Find experienced nannies in Shawnee Hills, OH

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.

Hi there! I’m Salome, but everyone calls me Soul — and I wear that name proudly, because caring for children has always been where my heart feels most at home. I just moved back to my hometown of Columbus, Ohio after spending over a year in Atlanta, where I had the joy of working closely with an incredible family. For over 14 years, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from snuggly newborns to curious teens — as a babysitter, nanny, and after-school teacher. My experience spans infants, toddlers, and multiples, and I’ve also worked hands-on in schools, where I’ve applied my public health background to create safe, structured, and nurturing environments. Kids keep me inspired — their curiosity, creativity, and honesty remind me to see the world with fresh eyes. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning creative play, or maintaining your baby’s daily routine, I love finding ways to support each child’s personality and rhythm. My goal is always to meet them where they are and help them grow with confidence. I’ve also had the opportunity to care for children abroad through mission trips and community health work, experiences that taught me how to connect with kids and families from all walks of life. I’m comfortable with pets, speak another language, and bring a calm, joyful energy wherever I go. Most importantly, my goal is to serve as an extension of your family — not to overstep, but to honor and maintain your approach, creating a sense of trust, consistency, and care that helps your little ones feel right at home.

Hello beautiful families of Columbus! My first name is Terra, but I go by my middle name Dominique. I have been working in childcare for almost 20 years and have cared for children of all ages in many types of settings including, but not limited to, as a martial arts instructor, preschool teacher, and private nanny. I have been certified in CPR, including for infants, and First Aid. I have a 2 year old daughter who will need to come with me on jobs most of the time. We are both very friendly and love animals and being outdoors. I practice gentle parenting with an emphasis on kindness to all living beings, including oneself, and gaining hands-on experience. I encourage new learning opportunities within a safe environment. We love parks and libraries. We also have a membership to COSI and would be happy to share that same adventure with your child. We look forward to meeting you and your munchkins!!

Hello Families! I'm 36, originally from Ohio and have recently moved back from Chicago. I have about 15 years total experience, with 8 years of that being full-time. I've taken care of children, from newborn babies to children 10 years of age. I would describe myself as very reliable, responsible, fun, friendly, and active. I'm sensitive to the needs of parents, as well as children. I'm looking to have a working relationship based on mutual trust and respect. I have several outstanding references that I'm happy to give upon request. I love animals and do not mind doing light house cleaning. I love being a Nanny because I feel like I'm able to make a difference in the lives of others. Not only am I being entrusted by parents to look after their kids, but I'm also being asked to be a role model to their children, which is something I've never taken lightly. On a day-to-day basis, I like being a part of the small things, such as getting them ready for the day or taking them to the park. I love having little adventures, because children see things with a fresh perspective, anything can be made exciting. Over the long term, I love being thought of as a part of a family. I really get to know the families I work for, and it's fulfilling to know I've made an impact on their lives. Also, I'm looking for a family that takes covid precautions as much as they can. I'm vaccinated against covid x 3. Thanks for checking out my profile and hope to connect soon!

My name is Kara Moody. I recently graduated from The Ohio State University with a bachelors degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences. I will be taking one year off from my graduate studies before returning to school. I have been babysitting for families for about 4 years now and when I saw your job posting I thought that it might be the perfect position for me. I have experience with all age ranges of children but especially infant-12 years as the families I have babysat for the most often have had children in those age ranges including boys and girls. I enjoy being hands on with children while interacting with them and learning the things they enjoy to do which helps pass the time while their parents are away more enjoyable for them. Some things I enjoy doing are arts/crafts, reading, being in the outdoors, and cooking. I enjoy cooking healthy meals for the little ones and if old enough letting them become hands on as well. Aside from all of this I enjoy taking children to the park, the zoo, the pool, and COSI if allowed by the parents. Thank you for reviewing my profile and please feel free to reach out.

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.

Hi, I’m Lisa. I raised three children on my own, and they’re now successful adults. I also have experience in regular daycare settings and in-home childcare, which gives me a solid, real-world understanding of children at every stage. I’m calm, patient, and attentive. I handle routines, transitions, and big emotions with consistency and common sense. I engage with children, and focus on creating a safe, steady, and supportive environment. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and a non-drinker. I have a background check and references available. I enjoy cooking and baking with children and using time in the kitchen as a fun learning experience. Baking naturally teaches measuring, counting, and following directions, while cooking together encourages responsibility and creativity. I’m also a magazine-published cook, and I’m happy to prepare dinner for families when needed. Children are welcome to help if they’re interested. I’m comfortable providing date-night care, overnights, and extended care including weekends. I’m also very comfortable with pets and happy to help with basic pet care. I’m flexible with my schedule and work closely with parents to accommodate their needs. I respect your home, your routines, and your expectations. If you’re looking for experienced, dependable childcare from someone who truly understands children and brings added value to your home, I’d be happy to connect.

🌟 Hi families! I’m Makayla — a licensed social worker and proud Children’s Hospital team member! 🌟 Caring for kids has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. As the oldest child in my family, looking after little ones came naturally, and it quickly became something I genuinely love. Kids bring so much joy, curiosity, and unpredictability — every few minutes is a new adventure, and I adore that. They learn from you, you learn from them, and together you grow. 👶 My Experience I’ve worked with children in a wide variety of settings, including: • Camps • Homes • Churches • Schools I’ve cared for kids of all ages and have served as both an emergency sitter and a labor‑on‑call sitter. Some of my favorite roles include: • Camp counselor for 5th graders • Kidz Kingdom teacher for babies–5-year-olds • After‑school teacher’s aide for kindergarten & 1st grade • Babysitter for many wonderful families • Middle school girls’ soccer coach (a role I absolutely adore!) 🌈 What I Love to Do With Kids Exploring is my favorite way to connect — whether that’s trying new foods, visiting museums, heading to the zoo, checking out local parks, or spending the day at COSI. Kids are naturally curious, and exploring together builds trust, confidence, and joy. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Additional Experience • Comfortable caring for multiples (I’ve managed up to 6 kids at once!) • Experienced with infants • Overnight care available If you’re looking for someone dependable, energetic, and passionate about helping kids learn and grow, I’d love to connect!

I've babysat for the same family for over 5 years, starting when the oldest was two and the youngest was a couple of months old. I love watching kids learn and grow, and I enjoy being part of that experience. Outside of babysitting jobs, I've been a summer camp counselor and volunteer for the College Mentors for Kids organization. I'm value engaging kids in non-electronic activities, like doing crafts, playing games, and taking the kids outside.
