Hi! My name is Laura and I am a dedicated, nurturing caregiver based in Fredericksburg, VA with over four years of full-time professional experience caring for children from newborn through toddler age. In my most recent position, I cared for a little girl from 3 months old through age 3 - supporting every milestone from tummy time to first steps and first words. I bring patience, consistency, and genuine love for this stage of childhood development. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to support language development in both languages and communicate openly with families What I offer: • Attentive infant and toddler care • Age-appropriate activities and play • Light housekeeping related to childcare (tidying play areas, baby laundry, meal prep for little ones) • Open, consistent communication with parents • Verified references and recommendation letters available upon request I am committed, stable, and ready to become a trusted part of your family
I have had the privilege of working with Laura for over three years. I did initially find her on care.com. You can see the prior reference. It does not fully encompass how great she is. She started taking care of my daughter at seven weeks old! She has been a blessing to our family. I cannot stress the amount of care and compassion she brings to work every day. She has been with us from the newborn to the toddler stage. She does an excellent job with the “typical” childcare activities. Our daughter is clean, and well fed, and very engaged. Where she excels has been in the extra things. She takes her to storytime, toddler, gymnastics, and is always looking for local activities that she might enjoy. She even takes her to swim class! She has assisted with potty training. She is also started teaching her numbers and letters and preparation for starting pre-K. We trust her implicitly. We also have a school-age child, and she takes care of him when he’s home sick or when he has days off from school. She also works well with his age group and included him in outings. I am very sad to lose her and our kids will miss her terribly. I hope that she ends up with a great family, and I’m happy to answer any questions anyone might have.
