Hi! My name is Emily. I'm a 4th year medical student looking to connect with my community and offset some of medical school's high costs. I am offering child care, dog care, and household services. During my training I have cared for pediatric patients in both acute (emergency), inpatient, and clinic settings. I love working with kids and am currently interviewing with pediatric residency programs! I am BLS certified for infants, children, and adults. I have experience babysitting for children between 2 months and 12 years. I believe it's my duty as a caregiver to help create a safe and magical world for children to explore. When babysitting I love taking the kids to explore outside, reading books, and making up any wacky games I can think of! I am a dog owner and feel comfortable caring for most dogs. I have a car and am happy to do any appointment/activity drop off, grocery shopping, cooking, or cleaning needed in the household.
Hi! My name is Maria. I am 24 years old and looking for occasional babysitting opportunities. I have numerous years of babysitting experience.

I’d love to take care of your little ones!🩷
I am a sophomore in college at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. I have years of experience working with all ages. My younger sister is 13 years my junior and I have cared for her since she was born. I was a youth leader with the Neighborhood Boys and Girls Clubs in Chicago and a camp counselor and daycare worker with JCYS. I have been a full time summer nanny for a family with two children under the ages of 6 for the past two years. I have babysit for around 20 families throughout my babysitting career! I am looking for babysitting jobs in Cleveland during the school year and Chicago during Holidays and summers.
“Ava is a wonderful babysitter. She kept my daughter active, having fun and learning while doing things! My daughter LOVES Ava and gets so excited when she is babysitting. I recommend Ava without hesitation. You and your kiddos will love her.”
I'm a loving, joyful, and energetic person with a strong drive and a true passion for childcare. I have experience with children of all ages, including three experiences caring for baby twins and one experience with older twins. I'm responsible, patient, and always attentive to the unique needs of each child. Whether it's playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I bring positivity and dedication to every moment. I also have a reliable car, which allows me to manage school runs, extracurricular activities, and family errands efficiently. I'm currently majoring in Nursing, which has strengthened my knowledge of child development, health, safety, and patient care. I'm fully committed to providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your children.
My name is Julia! I am 20 years old and I am a college student. I love taking care of and having fun with children. I am reliable and trustworthy. I have 6 years of experience babysitting a wide range of ages from infants to middle school aged children. I have also tutored elementary and middle school children, so I'm more than willing to help with any work they might have. I played varsity basketball all throughout my time in highschool, I love to play any sports with kids, and would love to teach basketball (if interested) for a fun time outside!:) Look forward to hearing from you!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
