Find experienced nannies in Penn Laird, 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! 🌟

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

My name is Lauren Keaney. I am 19 years old and I am currently a sophomore at NOVA; I also work part-time at a local bakery. I am the oldest of four children, and have many years of babysitting experience with children of all ages! I have references upon request, and would love to hear from you!

I interned as a child mentor at Amherst county public schools working with shy kids helping them to be more confident in their abilities and tell stories in front of the whole school. I really enjoyed this experience and believe that I get along with kids well!

I am a 18 year old seeking to see if babysitting is something I would enjoy. I love being around kids and taking care of them. I currently have a background check on caregiver.com I just don’t want to pay another fee for this app. I have experienced with camp light in Waynesboro Va. It is a summer camp for kids and adults who have special needs. I love doing this every year and being able to reconnect with the kids and love them as a camp counselor but also as a sibling. All the kids who come up to me say I am the one who doesn’t want to take everything to seriously and don’t feel that restricted but can be at most times. This has taught me how to control certain circumstances with tantrums and being able to find a spark in a kid. I have learned how to navigate their feelings with them together and teach proper ways to communicate their feelings instead of hands. I have as well had to get serious at times when a child has ran off or trying to hurt other kids or themselves by contacting main people head of the camp to either call parents or another option. I am currently trying to find a way to do my first aid certification and am waiting to get my cpr certification through camp light. I know how to handle dangerous situations and call 911 or take them to the hospital if needs be.
