Hi! My name is Angelique, and I’m a 19-year-old university student at the University of Cincinnati.

Hi – I’m Meg, a recent graduate from The Seven Hills School and an incoming freshman at Miami University. I offer child care, pet care, and household support. I’ve nannied for a family of three and babysat kids ages 5–13. I’m a Red Cross certified lifeguard and worked as a camp counselor, leading activities and supervising kids in both small and group settings. My responsibilities have included school and practice pickups, helping with summer reading and math homework, crafts, prepping meals, supervising swimming, and managing routines like bedtime and screen-time. I’m happy to help with errands, laundry, pet care, and anything else that supports your family. I have a driver’s license and my own transportation. Growing up with two sisters, I’ve always loved working with kids and making sure they feel safe, supported, and have as much fun as possible! I’m dependable, organized, and flexible to fit your needs
Hello all, I am Sierra! I am a junior college student at Xavier University in Cincinnati. I have some babysitting experience (about 7 years) because I was raised as a military brat and would frequently watch my younger brother, my parents' friends, and various other kids. My mom also used to foster kids. Not only that, but I am in a STEM major, so I can definitely help out with the homework as well. Lastly, I have a very outgoing personality and will be great to have!! :)
Hi! My name is Emma, and I am currently a sophomore pre-occupational therapy student at UC. I offer childcare and household services. I’ve loved working with children since high school, when I was a student aide in a pre-K classroom. I’m patient, dependable, and safety-focused, and my studies in occupational therapy give me a strong understanding of child development. I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping and creating a fun, supportive environment for your family.
