More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have volunteered with a local 4-H group as a leader. This involved helping children (ages 4-12) learn about animals and how to care for them.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love being outside. I also like being creative. Sometimes I will do stuff like create a scavenger hunt where the child has to see and find certain things. Then when we get back home, we can make a craft out of the treasures. I like doing messy stuff outside. Such as painting pumpkins in the fall or painting with bubbles in the summer. I enjoy taking kids to kid friendly classes (little gym, story time, swim classes), scheduling play dates, and letting them have new fun opportunities. I like getting kids out of the house and see new things like farm parks, new playgrounds, and other play places, but I also like doing fun stuff at home like craft projects, games, and just playing and having fun.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I think the most important part of being a nanny is teaching a child. Not just stuff like letters and numbers, but stuff like how to share, how to be kind, and how to make friends.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I have had so many fun nanny moments with each child I’ve been with. Probably some of my favorites were meeting new little ones that were born after I started or hitting new milestones like walking, crawling, and talking. Each day brings a special new memory.

My first experience was babysitting at age 10... My most educational and learning was with my job at Gateway Academy, in South Carolina.. I was the lead 2year old teacher for almost 5 years. At this daycare it was run like a school, I had to make lesson plans and potty training along with lots of other things.. I watched over 20, 2 year olds...I also took care of a 27 year old angle she was.. She has downs syndrome, but I lived with her and her mother as Melissa's caregiver. That was one of the best five years in my life!!! I love children being around them makes you feel so young and blessed. Any questions please have no hesitation to phone me.

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Harrisonburg, VA: Brittany H.
Hi there! I’m Brittany, 22 years old and currently residing in Harrisonburg, VA. I am a server but I am also interning and studying to become a real estate agent one day. So, for the last 7 months is the first time in four years that I have not been working with children and I am miserable! Working with only adults is stressful and not any fun at all! I have always had many random babysitting jobs growing up or the typical summers nannying while the kids are out of school. I miss it, I truly miss being around their kind souls and free spirits. What makes me stand out is that I’m fun! I worked at a kids spa from May 2013 to April 2017 doing birthday parties (7 parties a weekend, that’s a lot of parties) and let me tell you, that was my favorite job I’ve ever had. Being able to create a space and to be able to interact with kids on their level and just embracing their childhood and having fun with them is really important to me. I am also a very nurturing individual and like to take care of people when they are sick or anytime really. I also am a little bit of a neat freak so your house wouldn’t be destroyed when you come home, it would probably be pretty tidy, which is anther benefit of hiring me as a nanny. I would love to be working with kids again sooner than later. I am not in school right now so my availability is pretty open please contact me if you need a hand!
