Hi! My name is Nalini. I'm a dependable and nurturing caregiver with over 6 years of hands-on childcare experience. I'm 22 years old and began babysitting at age 15. Caring for children, especially infants and toddlers, has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I've cared for children in both personal and professional settings. I've had the privilege of caring for twin baby girls from infancy through age 5. I also regularly care for my godson and niece, both born in 2021, and have been helping care for them since birth, they're now 4 years old. Most recently, I've been caring for my newest niece who was born in January 2025, so I'm very familiar with the needs of young infants. I specialize in providing calm, attentive care for one to two children at a time, where I can focus on their individual routines, development, and emotional needs. I am CPR certified, and your child's safety and well-being are always my top priority. In addition to my caregiving experience, I'm a licensed real estate professional, which has helped me become highly organized, reliable, and clear in communication. I have my own transportation and flexible availability. Whether you're looking for a reliable babysitter or an experienced infant caregiver, I'd love to support your family with care, consistency, and compassion!
Hello, my name is Laurin! I am currently a nurse for Cleveland clinic looking for a part time babysitting job. I worked at a before and after school daycare for 3 years. I also started babysitting when I was 14 and loved every minute of it! I have my own transportation and am willing to go to practices, movies, etc. if requested. I am more than qualified to help with school activities, cleaning house, making any meals, etc. I am willing to negotiate prices and absolutely can meet the family before setting anything up, let me know if anyone has questions!
Hi! I'd be happy to be your occasional date-night sitter! I've been babysitting for 14 yrs, and I'm very friendly, fun, trustworthy, and dependable. Prior to babysitting I was a flight attendant for 28 yrs, and each yr I had 2 days of emergency requalification, including CPR/First Aid. I enjoy playing with kids indoors and out, helping them to learn, and reading to them. I've been the 1st-time non-family sitter for most of the families I've worked for, and children feel comfortable with me really quickly. I work on call, weekday and weekend evenings from 5 pm - 2 am, 20/hr for one child and $25/hr for two children, with a 4 hr min. I take cash or check only. Short notice jobs are welcome; as long as I haven't already made plans I may be available within 3-4 hrs. I have twenty-eight 5-star reviews from two other babysitting sites, as well as a great written reference from parents whose son I took care of from 1 - 4.5 yrs-old before they moved to Europe, and I still work for them every Summer when they return to this area; I'd be happy to send you those reviews and reference. Thanks so much for reading my profile!
Hi! My name is Cherrie. I currently work as a Clinical Technician in a Pediatric ICU at Cleveland Clinic. I am BLS/CPR certified. I have a bachelor’s degree in Organizational Leadership and I’m currently working towards a nursing degree. I have experience providing care for people of all ages, from infants to seniors. I am patient, attentive, dependable, and easygoing. I’m comfortable with playtime, homework help, bedtime routines, games, and other activities they enjoy. I’m mainly looking for occasional babysitting, date nights, and flexible care that I can work around my hospital schedule. I’d love to connect with families looking for a sitter they can trust and call again!
Hello! I just moved here from Washington DC. I went to school in Austin, Texas and am originally from Arizona! I'm currently a graduate student at Case Western and looking to provide some support for a family while maintaining a flexible schedule! I have been a nanny since I was in highschool as well as a tutor. I worked in a pediatric clinic for 2 years as a lead medical assistant and laboratory technician. I've volunteered in hospice and a variety of other clinical care settings as doing clinical work is my passion. I plan on continuing in the healthcare field after my graduate studies and would love to find an opportunity that lets me utilize my passions and hobbies for caring and education! I enjoy crafts, puzzles, reading, creative writing, pets, dancing and live art (theatre, music, etc.)! I am also very active and love playing volleyball, practicing yoga and going on hikes! I was a very active and busy child and want to being that same philosophy for life my parents instilled in me into any home looking for structure and engagement, at any age :)
