She would make them good snacks / lunch. She was very good with time management.She was very respectful. I had to let her go only because i moved out of town. I would hire her back if i could.

Hello! My name is Hope! I am 21 years old and have a major passion for kids and their futures. I am majoring in Early Childhood Education at The Ohio State University, and have experience in environmental education! I have 6+ years of experience babysitting. I have done live-in sitting for weeks at a time, gone on trips with families, and have had kiddos stay with me at my home while parents have been away. I also have experience taking care of pets, helping with household chores, 3+ years experience tutoring, and basic home ec. education. I have also house-sat for multiple families that I was nannying for while they were away. My hobbies include reading, exploring new places, doing crafts, and trying new recipes!

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Deborah Danielle Denney. I am 38 years old and I currently am A Caregiver for A 14 year old Autistic boy named Lance. Though I spend a lot of time with Lance, waking him and getting him ready for school, then driving him to school/back- I have a lot of free time that I would much rather spend attending to someones’ needs. The less time I have to spend on myself, the better. I’m guilty of frivolous spending or being an unpaid taxi. Time is money, in my mind.(Spend wisely)
* Unfortunately, I must share the fact that my past has some mistakes and is still haunting me. My husband passed away in 2017 from a brain aneurysm, suddenly, and when I lost him- I somewhat lost myself. I turned to my family for Support and Love and they were doing drugs. So I too began to have an addiction. I’m now 9 years clean and sober and I take part in meetings, and have A sponsor. Proving my Character as it is today is all I can do.
Thank you for your time and hopefully, your understanding.

A little bit about me
I am a compassionate, dependable caregiver who truly finds joy in supporting children as they grow, learn, and feel safe in the world around them. My experience working with children including those with special needs has shaped my patience, creativity, and ability to meet each child where they are. I believe every child deserves to feel understood, encouraged, and valued.
Being a nanny is more than a job to me it’s about building trust with both children and families, creating a nurturing environment, and becoming a positive, steady presence in a child’s life. Whether I’m helping with daily routines, supporting development, or simply sharing meaningful moments through play and learning, I bring genuine care and dedication to everything I do.
