A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Alex and I have always loved working with children. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and my Master's Degree in Learning and Technology. I am currently in my 8th year of teaching. In my experience, I have worked with students of various ages and abilities. Because of my background in education, my focus goes beyond supervision. I aim to support your child’s emotional, physical, and developmental growth. A typical day with me includes engaging activities, time for outdoor exploration, and assistance with homework, routines, and skill-building. I have extensive experience working alongside children with special needs, including implementing IEPs, managing ADHD/executive functioning challenges, and utilizing positive behavior intervention strategies. My credentials include an active CPR & First Aid certification, completed mandated reporter training, and a reliable car and clean driving record.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Caylie I am 20 years old, and I'm an aspiring private old school and illustrative tattoo artist! Upon moving to chicago, I will be in the process of getting all of my licenses, and will need plenty of work to pay for it! I grew up as the oldest sister of 6, and my youngest sibling is an infant. I am well-versed in caring for children ages 0-9, however, I would prefer ages 1 and up. I also grew up coaching gymnastics at my gym, to pay for my lessons. Since it paid for my lessons, I wasn't actually paid until my last year coaching. I would love to have the opportunity to help out working, loving families who may not have the opportunity to care for their children at all times.

A little bit about me
Hello
My name is Destiny Anthony, I bring both professional experience and a deep personal passion for working with children. For the past two years, I’ve worked in education as a SECA (Special Education Classroom Assistant) with Chicago Public Schools. This role has given me hands-on experience supporting diverse learners, collaborating with teachers, and creating a safe, nurturing classroom environment. I’ve worked as an ABA Behavioral Therapist, where I provided one-on-one support to children with developmental needs. I’m currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education at Grand Canyon University. My goal is to continue making a difference in children’s lives—helping them grow emotionally, socially, and academically.
I’m truly passionate about creating loving, structured, and enriching environments where children feel safe and supported. I would love the opportunity to bring that same energy and care into your home.
Thank you for considering me!

Recent reference
"Abigail was my son’s infant daycare teacher for a few months. When she chose to leave the daycare we asked her to babysit and has been doing so ever since. My son loves when she babysits and she does arts and crafts with him, which we love to display in our home. She is very sweet and her love for kids is apparent. She has always taken great care of my son. We will continue to hire her as needed!"
