My name is Lily Wood and I am a 26 year old Charlottesville local. Besides when I studied in Richmond at VCU, I have lived here my whole life. I am very familiar with the area and I love staying active in the c'ville community. I have been baby sitting for at least ten years, starting out just for my family/cousins, but quickly by the time I was 16 or 17, I was babysitting more often for family friends and families in the neighborhood. Since then I have met various families in the area who I help out frequently with childcare. I have experience with children ages 0-12, special needs such as down syndrome, and in large group settings of up to 10 children at once. I enjoy working in the child care field because its something that comes naturally for me. I love being active and outside playing with kids, as well as indoor activities like arts and crafts. I think that the sense of joy and creativity that children have is very inspiring. I think it is important to stay active and involved when it comes to child care. I enjoy taking children on adventures like to Jump cville, or the Rivanna Trail, and I am always up for new experiences. I have very reliable transportation with a spacious car that fits up to five. I am available to pick up children from school and for after school activities. My hours are flexible and my weekends are always free. I am willing to stay late nights if needed. Im also a great cook and I am always available to make dinner or lunches ect. Im available for last minute childcare services and understand that things can change. I am very reliable and trustworthy and am confident in my child care services. I look forward to staying an active and available member in the the Charlottesville child care community!
