Find experienced nannies in Elkton, VA

Hi! I’m Ollie, a fun-loving Auntie and experienced Nanny. My child care experience ranges from newborns to teens, including children with disabilities, in home and daycare settings for the past ten years. I approach each assignment with curiosity, taking note and asking questions to ensure a positive experience for everyone. I strive to establish trust and routine with the children in my care, by asking them questions, reading books, and leading developmentally appropriate activities and games. More about me: I am First Aid/CPR trained, fluent in American Sign Language, and have a reliable vehicle. I spend my down time hiking, reading, baking, roller skating, and making pottery at a local studio. I work weekday mornings as a lunch lady in a middle school, offering babysitting services every weekend and on weekdays after 1:00 pm. If your family is searching for a friendly & reliable babysitter in the Harrisonburg area, I would love to hear from you! 🌟

I am currently working in the mental health field, as a Resident in Counseling. I previously worked as a school counselor and will heading back to the schools this fall. So, I am looking for a temporary part time summer position beforehand. I love the outdoors, beach and time with family! I love working with children, this has been a huge part of my life since high school. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I have experience with babysitting and nannying children, varying from 6 months old to age 12. I have assisted with homework help, preparing meals, bedtime and light cleaning around the house.

Hello, I have been working part-time as a babysitting/nannying for 2 families. Due to my clients' life-changes, I am again available full-time or part-time to support the right family/ies. I have a Bachelor's Degree, CPR, First Aid, and all clearances. I most enjoy taking care of newborns, but find that I enjoy each stage of growth when the bond has grown from infancy. I value learning as a priority, reflected by 13 years of commitment to schooling three of my now adult children. What a blessing. I am proud of them all as two of the three have graduated from college. And the other, along with her husband, has brought my dear grandson into my life. I am a nurturer, who loves to learn new things myself, so it comes naturally to explore the world with those I influence. I enjoy teaching, play the piano, sing, draw, paint, cook, bake, read, knit, and create new, fun experiences. I am willing to give overnight care to newborns to give parents a good night of sleep several times per week if/or as needed. References are available on request. I hope to learn more about your family. Kendra

Hi, I am Avery! I have absolutely loved children ever since I was little. I also have many siblings, so I am very used to kids. I started being a sitter for my neighbors when I was about 13 or 14 and have babysat more and more ever since then! It is something I love doing!

Hello Parents! I am available to dote on your Little One/Ones just like your Auntie….like family! About me: I started my journey of working with Littles when the director of my child’s preschool recognized my uncanny ability to connect with the Littles at drop off, pick up and as a volunteer playground chaperone. This ultimately led to an assistant teaching position. This was a surprising development as I had been an Account Executive for a Ladies Sportswear company in NYC. For 18 years I was the owner/operator of an award-winning indoor playground specifically designed for Five & Under located North of Boston. We also offered Mommy/Daddy & Me music and art classes as well as fabulous birthday parties. It was a blast! After a few moves we have recently landed in Harrisonburg where my husband is the Morning Show Host of a local radio station. We have 4 adult children living in 4 different states. I am an animal lover with 1 dog and 3 cats. I have extensive experience with new borns, infants, toddlers and preschoolers. I take instructions well and am a great communicator. In addition to being reliable and honest, I am energetic, young-at-heart and fun! I know how difficult it is to find that special someone to come into your home and care for your precious one. I have many references available to put you at ease. Please reach out if are looking for a new family member rather than just a nanny:) Have a great day! Madeleine

Hi, I’m Adriana and I love kids! I studied Preschool Education but my passion and true purpose is taking care of babies, from infants to toddlers. In general, I really enjoy taking care of children in their homes and have done it professionally since 2014 with kids of all ages (0-14). I’m patient, caring, knowledgeable and creative. If you’re interested in chatting more about my experience, tell me what you’re looking for or to book my services, feel free to contact me anytime!

Hi! My name is Katie, and I have several years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I began volunteering in my church nursery and childcare programs at the age of 12, which helped me develop a strong foundation in patience, responsibility, and caring for children in a safe and nurturing environment. As the oldest of four siblings, I also naturally grew into a caregiver role at home, helping with daily routines, schoolwork, and supervision. Professionally, I have worked in both a daycare setting and at a resort where I interacted with families and children regularly. Through these experiences, I have worked with children as young as 4 weeks old up to 14 years old. I am comfortable handling a wide range of needs including bottle feeding, diaper changes, playtime activities, homework help, and maintaining structure and routines. I am known for being dependable, calm under pressure, and very attentive to children’s needs. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident. I am currently looking for babysitting or nannying opportunities where I can continue doing what I love, caring for children and supporting families.

I love working with kids and want to work in a hospital with children once I graduate. I currently work in a daycare and I have coached youth cheer and youth volleyball teams. I also love pets so if you have pets that is no problem! Also, I have two younger siblings that I help take care of quite often.

Hi families! I’m a high school special education teacher located in Richmond, VA by day and a fun, reliable babysitter on evenings and weekends. I have over 6 years of professional childcare experience and have been nannying and babysitting even longer. I am also CPR/First Aid certified! Working in special education has made me patient, creative, and calm under pressure, and I’m comfortable supporting a wide range of needs while helping every child feel confident and cared for. When I babysit, I love keeping kids engaged with arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, games, and imaginative activities. I’m dependable, safety-focused, and great with communication, so you can enjoy your time out knowing your kids are happy and in good hands! 😊

Hi! I am a recent college graduate from JMU who is living in Harrisonburg and looking to help out families :) I have provided care for local families and those living closer to an hour away. I like working with kids because I like getting to experience lots of joyful, simplistic interactions and providing teaching moments. I love how working with kids is rewarding for everyone all around. I can allow a parent/caregiver to feel comfortable putting their children in reliable hands while I serve as a role model and engage in activities. I started working with kids my freshman year of high school. I have been working with kids for nine years. I have watched children from 20+ different families from ages 4 mos-11 years across various settings. I have experience watching children at my own home, parent/caregiver's home, church, hotels, and wedding venues. In addition, I've spent time substitute teaching for preschool-middle school classes. I am certified in CPR and first aid. In my spare time, I like to do anything outside such as going on long walks, playing spikeball and pickleball, and going hiking! I also love baking. My skills include patience, communication, and organization.
