Booked by 1 family in Peninsula, OH

Hi! Next time meet you! My name is Gina and I am a proud mom of 4 children. I have 3 sons and 1 daughter their ages are 8, 6, 4, and 2. I love children with my whole heart and soul. My children are the greatest gift I have ever been given. The joy I receive from educating, nurturing children is a blessing. I always had a fondness for children as I looked forward to baby sitting my friends younger siblings. There is a song lyric I think about often it is “find something that you love and do it everyday, do that for the rest of your life and the world will change.” This is how I feel about childhood education and child care and why I am passionate about it. I believe how we raise children is the most important thing we can do to change the world. I believe all children are a gift from God. All of my experience and self education is life experience and reading books such as How to Talk so Kids will Listen and How to Listen so Kids will Talk, Whole Brain Child, and No Drama Discipline. I believe in gentle parenting to my core. Gentle parenting does not mean hands off parenting. It keeps adults educated on controlling emotions and parenting from an executive function part of the brain instead of a primal impulsive one (emotional). The behaviors we want to see in our children starts with us. I believe in using connection to foster respect for the positive behavior not punishment. Another thing I prioritize in child care is ensuring the children are safe. You ensure this by being involved with the children at all times (do not be on phone) and educating children on unsafe behavior. I also find education important which means being firm on limiting electronics. Encouraging children to use their imagination and reading. I am a Christian and have strong biblical values in case your family does as well. I respect all religions (except satanism) and above all I respect a parent’s choice for how THEY want to raise their child. I am self educated in health and do know how to cook a healthy home cooked meal and encourage children to try new foods by making it fun and silly. Which being fun/silly is usually the best way to motivate a child to do anything lol. Also for dog sitting/walking you can take almost all of my views above and apply to fur babies. Dogs just need love, patience and attention. I also have big love for dogs. Another blessing I feel god gave us is to care for animals. Thank you for taking the time to read. God bless you!

Grace $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Grace and I’m currently in college, about to go into my fourth year. I am offering child care and occasional pet care services. I love babysitting, I’ve been doing it since about 15-16 years old. I’ve babysat ranges of newborn-12 years old, and some not the best well behaved children. I have also babysat up to 5 children at one time. I am CPR certified and I have reliable transportation. I have a cat so would be more than comfortable pet sitting cats. I have also pet sat 3 dogs at once on multiple occasions.

Tessa $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Tessa and I am entering my second year studying education at Walsh University! I've been babysitting for about six years, and during that time I've had the opportunity to care for children of different ages. I really enjoy spending time with kids and doing my best to make sure they feel safe, supported, and have fun while they're with me. Babysitting has taught me to be patient, responsible, and dependable, and I always try to treat every family with the same care and respect that I would want for my own. I've also had a dog for most of my life, so I'm very comfortable caring for pets and understand the responsibility that comes with it. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company, I'm happy to help however I can! I'm also more than willing to help out with light household tasks if needed! Overall, I try to be someone families can trust by being reliable, caring, and always willing to learn. I know every family is different, and I do my best to adapt to their routines and rules and provide the best care I can.
