Find experienced child care providers in Ostrander, OH

Hi I'm Ushio, I have raised/cared for children for over 9years. I love being around children and like to introduce them basic sciences. I have Recognition of Excellence Award in Praxis in Biological Sciences and also have experience teaching at a Japanese supplemental school (junior high schoolers). My expertise is in ecological science but can also teach Japanese, basic math, and other sciences to some extent. I'm a native Japanese speaker, so If you would like your little ones to learn Japanese, I can teach them while I babysit :) Depending on the situation/children's interests, I can introduce types of insects, periodic table, and have some story books based on ecological theories. If you don't mind a bit of mess, I can also provide a little at home experiments (using all safe materials such as salt, sugar, food coloring etc.). I focus on the interests of each child and try to provide them with a fun time to help them recognize that the learning is fun. *I don't do strict tutoring/teaching. I can also simply play with them. I will jump with them at trampoline place, will get in the water at swim class, and play tags with them at park...I play seriously :) Available Fri evening & some Sunday afternoon. Single parent discount available. Look forward hearing from you! Ushio

Hi everyone, I'm Blessing! I was born and raised in Silver Spring, Maryland but originally from The Democratic Republic of Congo. I have been living in Columbus for almost 3 years now and am currently working on getting a degree in Political Science. I've been volunteering and working with children closely for 7 years now, working at variety of children facilities and non-profits. I hope to take those experiences and start my own non-profit organization one day. Some of my hobbies include dancing, cooking, and binge-watching different T.V shows. I'm a big pasta lover and can eat pasta all day everyday but I also enjoy trying new foods. I love doing anything arts and crafts and love the color pink. I look forward to creating some fun memories!

Hi! My name is Erika and I am 28 years young! I am in school to become a Nurse Practitioner at OSU. Prior to the nursing field, I was a private nanny for a family of 4 for 2 years and have personally fostered a baby (who is now a toddler)! I have some daytime flexibility, weekend and weeknights. I would love to be considered to help you get in a date night or self-care time!

My name is Dayana Leach, and I have over 7 years of childcare experience, including 4 years as a Pre-K aide in an elementary school and 3 years working as a full-time nanny. I have had the joy of caring for children ranging from newborns through 5th grade, and I love helping each child grow and thrive at their own stage of development. With certifications in CPR and First Aid, as well as classroom experience as a teacher’s aide, I bring both safety and structure to my care. I balance being calm and nurturing with creativity and fun—whether that means planning engaging activities, supporting learning, or simply being a steady and loving presence throughout the day. I am also a new mom to a 2-month-old, and I’m looking to welcome another child into my home to provide care alongside my little one. I believe this creates a warm, family-like environment where children can play, learn, and grow together. As a Christian, I strive to live out my faith in my daily life and in the way I care for children—by modeling kindness, patience, and love in everything I do. I’m comfortable with driving, daily routines, meal prep, and homework help, and I take pride in creating a safe, positive, and encouraging space for kids. Families often describe me as reliable, patient, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy building long-term connections with both children and parents.

Hello, my name is Miss Shae. I have been a nanny for 27 years now! I just adore children! I think they keep me young! At heart anyway! I have had every age under the rainbow, newborn to teenagers. I’m currently looking for a new position as my current position is coming to an end as the little girl is 11years old. I have been more of a personal assistant house manager for the past couple of years. I would love to meet your little ones! I will make them as happy as they make me! I look forward to the next chapter and family to become a part of!!

Hello! I am Mari. I have provided child care in the Columbus area for 20+ years and, as it turned out, primarily for families in which both parents are doctors. I have a B.A. in Communications. I enjoy kiddos and have plenty of experience with transporting them to activities & appointments as well as accomplishing light housework. I would like the opportunity to talk and/or meet to see if I am a good match for your family. Thank you, Mari

Hi my name is Bekah! I have 3 years of caregiving experience as a nursing assistant. I’m very cheerful and bubbly. I have a very large family with little ones. I’ve always wanted to work with kids but never got the opportunity. I am trained in stressful situations so I’m very calm cool and collected and know how to handle situation under stress.

Hi! My preferred name is Ella! I have 5 years experience working at daycares with children ranging infant-school age! I am more interested in infant-toddler range. I do not drive, unfortunately, but outside time is still awesome even if we're just on a walk! I love doing arts and crafts with the kiddos and having super random dance parties (my favorite song to listen to around kiddos is The Goldfish by The Laurie Berkner Band). I have had dogs and cats all my life, so I am willing to feed and walk if needed as well!
