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!

Janiel was such a great help to me and my daughter when I needed a sitter urgently, this was my second time with her and she has always been reliable and nurturing towards my baby girl. These days it’s really hard to find trustworthy and reliable sitters who you know will take care of your child and that was always a concern for my husband and I. Thank you for being such an attentive individual. I totally recommend her services. ??

Yesika was wonderful with Lilly from the very first visit! I could sense from the first encounter she really loves children. Lilly has a blast with Yesica . Lilly enjoys playing with her and when she is going through the upsets of being a toddler, Yesica is a calming presence . I recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter for their little ones.

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.

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.

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.

Hi! My name is Terri’Anna, and I am a responsible, compassionate, and safety-focused caregiver with a strong healthcare background, one year of babysitting experience, and firsthand experience growing up with and caring for a younger sibling with special needs. I graduated from The Ohio State University in 2024 with a degree in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and am currently enrolled at OSU as a student nurse in the graduate-entry program with a neonatal specialty. I have two years of CNA experience at The James Cancer Hospital, currently work as a Patient Care Assistant in the NICU, and have also worked as a pharmacy technician, all of which have strengthened my ability to support both children and their families during vulnerable moments. I genuinely enjoy caring for families by creating a safe, nurturing, and dependable environment where parents feel confident and supported, and children feel comfortable and cared for. I am CPR and BLS certified, patient, attentive, and eager to help meet each family’s unique needs.

Terrianna was absolutely wonderful with my daughter. She was patient, kind, and very attentive the entire time. I truly appreciated how communicative she was and how she made sure I was comfortable with everything. My daughter felt safe and cared for, which means everything to me as a parent. I would definitely recommend Terrianna to other families and would happily use her again in the future.

We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Jacinda through Sittercity while we were in town for a wedding, and I can confidently say she exceeded all our expectations. From the very first message, Jacinda was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. What immediately stood out was that she already had her background check and First Aid certification ready to go, she sent them over right away, which gave me such peace of mind. Before our trip, she asked thoughtful questions about my boys, their routines, preferences, and needs, everything you’d hope a responsible sitter would want to know. Jacinda arrived on time, gave us her ETA beforehand, and was warm and friendly from the moment she walked in. My boys took to her quickly, which made it so much easier for us to head out feeling confident and relaxed. I also really appreciated the hourly text updates she provided, as well as the detailed recap she sent after, including meals, potty times, and activities. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and truly professional on Sittercity, I highly recommend Jacinda. If we’re ever in Pittsburgh again and are in need of a sitter we would absolutely hire her again without hesitation — 10/10
