Hi! My name is Sydney. I am 22 years old and currently have a 2 year college degree and and now currently on my 3rd year of college! I am offering nannying / child care as well as house hold services. I love working with children.

I have remained passionate when it comes to working with children. My mother is a teacher, my step dad being a principal at an elementary school, and both my grandparents being teachers:). I have learned so much through them and alongside have a long experience of working with children. Starting young I babysat for family and friends as well as my younger siblings. I also nanny as well for families. I have been a lead pre school teacher for infants, toddlers, and elementary aged students. Lastly, I am currently a paraprofessional in an elementary school. I work with children who have special needs, or who may need more one on one support in the classroom. I treat my kids with so much love and care. My goals are making them feel seen, cared for, and truly loved and cared for. I enjoy taking care and helping children grow in a loving, energetic environment. Along the way with having fun! I can also work as a household assistant too. I can cook, clean and run errands! I am CPR certified and trained as well A little about me I love my family and friends. I enjoy traveling when I am able to, and remain active. I also am a bit artsy I enjoy painting, coloring and making crafts. I am also trying to learn how to sew currently.

Kayla Libertyville
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kayla, and I'm currently a union electrical apprentice that works full time and goes to school. I grew up and currently live in Libertyville with my fiancé and 3 cats. In my free time I love to ski and ride my motorcycle. I'm currently a part time nanny and am looking for other part time nanny work and or occasional babysitting gigs. **Fun babysitting is my specialty** I'm not a "turn the TV on and play on my phone" sitter. If your kids are playing a game or running around, I'm doing it with them, not just watching. I love spending time with kids and I can't wait to meet yours! :)
