Hi my name is Reese! I’m 21 years old, a rising college senior studying psychology. I love being a sitter because working with kids and teens have always brought me so much joy. I truly love being someone that can create a safe and fun space while on the job. I’m someone who is out-going, kind, adaptive, patient, and enthusiastic! I am also passionate about putting all my attention on the kids to enjoy our time together, and not have to rely on technology to pass the time. My experience includes nannying for a 5, 10, and 13 year old girl for almost two years from 2021-2022. I would cook for the family, drive kids to extracurriculars, clean around the house, give homework help, care for the family’s puppy, and of course do many indoor and outdoor activities with the girls. Additionally, I’ve worked at Friendship Circle of Cleveland as a camp counselor for 2 summers, 8-9 weeks each from 2024-2025. Friendship Circle is a program that mainly functions for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. My job involved enforcing time management to keep my camp group on schedule, adjusting various aspects of our camp day to fit each child’s individual needs, and utilized positive reinforcement to enhance appropriate and safe behavior in each camper. I collaborated with staff members and parents to ensure I met the needs of each camper. This summer, 2026 I have babysat for a 3 year old and 5 year old on the spectrum for 6 hour days, 5 days a week from June through July. With similar responsibilities of prior experience. Driving the kids around to lessons and playgrounds, making meals, keeping the house cleanly, and many fun games and activities. To add, my brother is 10 years younger than me, I babysat him plenty growing up, changing diapers to driving him to school in the mornings. This further highlights my range of experience with infants to adolescents! Important to note: I will be away traveling 8/5-8/11.

Reese was amazing, truly like the big sister my kids needed. She understood how to support my son, who has autism, and created a thoughtful schedule that kept both of my kids engaged and happy throughout the day. I was genuinely impressed by how patient, attentive, and organized she was. I would recommend Reese to any family that wants the very best for their children.

Hi! My name is Cassidy and I'm currently a student at Ohio University! I am working towards a degree in psychology and hope to become a child counselor. I am often in Lancaster on weekends and will be living there full time over the summer. I take COVID very seriously and have been vaccinated and boosted. I have been babysitting since I was a freshman in high school and I love it! My favorite things to do with kids are crafts, games, and any kind of outdoor activities!! I am experienced with almost every age, and am comfortable around pets (I have three dogs and a cat of my own😁). I am also comfortable with driving kids if need be.

I use to run a daycare in my home for several years when my children were little. I am interested in being a fill in when your sitter is on vacation. I enjoy doing fun meal prep, reading stories, hands on projects, arts and crafts. I also have experience with special needs. I did home health for Adults with cerebral palsy for several years before going back to school.

Hi parents! :) With summer coming up, I wanted to introduce myself in case anyone is looking for a nanny/babysitter! My name is Anna Cuevas, and I am an undergraduate student at Ohio University majoring in Psychology. I graduated from North Olmsted High School, as well as Polaris Career Center, where I completed the dental program. I am currently looking for families in the Cleveland or Athens area, and I’m also open to opportunities in nearby cities, including Columbus. I have experience working as both a part-time babysitter and a full-time nanny. Over the past 4+ years, I’ve worked with children ranging from ages 2–12. I’m comfortable managing full-day routines, transportation, educational activities, and keeping kids engaged, active, and supported throughout the day. I also have experience with neurodivergent children, as I grew up in a family where neurodivergence is present, which has given me an understanding and adaptability when working with different needs and personalities.
