Davia F., Nanny in Herndon, VA 20171 with 9 years of paid experience

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.

Marah B., Nanny in Herndon, VA 20171 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello Parents, I am a 35 years old and have been working with children since I was 14. I have experience as a nanny, house manager, personal assistant, babysitter, house sitter and pet sitter. I am the oldest of six children and have experience with special needs, food and drug allergies. I specialize in infants and toddlers and take a special interest in children with anxiety. I have worked for several families long term as well as on call, part time, and date nights. My favorite thing about watching children is watching them grow, learn and discover new and great things about the world around them. I believe that routine is very important when it comes to raising children and having a regular caregiver that knows them, their habits, their likes and dislikes makes a huge difference! I am comfortable with homework help, drop off and pick up, taking children to activities as well as inventing activities, potty training, feeding, cooking, cleaning, laundry and more. In addition to this I am also featured on the Sittercity activities blog! I very much look forward to hearing from you!

I’m the proud mother of 3 girls who are now 21 twins and 17. I am interested in working with younger children again. My twins have cerebral palsy so I became a very involved stay at home mom. I loved teaching and playing with my children as they grew up.

I enjoy being with children, they are my little friends. I love reading, coloring, singing, dancing, listening music and getting the fresh air with them outside. We can be silly and loud and we can be quite and listen the wind.

Ms. Rhonda has been an incredible support to our family. Her help with overnight care allowed me to get the rest I needed so I could show up as the best mom possible for my child. She is caring, attentive, and truly thoughtful in the way she provides care. Knowing my baby was in such capable and compassionate hands gave me complete peace of mind. I am deeply grateful for her and highly recommend her.

Amy G., Nanny in Herndon, VA 20171 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Amy! I'm very passionate about working with young children (0-5)! I enjoy engaging children in developmentally appropriate activities and taking them outside to play! Arts and crafts and sensory bins are fun to do on rainy days, or not so rainy days too! I really enjoy getting to know each of the children I work with and like to come up with activities to do with them based upon their interests. I have my bachelors degree in child and family development, a graduate level certificate called the EC-SEBRIS (early childhood socio-emotional behavior regulation intervention specialist certificate), as well as my masters in child development all from San Diego State University. I have worked with children of all ages ranging from infants and on up to thirteen year olds (with most of my experience working with infants and toddlers). I have interned in elementary schools, San Diego State University Children's Center, and head start programs before. I taught at a preschool as a toddler teacher for a year and a half. I have nannied and babysat for numerous families over the years including families with twins, multiples, and have done nanny shares before as well. Therefore, I am very comfortable working with multiple young children at a time. I am a Newborn Care Specialist trained through the Newborn Care Training Academy (NCTA) and am also a Postpartum & Infant Care Doula trained through ProDoula. I am also a pre-certified Infant Feeding Specialist (currently working on becoming certified). I do have references available upon request. Let me know if you have any questions about me, as I would love to meet up with your family and see if we are a good match!

Amy is such a caring, compassionate person. She truly believes in child development and in the basics of reading and playing. She took care of our five month old son and he fell in love with her. I would recommend her to all my friends.

Daniela came all the way across the river to MD and arrived on time, even after she hinted that the distance was further than she usually goes. She did a great job with the kids - they had a blast and she left our home in great condition!

Rachel was excellent with our 8-month old daughter. We contacted her last-minute after our Nanny had called out for the whole week with short notice, and Rachel was able to cover the whole week. Our daughter is going through a major stranger-danger phase, so there was a lot of crying in the beginning. Rachel was great at staying calm and gently forming a bond and trust with our baby. By the end of the week, our daughter was beaming every time Rachel walked in the door. We definitely hope to use her services again in the future!

Emy K., Nanny in Herndon, VA 20171 with 17 years of paid experience

I am looking for a family with active kids, full of energy, and that is ready to have a great time! Parents that wish their kids could be more active and outdoors are also welcome. :) (I also enjoy indoor activities, though!) I believe as much as kids can stay outside, playing, and distracted, the better, so they don't get bored or start missing their parents. I love to be out with kids, playground, pool, playing sports, riding a bike, chalking, playing tag, hide and seek, and enjoying the nice weather - if possible! Ps: If your kids like to learn new things, and some Portuguese (I'm from Brazil), I will be more than happy to teach them!

Emy was fabulous with our 5yo daughter and 2.5yo son! We used Emy when we traveling in DC for a weekend. She was a recommendation from a mom friend. Before arriving, she asked about their likes and dislikes. When she came, she had library books with their favorite characters and activities prepared that I mentioned they enjoyed. She is also proactive in figuring out how to make my life easier. She offered to take the kids to the park when I needed to pack for our trip back. She sent me pictures of them at the playground, having a picnic, etc. She is a great communicator. I would highly recommend her!
