A little bit about me
I do not have formal paid childcare experience, but I regularly care for my niece, who enjoys spending time with me. I help supervise her, play with her, and make sure she is safe and comfortable. Through this, I’ve learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to a child’s needs.
In addition, I have strong experience caring for animals. I volunteer at a dog facility and help care for dogs by feeding, walking, and supervising them. I also babysit dogs for relatives. I genuinely love both children and animals and enjoy caring for them in a responsible and compassionate way.

Hi, my name is Megan Kim and I am going to be a third year at Biola University, located in California, studying HR. I just wrapped up my semester abroad in Korea, so am looking for a babysitting gig before I go back to school. I have babysat kids of all ages, worked summer camps with kids, and even tutored kids before. I enjoy working with kids because of their energy and it keeps me young. I am willing to help out around the house, put the kids to sleep, and even take care of any pets. I am very open minded, so I hope that I would be a great fit for your family. Your child’s safety is my number one priority!

A little bit about me
Hello I’m a 14 year old looking for experience in caring for children. I love working and making a connection with kids. Soon I will be in high School and I’m hoping having a job will give me experience in working. I have experience in cooking and basically grew up in a bakery. I am willing to cook, clean and entertain. I do not have a drivers license so I can’t drive but I promise I’m a blast! I have Type 1 Diabetes and am open to helping disabled children. I live in palatine IL and would love to work somewhere close to home. My working schedule would be part time because I am still in school and play volleyball. My schedule is flexible and I’m willing to work late nights on weekends. Thanks for reading my bio and I hope you consider me to babysit for your kid(s)!

A little bit about me
My name is Elle, I’m 22 years old and I just graduated from Illinois State University with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies - Child Development. I began college with an Elementary Education degree. For my first 3 years I took education and teach classes along with clinicals in elementary classrooms. I switched my major because I’d like to go into social work to ultimately work with DCFS one day. I participated in the Early Childhood program at Palatine High School where I got to be apart of the Pirate Pete Preschool from 19’-22’.
I’ve babysat kids and worked summer camps since I was around 15. Some of my favorite things to do with the kiddos is arts + crafts, going outside, the park, the pool, board games, dress up, video games, make up/ self care, playing with dolls or cars and so much more! I’m high energy but I can also wind down and relax with the kids. I’m open to over nights depending on the day as well!
