Christian $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Christian but I also go by Azariah. I am currently studying at KSU, and am looking for a side gig to allow me to still work as I go to school. I am currently offering services for kids, pets, and household. As the oldest of a huge family, I have been helping to take care of kids since I could talk. I have also had professional experience as a baby sitter since the age of 13. I have handled kids with disabilities as well as adults. I have a cat of my own so I am well versed with taking care of animals. I am a very hands on person so I try to help kids with learning as well as school work. I am also a big foodie and love to cook, the more people the better. I do have a driver's license as well so I can run errands and the like. I can bring trusted to clean up any messes whether it be mine or someone else's.
Layla $13 per hour for 1 child
Hi!! My name is Layla and I am currently a freshman at Kent State majoring in fashion design. I grew up babysitting my younger cousins quite frequently, and as I got older I started babysitting for family friends and families from my church. Over the years I have really come to love babysitting because getting to know each kid is such a fun and new experience. I’ve always loved kids because they are so naturally loving and full of surprises. Because of this, babysitting can sometimes be a challenge, but I pride myself in staying calm even under pressure. I also have experience in sewing, baking, arts and crafts, and would be able to help with early stages of childhood literacy, reading comprehension, or homework. I am also willing to help with light meal prep and tidying up at the end of the day. Punctuality, safety, and household rules and routines are my top priorities. I can’t wait to hear from you and get to know you and your family!
