Hi there! My name is Lynn Birckhead, and I’d be delighted to help with your childcare needs. I bring a unique blend of professional and personal experience to the table—I’m a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and currently work as a Practice Manager at a busy family medicine office right here in Charlottesville. Before my nursing career, I spent 12 wonderful years as a nanny for two families, caring for their little ones until they grew up and headed off to school. Now, I'm thrilled to share that I'm about to become a grandmother for the very first time in just a couple of months—so caring for children is not just part of my past and present, but my future, too! I truly enjoy spending time with kids—reading stories, playing games, and simply making sure they feel safe, happy, and heard. I'm typically available on weekends and most evenings with a Read more little notice, and I’d love the opportunity to support your family. Looking forward to connecting with you! Warmly, Lynn

Lynn has been an absolute blessing! I couldn’t imagine a better person to watch our baby Max. She is timely, professional, loving and trustworthy. Max grins from ear to ear and bounces with happiness to see her and he is always in the best mood when we come home. She has followed all our parenting requests perfectly, and we have never felt any tension or conflict regarding our parenting style (timing of naps, how and when to feed him, etc.). She has also been great with our anxious dog, who enjoys her visits as well. Absolutely perfect!

Lynn was fantastic working with our 1 year old son - she was kind, patient and very caring. She was also very communicative throughout the process. We will definitely be reaching back out next time we’re in the area!
