Hello! My name is Whitney, and I am currently a junior at VCU. I travel between ALX- RVA. I'm excited for this year and eager to help families in need! Over the past eight years, I have worked as a babysitter and nanny, caring for children of all ages. Growing up, I acted as a second mother to my younger cousins, enhancing my childcare skills. Additionally, I spent two years as a swim instructor, which taught me the importance of patience and kindness when working with kids. Also served as a tutor & mentor for five young girls. I am fluent in both English and Twi and am First Aid/CPR Certified, ensuring your children's safety. I love spending time with kids, engaging them in fun and educational activities. I understand that each child is unique, with their own needs and preferences, and I am committed to meeting those individual requirements. I am happy to provide references or arrange a meeting to discuss your family's needs. I am excited about the possibility of working with you!

Whitney has been with been a part of our family for the past 4 years and has becoming an older sister to my son. She is attentive, always ensuring that my child’s needs are met and is also incredibly reliable and communicative which gives me peace of mind. She is extremely responsible, handling every task with care, from helping with homework to meal prep, all while creating a safe and fun environment. One of the qualities I appreciate most about Whitney is her true compassion. She truly care about my son , and it shows in how she listens to him and handle any emotional needs with patience and kindness. Additionally, Whitney is a flexible college student always willing to adjust to our family’s schedule changes, which has been a tremendous help. She’s a well rounded great individual !
