Find experienced child care providers in Shepherdstown, WV

As a parent, seasoned babysitter, and educator, I understand how important it is to have help and how difficult it can be for families to find someone they feel comfortable with. I have developed great relationships with families I’ve been fortunate to serve by understanding the needs of each family. With me as your sitter, you can rest assured knowing safety, engagement, encouragement, and a positive atmosphere is what you are getting. I’ve babysat children of all ages (newborns to teenagers and nearly every age between), been a k-8 substitute teacher, and a kindergarten teacher. Now I have a 3 year old daughter of my own. I currently work from home as a Business Analyst for Grand Canyon Education M-F 9-5. My husband is a stay at home dad, works part-time, and we are blessed to have help with my mom living next door. Accordingly, I am available nights, weekends, or simply just as needed for date nights. I’d love to hear about your family and what you are looking for in a sitter.

I have been babysitting for seven years now. I have experience caring for newborns, toddlers, and school aged children. Child care is a huge passion of mine.

Hi, I’m Gloria! I recently transitioned out of the tech sector after a layoff, and I’m excited to spend more time doing something I’ve always loved: helping kids grow into their full potential. Earlier in my career, I spent several years working with children of all ages across a variety of settings, and infants were always where my heart was. I spent about a year as a live-in nanny for a baby girl, starting when she was 3 months old and staying with her through 11 months — it was one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences of my life. I also cared for another infant, a 3-month-old, on a regular basis, and worked with a family with a 1-year-old and a kindergartener, handling morning school drop-offs, lunch prep, daily activities, and enrichment for the younger one, like library trips and socialization time. I'd love to get to know you and your family — feel free to reach out anytime!

I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I have always had a passion for caring for children, helping them learn and grow! I have worked at a few different centers, and at one of them I was the lead teacher. I have lesson planned, which consisted of focusing on skills appropriate for the child's age. I am open to working on different skills with your child/children if that is something you are interested in. I also am going to get certifications and continue furthering my education throughout the next couple of years. I have done coursework for West Virginia Stars, which is for career advancement/professional development in childcare. It is a requirement to do some of the courses to work for daycares. It's a great learning tool for those wanting to be able to take the best care they possibly can of little ones and truly understanding how children need cared for. I am first aid/CPR certified, fully vaccinated, have my own transportation, am reliable, and I do not smoke.

I’ve been a nurse for almost 3 years now and decided that after having my son I’d like to stay home. I have my CPR and First Aid certifications, a nursing license, and pediatric history. (Daycare and nursing.) I will travel to your home, with my son, and watch your child(ren.)

My name is Melissa and my personal background comes from growing up to be the oldest out of 6 siblings. Not only was my house consisted of sibling rivalry but also secretly all of us not wanting to be apart. The women of my family started as working with children in owning a home day care, teaching early education in church. The only thing that seemed fitting and natural to me was to study, and work with children. I am a certified early education and development teacher which allows me to teach in a preschool setting. Working with children for 13 years as my career path I will be able to bring my experiences and strengths to any new children-families needing care. Working with children of all ages, handling multiple children at once(1-8), providing care for special needs children comes with a huge impact and rewarding. Not only am I making a difference with each child/children I provide care for, they make each moment a lifelong reward too.
