Brooke L.

Hello! Thanking you for reading my bio. My name is Brooke, and I am 21 years old. My whole 21 years, I have grown up in Columbus, OH. I am going into my senior of College working on my Bachelors in Science in Nursing at the University of Dayton. When I was younger, I had a fantastic babysitter, which led me to carry her loving, thoughtful influence into my work. Previously I have worked with various ages from 6 months-14 years old. I am experienced with working with more than one kid at a time. I am also CPR and First-Aid Certified since I am also a lifeguard when I am not babysitting. I also have a swim instructor certification and nursing aide (STNA). Being a middle child growing up between two boys, I am always outside playing sports and hide and seek. I grew up playing sports which include soccer, basketball, and gymnastics, which all come in handy when playing outside with kids. Along with playing outside, I love board games, crafts, hide and seek, and more. I hope we get the chance to connect soon!

I wish we could keep Brooke all year! Brooke was our summer nanny and she was always timely, helpful, and tidy. Her ability to engage our girls, even our pre-teens, was amazingly helpful and wonderful to see. I highly recommend Brooke for any of your childcare needs.

I have been a professional nanny in the Dayton area for the past six years, and I am currently seeking a new position as my current nanny kiddos have grown older and become more self-sufficient. I hold CPR and First Aid certifications, have a reliable and safe vehicle, and am comfortable working in households with pets. My experience includes caring for children with special needs, managing multiple children simultaneously, and providing support for children ranging in age from 1 to 12 years. I specialize in implementing engaging, age-appropriate activities that foster both development and creativity. I am also open to household management responsibilities and can provide excellent references upon request. Currently, I am pursuing a degree in Child Psychology through online coursework, allowing me to maintain a flexible schedule. I am deeply committed to creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel secure, valued, and supported. My professional values include fostering creativity, individuality, structure, and open communication with the families I serve. I am seeking a long-term position where I can collaborate with a family to create a cohesive, supportive dynamic. As a career nanny, I adhere to professional standards and require guaranteed hours, paid time off, sick leave, and other industry-aligned benefits. If you believe I may be a good fit for your family, I would be delighted to discuss your needs and how I can contribute to your household. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience!

I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting, date nights, and part-time opportunities. With 7+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages, I love creating a fun, safe, and positive environment where children can thrive. I’m CPR certified, dependable, and very hands-on—whether we’re doing arts and crafts, playing outside, or tackling homework together. I take pride in being attentive and adapting to each child’s personality and needs. I’m also great with pets and happy to help with them too. Looking forward to meeting your family!

Sydney was awesome! She was super responsive, showed up early, and was flexible when we came home a little later than expected. Would definitely ask Sydney to babysit again!

Hi I’m Lizzie! I am born and raised in Fort Worth, a TCU alum🐸💜, and a full time baby snuggler (aka a NICU nurse 👶🏼🍼🤍) I’ve been babysitting since high school and kept it going through college and now into adult life — it’s always been something I genuinely enjoy! I also taught swim lessons to babies and kiddos at Elmer Swim School, so I’m super comfortable with all ages (and pool noodles 🏊🏻♀️😁) Currently, I work as a NICU nurse, which means I’m trained in CPR, BLS, and NRP — and I spend my work days keeping tiny humans safe, calm, and cozy. I’m also great with routines, diaper changes, and jumping in wherever I’m needed. Outside of work, I love cooking, cleaning, baking, and doing fun DIYs with kids — especially memory keepsakes like handprint art, milestone crafts, to a little bit of slime (always mess-contained and cleaned up, promise!) 🍪✂️🧼 If you’re looking for a sitter who’s reliable, upbeat, and really loves what she does, I’d love to meet your family💗💖!

We are so grateful for Lizzie! She has been absolutely wonderful with our newborn and two older kids. She is patient, caring, and attentive, always making sure each child feels safe and cared for. Our newborn is comfortable with her gentle touch, and our older kids love spending time with her. Lizzie is reliable, trustworthy, and truly goes above and beyond. We feel at ease knowing our children are in such good hands and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

I am currently (as of September, 2014) an aide working at a preschool program in Newton, MA. In December I received my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education from Boston College. I also possess an undergraduate degree in Psychology from UMass Amherst. Prior to my current position, I have much experience working with children of all ages. I was a summer club diving coach for 7 years in Ohio, worked for one summer at The Goddard School in Dayton Ohio (working with infants-12 years), and for the past two summers I have been a full time nanny in Winchester for two children who are now ages 9 and 11. My passion has always been to work with young children and I will continue to pursue a career in education. I am reliable, outgoing, and energetic and I am comfortable working with children of all ages!

Hi! My name is Abby and I am 22 years old. I live in Riverside, Ohio, and I am willing to travel about 15 miles out. I am a mom and I work at a 5-Star rated preschool and daycare! I have 4 years of experience with early childhood education. Right now I am open to evening and weekend opportunities. Some words I would use to describe my ethic would be patient, nurturing, compassionate, communicative, engaging, and laid back. I try my best to make sure any and all responsibilities are met while simultaneously keeping the kids entertained and happy. Any animals won't be an issue, I am pet friendly. I am First Aid & CPR & AED certified. I have the most experience with children ages nb-4y, but I also have experience with children ages 5-12. I also have experience with children who have high support needs (although I do not have formal training). If you are interested in me just shoot me a message and I’ll try my best to get back to you in a timely manner. I hope you consider me!

We had Abby sit our 3 year old and 20 month old a couple times, once for a date night and also for a doctor’s appointment. She arrived early and was very nice. She didn’t have much interaction with our youngest (he was sleeping most of the time on both occasions). However, our 3 year old became comfortable with her very quickly and she was great with him.
Jayonna C.

Hi, my name is Jayonna, and I am a 20-year-old recent graduate of Wayne High School and a third-year student at Wright State University, majoring in Elementary Education. I am the second oldest of ten children, which has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for children of all ages in everyday life. My childcare experience includes babysitting my younger siblings, working as an assistant teacher in daycare centers, and supporting children at summer camps. I genuinely enjoy working with children and value building meaningful connections with them while creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. In regard to transportation, I want to be transparent that I do not currently have a car. While I am unable to provide transportation for school or activities that require driving, I am more than willing to walk children to and from school or activities that are within walking distance. I kindly ask that this not overshadow my qualifications, dedication, or the level of care and responsibility I bring as a childcare provider. I hope families will consider my experience, reliability, and passion for working with children and not overlook my application due to transportation limitations. I am confident that I would be a positive and valuable asset to any family I work with.
