Emma Covington
$18 per hour for 1 child

My name is Emma :) I am 20 years old and currently living in Covington, Kentucky, where I am enrolled in the nursing program at the University of Cincinnati. I am training to be a NICU/pediatric trauma nurse. Before I moved here for college, I lived in a small town in Ohio and loved babysitting for nearby families a couple of times a week, and especially on the weekend. I have been babysitting ages 1-12 since I was 16 years old. I am available most days except Thursdays from 11 am-3 pm due to classes. I have also gone through a child CPR class and 3 babysitting courses through the American Red Cross. I am also able to make meals, clean the house, and feed pets as well. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Sophia Cincinnati
$16 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Newport, KY

Hi! My name is Sophia and I am a senior at UC. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I am a PCA at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital in the step-down for the cardiac intensive care unit. I am BLS/CPR certified. I have three years of experience at my job, especially with infants and toddlers. I have nine years of babysitting experience prior to my job- but am often involved in one-on-one patient care and responsible for “babysitting” an infant or toddler who needs extra medical attention or comfort for the duration of my shift. I have two dogs and a cat- and have cared for a plethora of other pets before! I can drive, run errands, clean, and cook/bake. I have payment rates for varying scenarios on my profile but am flexible surrounding my pay.

Hi- My name is Olivia and I am a Junior at the University of Cincinnati majoring in elementary education. I’m offering child and pet care as well as house-hold duties. I have been babysitting for a number of families for a little over 6 years now and have been certified with CPR and first aid training. I have also been a camp counselor for multiple camps throughout the years. I’ve been a nanny throughout the summer for a 6month old and a 9 yr old. Now that I am back in college I would love to meet a family in Cincinnati that I can become a part of:) I have always loved kids and being able to help them with whatever it is for that family. My responsibilities have been cleaning, crafts, tutoring, diaper changes, meal prep, dance/gymnastics lessons and I am more than happy to run errands! I’m experienced with children from 4 months to 11 years old:) I want to create a fun, comfortable, and creative environment for the kids and love providing engaging activities for us to do. My main goal is to create a fun, healthy relationship with the kids!
