Hi! I have 30 1/2 years of experience as a Professional Career Nanny seeking employment with a family I can grow with. I also have years of experience as a Household Manager and as a Family/Personal Assistant. As well as a Pre- School Teacher's Assistant/Teacher. I majored in Early Childhood Education while in college. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I am a non smoker. I have had the pleasure working with children from newborns, toddlers, and teens. As well as experience with twins, ADD, ADHD, Aspergers, mild cerebral palsy, autism, and down syndrome. I try to be the best role model for children. I love to get out and explore and encourage active participation, while creating a fun, positive environment. I love helping guide children to be the best them that they can be, to grow emotionally, and influence them to be creative, bright, responsible, kind, and loving young adults. I treat children like they are my own. I am well organized, I can multitask well and I am also motivated and hardworking. I love being silly with kids and having fun with them! I am always open to learning new things. I am compassionate, patient, mature, responsible, and loving. I love organizing, and turning homes into a stress free zone where my employers can find more time for themselves and their family. Thanks so much!

Currently I’m available for occasional, date nights & daytime . I have a permanent Saturday/Sunday position (4 years so far) for a 6 year old, 2 toddlers & an infant. This family found me through SitterCity. I am experienced with newborn, toddlers & school age children. I am always open to occasional sitting so that the family & I can get acquainted. I really like reading & playing & visits to the library. I previously finished a job with a Westlake family of 3 boys for 4 years when they aged to self care. (Palmer reference available upon request). A previous position entailed caring for 2 adopted girls who were 4 & 5. I worked for them for 4 years & still see the girls occasionally. (Corsaro reference available upon request). Formula, park & library visits, preparing meals for the whole family or just the kids & getting them to eat & into bed happy are all part of my experience. I love to help with homework or just teach younger children the basics. I teach children how to cook or bake when appropriate - or just decorating the finished cupcakes! (@donnathebaker on Instagram) I am happy to help with light housework tasks & laundry as needed. I love all pets but am allergic to cats.

I recently hired Donna to watch my 3 kids a few days a week. She has been wonderful. I have a very crazy schedule and she is super accommodating, and very punctual, which is a huge thing for me! Not to mention she is great with the kids. I love her enthusiasm and energy! My very picky almost 2 year old has taken to her very fast and my older kids enjoy spending time with her. She not only takes care of the kids but she engages them in activities. In fact, she is baking cupcakes with my 8 year old today! I cant wait to get home! lol. And the other day she organized my pantry!!! What more could you ask for! We are super pleased with Donna! She has really been a blessing to our family! And if you want her, you might have to fight me for her!

I'm a college student attending LCCC currently for my Associates of Nursing. I have professional experience babysitting for about 2 years now, as well as I have 2 younger siblings who I've nearly raised as my own kids since they were young. I am CPR and first aid certified. I decided to be a sitter due to my compassion for kids and ability to connect! My abilities also extend beyond sitting to more, such as basic household work (laundry, dishes, etc.), running errands, in addition to having my own car. I am particularly available in the mornings, but have a flexible schedule so feel free to reach out!

Hello, and welcome to my page! My name is Gemma Kilgore, and I am a recent graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University with my dual-license in Inclusive Elementary Education; I will be teaching 3rd grade at Keystone in the fall! I am the oldest of four, and love reading, writing, learning, crafting, and spending time outside doing anything and everything. I have several years of caregiving, watching ages ranging from 5 months to 13 years old; I am CPR/First Aid certified, and possess experience with ASD, ADHD, RSV, trauma, and cerebral palsy. I have also worked at Primrose School and tutored for America Reads to advance my knowledge of behavior management and teaching practices. Having fun is essential in my caretaker philosophy, but safety will always remain my first priority. I am trustworthy, dependable, and most importantly, am able to establish trust and rapport with children. Feel free to message me if interested! Thank you. Thank you for your time and consideration, and have a lovely day!

I live just a few miles away in Olmsted Township, and would love to meet your family to find out if we could be a good fit! I’ve been certified in CPR and first aid, though the most recent training was 3 years ago. I’m also a massage therapist and musician, if you desire your child to experience live music or infant massage, though I understand if that isn’t your preference. My background is in music therapy and I have studied children’s development as well. I’m available M-F though I have a chiropractic appointment at 5:30 pm on either Monday or Wednesday each week. Please feel free to look at my bio and contact me! The fastest way and most reliable to reach me with an unknown number and email is via text at 216-544-6870. Thank you so much!

Hi! My name is Hannah and I am 31. From 2020 - 2021 I was a full-time nanny for a 2 year old, 3 year old, and 6 year old (all siblings). And was a nanny for families with kids ranging with children from ages 1 to 6years old from 2022-2023.

Prior to becoming an RBT I, in addition to working at multiple day cares and preschools, while taking care of a range of children (including some with special needs/autism), some of the experiences I've had throughout the years with children/teenagers would be: Being a PSR 2nd and 3rd grade teacher for a number of years. In addition to previously working in day cares for a while taking care of a range of children---- a floater, Lead and Assistant Toddler teacher, a Pre-K teacher assistant, and working with infants, and working with a lot of youth I was also a PSR 2nd and 3rd grade teacher for a number of years. As well as being youth councilor on retreats (2 years), Confirmation Formation Assistant for teens at my Church parish (1 year), and a Youth Minister Assistant for a littler over a year from 2022 - 2023. As an RBT/autism behavior therapist I love helping shape our client's behavior and communication skills, and helping them to communicate and to grow. While allowing them to still be themselves and respecting them as little humans and embracing all that they are and can be while meeting them where they're at. Making positive changes in children's and their families lives and giving families hope. I'm reliable, patient, caring, attentive, creative, flexible, easy going person, a planner, creative, fun, organizer, outgoing, structured, and like to multitask. I absolutely love working with children, especially children with special needs and who may be seen as a minority in society, and helping them reach their full potential.
