Melissa $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Berwyn, IL
I'm a loving aunt to several nieces and nephews, as well as a big animal lover with two cats of my own! I love engaging with children's curiosity and interests. More than that, I love teaching them about all sorts of things, and learning from them in return. I particularly enjoy cooking and baking. I'm happy to meet with you and your family to find out if I'm a good fit for you!
Catie $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Catie, and I'm a dedicated caregiver with a passion for supporting children's development. I'm 23 years old with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Carleton College and am preparing to pursue a doctorate in Clinical Psychology in August. Currently, I work at a therapeutic preschool for children with developmental disabilities, where I've gained hands-on experience and skills in providing personalized support. With about four years of childcare experience, including one year with children on the Autism spectrum, I bring a compassionate, informed approach to caregiving. I'm CPR and First-Aid Certified and trained as an EMT, ensuring a safe environment for your child. Although I work weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 pm, I'm available for babysitting on weekends or weekday evenings. I look forward to connecting with your family and helping create a nurturing, engaging experience for your child!
Julia $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Berwyn, IL
My name is Julia! I am 20 years old and I am a college student. I love taking care of and having fun with children. I am reliable and trustworthy. I have 6 years of experience babysitting a wide range of ages from infants to middle school aged children. I have also tutored elementary and middle school children, so I'm more than willing to help with any work they might have. I played varsity basketball all throughout my time in highschool, I love to play any sports with kids, and would love to teach basketball (if interested) for a fun time outside!:) Look forward to hearing from you!

My name is Gracie. I was a part time babysitter/nanny for various families over 7 years before going full time corporate. I have worked with families in the city, and Oak Park/River Forest mostly as that is where I attended undergrad at Dominican University. My experience is with children aged newborn-13. I have ran errands, done pick-up/drop-off before, administered medicines, dealt with food allergies, tutored/e-learning and general activities. I have also house-sat and cared for pets while families were on vacation. Happy to provide references!
