Estacia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi name is Estacia (Staci) Simpson. I am a current substitute teacher and I’m looking for extra work to help people with their needs and to supplement my income. I am from the Cincinnati, Ohio area and I’m looking to help out those who are in need of care. I have experience working with children toddler to school age. I prefer school age children to work with but either is fine. I am great with animals too. I have a cat named Zelda and she’s around seven years old. She’s my world and fun to be around. I love dogs too and I’m willing to help with animal care needs as well. I am a very helpful person and I do my best to be able to give my best of care to those in need.

Tatiana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hey! I'm Tati, and I've been a stay-at-home mom and homeschool teacher for the past 12 years -- and I've been caring for kids for most of my life. My son started school last year, so I've started doing part-time work babysitting for infants. I was just re-certified in First Aid, CPR, and the Basic Babysitting and Advanced Childcare Training Courses through the American Red Cross. I'm most comfortable caring for infants and toddlers and would prefer to stay within that age group. I don't believe in exposing kids to screens and too much technology too early in life, and instead like to spend time bonding with them. Some things I like to do while babysitting are taking walks, reading, listening to music, singing, dancing, tummy-time, and playing with toys. :)

Jayonna $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Jayonna. I am 21 years old. I am a Sophomore in College at Mount St. Joseph University. I am majoring in Social Work. I've been watching my younger siblings since they were born and I started babysitting for kids in my neighborhood. I have also helped out my god mom in her daycare. As well as working in a couple of Daycares. I love kids of all ages. I enjoy seeing them hit their milestones and overall watching them grow. I love to go out and do activities with them. If it’s nice outside, I like to take the kids out. However, if not we can come up with things to do inside. I love doing arts and craft. In my free time, I love hanging out with my family and friends, bowling , cooking and skating just to name a few.
