Hi! I'm Ashley, a 23-year-old grad student in my first year of a master's program in I-O Psych , with a bachelor's degree in psychology and minors in childhood studies and communication studies. I have an older brother with 2 kids, my niece and nephew, who I watch often, so I have a lot of hands on experience with little ones. I love all ages and making sure to keep them engaged. Taking care of people and animals has always come naturally to me. I work full time at a counseling center in Newport News, and before that was a lifeguard for three years and worked at Wolf Lodge, so I'm comfortable being responsible for others' safety and staying calm under any situation. I've had dogs my whole life and now have two Yorkies, Wicket and Gizmo, so I'm completely comfortable with dogs of any size or energy level. I'm available evenings and weekends, and I care about being someone you can trust. I communicate clearly, show up on time, and keep you updated. I'd love to help your family!
Our family valued Ashley immensely, both through my children's positive experiences with her and from a working parent’s perspective once we returned. Ms. Ashley kept our children engaged and well cared for by taking them to the splash pad, engaging in craft activities, and supervising their screen time. I sincerely appreciated returning home to the few chores she completed after being away for a full day. We genuinely enjoyed having Ms. Ashley, and we plan to utilize her services again.
