Hi! My name is Nora, I’m 19 years old, and I have 3–5 years of experience in child care, pet care, and household help. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, including past experience as a nanny for a family with five children and working at Schaumburg Kasper, an after-school program where I helped lead group activities and assist with homework. I also have experience caring for my grandmother, which gave me a strong sense of patience, compassion, and responsibility in senior care. At home, I take care of three dogs and a cat, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all sizes and energy levels. I genuinely enjoy cooking, cleaning, and organizing—I find it rewarding to help families feel supported and stress-free. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to jump in wherever I’m needed!
Hi! My name is Jonathan, I am 22 years old, and I am a pediatric registered nurse. I have experience caring for children from newborns through 18 years old in both surgical transplant and general medicine settings. I love working with kids and also have personal experience babysitting my two nephews, from the time they were babies through their school-aged years. My responsibilities have included playing fun games, helping with homework, preparing meals, and keeping them safe and happy. Although I work full time with children as a nurse, I have four days off each week and would love to spend some of that time babysitting. I’m reliable, caring, and bring the same compassion I use in nursing to the families I work with.
Hi, My name is Alexandra! Caring for kids has always come naturally to me - I'm someone who genuinely loves providing calm, nurturing care and helping little ones feel safe, comfortable, and supported. I started working with kids in high school when I got to assist classes for kids ages 2-9 years at my dance studio. Since then, I've babysat for multiple families with children a variety of ages and spent two years working at a city daycare, caring for children from 6 months to 6 years old. Through that experience, I discovered that I especially love working with infants and toddlers and am drawn to the more nurturing side of caregiving. I studied psychology in college with the initial goal of becoming a teacher, and while my career path ultimately led elsewhere, my passion for caring for children has not left. I currently work full-time in a corporate setting, which has made me very reliable, organized, and communicative - qualities I would also bring to a caregiving role. Due to this schedule, I am mostly available on evenings and weekends, but can also provide some mother's helper care during the day and can be flexible! I am energetic, attentive, clean and responsible, and I take pride in being someone that parents can rely on and truly trust. I love supporting families and caring for children, and I'm grateful to be able to do meaningful work with little ones while helping out families before I have children of my own.
“We were lucky enough to have Alexandra as our neighbor and primary baby sitter when my children were in elementary school. She was incredibly engaged and always pulled together fun activities for them. I have two very different children and she was great at meeting both of their needs. Whether they were playing a game in the yard or doing a craft, they were always so excited to spend time with her! We as a family loved getting to know Alexandra. She is beyond genuine. She's kind, caring and extremely dependable. Our kids have aged out of needing a sitter but we stay in touch. I would highly recommend Alexandra to any family with infants up to grade school children. She is a wonderful babysitter!”
Hi! My name is Annika, I work as an Apparel Merchandise Manager at Cintas. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati in May 2025 with a Bachelors degree in Business. I was very involved on campus with Greek life & philanthropy organizations. I am offering child care, pet care, & household services. I love being a babysitter & spending time with kids! I’ve worked as a summer camp counselor & babysitter for multiple years for families of all ages. I have primarily worked with kids from 4-12 years old. My responsibilities have included driving kids to school or extra curricular activities, cooking, cleaning, & playing indoor or outdoor games. I love arts & crafts, playing board games, or going on walks! I have my own cat & have experience taking care & walking dogs while watching up to 3 children at once.
Hello, my name is Isabel. I currently work for Chicago Public Schools. I hold a paraprofesional position working with students in grade levels kinder to 8th. My past experience includes 10 plus years in all healthcare settings including homecare. I love animals and don't mind helping with light household duties. I look forward to helping where I am needed. Thank you
