A little bit about me

Hi there!

I’m Ms. T of Tiny T’s Childcare, a fun and reliable babysitter with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages—from infants to teens. I am opening my books for new clients.

I’m available for occasional care, date nights, weekday evenings after 5pm, and overnights. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and love creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment so kids feel comfortable and parents can relax.

Before the first day of care, a meet & greet and trial run will be conducted, and a contract with Tiny T’s Childcare must be signed to ensure clear expectations and the best care experience for everyone. Pricing for occasional care starts at $18/hour.

NANNY CARE STARTS AT $30 (non negotiable)

If you’re looking for dependable care with a personal, loving touch, I’d be happy to connect!

Best,
Ms. T💛

"I have used Taja multiple times for my babies, ages 5 and 2.5. She is very reliable, flexible, and sweet. I most certainly like that she follows my kids schedules and enforces the structure that I request. My kids always enjoy having her babysit which in turn always makes my mama heart happy. I also like that she sends out her schedules for the months ahead so I can plan some date nights or corporate events. She also offers great rates, especially if needing childcare overnight. She is also very communicative via pictures and updates while I am away from my kids. Highly recommend if you are in need of a full time nanny or just your go to babysitter."

She still watches our children on days we need. I never have to worry because I know she does right by our children, and she loves and cares for them when she is with them. She will always be a part of our family, no matter what. She has been with us since 2020 and has seen our family continue to grow. So thankful for her."

Alexandra W. - Seeking Work in Chesapeake

Full-Time Nanny Available in Chesapeake, VA: Alexandra W.

I'm a 17 year old high-school student! I just moved to the area from Austin Tx due to some unfortunate circumstances. I would like to add before i continue that i currently do not have a valid Virginia drivers license, although I do absolutely have reliable transportation anytime. I enjoy being busy, and occupied. I currently do home-school so my availability is unreservedly flexible, and I would love to get back into work here! I grew up with my neighbors who had 2 kids when I was around the age of 9-10. I observed and learned how to properly care for these children, considering I helped take care of them a lot. I continued to babysit for their parents until I moved here. Now there's three happy/healthy kids whom I miss so so much. I love working with children/people, and I think its one of the best learning experiences anybody could undergo. I would love to be able to help a family again, the same way I used to :)
