Find experienced nannies in Kent, OH

Hi there! I'm Dai'Shunai — most families just call me Dai. I'm 25, currently pursuing my Master's degree, and have several years of hands-on experience caring for children ages 3 months to 17 years, including multiples. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, patient, dependable, and genuinely love finding creative ways to keep kids engaged — think puzzles, arts and crafts, nature walks, and educational games over screen time. I also have experience supporting children with ADHD and autism spectrum needs. I'm comfortable with the full range: homework help, meal prep, potty training, bath and bedtime routines, transportation, light cleaning, and pet care. Based in Hudson, OH, and happy to travel. I'd love to bring structure, warmth, and good energy to your family!

I have six years of professional childcare experience with all ages and I first started working with children when I was 16 through volunteering at my church and fell in love with it! Creating happy moments for children and a safe space that they’ll always feel loved in is what I’m about. I understand that each child is special for a reason and I enjoy being an integral part in their growth. I am someone that you can depend on, communicative, adaptable, incredibly patient, joyful, and very fun. I have excellent references and I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I can also provide my resume for anyone interested. I enjoy engaging children in age-appropriate activities, taking them on outings or walks, and teaching them in any way that I can. For a bit about me, I’m a middle child and both of my sisters are my best friends. My mom and dad both work in the medical field so an importance of safety was instilled in me since my childhood. A few of my hobbies include baking, crafting with polymer clay, candle making, or going on coffee trips. I’m also a huge lover of dogs and cats and willing to provide care for them upon request!

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!

Hello! I have a lifetime of hands-on experience being the eldest of five. Now I’m a grandma of two boys. I've worked full time for 40 years, the first 20 as a travel consultant and 20 as a church secretary. I then transitioned to this role which I find rewarding and fun. I worked regularly for a family with 3 girls, ages 7 and 4 year old twins for the past 7 years, all of which are now in school. They also have a dog and cat, I grew up on a small farm so I’m very animal friendly. My husband and I are life-long residents of Cuyahoga Falls and own our home. Our son and his family live just two blocks away. We are blessed with frequent visits from our 6 and 10 year old grandsons. I’m looking for part time, hopefully I can be one of your sitters! If you feel that we may be a good fit, I look forward to hearing from you! Linda

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.
