Hi! I’m a dedicated and nurturing caregiver with over three years of experience working with children in both home and church settings. I’ve been a nanny to an 8-year-old boy, a 5-year-old girl, and their sweet dog for about a year. I’ve also served in the childcare ministry at my church for two years, where I gained valuable experience caring for children of all ages. I also write children’s books, so I love engaging kids in storytelling, crafts, and other creative activities that spark imagination and build confidence. I’m passionate about providing a safe environment where children can thrive emotionally, spiritually, and developmentally. I believe every child deserves to be protected, encouraged, and loved just like family. I’d love to support your family with care you can truly count on!
Hello!! My name is Jackie; I’m a recent Marietta College graduate earning my BA in strategic communications!! I am offering childcare, senior care, & household services! I’ve been working professionally in childcare the last two years with a nonprofit educational foundation working with children ages 3+. I am CPR certified & have had multiple online state certified trainings. I also have worked privately for families with up to 4 children youngest being 3 mo since I was 15! My responsibilities have included driving to/from daycare, crafts, homework, enrichment activities, & more! While I have more experience in childcare I am comfortable working with seniors as well! I spent time in college volunteering with the local senior center preparing meals, assisting with activities, and helping with transportation duties! I am comfortable with cooking, driving, & other tasks for any age! (I’m also great Euchre partner and a big Disney fan lol!!!) Love all animals especially cats & dogs!
Hello! My name is Erinn. I am 33 years and have a 15 year old daughter. I have a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and a Master’s degree in Special Education with a certification in Autism Spectrum Disorders. I have been working with children for 12 years and teaching for 10 years. I am currently a Pre-K teacher for Columbus City Schools. I love working with children of all ages.
Since the age of 12, I have naturally embraced the role of a caregiver. As a mother of six children, whose ages range from 7 to 16, I have firsthand experience in nurturing and guiding young minds. My involvement extends beyond my family; I volunteer in children's church services, where I care for infants and toddlers, ensuring they are engaged and structured during their time there. Professionally, I work as a juvenile corrections officer for the state of Ohio, interacting daily with youth from all over the state. This role has deepened my passion for helping young people navigate their challenges, and I find fulfillment in making a positive impact in their lives. I believe my experiences allow me to offer valuable support to children and families, and I would love to bring that dedication to your household. Additionally, I have a profound appreciation for the elder generation. Raised by my maternal grandmother, I cherish the lessons and wisdom she imparted. In her later years, I had the honor of being there for her, planning her final wishes and ensuring her comfort. This experience has reinforced my understanding of the value of companionship and care for our elders. I would be grateful for the opportunity to share my love and experience with both the younger and older generations in your family. Thank you for considering my application.
I am an older sister of 2 sisters and 5 brothers. I have taken care of them my whole life and am very good with kids. I volunteered at a daycare/ summer camp taking care of infants in the mornings and school age children in the afternoon once school let out. I graduated OSU 2 years ago and would love to help with homework. If you need someone to drop off or pickup I would be available since my full time job is work from home and flexible. I am also available to baby-sit overnight if really needed on weekdays and for sure on weekends. I do live with a partner and am willing to have them meet with parents as well. They are also a current OSU student in grad school for architecture.
