Coming from a family with 6 children, and me bring the second oldest I’m already familiar with lots of children around me. Also I am a mother myself now and that also makes me love being around children too. I used to work as a babysitter for some lovely families. Now I have a part time office job, very flexible and u could use some extra work.

Nadiia Park Ridge
$19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nadiia and I am a mom of a 5-year-old boy. I have real experience taking care of children every day as a parent, and I understand how important it is to keep kids safe, happy, and busy. In the past, I also helped take care of my grandmother, so I am very patient and responsible. I love animals, so pets are never a problem. I am looking for part-time morning jobs where I can help families with babysitting, light play, meals, or just making sure your child feels comfortable and cared for. Parents describe me as kind, caring, and reliable. I would be happy to meet your family!

Booked by 1 family in Niles, IL

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.

I am a responsible and caring nanny. Spanish is my native language, and I understand English very well. I am currently improving my English speaking skills to become more fluent. I am patient, reliable, and committed to my work. I enjoy planning fun and educational activities for children, including creative and hands-on play, not only technology-based activities. I also love pets and feel comfortable in homes with animals. I like to follow parents instructions and routines carefully, while also being proactive and suggesting positive ideas and activities for the kids. I enjoy seeing them learning, grow and the capacity to discover new things. I like to support their creativity providing a safe, caring and positive environment, where they can feel happy, confident and comfortable. One thing families should know about me is that I am respectful and I can be serious when needed, but I am also very sweet, caring, and enjoy connecting with children.
