Marissa $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I just moved here from Washington DC. I went to school in Austin, Texas and am originally from Arizona! I'm currently a graduate student at Case Western and looking to provide some support for a family while maintaining a flexible schedule! I have been a nanny since I was in highschool as well as a tutor. I worked in a pediatric clinic for 2 years as a lead medical assistant and laboratory technician. I've volunteered in hospice and a variety of other clinical care settings as doing clinical work is my passion. I plan on continuing in the healthcare field after my graduate studies and would love to find an opportunity that lets me utilize my passions and hobbies for caring and education! I enjoy crafts, puzzles, reading, creative writing, pets, dancing and live art (theatre, music, etc.)! I am also very active and love playing volleyball, practicing yoga and going on hikes! I was a very active and busy child and want to being that same philosophy for life my parents instilled in me into any home looking for structure and engagement, at any age :)

Emily $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Emily , and I am a licensed pediatric occupational therapist with nearly 3 years of experience working with children of all ages. In my career, I’ve had the privilege of supporting kids with a wide range of needs, including those with autism, sensory processing differences, and emotional regulation challenges. I truly love helping kids learn, grow, and reach their potential through play and connection. I’m looking for opportunities to provide safe, supportive, and fun care outside of my therapy schedule, whether that’s babysitting, after-school help, or evening care.

Kristina $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kristina and I am a current sophomore at John Carroll University studying Primary Education with a concentration in Intervention Specialist. I have reliable transportation and am in the process of becoming adult and pediatric CPR certified. I’m also happy to help with pets while caring for children. I’m comfortable with feeding, playing with, and letting pets outside, as well as taking dogs for walks if needed. I’m happy to discuss your pets and their individual routines and needs. I have been working with a PreK-8th grade theater program for over five years. This past summer I have also had the opportunity to be an instructor for a PreK-4th grade theater summer camp. I have also been involved in volunteering with 4th and 6th graders in more academic settings. Throughout these experiences, I have been able to help with homework, facilitate educational activities, provide fun entertainment to children, and get to know each child's specific needs. Overall, I’m looking forward to meeting families and becoming someone you can trust to provide your children with safe, caring, and fun experiences while you’re away!

Kristin $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Kristin, and I have been working with children since early 2020. I am a teacher that loves working with kids, and strives to encourage them to be happy and healthy. I work hard to promote kindness, responsibility, and self-sufficiency. I am patient, warm, and engaging. I am also an academic wizard with an invested interest in any child's academic success. When I am with your child, I bring activities that take them away from screens. Save for dance parties; everyone should get a dance break at least once a day!
