About Virginia

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'm in my mid-60's and just recently stepped down from an very fulfilling career leading a national non-profit organization. I've been crazy about kids my whole life - have 2 adult daughters and a 2. 5-year-old granddaughter. I'd describe my personality as responsible, fun, and creative. I know that kids are able to see and experience the wonders of the world. Most kids, if given the opportunity, are curious, honest, and delightful and I appreciate each child for the unique being that they are. I like to be silly but am a highly responsible adult and enjoy teaching kids new skills and learning with/from them. I'm looking for part-time work, the occasional date nights, weekends, and I can connect with kids of all ages and looking forward to connecting and meeting families here. In my spare time, I like to cook, garden, bike, hike, crafts of all types, avid reader and travel. I've lived in 7 US states and 4 countries.

Virginia is a dream come true for those of us who are forever on the hunt for an excellent babysitter. She is always on time, quick to respond, flexible, trustworthy, and helpful around the house. Most importantly, she is wonderful with my son. I feel great about leaving him in such capable and loving hands!
