Denise  H., Babysitter in Petersburg, OH 44454 with 30 years of paid experience

Hi! A bit about me. 2020 was a year of change for everyone. Me, I retired after 40 years in the acute care medical field and became an empty nester! I've always loved children and would have had a houseful of my own had I started at a younger age. I worked in Urgent Care and ER facilities for at least 12 of the last 20 years, medical assisting and performing Imaging studies. I am also certified in CPR. I had a BCI background check done 5 years ago in order to participate in Austintown Fitch Band Parent activities and a consumer background check in 2017 for a job. I will be happy to provide that documentation or have more current check performed if you want. While I don't have recent paid childcare experience, my years of hands-on care is vast. I babysat to put myself through highschool and college. Most importantly, I raised two sons to become kind, productive human beings. And as you well know parenthood is "Grand Prix" of childcare! My youngest moved out of home in October and I'm finding myself with too much time on my hands. When thinking of what I would love to do in this next chapter of my life, taking care of and playing with kids is at the top of my list. I've always been facinated by kid's minds and their thought processes. I love their innocence and in innate sense of wonder and fun. I'm excellent at entertaining and engaging children of all ages. I'd love to speak with you and meet your children so that you can be comfortable with me caring for your children. 🙂

Tiffany T., Babysitter in Petersburg, OH 44454 with 1 year of paid experience

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel safe in a nurturing environment. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch kids reach new milestones, build confidence, and express their personalities. I strive to create a balance of fun, structure, and care so children feel supported while parents feel confident knowing their child is in good hands. I have been working at a daycare for the past 8 months, where I care for children ages 0–5. In my role, I create and carry out weekly lesson plans and lead daily activities such as circle time, early writing, arts and crafts, outdoor play, meals, and nap routines. I am experienced in managing transitions, maintaining schedules, and ensuring a clean, organized environment. Before this, I took early childhood development classes in high school, including a preschool program where I independently planned lessons, decorated the classroom, and taught 3–4-year-olds twice a week. I am currently continuing my education in early childhood development to further expand my knowledge and skills. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have strong hands-on experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. My skills include diapering, potty training, sleep scheduling, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I am also reliable and have my own transportation, so I can drive children, run errands, and assist with schoolwork when needed. I take pride in being dependable, patient, and attentive, and I always aim to support both children and families in any way I can.

Danielle E., Babysitter in Petersburg, OH 44454 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm a caring and dependable nanny with experience handling up to 5 children at once, ages 1-13. I'm comfortable balancing different personalities, routines, and energy levels while keeping things structured and fun. I'm also actively involved in caring for my 3 stepchildren, which has given me strong hands-on experience with daily routines, behavior, and creating a positive home environment. I also have a baby on the way, which has deepened my passion for childcare and providing a safe, nurturing space. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with outdoor play, crafts, and learning activities while staying on top of meals, naps, and homework. I'm also comfortable with light housekeeping, including tidying, dishes, and general organization. I have reliable transportation and am CPR certified.

Siena F., Babysitter in Petersburg, OH 44454 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Siena! I’d describe myself as caring, fun, and empathetic. Working with children has always come naturally to me, and I truly love being part of their growth. There’s something so special about watching kids learn, change, and discover the world around them. Seeing their excitement over new milestones or simple everyday moments is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. I started caring for children when I was younger by helping with my relatives’ kids and my nephew, and that early experience really shaped my love for childcare. For the past two years, I’ve been working at a childcare center with children of all ages, which has helped me grow confident in supporting different personalities and developmental stages. I’m also currently in college working toward my bachelor’s degree. I’m looking for an occasional position for now and full-time position starting in June and would love to find a family where we’re a great fit for each other. For long-term roles, I prefer to be paid through a payroll service. I’m excited to build a strong connection with a family and be someone their children feel safe, supported, and happy around
