Mariah $15 per hour for 1 child

With over 10 years experience nurturing kids from newborns to teens, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional support to both your children and your family. I bring fun, creativity, and a sprinkle of imagination to every babysitting gig while ensuring parents feel secure knowing their little ones are in caring hands. With a Master's in Social Work and a career dedicated to empowering seniors, I am equipped me with exceptional communication skills, allowing me to connect with children on their level while fostering a safe and engaging environment. Whether it's organizing fun activities or providing emotional support during difficult moments, I thrive on creating positive experiences for every child in my care. I am eager to broaden my day-to-day experiences by returning to my roots of working with kids. Being active and engaged is essential when caring for children. Whether it's organizing outdoor games or crafting creative projects indoors, I always strive to keep kids entertained while nurturing their creativity. My strong communication skills allow me to build trusting relationships with both children and parents alike, ensuring open lines of dialogue about any concerns or updates. I pride myself on being punctual and responsible. My patience and creativity allow me to tackle challenges with a positive attitude. I have experience with caring for up to 8 kids at once. I thrive in busy settings where I can make a positive impact on young lives. I have successfully managed bedtime routines, meal preparation, homework assistance, responding to atypical physical and intellectual abilities, transporting to and from activities, and while maintaining a fun and active atmosphere. My ability to communicate effectively with both children and parents has always been a cornerstone of my approach—fostering trust and ensuring everyone feels heard. I would love the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your family's needs and how I can contribute positively as your babysitter.

Booked by 1 family in Berwyn, 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.

Michelle $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Michelle, a responsible and dependable college student who enjoys working with children. My childcare experience comes from helping care for my younger brother and babysitting for family friends, where I’ve learned the importance of creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I graduated as my high school’s valedictorian and am happy to help with homework and learning activities. I’m also involved with Northwestern University’s Supplies for Dreams, an organization that supports Chicago Public Schools through school supply drives, field trips, and one-on-one student mentorship. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or sticking to your family’s routine, I’ll make sure your children are well cared for and engaged.

Jeimy $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm a passionate and experienced nanny who loves bringing joy and creativity to every day. With over 5 years of experience and glowing references, I'm skilled at making each moment special—whether it's crafting, painting, reading, or having a spontaneous dance party indoors. If your little one loves the outdoors, I'm equally excited to explore parks, visit libraries, or just enjoy some fresh air together. Currently working a 9-5 job, but I miss the magic of nannying and would love to bring my enthusiasm and flexible schedule to your family. Let's keep your child happy, engaged, and having fun!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
