Autumn M., Babysitter in Lorain, OH 44052 with 31 years of paid experience

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!

Leta B., Babysitter in Lorain, OH 44052 with 1 year of paid experience

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!

Morgan D., Babysitter in Lorain, OH 44052 with 6 years of paid experience

My name is Morgan and I hope to help you and your family meet caregiving needs! I have worked full-time as a Certified Child Life Specialist at Cleveland Clinic Children's for 2.5 years in the NICU and pediatric EMU. Due to working 8-5 during the week, and some weekends and holidays, I believe I will be of most help for date night purposes/ weekend needs. As a child life specialist, I work with pediatric patients and their families during their hospital admissions by helping promote a more positive coping experience for children through developmentally appropriate preparation, diagnosis education, teaching effective strategies and helping implement a child’s coping plan to the medical team. Most importantly, I work to help normalize the hospital setting and building rapport with children through play! In pursuing this career, I have had the opportunity to gain many different experiences working with children of all ages from infants to adolescents including previous experiences working for the YMCA, after school programming for a high school, and babysitting for a family during COVID in addition to my clinical experiences in the hospital setting that were required to obtain my certification. With my background in child development and psychology, I feel confident in my abilities to help guide children in their learning and growth both cognitively and emotionally. When I’m not working, I really enjoy, painting, exploring new parks with my fiancé, going to sports games, and spending time with friends and family! I think children I have worked with in the past would describe me as dependable, empathetic, patient, creative, and most importantly; fun!!!

Jordyn B., Babysitter in Lorain, OH 44052 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi - my name is Jordyn, and graduated from Ohio Dominican University in December, where I played soccer and got a degree in Exercise Science. I work/have worked with toddlers and kids (5-12) at my local YMCA, running various camps and working in child watch the past 3 years. My responsibilities have included crafts, tutoring, teaching various sports, and organizing group games/activities. In camp, my ratio was 1:18, so I am comfortable watching any number of kids. Being a former college athlete, I love being active with the kids I work with. Whether it’s teaching them new activities, playing board games, baking, or playing outside, I love to see them learn while having fun! I am not going back to school until January, so I have a lot of availability and flexibility to help a family/families out!
