A little bit about me

Hello- my name is Jesi! I am a 21 year old, senior accounting major at Kent State University. I have been babysitting and caring for kids since I was 12 years old. I have worked with all kids anywhere from and infant to 15 years old. I love caring for kids as they're all so fun and unique in their own ways! There has not been a child I have not gotten along with. I love going on adventures, playing games, reading books, and more. I do not mind housekeeping or cooking. During the pandemic, I was a nanny to 5 kids from ages 3-11. I can honestly say it was the most rewarding job I've had. I help to facilitate the online learning environment, came up with fun activities at home, and provided breakfast/lunch every day. I stopped nannying as I was offered an amazing internship and the pandemic chaos was slowing down. I would love to be a nanny until I earn my degree and become fully-immersed into the "adult world".

I would be able to tutor in any subject, clean, cook healthy options, and more with your children.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sarah and I would love the opportunity to support your family as a full-time nanny and household manager. I have over five years of professional nannying experience caring for children ranging in age from 1 to 14 years old. In addition to my nanny experience, I earned a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education with a Minor in Special Education. My background has given me the knowledge and skills to support children at every stage of development while creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment. I have also worked as a 2nd grade teacher and most recently as a Title I Tutor, where I provided individualized and small-group instruction for students in kindergarten through 5th grade. These experiences have strengthened my ability to foster children's academic, social, and emotional growth through patience, creativity, and positive encouragement. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and discuss how I can best support your needs. Thank you!

A little bit about me

I am a Kent State student who will be moving there from Medina in the fall to pursue my goal of becoming a high school language arts teacher! In the meantime, I have done a lot of child care work already. I have been babysitting fir about 10 years. I have done student teaching for grades 4-12. I am currently an employee at Right at School in Brunswick, a before and after school care program for kindergarten through fifth graders. I also have younger sisters and family members, so while I am used to school aged children, I am open to infants as well. I went to the career center for their medical program and was first aid and CPR certified (along with several other certifications).As long as a family is willing to work around school, my schedule is very open. I am so excited to move to Kent and find a great family to nanny for!
