I have 13 years experience in childcare, from babysitting/nannying, being a youth programs/summer camp staff, to currently working in a preschool. I love making kids happy and doing what ever they want to do!
Hello! My name is Audrey and I am a licensed OT currently working in schools. I am looking for additional hours outside of work and to save some money. I’d love to help out you and your family! I have worked with children since I was a teenager, babysitting kids in the neighborhood and helping raise my younger brother with autism spectrum disorder. In high school, I nannied for two families for years. Their children ranged from 2-10 years old. Since living in Chicago (2020) I’ve worked with two families very closely to help their 5 month old babies in those early developmental stages. I am confident in working with children of all ages and abilities. As a school based OT, I work with students ages 2-22 years old. I enjoy providing experiences outside, crafting, art projects, sensory play, imaginary play, going for walks, and more. I am confident in my abilities and have a lot to offer to your family. I am vaccinated and boosted. I also have a car. I usually get home around 5 pm on week days, my weekends are usually free. Please contact me if you have any further questions. Have a great day!!! ~ Audrey
“We love Audrey! She is so attentive and patient with our 11-month-old and has been taking care of him for a few months now. We highly recommend booking with her if she is available!”
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.
Hello! My name is Mary Kate, and I would love to be your next babysitter. I have experience working with school-aged children as both a camp counselor and a tutor, so I prioritize creating an environment that balances learning and fun. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and as a creative person, I love incorporating art, imagination, and hands-on activities into playtime. I recently graduated from the University of Michigan and am currently taking a gap year before attending graduate school. During this time, I’m working full-time as a Student Success Coach with AmeriCorps and am especially interested in supporting families on weekends. I’m easygoing, reliable, and flexible, and I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your family!
Hi! My name is Becca :) I recently graduated with my Master of Social Work and am looking for part-time or short-term babysitting gigs while I search for my full-time job. I have 10 years of paid child-care experience- everything from date-night babysitting to full-time and summer nannying to working as a camp counselor. I also have worked with children and families in a therapeutic capacity as a social work intern. I have the most experience with the 0-5 age range. I love reading books, coloring, doing puzzles, and going for walks! I am CPR/First Aid certified, comfortable with pets, have access to reliable transportation, and am happy to provide references as requested. Excited to hopefully connect!
