Hi families! My name is Clarissa and I'm an experienced kindergarten & preschool teacher in the western suburbs. I'm patient, reliable, and nurturing and dedicated to creating fun, safe environments for kids. I'm also bilingual and have a dog named Meatball. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services.
Hello there! I'm Camila, a 27 year-old passionate about childcare and babysitting. With over 6 years of experience working with babies and toddlers here in America, I've developed a deep love for spending time with little ones and nurturing their development. In addition to childcare, I'm also happy to lend a hand with cooking, cleaning, or any other household chores that need to be taken care of. Being pet-friendly, I'm comfortable around dogs and cats. If you're in need of a responsible and caring childcare provider who will treat your little onesβand furry friendsβwith love and attention, I'd love to chat further. Let's create a safe and happy environment for your family together! Looking forward to hearing from you soon! Best, Camila

"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!!"
