Elizabeth B., Nanny in Gahanna, OH 43230 with 10 years of paid experience

Lots of experience with children! I have worked as a Nanny for the past 8 years! I have a Master's degree in Early Childhood Education and have found that working with children one or two at a time is a rewarding way for me to provide quality care and interaction. I began working with children as a Swimming Instructor as a teenager. As an adult, I studied Early Childhood Education at Ohio State University and have since provided child care to families, worked in a local preschool, worked as a substitute teacher, music teacher, and as a children's Food Educator. I am passionate about providing quality care to children. I strive to provide a safe, loving, fun and supportive environment to help children grow and develop. I believe in following the interests of the child and building upon it, encouraging them to think about things in new ways or asking them guiding questions to assist them in their learning. I also believe that rules help keep children safe and I am very practiced at maintaining the balance of fun and structure. I have a lot of experience designing lesson plans and creating activities for children. I love music and art as well as outdoor activities and believe that children need to be active and engaged in what interests them the most. I am a non-smoker and I am comfortable with animals. I just purchassed my Sitter City background check and I am up to date on my CPR certification. I have recieved all Covid-19 vaccines. I am currently looking for a class to renew my First Aid certification and I can provide excellent references. I look forward to talking with you to see if I may be a good fit for your family.

We were extremely lucky to have Elizabeth to take care of our 2 month old baby. We had her for 3 months and she took exceptional care of our little daughter. Elizabeth was amazing! It was clear from day one that she has a natural gift for infant care; our baby was always happy and thriving in her presence. We highly recommend Elizabeth!

Janiel P., Nanny in Gahanna, OH 43230 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Janiel, and I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic sitter with a genuine passion for working with children. I have hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, and I love creating safe, fun, and engaging environments where kids can learn and grow. I’m certified in CPR and First Aid, and I’m confident in handling emergencies with calmness and care. I have experience with meal preparation, light housekeeping, diaper changes, homework help, and bedtime routines. I’m also comfortable with pets, and I don’t mind lending a hand with school drop-offs/pickups or occasional errands if needed. I enjoy planning creative activities—whether that’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, story time, or learning games—so kids stay entertained while also building new skills. Most importantly, I value open communication with parents and consistency with family routines, so you can feel confident your child is well cared for. My goal is to provide dependable childcare that gives parents peace of mind and children a safe, supportive, and fun space. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted part of your child’s life!

Janiel was such a great help to me and my daughter when I needed a sitter urgently, this was my second time with her and she has always been reliable and nurturing towards my baby girl. These days it’s really hard to find trustworthy and reliable sitters who you know will take care of your child and that was always a concern for my husband and I. Thank you for being such an attentive individual. I totally recommend her services. ??

I started babysitting at the young age of 10. I then became a Sunday School teacher in my church. During college, I worked as a teacher's assistant in the OSU child care center. I have a bachelors in early childhood development and have achieved my masters in education. I worked as a pre-k teacher, kindergarten teacher, and substituted for grades pre-k to 12th grade. People have always said I have a special gift with children. I enjoy helping your child develop emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Not only is Anna my best friend of 10 years, she has been there for me with my daughter since day 1. Anytime I need a sitter she is my go-to. She has experience not only working with children at a daycare but has helped me with my daughter when she was a newborn and even now currently as a toddler, daytime care and overnight care. She is a pro bottle maker and absolutely amazing with kids. Not to mention how lovely of a person she is, I have recommended her to families I nannied for in the past and would recommend her to anyone as she truly cares and puts in the most effort possible.

Hi, I’m Lisa. I raised three children of my own, and they’re now successful adults, so I have real-life experience with kids, routines, busy households, meals, schedules, big emotions, and everything that comes with caring for children. I also have in-home childcare experience and understand how important it is for parents to have someone dependable, patient, calm, and trustworthy in their home. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and a non-drinker. I’m attentive, nurturing, and very hands-on. I like to keep kids safe, engaged, and cared for while also respecting each family’s routines and expectations. I love to cook and I’m always happy to help with meals, snacks, meal prep, grocery runs, light household help, and whatever is needed to keep the day moving smoothly. I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help with basic pet care as well. I’m available for full time or part-time childcare, date nights, weekends, overnights, and extended care when needed. I have a background check and references available. If you’re looking for someone experienced, dependable, caring, and easy to work with, I’d be happy to connect.
