Hello, My name is Davia Ford and I am 25 years old. Currently I am a professional ballet dancer with Roanoke Ballet Theatre. I have been nannying/babysitting as a paid position for about 7 years and I am experienced in caring for a variety of children from infants to twelve years. I love caring for children and I am gentle and patient but can be stern when needed. Many of my tasks from past jobs include but are not limited to school pickups, transporting to activities, helping with school/home work, cooking meals, snack prep, light cleaning, bathing, playing with the kids, light discipline, conflict resolution, etc. I am very comfortable caring for multiple children at a time. My most recent job is for a family with 2 kids aged 6 and 8 with one of them being a child with special needs. I hope that you will consider me as your child's caretaker.

I am a retired banking executive . After leaving the banking world I married a long time friend and we adopted a 10 yr old from Foster Care in Roanoke Va, she graduated Ocean Lakes High School and now works as a teachers assistant. My husband Mark and I took 81 hours of training for child care, childhood trama, special needs, multi family raising, and "NAMI" mental health training. In order to become Foster Parents you have to pass a background check, multiple home checks, and after approved continued home checks. I have the certificate of approval from Roanoke County Social Serves for Foster Care for up to 5 children. We also had to be CPR certified. We had our great great niece came to live with us 7/2017 she was 12 lbs at 1 yr old and Dr said failure to thrive. She and her Dad lived with us until 1/2019. She was above weight, height, physical fitness when they were able to move out. The father and mother learned parenting and child safety. I was a nanny for a 4 month old for a Navy Master Chief 8 months and they were transferred. For the last 8 months I have been a nanny for a Navy JAG Lawyer and his wife; whom is a Doctor at Sentara. They have 4 children 4, 3, 2, 11 months. Mostly caring for the youngest two but all when schools closed or children sick. Mother-in-law came to live with them so I am available. Looking forward to talking with you on how I could help babysitting/nannying your precious children.

Hello! My name is Luanna, I am 23 years old and recently graduated from VCU with a bachelor's in psychology and criminal justice. Towards the end of my undergraduate studies, I shifted my focus on child development. I am working on my masters degree as well as my teaching license. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am also comfortable with travel and also have a clean driving record and a drivers license. I have a younger brother that I watched growing up and eventually began babysitting around my neighborhood. I was a high school and college athlete, so babysitting allowed me to have a more flexible schedule. Currently, I am a nanny to 3 different families. I Graduated in May 2022 and began working at a group home when I realized that I preferred working with younger children and returned to personal child care. I briefly worked at a Montessori preschool as an assistant teacher as well. I have experience in all ages (from 2 months to 17 years old) and training with a wide range of special needs and disabilities. I am bilingual (Portuguese and English). Housework, transportation, and pets are no issue. I’m a believer that my role in the house is to be an extra helper who makes your life easier! I am recently engaged and they will often offer an extra set of hands for me when needed. I am currently living in Richmond VA; however, we are hoping to be given an opportunity to move out of the state. We are simply seeking a new start out of college and to move away from our hometowns. I am looking for a long-term position with one family and to build a personal relationship with you and your children. I hope to bring comfort and more stability into your home and assist your family as much as possible. My hope is to develop a reliable and personal relationship. I encourage physical activity and spending time outdoors as much as possible and to have as much fun as you can whenever you can. I will always try to create a healthy environment with open communication, and learn how to best support your children in whatever their interests may be. My main goal is to be able to assist in your child’s mental and physical development as well as their emotional wellbeing. I practice gentle parenting ideologies and hope to become a safe space for your children. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I appreciate the opportunity and thank you for your time. - Luanna P.

I also have experience teaching in after-school programs. I am naturally a tidy person, so you can be sure that your home will be be better than you left it! I have been certified with CPR/AED for the past 6 years and I have worked as a life-guard, which has provided me with skills of high-awareness, safety, and discipline. I have been babysitting in private homes part-time from the time I was 13. And began my work as a professional full time nanny 1.5 years ago. Some activities I enjoy in my free time are hiking, camping, anything outdoors, reading, playing games, creating art, listening to instrumental music, yoga, and exercise. Children have as much to teach us as we have to teach them and truly love spending my day in their presence. I have my own transportation and I am available Monday-Fridays.

I have worked with children for 9 years now. I was a mother's helper for 3 years, and have been babysitting ever since then.

I graduated from Santa Barbara college with an AA degree in early childhood education. I’ve done summer camp help as a counselor with children that are living with type one diabetes.

Being a nanny is by far my favorite! We create so many memories together. From first steps to starting school 🥹🫶🏻

Hello!! Thank you for taking a look. My name is Jennie. I was born and raised in the U.K. We moved to the U.S.A when I was 18 and I lived and went to uni in Atlanta. I moved out to LA after graduation where I was a professional nanny for 11 years. I first started working with celebrity families and then had the opportunity to train with special needs children and their families in the behavioral health department at Cedars Sinai Hospital in LA. My husband and I left the city when we started our own family 12 years ago. I have many years experience with families and children with special needs. I am a trained ABA therapist. I have worked with multiples. I am trained to use nebulizers, epipens, trained in seizure first aid, (currently up to date on all CPR certifications and Covid protocols.) I've been a newborn care provider (my own included), and been part of early child development and infant intervention programs within centers, home programs and schools. I've worked at summer camps. I have French family and speak french. My husband is from Argentina so I speak some Spanish, and there is certainly bit of a language jumble going on at family get togethers😊. I think my strength is having patience and finding joy, fun and delight in the little things children do, so I love my job! It could be seeing a 10 year old feeling awesome because they crushed me at Monopoly, a 5 year old 300% involved in building a marble roller coaster, and as a mom, I totally appreciate the quiet peace of little infant snores. I like to swim, bike ride, enjoy sports and arts and crafts. I am used to travelling with families and finding ways to occupy and enrich the childrens' hours without using screens, while in a limited environment e.g. hotel room. My undergraduate degree was in Theater and I love to bring that creativity and humor to my work. I have spent many overnights with infants and children. Worked for a few years within the public school system. I am trained in RIE and infant care. We have recently returned to Roanoke to be nearer to my elderly parents, and I looking for work within the Roanoke area. I have references here and in California. Please feel free to reach out. Have a beautiful day. 🙏 Thank you. Jennie
