Michael Akron
$13 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Michael , but I like to go by Blu (pronounced like the color). I am 18 years old. I am offering to babysit, pet sit and/or house sit. I don't have too much experience with children, but I did watch a kid for a friend a couple times when I was 17. I am good with animals, but I'm cautious and a little on edge around pitbulls and Rottweilers. I can clean, I am good at woodworking, and good with technology. I am a good listener, though I have bad memory sometimes. I do walk, so it may take a little bit to get there.

Naszier Akron
$13 per hour for 1 child

What makes me a good caregiver is having fun and building connections with the one’s I will supervise. I have two dogs and also a baby cousin that I would babysit A-LOT so i would say that i am experienced in caregiving for infants/toddlers, pets, and possibly seniors. I am also a very clean person so the family will not have to worry about coming back home to a mess. I chose this because I feel like I have a connection with babies I just love them, and also pets.

Emily Akron
$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.
