Linda was awesome! She watched my 2 boys (22 months and 5 y/o) for the majority of the day and evening while my husband and I attended a wedding in downtown Buffalo. She was great with communication, we were able to FaceTime ahead of the wedding so my older son could meet her and be comfortable and the day of she sent me message to keep my updated on how they were doing. I would highly recommend Linda! If we are even in Buffalo in the future and need a babysitter we would definitely use her again!

Paige C., Child Care in Akron, NY 14001 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Paige! I have over three years of experience as a nanny in Los Angeles, caring for both infants and toddlers. In addition to my hands-on childcare experience, I’ve worked as a substitute teacher, giving me valuable skills in education, patience, and creativity. I also spent time as a party princess, bringing joy and magic to children’s events—so I know how to keep little ones entertained! Currently, I work for Compeer, a mental wellness organization, where I support individuals in building confidence and connections. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids to learn and grow. I am CPR and First Aid certified and know basic Spanish and intermediate level ASL.

Alicia S., Child Care in Akron, NY 14001 with 9 years of paid experience

As a dedicated and experienced preschool teacher with over 8 years in the field, I am passionate about creating engaging and stimulating learning environments for children of various age groups, ranging from 2 months to 12 years. My expertise lies in designing hands-on, messy activities and fostering a love for outdoor exploration. Outside of my professional commitments, I reside in Cheektowaga with my Siberian Husky and cat. In my leisure time, I find solace in reading and immersing myself in the wonders of nature. I am an avid outdoor enthusiast, always seeking new adventures and opportunities to explore the natural world. Thank you for considering my qualifications. I look forward to hearing from you!

Meghan B., Child Care in Akron, NY 14001 with 3 years of paid experience

I love being a sitter because every day is different—filled with imagination, curiosity, and joy. Helping kids grow, learn, and have fun in a safe and caring environment is something I find incredibly rewarding. I have three years of experience caring for preschool-aged children. I’ve babysat for family friends and also work as a preschool substitute, where I follow all New York State daycare regulations to ensure children are cared for in a safe, structured, and supportive environment. Through this work, I’ve built strong relationships with both kids and parents. Whether it’s crafting, outdoor play, helping with homework, or bedtime routines, I’m happy to adapt to each family’s needs. I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I’m patient, reliable, and always show up with a positive attitude. Most importantly, I take pride in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space where kids feel comfortable being themselves. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone you can trust and rely on!

Katie K., Child Care in Akron, NY 14001 with 0 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Katie! I'm a 19 year old college student looking for a second job while home for the summer. I've recently become a coach for a girls flag football team (ages 10-13) and have really enjoyed teaching the girls as well as becoming a mentor for them. Which has brought me to want to start babysitting! My only experience with child care has been babysitting my cousins, volunteer work at my local library, and coaching. But, I have taken a babysitting course and have first aid and CPR certifications. My availability is super flexible, so please reach out as I'm super excited to start my babysitting journey!!!
