A little bit about me
Hi Families! I am excited to get to work with children in a home setting, as I am use to working in a classroom setting- while babysitting on the side. I have 4 years of experience as an Early Childhood Educator — from infants to preschool, and 8 total years of paid childcare work. I am looking for new ways to provide childcare and assistance to families within my community. I grew up spending time outside playing sports, walking the dogs, water play, as well as reading, writing, and drawing. I still love those activities, and have found love in hiking and biking as well. I have multiple years of experience with special needs children, as well as extensive experience teaching children with ADHD and children who are on the autism spectrum.

A little bit about me
Hi there! I'm a 22-year-old senior in college. I am majoring in political science with an emphasis in legal studies and I am so excited to graduate this spring. Some of my interests include crafting, calligraphy, baking, fashion, and of course, childcare.
I have been a babysitter/nanny for 11 years now, and have worked with over 20 different families. I have experience with kids of all ages, from newborns to pre-teens. I'm not afraid of stinky diapers, baths, or bedtimes. Believe me, I've seen it all! In addition to my experience, I am also a Red Cross Certified Babysitter and am CPR Certified. Most importantly, I love little kiddos and sincerely enjoy getting to meet and connect with new families.
While I am currently attending school in Northern California, I will be moving to the Chicagoland area in mid-August. I am so excited to come back to my roots in the Midwest and I can't wait to find a new family to nanny for along the way.

A little bit about me
Hello! I’m a Benedictine graduate fluent in English and Spanish, currently learning Assyrian. I’m looking to babysit for more flexibility to pursue my passions. I have experience caring for three kids—a baby and two in grade school—for a non-related family, plus I grew up in a large family with 14 nieces and nephews. In my family, I am known as the babysitter!
From 2019 to 2022, I nannied two of my nieces while following my sister's preferences, like no TV and specific routines. I enjoy being creative, especially drawing, and I love fostering a positive, fun environment for kids. I also use a Montessori approach to support their individual development.
I’m transitioning from a dental administrative career, and babysitting will allow me to focus on my creative goals. I’m excited about the opportunity to work with your kids!
