Hi! I'm Sienna, a responsible, energetic, and compassionate college student at George Mason University studying Conflict Analysis & Resolution in the Honors College. I've spent years working with children in a variety of settings and genuinely love creating fun, safe, and engaging environments where kids can thrive. For the past six summers, I've served as a camp counselor at Serve Camp, supervising groups of 20+ children ages 8–14, leading activities, resolving conflicts, coordinating schedules, and ensuring every child felt included and supported. I've also volunteered as a counselor for Vacation Bible School and worked extensively with children through community service programs and youth organizations. In addition to my childcare experience, I've spent over a decade coaching and volunteering with youth gymnastics programs, helping young athletes build confidence, discipline, and teamwork skills. My leadership experience includes mentoring younger students, organizing community outreach projects, and earning the Gold President's Volunteer Service Award for my commitment to serving others. Parents describe me as patient, dependable, creative, and attentive. Whether we're building blanket forts, helping with homework, baking cookies, playing outside, reading stories, or tackling bedtime routines, I strive to make every child feel valued, safe, and cared for. I have reliable transportation, a flexible schedule, and experience caring for children of various ages and personalities. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and provide a positive, trustworthy presence in your child's life!

Hello! I’m a 25 year old preschool teacher and babysitter ready to connect with new families as a nanny. My childcare experience goes back over a decade! I am trained in play based education, Montessori learning, and conscious discipline. I’ve also worked closely with special needs children, specifically with ADHD, autism, and hearing loss. I enjoy crafts, music, and learning languages. I’m currently practicing American Sign Language. I truly love working with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. I’d be thrilled to take children on outings as I love to spend time outside and I am safe and respectful driver. My overall goal is to ensure that every child in my care is safe, healthy, happy, and practicing age appropriate independence. If you’re unsure about my fit as your nanny, I’d be happy to meet briefly as an introduction. Thank you for your interest in me, and I hope to meet you soon!

I have babysat for the ages 1-10. At varying times of day (morning, lunchtime, dinner/bedtime)I have a lot of younger cousins (aged 2-11 currently) so I’ve babysat them a lot, having up to 5 kids at once. I’ve worked in PWCS as a summer intern with elementary aged students for two summers. From 2023-2025 I was a summer camp counselor at a dance studio/playground called All That and Jazz. With another counselor we would have groups of 15-25 kids ages varying 5-12 years old.
