Hello! My name is Talia and I'm currently a sophomore at UIC majoring in Industrial Design. I'm glad to offer child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I love babysitting and have taken care of my cousins and elderly family for as long as I can remember. I love painting and playing with my younger cousins as well as encouraging them to pursue their passions. My responsibilities included driving to/from school and parks, crafts, tutoring, and even Spanish lessons. I dog walked for over a year and even taught tricks! I've worked as a household/personal assistant before and can cook, clean, organize -- you name it.

Hi! I have been working with kids for 15 years. I love playing music and games with the children I work with. I also like to bake and cook teaching the kids valuable skills as well. In the past five years I have babysat children ranging from 6 months old to 12 years old. I nannied and did e-learning/school during the pandemic with a first grader and fifth grader with a range of responsibilities from preparing meals to helping complete classwork to planning activities for the day. I am currently going back to school to be a special education teacher.
“Aileen really helped us out; had a different sitter cancel an hour before and Aileen stepped in quick! Kids had a great time, Aileen was so helpful, and I would definitely have her sit again!!”
