Hi! I am Sydne! I just moved to Chicago with my sister after graduating from the University of Arizona this past year! I am beginning work at Lurie Children’s Hospital as a Registered Nurse this fall! I have been a sitter/ nanny for the last 7 years and keep doing it because I love spending time with kids and helping them grow into kind & inquisitive individuals. I am excited to meet new families and kids in the Chicago area!
Hello, Thank you for reading my profile. I am a newly retired Educator with significant experience teaching and working with elementary school children. In recent years I have taught kindergarten and worked with children who have a variety of needs, temperaments, and talents. I am thoughtful, caring, and conscientious, and will provide a high quality of care. I am also a parent and have had the pleasure of raising a child from infancy to adulthood. My goal is to provide a safe, informed, joyful experience for your child.
I am an ER Physician Assistant waiting to begin my job in April/May! I love kiddos and am looking to help families out while supplementing my income before beginning my career. My previous experience includes babysitting, working with children and adults with developmental disabilities, and working in a pediatric hospital. I spent 4 years as an ER tech at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, OH which is a Level 1 trauma center so I am very informed on safety, illness prevention, and complex medical conditions. I have experience with infants 0 days old all the way up to 18 year olds. I absolutely adore younger kids and babysitting opportunities so I can have fun doing crafts and playing outside! I grew up in Denver, CO and love the outdoors and really enjoy taking kiddos outside when possible and away from their tablets. I also grew up with cats and currently have two so I am very comfortable with them. I also love dogs and have experience dog sitting.
“Super fast response and short notice acceptance - greatly appreciated! Morgan was great with our almost 4 year old son. Would absolutely hire again!”
Hi-my name is Arianna and I’m a Chicago native! I’ve been working in childcare since I was an early teenager, from volunteer work to nannying in recent years. I have experience from neonatal care all the way to school age children, but have a soft spot for infants. As a medical assistant, I’m trained and certified in BLS and CPR and have a vast knowledge on medical conditions and treatments. I can administer medications and provide wound care when medically indicated. I’m also available for household errands and have my own car and have never been in an accident. I’m more than flexible to help meet your needs!
Hi! My name is Becca :) I recently graduated with my Master of Social Work and am looking for part-time or short-term babysitting gigs while I search for my full-time job. I have 10 years of paid child-care experience- everything from date-night babysitting to full-time and summer nannying to working as a camp counselor. I also have worked with children and families in a therapeutic capacity as a social work intern. I have the most experience with the 0-5 age range. I love reading books, coloring, doing puzzles, and going for walks! I am CPR/First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, have access to reliable transportation, and am happy to provide references as requested. Excited to hopefully connect!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
"Hannah was awesome. Went above & beyond to help me with a last minute emergency. She was really sweet & great with my 16mo old. Highly recommend!!"
