Abigail $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable medical student who has grown up helping care for younger siblings and family members. I’ve always enjoyed spending time with children and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I’m comfortable with children from toddlers through teens and can help with playtime, homework, meals, routines, and keeping kids engaged. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and take following parents’ instructions and routines seriously. I’m currently looking for part-time, occasional, and date-night babysitting opportunities and would love the opportunity to support your family!

I am a prek sped teacher and willing to work with special needs children or many at once but price may increase for multiples not special needs special prices. However, I want to have clear expectations. I am ell certified and almost a learning behavior specialist. I love art outdoors science and sports! I love to teach through hands on methods and do not raise my voice to children unless an emergency. If this happens, I’ll explain why to the child and tell you. I’m comfortable with many little ones. Thanks!

Only able to work with families who are potentially open to me bringing my daughter, who was born on March 20, 2026, with me. Hello Families! My name is Kasia and I am a fun, loving, caring, responsible, and reliable professional educator. While working with children I like to create a warm, safe, and welcoming environment in which the children are able to express themselves freely. I allow them to choose activities and build on their interests in order to challenge them; while also keeping activities age and developmentally appropriate. I strive to support the development of each individual child, and build a partnership with parents to support their wants, needs, and values. I look forward to meeting your family and creating a long lasting relationship with your children!

Hello! My name is Joanna ! I am 28 years old with a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. I have been babysitting since I was about 13 years old for teachers from my elementary school to my high school teachers. I have always been interested in children which is why I persuaded my degree and currently a second grade teacher within CPS! I love spending time with children and seeing them smile! Making them smile and me being the reason makes me happy.

"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!"
