Ellie $12 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ellie, and I’m 18 years old and a senior in high school, planning to study business next year. I’ve been babysitting for over 3 years with experience caring for kids from 10 months old to 13 years old. I’m bubbly, fun, and love creating a positive, engaging environment for kids. I enjoy cooking and cleaning and am always happy to help around the house. I love joining kids in what they’re interested in—whether that’s playing games, doing crafts, sports, or homework. I’m comfortable taking kids to activities or outings and have experience with overnight (“sleepover”) babysitting. I’m reliable, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with kids!

Michel $12 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Michel, but everyone calls me Kells. For the past two years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as a Co-Junior Church Leader, where I’ve worked closely with children of all ages. This role has helped me develop strong leadership, communication, and teamwork skills while teaching me the importance of patience, encouragement, and creating a safe, positive environment for kids to learn and grow. Working with children on a regular basis has given me valuable experience handling different personalities, resolving conflicts calmly, and being someone they can trust and look up to. In addition to my church experience, I’ve also spent many years helping care for my disabled grandmother. Being one of her caregivers has taught me responsibility, compassion, reliability, and the importance of putting others’ needs first. It has required patience, attention to detail, and a willingness to help with daily tasks while ensuring she was cared for with dignity and respect. These experiences have shaped me into a dependable, caring, and hardworking person. I enjoy helping others, work well with people of all ages, and always strive to bring a positive attitude wherever I go. Whether I’m working with children, supporting those who need extra care, or contributing as part of a team, I take pride in being someone others can rely on.

Booked by 2 families in Monroe, OH

Hi there! I recently moved from Tampa, FL to Cincinnati OH as I have my master's degree in social work (MSW). I have 7+ years of experience in nannying and babysitting. I babysit and provide pet care for a variety of families, I'm bilingual in English and Spanish. I have a car, I can cook, clean, and take the child/children anywhere they may need to go. I have no issues with babysitting multiple children. Additionally, I am willing to work with any family if they need low-cost care. I'm available nights, weekends, and am available to accompany your family while traveling. Thank you! :) Things parents/caregivers need to know: -I have no criminal record. -I have not experienced any car accidents, and I'm a cautious driver. -I will not hesitate to provide proof of the COVID-19 vaccine to those who request it.

Haley did a wonderful job sitting for our two-year-old daughter and putting her through her bedtime routine. Would highly recommend!

$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Monroe, OH

Hello! My name is Vaile. I am a sophomore at Miami University studying Primary Education with Minors in Finance and Event Planning. I hope to become a 2nd grade teacher when I graduate. I am on the Water Polo team, and am also in a Sorority.  When I am not involved with these extracurriculars, I enjoy scrapbooking and making crafts.   Prior to college, I played soccer and was on a swim team. I provided swim lessons for 2-15 year-olds, and also served as a lifeguard. I am in the process of re-certifying in CPR and First Aid.   I have a lot of fun ideas for craft projects as well as other at-home activities, depending on your children’s interests. I would also love to help your little ones learn how to swim! My junior and senior year of high school I had an internship with my local elementary where I worked with many diverse learners. I have my teaching assistant certification (ParaPro) from this program. I have also spent many years volunteering at my church with toddlers. I am looking forward to continuing to expand my experience with children of all ages as this is my passion. Any additional time I spend with children now will help me become a better teacher and mother one day.

Vaile was excellent! She connected with us days prior to see what our son liked and to get to know us. She arrived on time and was amazing with our son. He had a great time and spoke highly of Vaile the next day
