Hi! My name is Angelique, and I’m a 19-year-old university student at the University of Cincinnati. I’ve been babysitting for about two years, caring for children of different ages, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them. I’m patient, reliable, and very attentive to children’s needs. I love engaging kids in activities like reading, playing games, helping with homework, and keeping a consistent routine.
Hello! I am Kimora. I am currently working on my associates in Early Childhood Education and I am a preschool teacher at Learning Grove. I am offering child care, house care, and pet care. I am CPR and first aid certified. I have been babysitting since I was 9 years old. I love working with children I am extremely patient with them and I just want to gain understanding. I also just want to help them grow and learn. My childhood gives me the passion to make sure children can have the best supportive environment I can give them.
Hi! I’m Tre’ci, I am offering weekend and date night child care! I am a medical assistant with five years experience in pediatrics! I am CPR/first aid certified in all ages. I love being able to help families take care of their littles! I have been babysitting for over 10 years, with experience from newborns to preteens. My responsibilities have included but not limited to, preparing meals and feeding children, pickup/drop off to school/daycare and extra circular activities, light house work and taking the kids out for adventures!
Hi, I'm Liz. I am a mother of 2 adult children and currently a grandmother to my 2 year old grand daughter. I am comfortable with newborns through teens, and elder care. I love dogs but am allergic to cats. I'm available for babysitting, errand running, cooking, cleaning, house sitting, pet sitting, or just to keep someone company or do a wellness check. I have a safe car. I love dancing and singing and playing educational games, cards, riding bikes, going to the park, and having fun in general. I am very well versed in assisting elderly clients with mobility, including wheelchair bound clients. I can help organize closets, cleaning, and general housework. I generally don't work weekends but can make exceptions. I am happy, healthy, and very personable. I ran my own business for 30 years but it got wiped out due to covid, so I am trying to work doing something I love, which is taking care of people/pets.
I have over 6 years of experience caring for children and have worked with more than 50 kids of different ages. Through this experience, I’ve developed strong skills in supervising, engaging children in fun and educational activities, preparing simple meals, and maintaining a safe and positive environment. I am comfortable working with pets . I’m patient, responsible, and dependable, and I genuinely enjoy building connections with kids and supporting families by helping with household tasks when needed. 😊👶

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
