Find experienced child care providers in Rittman, OH

Hi! My name is Diamond and I am currently a Graduate student getting my Ph.D in Counseling Psychology. In my journey, I realized my passion for working with children and adolescence. During the Covid lockdown, I got a job at a daycare and it was the most fulfilled I have felt in a job. It helped me realize my strengths as a caring, creative, and energetic person. Being able to work with children keeps my hope alive and allows me to connect with the future of our world. Being a part of their development and having the opportunity to learn from children is something I value greatly in life.

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 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!

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.
