A little bit about me

Responsible, creative, and full of energy—I’m the oldest of five siblings, so babysitting is second nature to me. My aunt runs a daycare, giving me hands-on experience with kids of all ages. I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to ferrets, snakes, and even spiders, so pets are no problem! I write songs and stories, play multiple instruments, and can whip up a decent meal. Need deep cleaning? I’ve got that covered too. Plus, I have reliable transportation, so getting to you is never an issue. Your kids (and pets) are in good hands!

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping kids active and engaged! With my background in D2 volleyball at Roosevelt University and years of playing soccer, baseball, track and field, cross country, and cycling, I enjoy organizing fun sports games and outdoor activities. I can also teach the basics of bowling for a little friendly competition. For creative time, I love writing stories and songs, playing instruments, and encouraging kids to explore their imagination. Whether it’s active play, arts and crafts, or helping with homework, I make sure every moment is fun and meaningful!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where kids feel valued and supported. It’s about being a role model, a caregiver, and a friend—someone they can trust and learn from. Every child is unique, and I believe in nurturing their interests, encouraging their creativity, and making them feel at home, even when their parents are away.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite nanny moments was when a toddler I was watching insisted on giving me a “makeover.” I thought it would be harmless—maybe some pretend makeup or a cute hairstyle. Nope. Five minutes later, I had half a jar of peanut butter smeared in my hair, stickers covering my face, and a tutu wrapped around my head like a turban. The best part? The kid looked me dead in the eyes and said, “You’re beautiful… like a fancy chicken.” I’ve never laughed harder in my life.

Victoria P. - Seeking Work in Chicago

Babysitter Available in Chicago, IL: Victoria P.

Hi! My name is Tori, and I'm 30 years old. I live in Chicago's Gold Coast and work full-time at CB2. I'm looking for weeknight and weekend babysitting opportunities outside of my regular work hours.

Caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I grew up babysitting and have nannied for multiple families over the years. My experience includes caring for twins, a family with three children ages 6, 9, and 11, and another family with two children ages 10 and 12. Through these experiences, I've become comfortable managing multiple kids, helping with homework, preparing meals, creating fun activities, and maintaining consistent routines.

I love building genuine relationships with children and creating a safe, engaging, and positive environment where they can have fun. I'm dependable, patient, organized, and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust.

I'd love to connect with families looking for a reliable sitter for evenings or weekends.
