Dieira H., Nanny in Palmyra, VA 22963 with 22 years of paid experience

My first experience in childcare was as camp counselor for kids ages kindergarten through rising 4th grade . I helped make the meals for the campers and I was responsible for leading group meetings and group activities with them including taking them to the pool. I loved being a camp counselor so much I began to babysit for numerous families and I have copies of recommendation letters to give if needed. I began working as a preschool teacher aid in april of 2015 and began as a lead teacher in october of 2015. Since then I have moved on to becoming a private nanny to three amazing children while working part time as a teacher's aide at Old Dominion, I have also become cpr certified and have experience in caring for higher number of children at one time which has equipped me with the ability to think fast on my feet. I love working with children because I am a kid at heart and its fun to see their imaginations at work. Plus my favorite babysitting activities are reading,baking,and cooking.

Selena L., Nanny in Palmyra, VA 22963 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Selena, and I’m a 20-year-old online college student at Piedmont University. Caring for children has always been a huge part of my life. Growing up with a single mother, I helped raise my younger siblings from a very young age, which naturally taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for children with love and structure. Over the years, I’ve gained experience babysitting for cousins, close family friends, and through private nanny positions. I’ve also mentored school-aged children and worked at a trampoline park in Charlottesville, where I spent a lot of time supervising and interacting with kids in a fun but safe environment. These experiences helped me learn how to connect with children of all ages while still maintaining clear boundaries and discipline when needed. I truly love working with kids and creating a positive, supportive environment where they feel safe, happy, and encouraged to be themselves. I’m very patient, kind, and nurturing, but I also understand the importance of structure, respect, and consistency. In addition to childcare, I’m a great cook and enjoy preparing meals and snacks for families. I’m also very organized and happy to help with cleaning and keeping the home tidy. I’ve been CPR certified for several years through previous work requirements and will be renewing my certification soon. I’m passionate about helping families however I can, whether that means keeping kids engaged, helping with routines, or simply being a reliable extra set of hands. I absolutely adore children and animals, and I hope to be a mother one day myself. For now, I’m just excited to support families and care for their little ones with the same love and attention I would give my own.

Ashley has been watching my daughter for about 6 months now and she is hands down the BEST nanny/sitter we have ever had. She is super cooperative, flexible, and is incredible at keeping up with the constant changes in the toddler phase. She is like family to us and we would recommend her to anyone!
