Skye Akron
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Skye!😊 I’ve been working with kids for a long time. I started babysitting my younger cousins around age 12–13, mostly kids under 5 and infants. From there, I helped out at my great-aunt’s in-home daycare whenever I didn’t have school and sometimes after. I babysat a lot throughout middle school and high school for families in Twinsburg and for family members. My senior year, I worked in an after-school program, and during 12th grade I was also an assistant after-school childcare director at the Carl Reminderville Athletic Club. The summer after I graduated, I worked full-time at an in-home daycare called Kayla Cares for Kids as an assistant daycare teacher. Since then, I’ve gone back to babysitting and nannying. I’m now a sophomore at the University of Akron majoring in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Child Development. I also work as a substitute paraprofessional in the Cuyahoga Falls City School District, mostly in elementary schools. I have all my background checks through the state of Ohio, and one of my classes has me observing in an elementary school this semester too. I really love working with kids and feel very comfortable with all ages.

Sydney Akron

Hello! My name is Sydney and I have been working with children since I was a senior in high school. I started my journey working with school aged kids, but realized I seemed to thrive working with younger children. I decided to work in preschools and found my passion there, but I really enjoy working with children of any age. I have spent time as an intern for a children’s choir and I have a vast knowledge of music. I have also spent time working at a sports camp for young girls, so I have some sports knowledge as well!

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."
