More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I began babysitting at age 14, sitting for the same family for several years until their children were old enough to not need me anymore (sad, but inevitable!). At the same age I volunteered at my local elementary school, helping out in their preschool classrooms. I began working at the Little Dolphin School in Westbrook, Maine in June of 2020, and continue to work there whenever I am on break. My position is an assistant teacher, where I am in classrooms of children from 4 months old to 7 years old.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Fairy house building, tag games, scavenger hunts, and more!
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is being able to provide your child with a feeling of security, while still having fun and trying new things!
My experience with special needs children...
At the daycare and early education center I work at I work with special needs children every day. This includes but is not limited to children on the Autism spectrum, with ADHD, ODD, and anger management issues. Additionally, my sister is on the Autism spectrum. Growing up alongside her has given me insight, empathy, and strategy when working with special needs children.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Not necessarily a nannying moment, but I was coloring with a girl in a pre-k classroom as we were waiting for her to be picked up, and when her mom walked in, the girl tells her that I’m Miss. Ava. Her mother then says “Oh, that’s the name you gave the doll you got for Christmas!”. It was a little victory, but I was proud nevertheless!

Part-Time Nanny Available in Blacksburg, VA: Julianne C.
Hello my name is Julianne! I am 17 years old and have loved taking care of kids since I was 7! I always wanted to become a babysitter or nanny so right when I turned 11 I got my babysitters certificate from RedCross training programs. I am willing to work part-time or full-time jobs. I am energetic and outgoing and will match the kids energy. I have taken care of kids from newborns to 10 year olds! I have multiple references if needed, and I work a semi-daycare job at Blacksburg Christian Fellowship during the fall and winter to spring. I always make sure to follow parents rules and boundaries and ask a bunch of questions just so everything is clear to me! I always take my babysitting jobs very seriously and try to do them the very best I can! If the parents allow it I like to bring multiple items I make to play games, depending on their age groups, that stimulate creativity and fun with the kids.
Live-In Full-Time Nanny Available in Blacksburg, VA: Aesha H.
Hello! My name is Aisha and I am 21 years old! I was born in Syria but I have lived in the United States my entire life. I have experience working in women’s health and I worked closely with pregnant patients! My hobbies include reading next to windows, taking questionably long walks, and eating cuisines from around the world. I attend the University of Virginia but I am in the process of taking some time off to afford finishing my degree in chemistry. I have always been great with children considering my grandmother had 7 children and I am one of her 50+ grandchildren. What I lack in experience, I will make up for in dependability and willingness to go above and beyond in professional settings.
