Find experienced child care providers in North Lima, OH

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. 🙂

Hello! :) My name is Charity, and I love kids. I've been raised around babies and small children my whole life as well as have 3 siblings. I've babysat for at least 2 families on a fairly regular basis, as well as babysat lots of other kiddos! I'm a junior in college studying Elementary Education and can't wait one day to have my own little ones. I treat every kid as I would my own. I'd love to find a family who could use help especially during the summer or whenever I'm available. I'm not certified, however I did have some first aid training in high-school, and can definitely get references if you have any questions. :)

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.
