Hi! I'm Joy and I am an energetic bilingual (Spanish) caregiver with many years of experience across all ages, from infants to teens. I currently work part-time with a kind , loving, & smart 7 year old boy , and an adorable 16 year old non-verbal boy with autism and Down syndrome ( I have worked with his family for 17+ years) I have a B.A. in Spanish and an A.A.S. in Occupational Therapy Assistant Technology . I have previously worked here in Cleveland in the rehab dept. of nursing homes as a COTA, at Trader Joe’s , and as a preschool teacher at Mandel Jewish community center. I grew up in Portland, Oregon and I absolutely love the outdoors, metro parks, animals, music, and arts & crafts....tons of crafts! (I carry around a box of craft materials in my car at all times, and kids know me for this). I also enjoy children's books, the library, board games, and making up silly stories with kids. In addition, I still like to climb trees and play hide and seek, sing, dance, goof around, and be silly when silly is called for. I volunteered as an English teacher for K thru 6th grade students with WorldTeach while living abroad in Costa Rica for two years . I’m adventurous and tons of fun, but I don't forget to enforce rules, teamwork, sharing, respect for other kids, and cleanup . (I trained with Amy Speidel to learn "Conscious Discipline" and continue to get coached by her). If your kids are young, you will often find me on the floor playing and recalling what it was like to be that age.

We are incredibly grateful we found Joy! She is kind, reliable, and has a natural ability to connect with our 9 month old. From reading books, to singing songs she is always willing to go the extra mile to engage with our little one. We can always count on her, which gives us peace of mind. Highly recommend!

Hi, I go by Miss Kristen! I graduated from high school in May of 2018. In addition I completed the Early Childhood Education program, that worked along side the preschool and kindergarten teachers. After high school I went to a community college for a year while I was an after school babysitter. I then worked at BioLife Plasma as a playroom attendant and receptionist for a year to then go back to being a nanny (full time). After that employment came to an end, I have been at University Hospitals (UH) full time for five years and love continuing to babysit on the side - such as weekends and weekday evenings! I have been providing childcare since I was ten. Over the years I watch many children (from the age of newborns to 12 year olds) for numerous families and various cities all over! I enjoy doing arts and crafts with the children! When the weathers nice I like to take them outside. As a babysitter I enjoy playing with them down on the ground, playing board games, and lots of sport activities. I also clean up any mess that was made while I am babysitting (light housekeeping)! I was in 4-H for ten years showing my guinea pigs and doing self determined projects. I was on the Junior Fairboard for Lake County for seven years. We helped run the milkshake booth and various events throughout fair week.

Kristen was very responsive and we had great communication before and during the sitting job. She was fun and responsible. My elementary age kids loved her. Would definitely hire again and highly recommend.

I am a registered nanny through an agency located in Beachwood, Ohio and would like the possibility of more jobs. I have been a full time parent to my 2 beautiful daughters who are now ages 32 and 33 and loved every minute of it. They are Irish twins.I can definitely relate to the pleasures and pressures of parenting directly. I believe my friends and former employers would describe me as funny and confident. I try to be very flexible and provide specialized care for each child. I have been an assistant soccer coach in the past for 6 years from preschool to third grade. I have also worked in my church's nursery and enjoyed it very much. I’m proud to have completed my formal training through the former English Nanny & Governess School located in Chagrin Falls, Ohio in 2015.

Jocelyn has worked for us for two months and she has been very reliable. We have a 7 month old girl and I know Jocelyn has been attentive to her needs. She often brings her own books and toys to keep the baby entertained. We had only hired Jocelyn temporarily as I transitioned out of the workforce, and I appreciated her being available on short notice and how professional she was about our situation. I know that Jocelyn cared for our daughter as though she were her own.

Hi! I love all kids & caring for them/helping them grow is my passion! I am the oldest of 6 kids. There has not been a time in my life where I was not around kids! I am a nursing major at Kent State & I know I will one day be a pediatric nurse. I work as a Nursing Assistant II at UH Rainbow Babies & Childrens hospital main campus (in downtown Cleveland)! I absolutely love working at Rainbow & I have happily worked there since May, 2022. I work in their float pool, meaning I go where the staffing needs are higher for that day! I am PRN, which means I schedule my own shifts every scheduling period (which allows me the flexibility to be a sitter as well)! Every scheduling period at RBC, I just have a minimum amount of hours that I am required to schedule, so as long as I meet the minimum, I can schedule as much as I would like or I can just work the minimum, allowing me this flexibility. This has given me experience as a nursing assistant caring for the kiddos on all of their units, including: the cardiac stepdown, the pediatric ICU, the child and adolescent psychiatric unit, their peds med/surg unit, the NICU stepdown, the respiratory floor, the GI/GU floor, & their pediatric hematology/oncology unit! I have trainings for pediatrics that I constantly have to stay up to date on as well. I could not say enough amazing things about Rainbow & how much I love working there! I also work at a daycare as needed (depending on staffing needs & my job at RBC) & I have happily been employed with them for over two years now as a childcare provider float. I love working with children. I am registered through OCCRAA and have completed all my required childcare trainings through ODJFS. I am CPR BLS certified. I am fully vaccinated, including fully COVID vaccinated as well! I can do light housework, laundry, or whatever is needed. I have my drivers license & my own vehicle for any transportation needs (a 2015 Chrysler 200 & completely safe)! I have a clean driving record (never even been pulled over) & a clean background check! I am completely okay with any animal care as well! I am hard working & punctuality is important to me! I am extremely easy to work with & very thoroughly experienced! Currently, I live in Willowick, OH! It is my passion to protect all of the tiny humans! I would love the opportunity to care for your kiddos as well!

Gabbi was a great sitter, our son had a great time with her. She communicated with me while we were aware and even sent us pics. I would gladly recommend her to others.

Hi, I’m Noelle! I’m a college student at Ohio State University on the pre-med track, and I’m currently looking for flexible babysitting opportunities that work around my class schedule. I’ve babysat for friends, family, and neighbors over the years and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids of all ages. I'm responsible, patient, and always focused on creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, preparing snacks, or just being a kind and trustworthy presence while you're out, I’m here to help however I can. As a full-time student, I understand the importance of time management and reliability—and I bring those same qualities to my babysitting. I’d love to support your family and be someone you can count on! I am a State-Tested Nursing Assistant and have a current CPR and First Aid certification for adults and infants.

I started babysitting at 13 years old and I furthered my experiences by becoming a nanny 3 years ago. My most recent and current experiences are in being a professional Nanny, but the certifications and experiences required to become a nanny overpower the credentials needed to be a sitter. Although it will be an odd change to go from a nanny schedule to a baby sitter's; it is a task I am more than confident I can handle.

Hi, I'm Jasmine! I am a BSN nursing student with hands-on experience caring for infants, children, and families through my nursing education and clinical training. I completed a 16-week nursing internship, including 8 weeks in the NICU and 8 weeks in a pediatric hospital float pool, where I gained experience providing compassionate, patient-centered care. As a mom to a wonderful 2-year-old son, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I am dependable, patient, organized, and attentive to each child’s unique needs. My healthcare background has equipped me with strong communication skills, knowledge of child safety, and the ability to remain calm under pressure. I enjoy planning fun, age-appropriate activities, helping with routines, meal preparation, and supporting children’s growth and development. Families can count on me to provide loving, reliable care while treating their children as if they were my own

Hello! My name is Jo Anne. I'm a nanny who has been an educator, home schooler, and creative arts Sunday School teacher with a Bachelor Degree. I enjoy doing educational projects with children according to their developmental level, especially child-led interest projects such as with science experiments, sports, and crafts. I believe that reading to and with children is an important part of every day. It is fun to involve my charges in community events such as library story time and activities, parks, even play dates, if that is the parent's desire. My experience babysitting, teaching, and working with children spans over 40 years. (As 4th of 11 children in my family of origin, I began child care early in life :) ) Thank you for taking the time to peruse my introduction! My CPR certification is current. Thank you, Jo Anne
