Find experienced babysitters in Wadsworth, OH

I have been a teacher for over 15 years and am raising my own two school aged children. I would love to work with your family part time, while me own kids are in school or even help after school when my own kids would be around too!

Hi! I'm Thayna (pronounced “Tynah”), 26 years old, and I’m looking for a part-time babysitting position. Before moving here, I volunteered at a shelter where I cared for children ages 1 to 15. I have experience with children of different ages and families. Currently, I work 3 days in the mornings taking care of an infant, and I also babysit toddlers (2 and 4 years old) on Saturdays. In the past, I’ve cared for other families as well, including three children ages 4, 6, and 7 for several months and another family’s children ages 9 and 11 for two years. I truly love spending time with kids and always do my best to support their growth and happiness. I am patient, flexible, responsible, friendly, and loving. I have my own car, am comfortable with pets, and can provide references upon request. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience and energy to another family in need of childcare support.

***I offer childcare in my own home as I currently care for my elderly parents.*** Hello! I’m Caitlin and thank you so much for taking the time out to check my page out! I am a veteran of Sittercity and have had quite a few families choose me as their caregiver for their children and I am more than happy to give their information to use as references! I like to do educational and value style of interactions as well as a lot of fun outdoor activities as much as the weather allows! If weather pushes us indoors, we do board games and crafts, as well as group activities so no one feels left out!

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.

Hello! My name is AnnaClaire Lackney and I’m a school Speech-Language Pathologist serving grades PK-3rd. I’m originally from Cincinnati, OH but have recently relocated to Medina, OH. I’m looking to build relationships with families locally to provide quality childcare during my summer break, after-school, or weekends during the school year. I’ve always enjoyed working with the pediatric population and have been babysitting since 5th grade. I have provided childcare services while working at Barre 3's play lounge. I also was a nanny for multiple families for 10+ years! I’m excited to get to know you and your family!

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.

Hello! My name is Morgan Vitanza, and I have a lot of experience caring for children at various stages, from newborns to toddlers to school-aged kids, as I have an 8-year-old daughter myself. I’ve worked as a nanny for two wonderful families. With one family, I cared for a 6-month-old girl and a 2-year-old boy one day a week. My day typically involved arriving around 9am, feeding breakfast, engaging the kids in play, putting the baby down for her nap, and using that time to tidy up. After the baby woke up, I would prepare lunch, take the kids outside for some fresh air, and enjoy walks and outdoor playtime. With another family, I worked every Monday and Friday, caring for three children, ages 2, 5, and 7. I would arrive at 7:15am to feed breakfast, get the oldest on the bus, and take the little girl to preschool. While the 2-year-old napped, I would meal prep, cook, and do light housework. Once the 2-year-old was awake, we’d do arts and crafts, color, paint, and go outside to play, whether it was chalk, swings, or a trip to the park. In the afternoon, I’d pick up the girl from preschool and get the older boy off the bus, where we’d work together on homework in a fun and engaging way, using flashcards and reading to make learning enjoyable. The parents would arrive home at 5:15 I would go over my day with the family and then I would head home. I’m patient and adaptable, always striving to create the best environment for children to thrive. I’m outgoing, reliable, and trustworthy, with CPR certification, reliable transportation, and car insurance. I’d love to meet your family and contribute to your child’s growth and development!

Hi! My name is Lauren and I’m 24. I’ve been working with children since I was 16 and I absolutely love it! I love to paint, sing, and watch movies. I also have 2 cats and love all animals! :)

MY EXPERIENCE I am blessed to be a mom, but my baby is now an adult and out on his own! I am a stepmom to a live-in young adult male with autism, and this experience has taught me how to communicate in a whole new way. In addition to being a parent, I was a babysitter for many years in my teens. I currently babysit the children of extended family members whenever possible! WHY I LOVE IT I was recently laid off from my corporate job and have decided to switch gears and follow my heart by pursuing a part-time job caring for children. Working with children makes me happy. I truly enjoy watching them grow and live life to their potential. Being a part of that journey is extremely rewarding. As a parent, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children. I am someone who will show up, engage with your children, help them develop, and reinforce your household routines and rules. MY SKILLS & TRAINING - Adult and Pediatric First Aid and CPR Certified - Patient, trustworthy, kind, and caring - Fun, energetic, like to play games and be creative - Enjoy the outdoors (hiking, water and snow skiing, etc) - I am a dog person. I grew up with dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, fish, and a few birds. I enjoy most pets. Exceptions are snakes and hairy spiders, but I can deal with them if they are in a secure cage:)

Boy mom here! I have over 13 years of experience in the medical field, along with extensive childcare experience prior to that. I worked as a nanny for 3–4 families and spent 12 years at Lewis Little Folks, NASA’s on-site childcare center. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with children ranging in age from 6 weeks to 13 years old. I began babysitting neighborhood children at a young age and obtained my first daycare position at a local center near my home. As a nanny, my responsibilities included preparing and serving breakfast and lunch, transporting children to and from school, chaperoning playdates and field trips, planning age-appropriate outings, and providing light housekeeping. I pride myself on being reliable, nurturing, and attentive to each child’s individual needs.
