Ava Forest Park
$15 per hour for 1 child

I am a second-year medical student at Loyola with a background in neuroscience and I am looking to help families, offering child and senior care. I have experience as a caregiver for my grandmother and for my autistic brother. I have also worked as a math tutor, so I am happy to help with tutoring or errands like driving to/from school and appointments. Ideally, I am hoping to house-sit and have time to study for my own school work alongside helping kids with their homework. I am allergic to animal dander, but I am a huge animal lover nevertheless! Other fun facts about me: I play the flute and piano, I used to play soccer and now rock climb, and I volunteer at the Field Museum!

Amber Berkeley
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Amber, and I am currently a college student working on her pre-nursing requirements and finishing an environmental science degree while maintaining a 3.48 GPA. I mention this only to say, yes. I can help with that pesky homework question. I have enjoyed providing a safe and friendly environment for toddlers to adults since middle school. I enjoy doing arts and crafts as well as losing at games and playing catch. I can provide light housekeeping with supplies provided and basic, healthy meals. I am certified in CPR as a licensed EMT-Basic and am pet-friendly and a non-smoker.

$19 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Addison, IL

Hi I’m Bella! I am an early childhood education, major with a special letter of approval for special education at Illinois State University, but I am originally from Elmwood Park. I’m able to come home some weekends and will be home all summer! I have a big passion for working with kids and have lots of experience, especially caring for my cousins and family friends. I have worked at a summer camp for four years as well as one year 1on1 with special needs kids. Currently, I work at a Child Development Lab out at school. My experience has taught me to engage with kids with different interests, ages, and developmental challenges. I enjoy spending time with all and would love to be a helping hand to your family!

Bella was absolutely wonderful! She was available last minute, punctual, and so kind. This was my first time leaving my baby boy with a babysitter, so I was definitely a little nervous, but Bella made the whole experience so easy and comfortable. I absolutely loved her and will definitely be asking for her again in the future! Highly recommend!
