Alana K., Nanny in Mechanicsville, VA 23111 with 8 years of paid experience

I’ve been providing trusted child care since I was 10 years old. I truly adore children and prioritize creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where they feel heard, supported, and free to learn and grow. I am respectful of parents’ wishes and strive to ensure they feel completely comfortable and confident when leaving their children in my care. Building trust and connection comes naturally to me—I am patient, empathetic, and always attentive to a child’s unique needs. Whether it’s finding creative ways to engage them through activities and crafts, helping with new ways to approach chores, reading stories at bedtime, or diffusing tantrums with care and understanding, I approach every situation with warmth and positivity. Friends, family and those on Sittercity have frequently trusted me with childcare (including watching multiple children at the same time, and/or those with special needs), and I am often praised for my attentiveness and ability to build strong relationships with children. If you’re looking for a caring and reliable sitter who will create a fun and enriching experience for your little ones, I’d love to connect! I have a bachelors degree, and have been in the design industry for over 18 years. When I'm not working you'll find me spending time outdoors, snuggling with my two rescue cats (who are now 11 and 14), visiting family (including my 93-year-old grandmother who is still traveling, hiking and skiing!), exploring Richmond's festivals and restaurants, or working on some craft or home project.
