Elizabeth $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Elizabeth, and I’m a 24-year-old dependable, compassionate, and energetic caregiver with over 12 years of childcare experience. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old and have had the opportunity to care for children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to older children. I also have experience caring for a child with autism, which has strengthened my patience, understanding, and ability to adapt to each child’s unique needs. I genuinely love working with children and strive to create a safe, loving, and fun environment where they feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I enjoy engaging kids through creative play, outdoor activities, reading, arts and crafts, educational games, and age-appropriate learning experiences. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with both children and their families through kindness, consistency, and open communication. In addition to childcare, I have three years of experience dog sitting for my sister, ensuring her pets were well cared for, exercised, fed, and loved while she was away. I also have experience house sitting for a three-week period, where I responsibly maintained the home, cared for the property, and handled daily tasks. These experiences have strengthened my reliability, responsibility, and attention to detail. I’m comfortable with pets and happy to help care for them as part of your family’s routine. I’m highly organized, responsible, and dependable. I can assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, maintaining daily routines, diaper changes, potty training support, bedtime routines, homework help, and transportation when needed. I have a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation, making it easy to assist with school drop-offs and pick-ups, appointments, extracurricular activities, or outings. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, nurturing, and dependable. I treat every child with the same love, respect, and attention I would want for my own family. My goal is to provide parents with peace of mind, knowing their children are in a safe, caring, and supportive environment. Highlights * Over 12 years of babysitting experience * Experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children * Experience caring for a child with autism * Three years of dog-sitting experience * Three weeks of house-sitting experience * Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation * Comfortable caring for pets * Patient, compassi

Estacia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi name is Estacia (Staci) Simpson. I am a current substitute teacher and I’m looking for extra work to help people with their needs and to supplement my income. I am from the Cincinnati, Ohio area and I’m looking to help out those who are in need of care. I have experience working with children toddler to school age. I prefer school age children to work with but either is fine. I am great with animals too. I have a cat named Zelda and she’s around seven years old. She’s my world and fun to be around. I love dogs too and I’m willing to help with animal care needs as well. I am a very helpful person and I do my best to be able to give my best of care to those in need.

"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!"
