Hello! Thank you for considering me as a possible childcare provider for your children. I have about 13 years of experience working in childcare. My experience includes caring for children for short periods of time up to all day care-giving with responsibilities such as meals, driving to school, extracurricular activities, and doctors appointments, along with homework, outdoor activities, indoor play, and reading activities. My experience is with children age newborn-14. I love cooking healthy meals, and finding ways to get spurts of exercise in throughout the day; and I love taking advantage of good weather by doing outdoor activities during the summer months when they are not in school, along with library trips for reading and social activities. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!
Hello, My name is Amy. I love learning, and walking on trails at preserves to enjoy Ohio’s natural beauty. I love art and music as well, and my friends would describe me as caring, fun, reliable, and responsible. I babysat a lot in middle school. In high school, I volunteered for a couple months every summer at the Museum of Science and Industry’s Summer Science Camp in Tampa, Florida. I went on to receive my Associate of Arts from Florida State University. I have a dog named Faith that I adore. I also have dog sitting experience throughout my life as well as taking care of paraplegics, school-age kids, pets, and seniors.
I’m an experienced babysitter who has cared for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I’m passionate about encouraging positive behavior, supporting emotional growth, and creating a safe, fun environment where each child feels seen and valued. I treat every child I care for like my own, and there’s nothing more rewarding than watching them grow, learn, and thrive. Whether it’s helping with homework, calming a fussy baby, or building forts and imaginary worlds, I’m all in. I’d really love to be part of your child’s world and help them grow with kindness, care, and encouragement along the way.
Hi! I’m Alyssa, I’m 22 and I grew up as the oldest of 11 kids. I have been the designated as the babysitter in all of my extended family and am very accustomed to caring for any amount of kids of any ages. As my main job I teach swimming/water safety lessons, I am also currently an assistant coach for elementary colorguard certified through a school district. Pets are no problem! If you have any animal, I can almost guarantee I have worked with it before. I have bottle-fed kittens, vaccinated goats, chased down chickens, I volunteer feeding/handling snakes/other reptiles weekly, and have been the proud owner of 4 parrots myself! I have also served as a live-in caregiver for my grandparents for months at a time until they could be moved into permanent care. I graduated High school from Miami Valley Career Technology center studying Fire/EMS, receiving training in first aid and CPR in the event of an emergency.
I took care of my siblings and basically raised them, so I've spent my entire life taking care of two siblings, helping them with homework and cooking them food to eat and all that stuff! I do fun, crafty stuff too, I like going to the park when it's warmer outside. I also have experience with babies, i absolutely love babies and am planning to have at least 2 of my own! 😁😁

"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
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
