Hi there! My name is Dai’Shunai, but everyone calls me Dai. I’m 24 years old and currently working on my Master’s degree after earning my Bachelor’s. I’ve spent the last five years working with children ages 4–18 and absolutely love it! I’m CPR and First Aid Certified and have experience caring for up to three children at a time. I’m patient, dependable, and love keeping kids active and engaged. I enjoy doing hands-on activities like puzzles, arts and crafts, nature walks, and learning games — I believe in creating fun experiences that don’t rely on screen time. I’m also happy to help with homework, cooking, cleaning, transportation, bath and bedtime routines, and even pet care! I live in Hudson, OH, and am more than willing to travel to meet your family’s needs. I can’t wait to bring positive energy, structure, and creativity to your home!

Hi there! I am a fun-loving guy who has been working with children since High School, which is where I discovered my love for teaching young people and helping them to discover themselves and grow into wonderful adults! I am a graduate of Kent State University with a bachelor's of science in Early Childhood Education. I am a Paramedic with 10+ years of EMS experience and a former employee of Akron Children's Hospital, which gives me significant experience working with children with special health needs and developmental disabilities. I am currently looking for work that fits around my schedule, I currently work part-time but am also helping to manage and support my mother during cancer treatment. My schedule is generally flexible. As one of few experienced male caregivers on Sittercity, I hope that if you're searching for an energetic, friendly, positive male role model to look after your kids, you'll reach out and see if I'm the right fit for you! I do have numerous families available for references, however, as I've been finding work off a different website for years, most of my reviews are over there! Thanks!

Cynthia B.
- 4 years paid experience

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.

Morgan B.

Hi everyone! My name is Morgan and I am 25 years old! I have been babysitting kids for 15 years now and have been in the child care setting for 5 years! I went to college and gained a bachelors degree in Child Psychology. This way I could dig deeper into children and be able to meet kids on their level. My husband was in the U.S Marine Corps for the past 4 years and that is where I gained a lot of my experience with kids. I was a child care provider working with kids ages 0-5 at a child development center on base. It was an amazing job and something I miss everyday! We moved back home to Ohio, and I started working at a daycare here. I found out I am pregnant with my first baby due in February. Once I have the baby I am looking to nanny kiddos as well as bringing my baby along with me. From daycare experience I am used to working with multiple kids at a time. My availability is wide open as to I will be becoming a stay at home mom. I am CPR & First Aid certified. I can provide references if needed! Thanks excited to hear from you!

Erica B.

Hi! A little bit about me: I graduated from Kent State with a bachelor degree in psychology. I was a preschool teacher for about 3 years, working mostly with children aged 3-4, although I have experience with all ages! Eventually I moved on and became a social worker through the county for two years, where my primary goal was to keep children safe. It was very emotionally challenging, which led me to a full-time nanny position. Due to personal family issues, I had to quit working full-time and spend time with them. I had my son in December (2018) and am currently a stay at home mom. I'm looking to watch a baby in my home, part time.
