I really value being trusted with their care. I’m comfortable watching up to 3 children at a time and I have significant work experience with ages 0-5, however in my personal life I’ve experience with supervising children of all ages.

I became a caregiver because it is what I have done most of my life. Taking care of children has been the most rewarding career for me. Being a mother of four grown children and twelve grandchildren qualifies me as a nurturing caregiver. For many years I worked in the hospitality & retail industry. As a nanny I have cared for children newborn to teenagers. I’ve cared for families with one to three children. I’ve previously been CPR certified. My flu shot is updated yearly. I have received all my Covid shots. My Internest updates my shots every 6 months,

My name is Jessica, and I’m a wife and mother of two wonderful boys. I earned my degree in Special Education from Ohio University and have extensive experience working with children from infancy through school age. I taught kindergarten for two years, worked at KinderCare for ten years, and assisted two families with pod learning during the pandemic. Currently, I’m a teacher’s assistant, seeking a less demanding role to allow more time for involvement in my children’s schooling and extracurricular activities. At KinderCare, I served as the Learning Adventures teacher, where I led small groups in subjects like math, music, reading, and phonics. I was also a Pre-K teacher for three years and floated between classrooms during my spring and summer breaks. I absolutely love working with children! Creating a structured and engaging environment that fosters developmental growth is one of my greatest joys. I have a passion for working with kids and a deep patience for navigating different personalities. Knowing I can be a listening ear or a helping hand in a child’s life is what makes my work so fulfilling.

Hi there! I am a fun-loving guy who has been working with children since High School, which is where I discovered my love for teaching young people and helping them to discover themselves and grow into wonderful adults! I am a student at Kent State University, where I am finishing my bachelor's in Early Childhood Education. I am a Paramedic with 5+ years of 911 EMS experience and a former employee of Akron Children's Hospital, which gives me significant experience working with children with special health needs and developmental disabilities. I am currently looking for work that fits around my schedule for the Fall semester, which has me available nights, weekends, and mornings before school starts. As one of few experienced male caregivers on Sittercity, I hope that if you're searching for an energetic, friendly, positive male role model to look after your kids, you'll reach out and see if I'm the right fit for you! I do have numerous families available for references, unfortunately I've been finding work off a different website for years and my reviews are all on there! Thanks!

My name is Zakiyyah. I have been babysitting since I was a young teenager for family and friends of the family. I currently also work with the Children’s Defense Fund Freedom Schools Program where I implement a reading curriculum, foster the love of reading and learning in my scholars and their need to make a difference. This will be my fifth summer with the program and I love it! Working with young people has made my ability to individualize the needs if each person exceptional. This is very important to me because each child is different. I am also able to do this at the various high schools and middle schools where my on campus organizations volunteer. I love working with young people, and although it is not always flawless, the patience, life experience and impact I have gained is incomparable. I am CPR trained and efficiently responsive in a crisis. I would be glad to offer care, compassion and positive leadership to where you and your family needs it most!
