Hi all! My name is Maggie, I was born and raised in Louisville. I just moved to Chicago from London, England where I studied to get my Master’s degree in Education Policy. Prior, I received my BA from Tulane University in New Orleans. I have worked for 3 years full time in Special Education at various age levels! I love the wonder that kids bring to the world and love creating exciting experiences for them! I love being able to be creative as a babysitter and come up with fun activities to do. I am happy to play, bake, do arts & crafts, etc. I do have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and available references. I am infant and child CPR/first aid certified as well as COVID vaccinated. I am completely comfortable with pets! I have vast experiences with children ages newborn-13yrs. I was first certified as a babysitter at 12 and have been working with kids ever since! I was a babysitter/nanny all throughout middle and high school, coached kids sports as a teenager, and spent the past year working in an elementary school environment! I spent 2 years working at a nonprofit that focused on arts education for ages 4-13 in New Orleans during college before spending 2 years in K-12 Special Education. I now work full time at a community college running their Special Education Transition program. My availability predominantly consists of evenings and the weekends, with specific dates typically reflected in my calendar. Please always feel free to reach out with any questions!
Hi! I'm Nya, I’m a sophomore in college. My passion for nurturing young minds led me to offer professional babysitting services. With regard to age groups, I have extensive experience with various developmental stages, ranging from early childhood to pre-adolescence. Whether it's fostering creativity with toddlers, or navigating the energetic world of elementary schoolers, I adapt my approach to suit each child's unique needs. When it comes to activities, I love sparking imagination through storytelling, crafting, and outdoor and indoor adventures. Additionally, my background in tutoring equips me to provide homework assistance and academic support.

I have a passion for traveling, reading, and trying new foods. I’ve always loved working with children and have years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, school-age kids, teens, and children with varying abilities. My background includes working closely with children with disabilities, and I pride myself on creating a nurturing, inclusive environment for every child. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to assist with household tasks such as cleaning, cooking, and running errands to help make your life a little easier. I’m excited about the opportunity to provide dependable and compassionate care for your family!

"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!"
