Find an emergency babysitter in River Forest, IL

Hi! My name is Lilah. I am a certified Direct Support Professional, and am also certified in CPR, First Aid, AED, and Safety Care. I spent the last year and half working professionally with people of all ages who have Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. I am well equipped with the skills to handle anything that goes on in a relaxed or wild household! I am a laid-back and creative person who has always loved working with and getting to know kids. I was a babysitter for 4 years and worked with kids of all ages- which I absolutely loved. I am a big animal person as well, and am not afraid of any messes. I actually really like to clean! I would be happy to care for kids of any ages, cats or dogs, or assist with any errands or household tasks.

Hi! I’m Tiana, a dependable and caring babysitter who brings a fun, calm energy to childcare. I love keeping kids engaged through creative activities like arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, while always prioritizing safety and structure. I’m patient, attentive, and great at following routines like homework time, meals, and bedtime. I have experience working with children ages 4-10 due to mentorship programs. I also come from a large family, having six siblings, so I am capable of watching numerous children at once. Outside of caretaking, I am currently a college student getting a BFA. I also have work experience in public event management, catering to a wide age range. I aim to make every event accessible and inclusive to all.

Hi! My name is Lauren, and I have a Master’s degree in Psychological Science from Tulane University. I’m currently pursuing my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, with the goal of working with children and families. My education has given me a strong understanding of child development, emotional well-being, and creating supportive, engaging environments for kids of all ages. I’ve worked with children in a variety of settings, including as a STEM Lab Leader and Literacy Tutor at GiGi’s Playhouse, where I support children with diverse learning and developmental needs. I’ve also provided one-on-one childcare for children with special needs, tailoring activities to each child’s strengths and interests while ensuring they feel safe, understood, and encouraged. Beyond my professional experience, I’ve volunteered with organizations that support children through education, mentorship, and enrichment programs. Families describe me as dependable, patient, organized, and genuinely caring. I love planning fun, screen-free activities like crafts, games, reading, outdoor play, and creative projects while always prioritizing each child’s safety and well-being. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your child, and I strive to create a positive, nurturing environment where children can have fun, learn, and feel comfortable. I look forward to getting to know your family!
