Hello, My name is Amy. I love learning, and walking on trails at preserves to enjoy Ohio’s natural beauty. I love art and music as well, and my friends would describe me as caring, fun, reliable, and responsible. I babysat a lot in middle school. In high school, I volunteered for a couple months every summer at the Museum of Science and Industry’s Summer Science Camp in Tampa, Florida. I went on to receive my Associate of Arts from Florida State University. I have a dog named Faith that I adore. I also have dog sitting experience throughout my life as well as taking care of paraplegics, school-age kids, pets, and seniors.

Hi, my name is Marriah. I am currently a student at Sinclair College, working towards my nursing degree. I attend school every Monday and Wednesday. I have experience working with multiple families, mostly those with children who have special needs. I am a very calm and patient person. I grew up with eight siblings, including two-year-old twins. I consider myself a mature and bright spirit. I moved out at 17 and work full-time while attending school. I believe I am a very trustworthy person. I offer services such as cleaning, pet care, cooking, babysitting, or even all of these at the same time.

Sharon Fairborn
$24 per hour for 1 child

Hello! Thank you for considering me as a possible childcare provider for your children. I have about 13 years of experience working in childcare. My experience includes caring for children for short periods of time up to all day care-giving with responsibilities such as meals, driving to school, extracurricular activities, and doctors appointments, along with homework, outdoor activities, indoor play, and reading activities. My experience is with children age newborn-14. I love cooking healthy meals, and finding ways to get spurts of exercise in throughout the day; and I love taking advantage of good weather by doing outdoor activities during the summer months when they are not in school, along with library trips for reading and social activities. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you!
