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'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!

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. I am a personal professional blog writer since 2015, am in the process of obtaining my BA in Creative Writing, have typing skills, and have been an RBT (Registered Behavior Technician/ABA therapist) full time since June of 2023. I have had 13 years working with children from babies to older teenagers. 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.
