Sittercity helps Medina families find the best babysitters

My name is Monique Love, and I am a 33-year-old mother of three wonderful children, A 13-year-old son and 11- and 7-year-old daughters. I am currently completing my medical externship to become a certified Medical Assistant. I bring a wealth of experience working with children, starting with an after-school program on my home island of Maui, where I grew up. After relocating to Ohio, I continued my passion for early childhood education by working as a toddler, infant, and preschool teacher. While I took a brief break during my third pregnancy due to health challenges, I returned to the field by supporting children and families at the ACCESS Women's Shelter over the past two years. Throughout this time, I have balanced my roles as a full-time mom, student, and employee. As I finish my externship, I am seeking part-time opportunities that allow me to continue my professional growth while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. As a single parent, there may be times when my 6-year-old daughter accompanies me outside of school hours, and I would appreciate your understanding and flexibility. I am excited to connect with families and continue making a positive impact on the lives of children.

Hello! I currently go to school at Ohio University and I am majoring in Nursing. I absolutely love kids, as it's my passion to help children when I'm older. I have experience watching all age groups, primarily infants and toddlers.

My name is Cynthia. I am married and the mother of three boys, ages 6, 5, and 12 months. For the first four years of our boy's lives, I cared for our children in our home. The first three years of a child's life are invaluable and my ability to be with them during these critical years is one I will always be grateful for. Our day consisted of lots of outdoor play, trips to local parks and reserves, art and reading. Above all it was important to me to involve my children in the simplicity of the day. Everything that we did was used to feed their whole sense of self. From going to the farmer's market, library, hikes, or even gardening at home, my children thrived when they were involved in experiencing the day with me. When school age approached, myhusband and I enrolled or boys in a local private school that we felt best suited the learning style and curriculum that we had been implementing in our home. Due to the healthy rhythms and activities that were familiar to our children, the transition was seamless. I began nannying as my children started their journey at school. I was left with the desire to start this process again. My strong belief in the importance of children being at home from birth to age three overflowed into my newfound career. I have been honored to work for two incredible families in the last four years. I have watched their children grow and developed lifelong relationships with them. I am looking to begin a new journey with a family; one who shares the same love of child nurturing that I do. I prefer to nanny from your home to ensure a consistent environment for your child/children. Healthy foods, minimal screen time, and outdoor play are some of the fundamentals that will drive our daily routine. Some of my parenting techniques include: "RIE" as well as "Lifeways Childcare Providers." I am currently working on my Lifeways Child Care certification. I have a daily rate which includes gas for travel and cost of activities. I have annual memberships to Stan Hwyett Hall and Gardens, Akron Zoo, Hale Farm, The Museum of Natural History and Loyal Oak Lake. I am CPR trained and certified. I offer light cleaning, shopping, laundry, meal preparation, school/ activities transportation, and play dates. For your benefit and mine, I ask for a four week trial period. During this time we can determine if I am the best fit for your family.

Hi, my name is McKenna—but please call me Kenna. I’m a recent high-school graduate headed to Baldwin Wallace University this fall to major in Middle Childhood Education, and I’m looking for part-time work where I can keep doing what I love most: helping kids learn, laugh, and feel safe. For the past six years I’ve worked as both a nanny and babysitter with children ranging from infants to pre-teens. Along the way I’ve earned current CPR and First Aid certifications, so you can be confident your little ones are in capable hands. I also have a reliable car and a clean driving record, which lets me handle school pick-ups, sports practices, and errand runs with ease. Around the house I’m happy to pitch in wherever you need—light housekeeping, meal prep, laundry, you name it. Families appreciate that I’m patient, upbeat, and quick to connect with children of all personalities, whether that means calming an anxious toddler or engaging a curious grade-schooler in a STEM project. Your job posting caught my eye because the schedule aligns perfectly with my summer availability, and the ages of your children match the focus of my education major. I’d love to learn more about your family’s needs and discuss how I can help your days run a little smoother. Please feel free to request references or set up a call at your convenience. I look forward to meeting you and your family—thank you for considering me!

Hi! I’m an experienced babysitter with several years of hands-on care for children of all ages—from infants to preteens.

I have 2 nieces and a nephew that I adore. Being around children gives you a fresh perspective that is needed within adult minds. I used to work at a daycare for about a year with kids ranging from month old babies to middle school children. I volunteered for the zoo and helped with the zoo camp. I also was able to teach a couple lessons to second graders. I used to tutor high school students and help them out with their homework. I also used to babysit and value outside time to play.
