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.
Hello!! My name is Ava, and I am a college student at the University of Cincinnati. I am looking for any babysitting job, whether that be a couple days a week or a one time job. I am located near campus but am willing to drive. I have extensive experience when working with kids of all ages, from being a camp counselor at Round Lake, to volunteering as an active babysitter for my church and being a lead in the childrens ministry. I am available on weekends and some days during the week. I am skilled in meal prep, changing diapers, homework help, sleep schedules, light cleaning, and I have a car for transportation. I can pick up from school. I enjoy playing games and going on adventures with the children and am comfortable with all pets. I am very patient with kids. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you and your family is interested in or if you have any questions!!
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!

I’m patient, reliable, and very attentive to children’s needs. I love engaging kids in activities like reading, playing games, helping with homework, and keeping a consistent routine.
