Hi! My name is Emily. I'm a 4th year medical student looking to connect with my community and offset some of medical school's high costs. I am offering child care, dog care, and household services. During my training I have cared for pediatric patients in both acute (emergency), inpatient, and clinic settings. I love working with kids and am currently interviewing with pediatric residency programs! I am BLS certified for infants, children, and adults. I have experience babysitting for children between 2 months and 12 years. I believe it's my duty as a caregiver to help create a safe and magical world for children to explore. When babysitting I love taking the kids to explore outside, reading books, and making up any wacky games I can think of! I am a dog owner and feel comfortable caring for most dogs. I have a car and am happy to do any appointment/activity drop off, grocery shopping, cooking, or cleaning needed in the household.
Hello! I am Maya! I am currently a sophomore at NEIU (Northeastern Illinois University). Currently I am offering child and animal care. I work at the Child Care Center at my college ! I work with 1-5 years olds. I’m a very caring and loving person. I have experience taking care of many children. I also used to be a lifeguard so I am trained in CPR and first aid! I love to cook and bake many things. I have one dog named Felix. I love to explore around Chicago and go on new adventures. I love doing art crafts as well. I used to be in the art program in my high school. I’m a very goal oriented girl!
Hello there 👋🏻 I'm Kimberly I’m studying Disability and Human Development at UIC. I offer child care, senior care, and household help. I’ve been caring for kids of all ages and seniors, including those with Alzheimer’s and dementia, for over 10 years. I enjoy creating a safe and fun environment for kids with crafts, games, and storytime. I’ve also helped with schoolwork through my internship at Chicago HOPES for Kids. In addition to babysitting, I can help with cooking, cleaning, and errands. I’m available for occasional babysitting, including last-minute needs!
I am a very extraverted, fun, loving, caring, welcoming, outgoing, and faith filled mother of 5 children. I have 29 years of experience in taking care of kids. I currently am taking care of a 5 year old boy and have been taking care of him since he was 2. I spend time playing with him, singing with him, making crafts with him, and make sure the time he spends with me is a fun one! I personally potty trained him, and my current responsibilities are to feed, clothe, and bathe him. I have taken him with me to do outdoor activities and can keep a very watchful eye on kids. Before taking care of him I watched two other young boys from a married couple. I kept them very preoccupied with various activities. I was responsible for feeding them breakfast and lunch, as well as making sure to clothe them and making sure they went to the bathroom. Before I left the house I kept it very clean. I have a wide variety of cooking skills which makes it easier on parents to have their kids eat what they would like them to eat. If you're looking for someone to clean your home I am a very thorough cleaner. I am open to watching any small pets since I use to own a Cocker Spaniel Poodle and a cat. I am open to watching anyone that is elderly and perform basic tasks. I am willing to open up my home for watching anyone as well as travel to your home. Whatever is most convenient. If your looking for a mother's touch, that is definitely me.
I have around 10 years of nanny experience, caring for children ranging from infants to pre-teens.

"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
