Hi there! My name is Emily and I am originally from the Quad Cities but have been living in Chicago for the past 2.5 years after graduating from the University of Kansas. I have experience babysitting and part-time nannying children of all ages. During prior jobs I loved coming up with creative activities, going on neighborhood walks, and playing games in the park. I am also comfortable taking care of animals. I grew up with a dog and I have a cat of my own. In my free time I enjoy sailing on Lake Michigan, reading anything from thrillers to memoirs, and painting what ever is inspiring to me in the moment.

$15 per hour for 1 child

I have a good experience with child care I have been a babysitter for 2 years. and above all because I love working with children, it is something that I am passionate about. I have been with needy children as a volunteer and I have done everything with love. I think that love and commitment to children is a reason that makes me a good babysitter . I would also like to mention a little about my responsibilities I have taken care of children from 1 years old to 12 years old. It is also important to mention that I am a responsible girl and that I know how to manage my emotions. Most people say that I am very loving and that everything I do is with love. I want you to know that I am a good babysitter because your children will always be well taken care of by me and I really know the value of family , I would like them to learn a lot from you. I am available every weekend at any time if you contact me beforehand and during the week from 11-2

“Alison is an exceptional caregiver. She demonstrates excellent responsiveness when planning and punctuality. She proactively asked me about my son‘s interest. With this information, she engaged my son and his favorite activities rather than Screen Time. Alison is highly intelligent and takes pride and her work. It is clear that she loves kids. My son thoroughly enjoyed his time with her and I highly recommend her to anyone.”
