More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have been caring for children since I was around 9–10 years old and have years of babysitting experience with children of different ages. I also played a major role in helping raise my four younger cousins, giving me hands-on experience with daily routines, meal preparation, playtime, homework help, bedtime routines, and providing a safe, nurturing environment.

Caring for children has always come naturally to me. I am calm, patient, understanding, and dependable. I enjoy building meaningful relationships with children, helping them learn and grow, and creating a positive environment where they feel safe, supported, and loved. Families can count on me to be attentive, responsible, and genuinely invested in their child’s well-being.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging children in a wide variety of fun, educational, and age-appropriate activities. Some of my favorite activities include arts and crafts, reading books, outdoor play, walks to the park, imaginative play, board games, puzzles, sensory activities, music and dancing, baking simple treats together, and helping with homework. I also enjoy encouraging creativity, building confidence, and supporting children’s social and emotional development through everyday play and learning. I’m happy to adapt activities to each child’s interests and developmental stage, and I’m always willing to participate in whatever helps them learn, have fun, and feel supported.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and trusting environment where children feel valued, supported, and encouraged to be themselves. I believe every child deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and someone who genuinely cares about their well-being. My goal is not only to help meet their daily needs but also to encourage their growth, independence, confidence, and creativity while maintaining open, honest communication with their family. I strive to be someone parents can rely on and someone children look forward to spending time with each day.

Amaris M. - Seeking Work in Akron

Babysitter Available in Akron, OH: Amaris M.

I'm a 22 year old female. I'm currently a first year college student, and working as a security guard downtown.

My security job is full time starting in the morning, so my availability is limited to strictly afternoons and onwards on weekdays, excluding Thursdays where I work all day.

I’m completely free morning to night on the weekends however.

I have childcare experience from working at a daycare/preschool from 2021 to 2023. I started as a teacher assistant, and eventually became the lead teacher with my own classroom. Some of my responsibilities included diaper changes, potty training, lesson planning, and meal distribution. In the past, I have also done a few years of paid babysitting for people that I know personally.

I love kids and I always strive to be friendly, safe, and attentive. I also have very open and honest communication, so contact between parents and I will never be a hassle.

I'm able to do any light housework on top of childcare if needed as well! Thank you!
