Hi families! I’m Jada! I’m currently a nanny in Plainfield and looking to connect with families who need occasional babysitting, date-night care, or just some extra help here and there! (Not seeking recurring jobs.) I have 8 years of professional childcare experience working with children from newborns through school age, including several years as a lead teacher. I also have my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Studies and am CPR/First Aid certified. I’d describe myself as bubbly, patient, dependable, and very hands on. I love getting the kids out of the house, going on walks, reading, doing crafts, playing outside, and finding fun things to do based on their age and interests. I’m definitely more of a play based caregiver and prefer keeping kids engaged rather than relying on screens. Yes I dress up in costumes and play the board games with every kid I care for! About me: I enjoy reading, getting coffee, doing crafts, and spending time outdoors. I’d love to connect with some local families who are looking for a reliable sitter they can reach out to whenever they need an extra set of hands!
Hello! My name is Ingrid and I'm currently offering child care , as needed/available. I am 24 years old. I work as a paramedic for a fire department. I am someone who enjoys being busy and finding new hobbies/activities to do. In my free time, I go to the gym, cook, do puzzles, and watch movies. I grew up in a big family so I am used to being around many kids of all ages! I have experience with mainly caring for ages newborns-toddlers but am willing to work with all ages. I love working and being around kids, and doing tasks to stay busy with them. My communication with kids is strong and do my best to have a good eye to eye understanding with them. I do have my own car and am willing to drive to you, take the kids places , and run errands if need be. If you have pets it is not a problem and can assist with that as well; I am familiar in caring for dogs. I am CPR certified in all ages, and can assist with use of medications. If you have any questions about anything or would like to get to know me more , please feel free to reach out! Hope you can allow me to assist your family!
Hi, my name is Emily and I’m 20 I babysit alongside my serving job. And I take great pride in providing amazing childcare. I am the oldest of four kids. My mom actually decided to add the 4th one back in 2023 so I’ve been able to walk alongside her in the newborn/toddler age:) I love children and being intentional with our time such as doing crafts, going for walks/the park when the weather is nice or making learning fun. Naturally as an older sister, I have experience cooking, tiding up, helping with homework and driving kids to and from sports/school. I’ve also worked children’s ministries at church and provided childcare since I was 12 this ranged from nursery age to middle school age. minimal dog task can definitely be done as well!!

"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!"

"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."
