Hi, Iβm Talyiah! Iβm a caring, responsible, and patient sitter who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have experience caring for kids of different ages through babysitting for family members and helping with daily routines such as meal preparation, playtime, homework assistance, bedtime routines, and creating a safe, positive environment. I also have experience working with children in educational settings, which has helped me develop strong communication, patience, and problem-solving skills.I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to make each child feel comfortable, supported, and engaged while in my care. Whether itβs helping with schoolwork, planning fun activities, or simply being a dependable presence, I take pride in providing reliable and attentive care. Parents can count on me to be trustworthy, nurturing, and dedicated to their childβs well-being. I look forward to helping families and creating a fun, safe, and positive experience for both parents and children!

I have about three years of experience working in two different daycares in my hometown. After having my little one, I chose to transition into babysitting so I could stay home with her. Iβve now been babysitting for around six months and truly enjoy caring for children in a more personal, home based setting.

Hi, my name is Frances and I just finished my degree in architecture the University of Virginia this May. While I am new to Wyndy, I have been babysitting for over 7 years. When I am home from school, I regularly babysit my neighbors (ranging from 2 to 9 in age). In high school, I was a volunteer at the Botanical Gardens Summer Camps and Childrenβs Hospital. This gave me experience entertaining large groups of children and navigating kids outside of the home environment. I was also a nanny for a summer. My job involved picking up the children (3 and 5) from daycare, bathing them, making them a snack, and entertaining them until their parents returned from work. This job gave me an understanding of how to maintain a routine for little kids after a long day at school. Outside of babysitting, I was a waitress at Vino, have interned at various Architecture firms for the past 4 summers, and worked as a museum assistant for our campus museum.

I have a background as a motherβs helper in high school, a special needs attendant in college, and currently serve as a part time nanny to my 1-year-old niece, all of which have developed my confidence and comfortability in managing both childcare and household responsibilities. My duties have included, caring for children, assisting with homeschooling, preparing meals, organizing the kitchen, and handling general housework. Over the past year, I have worked in an administrative role at Chelsea Academy in Front Royal, but my primary love is working directly with children. My aim is to act as a comforting and industrious presence in the home, for both parents and children.
