I have been caring for children for over 20 years. I have a degree in Elementary Education and experience with newborns and multiples. I am currently looking for one time & occasional jobs during the week in the evening (after 5 pm) or anytime on the weekend, including overnights. I have a background check, motor vehicle check and references I can share with you upon request.

As a nanny during the week I do everything for my nanny family from managing their households to caring for and cooking for their children. At this time I am working as a nanny during the week so I am unavailable during the day m-f. I have experience as a nanny with ages 1-12 and experience working in child care centers as an infant teacher, wobbler/toddler teacher and as a 2's teacher. I am available to do everything from babysitting on evenings to weekends to some overnights. I have worked with children who have special needs including the autism spectrum and also have worked with twins of all ages. Also- a little bit about me. I am 28 and have been nannying on and off for 6 years and have also worked full time in child care centers and schools for 6 years. I am a mom to two beautiful daughters who I do not bring with me to babysitting jobs and a wife to my partner of 8 years. I have brightly colored hair and love to play outside and go on adventures. :) References available after interview or hire, I don't want my references to be overwhelmed by calls. Thank you for understanding.

I started babysitting at the young age of 10. I then became a Sunday School teacher in my church. During college, I worked as a teacher's assistant in the OSU child care center. I have a bachelors in early childhood development and have achieved my masters in education. I worked as a pre-k teacher, kindergarten teacher, and substituted for grades pre-k to 12th grade. People have always said I have a special gift with children. I enjoy helping your child develop emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Hello! My name is Janiel, and I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic sitter with a genuine passion for working with children. I have hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, and I love creating safe, fun, and engaging environments where kids can learn and grow. I’m certified in CPR and First Aid, and I’m confident in handling emergencies with calmness and care. I have experience with meal preparation, light housekeeping, diaper changes, homework help, and bedtime routines. I’m also comfortable with pets, and I don’t mind lending a hand with school drop-offs/pickups or occasional errands if needed. I enjoy planning creative activities—whether that’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, story time, or learning games—so kids stay entertained while also building new skills. Most importantly, I value open communication with parents and consistency with family routines, so you can feel confident your child is well cared for. My goal is to provide dependable childcare that gives parents peace of mind and children a safe, supportive, and fun space. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted part of your child’s life!

My name is Kara Moody. I recently graduated from The Ohio State University with a bachelors degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences. I will be taking one year off from my graduate studies before returning to school. I have been babysitting for families for about 4 years now and when I saw your job posting I thought that it might be the perfect position for me. I have experience with all age ranges of children but especially infant-12 years as the families I have babysat for the most often have had children in those age ranges including boys and girls. I enjoy being hands on with children while interacting with them and learning the things they enjoy to do which helps pass the time while their parents are away more enjoyable for them. Some things I enjoy doing are arts/crafts, reading, being in the outdoors, and cooking. I enjoy cooking healthy meals for the little ones and if old enough letting them become hands on as well. Aside from all of this I enjoy taking children to the park, the zoo, the pool, and COSI if allowed by the parents. Thank you for reviewing my profile and please feel free to reach out.

Hi, I’m Lisa. I raised three children on my own, and they’re now successful adults. I also have experience in regular daycare settings and in-home childcare, which gives me a solid, real-world understanding of children at every stage. I’m calm, patient, and attentive. I handle routines, transitions, and big emotions with consistency and common sense. I engage with children, and focus on creating a safe, steady, and supportive environment. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and a non-drinker. I have a background check and references available. I enjoy cooking and baking with children and using time in the kitchen as a fun learning experience. Baking naturally teaches measuring, counting, and following directions, while cooking together encourages responsibility and creativity. I’m also a magazine-published cook, and I’m happy to prepare dinner for families when needed. Children are welcome to help if they’re interested. I’m comfortable providing date-night care, overnights, and extended care including weekends. I’m also very comfortable with pets and happy to help with basic pet care. I’m flexible with my schedule and work closely with parents to accommodate their needs. I respect your home, your routines, and your expectations. If you’re looking for experienced, dependable childcare from someone who truly understands children and brings added value to your home, I’d be happy to connect.
