A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Susanna Shedd and I am a senior at the University of Lynchburg. I am a pre-med student with hopes of working in pediatric and neonatal care as a physician. I have worked in childcare since 2020 starting as a Sunday School teacher for ages 2-6 before primarily working in the nursery (6 weeks-18 months). Every summer since 2024 I have worked as a summer nanny with Ghent Caregivers in Virginia Beach, VA. I have loved working with them and continue to work with them every summer, but I am looking for a part-time and/or occasional nanny position for the school year. My availability is in the mornings and afternoons and varies depending on the school semester, but I promise to work with you to find a schedule that works for your family! I love working with kids and would be honored to serve your family!

"Having worked closely with her over the past 5 years (3 of them as her supervisor), I can state with confidence that she is truly wonderful childcare provider with any age group. She has served as an infant provider as well as a teacher for ages 2-3. Susanna’s consistently reliable. As a childcare provider, she possesses a wonderful ability to connect with children of any age. She also maintains a very safe environment for the children. Beyond her technical skills, Susanna has a great personality and always has a positive attitude. She is a dedicated team player who collaborates effortlessly with the team and parents, listens intently, and engages with all ages. Her warmth, professionalism, and enthusiasm make her an absolute joy to work with. The children adore her. Susanna would be a tremendous asset to any organization or family. I recommend her without reservation and am certain she will exceed your expectations. Sincerely, Jan Chapdelaine Childcare Coordinator HarvestVA Church"

More About Me

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

I have volunteered as a guide leader for my church’s VBS every summer and have been the head person in charge of 3 different age groups [phone number hidden]).

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I have done all sorts of activities such as going outside for a walk or to the park, painting or doing art activities, baking, crafts, playing pretend, and ultimately utilizing whatever toys are already in the home.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I think the top priority as a nanny is the child’s safety and providing a loving environment. Ultimately, I adjust my nanny style to the parents style since they are the primary caregivers!
