Kerry $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kerry. I’m 31 years old, a mom of two girls, and I have a dog as well, so caring for both children and pets comes naturally to me. I truly enjoy working with kids and helping them learn, grow, and feel comfortable and safe. I’m also a substitute teacher, which has given me experience working with children of different ages, personalities, and learning needs. I don’t believe in simply “watching” children. I like to keep them engaged, whether that means helping with schoolwork, reading, educational activities, playtime, or working toward age appropriate milestones. I’m dependable, patient, nurturing, attentive, and organized. I understand how important it is for parents to know their children are safe, clean, fed, cared for, and treated with kindness while they’re away. I’m also comfortable with pets and can assist with light household tasks when needed. As a parent myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your children in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, and caring environment where both children and parents can feel comfortable.

Booked by 2 families in Fairfield, OH

Hi there! I recently moved from Tampa, FL to Cincinnati OH as I have my master's degree in social work (MSW). I have 7+ years of experience in nannying and babysitting. I babysit and provide pet care for a variety of families, I'm bilingual in English and Spanish. I have a car, I can cook, clean, and take the child/children anywhere they may need to go. I have no issues with babysitting multiple children. Additionally, I am willing to work with any family if they need low-cost care. I'm available nights, weekends, and am available to accompany your family while traveling. Thank you! :) Things parents/caregivers need to know: -I have no criminal record. -I have not experienced any car accidents, and I'm a cautious driver. -I will not hesitate to provide proof of the COVID-19 vaccine to those who request it.

“Haley did a wonderful job sitting for our two-year-old daughter and putting her through her bedtime routine. Would highly recommend!”

Michel $12 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Michel, but everyone calls me Kells. For the past two years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as a Co-Junior Church Leader, where I’ve worked closely with children of all ages. This role has helped me develop strong leadership, communication, and teamwork skills while teaching me the importance of patience, encouragement, and creating a safe, positive environment for kids to learn and grow. Working with children on a regular basis has given me valuable experience handling different personalities, resolving conflicts calmly, and being someone they can trust and look up to. In addition to my church experience, I’ve also spent many years helping care for my disabled grandmother. Being one of her caregivers has taught me responsibility, compassion, reliability, and the importance of putting others’ needs first. It has required patience, attention to detail, and a willingness to help with daily tasks while ensuring she was cared for with dignity and respect. These experiences have shaped me into a dependable, caring, and hardworking person. I enjoy helping others, work well with people of all ages, and always strive to bring a positive attitude wherever I go. Whether I’m working with children, supporting those who need extra care, or contributing as part of a team, I take pride in being someone others can rely on.

"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!"
