Find a babysitter in Niles, IL

I am an early childhood educator with over a decade of experience in babysitting, nannying, childcare, and teaching! My teaching experience includes special education, Reggio-Emilia and play-based early childhood, reading intervention, and nature education. I have also worked in children's theatre and love imaginative, creative play! I have robust experience in creating learning provocations, sensory play, process-based art projects, and following children's interest to build an emergent curriculum. As a babysitter, I love engaging children in imaginative and pretend play, cooking with children, art projects, staying active, and building strong relationships with families! I have a Master's degree from Vanderbilt University in Child Studies and Development, in addition to being a licensed teacher in elementary and special education. My approach is informed by theories of child development and deep respect for children's agency, capabilities, and independence. I am currently teaching full time but am available for weeknight and weekend babysitting!

My name is Reilly, I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old, and I love kids! Some things I do in my free time include reading, playing sports, and knitting.

My name is Jennah! I am very friendly and easygoing. I like to be stern when needed. I enjoy creating schedules for the day, but if there is one in place as well, I am ready to follow it! :) I love working with young children and joining them on exploring their creativity. I love to cook simple meals and incorporating new things for them to try. I can help with all homework up to high school level. I have worked with multiple kids before for several years. I have a car and can perform all household duties/functions if needed! I currently do not have my own cleaning supplies to bring, but I will in a few months. If I am working with pets that require walking, I have worked with large dogs and am good to handle them on walks.

Hello there 👋🏻 I'm Kimberly I’m studying Disability and Human Development at UIC. I offer child care, senior care, and household help. I’ve been caring for kids of all ages and seniors, including those with Alzheimer’s and dementia, for over 10 years. I enjoy creating a safe and fun environment for kids with crafts, games, and storytime. I’ve also helped with schoolwork through my internship at Chicago HOPES for Kids. In addition to babysitting, I can help with cooking, cleaning, and errands. I’m available for occasional babysitting, including last-minute needs!

Hi.My name is Stefany, I am 31 years old, currently residing in the northwest side of Chicago. I’m currently looking for few part time morning/evenings or overnight weekend stays. Whether it’s to step out and run to get errands done, dinner with a friend, a date night with your spouse, you name it. I’m here to help! I have experience with kids as long as I can remember. Babysitting was second nature to us. Migrating from Guatemala , my mother’s specialty was babysitting but primarily teaching . However struggles came in the way , the language barrier being one of them provided me with my first job at 8 years old as a translator . . I not only was “working” but it served me as it helped me practice my second language but most importantly I found much meaning and value in my mothers work...I loved going, I was able to make friends with their kids , build relationships and left inspired . Along the way, I was blessed with having nephews and nieces. Nine now! Growing up as a tight-knit family we’re always around to help each other out. Fast forward to my late teen years into young adulthood I started taking babysitting gigs as side jobs. I enjoy not only watching after kids but being able to not only be a teacher to them but most importantly learn from children themselves . They carry much gifts and help remind us about the meaning of what life really is about I hope to be able to share this with you and your family. Look forward to meeting and working with you!
