A little bit about me

I have 7 years of paid experience working with children of all ages and abilities, including roles as a childcare worker and swim instructor. I’ve spent 5 years as a Special Olympics soccer coach for the Area 2 Virginia Beach team and have worked at several summer camps supporting children with autism. I am also a registered behavioral technician working in home supporting behavioral needs for children on the spectrum! Caring for children is something I’m deeply passionate about, especially creating a safe, patient, and encouraging environment where every child feels seen, supported, and confident in themselves. I’m currently a senior undergraduate student studying health sciences at ODU planning to pursue a doctorate in pediatric occupational therapy, and my academic background has strengthened my understanding of child development, sensory needs, and individualized care. I bring this knowledge, along with genuine enthusiasm and reliability, into every role I take on as a sitter.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Registered behavioral technician in home, Swim instructor (continued seasonally), long term nanny for 3 children for 1+ years, date night sitter, a helping hand childcare services for military families in hampton roads!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love teaching kiddos lots of fun games, crafts, and providing exciting and fun experiences during my time with them!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Getting to build connections and make kids feel seen and heard during their everyday life is very important to me. To be their friend and help care for them is a different kind of trust they have for you when coming into their home and it’s not something that should be taken for granted! I love the new experiences I get to make and learn from at every house I go to!

My experience with special needs children...

Very extensive, I have an adopted older brother with F.A.S and have worked with kids of all unique abilities and ages for most of my life. I am a registered behavioral technician and have taught swim lessons to children with all different abilities as well, and have served various populations in summer camps and school programs in my degree!

The most important part about being a nanny...

My nanny kids and I would go to the pool every morning during the summer to swim and play until the afternoon and one day we came home and wanted to draw, but weren’t sure what, so we took a box of chalk outside and drew the entire solar system with planets and stars for hours in the driveway until it was time for dinner and they used the entire box of chalk up! They were covered head to toe in chalk and had so much fun that we went and bought a second box the next day to create pictures with!

Ariane D. - Seeking Work in Norfolk

Full-Time Nanny Available in Norfolk, VA: Ariane D.

I am a dedicated, kind, and hardworking childcare provider who naturally builds warm, loving connections with children and families. My foundation in childcare began in Brazil, where I cared for my nieces and nephews and worked as an occasional nanny. I then moved to the United States, where I completed two successful years as an Au Pair—caring for a family with three children during my first year, and later caring for an infant.
My previous Host Mom shared that her baby would get excited every morning just seeing me, reflecting the deep bond and trust I build with the children in my care. Having supported families of different sizes, I feel fully adaptable and completely comfortable caring for any number of children. Being bilingual in Portuguese and English allows me to communicate seamlessly with parents while creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for kids.
