Hi :)   I was a stay-at-home Mom, personal trainer and professional portrait artist. Now I am a Nanny and couldn't love my job any more because it's so rewarding. I love babies and children! Watching them grow and develop is so amazing. I raised my 4 children with the following in mind; be honest, practice manners, always say please and thank-you, wash your hands, no bad words, no hitting each other or the pets and the TV is not a baby sitter. I have been a full time Nanny/Babysitter for 8 years and always arrive with a smile and hugs. I have worked for some families 4+ years and have been given 5 star ratings by each. I have tons of experience with twins, newborn infants and toddlers. I enjoy doing crafts for creative play time, reading books, helping with music lessons, or homework. I give great hair cuts for Read more free, will help with potty training and I'll even clean up after the dog! While the babies nap I am happy to do light house keeping to keep you caught up. I am honest, professional, loving, dependable, on time and will watch sick children. I have a finger-print-proof back ground check from the FBI in addition to the Sittercity B/G check. I am Red Cross CPR-trained for adults, children & infants plus First Aid certified. I graduated from Kent State University with a bachelors degree in Fine and Professional Arts. I'm a fun babysitter with eyes in the back of my head. I keep a daily journal for the parents. While you are away you will know they are well taken care of, safe and having fun in their own home .

Linda has worked with us one day a week since August of 2016. My two boys love her! She offers creative and imaginative play. She keeps good records and follows our schedules for the day. She nurtures the boys and cares for them every minute. She is very reliable and punctual. We will continue using her as long as our situation remains the same and are so glad we found her. Please feel free to message me or email with any questions.

Linda has cared for our now four sons (ages 9 months - 7 years) part-time for the past 4 years. She has cared for two of our sons since they were infants. Linda is patient, disciplined and ever vigilant about our children's health, safety, nutrition and development. She is dependable, reliable and energetic. Creativity is never lacking with Linda around, and she always makes them laugh. She is everything she says she is and a true delight. The detailed daily report she shares with us is the icing on the cake.

Linda watches our 17 month old boy one day a week. Not only is she prompt and professional, she is always going the extra step to make life easier for me and my pregnant wife. The positive effects of having Linda in our life for one day can be felt for the entire week.
