following any instructions we had. Reina was also incredibly patient, even in the face of toddler chaos and tantrums, which made me feel very safe having her in charge. We were lucky enough to have Reina come for hours several days per week for multiple years, so we worked with her a lot. I'm probably forgetting some other great qualities to mention. But given how intelligent and trustworthy she is, I know that I would highly recommend her for any position. She is a talented, caring, and careful person.

I am 28 years young and I would love nothing more than to be part of another family. I have always had a natural gift with being good with children. I was previously a STEM and art teacher for a private academy for about 3 years however I have 8+ years of childcare experience. I love watching little minds grow and knowing that I helped them reach their full potential physically and mentally.

Haley was very sweet and professional. We interviewed her to Nanny in our home. She was considerate, down to earth, knowledgeable, and kind. She was very easy to talk to and has a great professional background. We had several great nannies to interview so it was very hard to make a decision. In the end Haley was our runner-up. I’d love to work with her in the future (her education background would be amazing for slightly older kids (2-8) ) however, I think she would make a great difference in any family! I absolutely recommend Haley to any family looking for a quality Nanny.
