About Virginia

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, As a very active mom of four grown children, I have over 20 years of childcare experience. I am CPR/First Aid Certified for infants up to adults. I have special skills and services to offer to your family such as music and art. I consider myself a modern day Mary Poppins. I believe fun and learning go hand in hand. I'm firm yet gentle with safety issues and I'm fun and silly while engaging with children. I can handle all care responsibilities. I currently work part time for a family watching their 2-year-old little girl. Job might be ending soon so I'm looking now. Before this, I was a Nanny watching twins for almost two years. I am very patient, loving, and do not take childcare as a job but as a life opportunity and privilege to help promote children's physical, mental, and emotional development. I love all animals. In fact, they're my favorite subject matter to paint :) If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for your consideration!

We can’t believe how lucky we’ve been to have Miss Ginger for almost a year! When she started my youngest was around 9 months old and had extreme separation anxiety with everyone who wasn’t me. She screamed for hours on end daily until I’d get home from work. Ginger was patient, so nurturing and sweet, and waited out this adjustment period that lasted over a month. By then both of my kids fell absolutely in love with her. Ginger arrives with crafts and toys to play with for the day, has started working on phonics with my oldest, and provides so many enriching activities. She has given us advice (when asked), and has the most gentle, kind spirit. Ginger is also so reliable and has great communication. Truly, we couldn’t ask for anyone better!
