My name is Chatham Lovette and I am looking to work with a family that I can build a lasting relationship with! I just moved back to Virginia from Florida (I am from Richmond, but have lived all over). I have primarily worked as a college professor for the past 10 years, though I have extensive experience caregiving, nannying, and educating at all levels with diverse clients/families, age groups, and needs (including working with children with alternative learning styles); I have worked as a high school teacher, preschool teacher, personal family assistant, nanny/caregiver, pet sitter and housekeeper. I love working with children of all ages :) A little about myself: I'm 33, and I am currently completing my PhD in philosophy + gender studies (my research is on trauma within queer communities), as well as my MSW (in order to enroll at the IIPT's psychodynamic psychotherapy certification training program in 2025 with Read more the hopes of transitioning from academia to clinical practice). I have a Belgian Malanois/GSD rescue puppy named Vincent that is my pride and joy (though I'm an animal lover all around). I'm a published poet and arts organizer, and I love all things literary! I have been very fortunate to have worked with amazing families/children in the past (all of whom I still keep in touch with!), and I am hoping to cultivate a similar dynamic now in whichever family I end up working alongside :) If you'd like to chat more, please get in touch! LOR and background checks all available upon request.
