Hello! My name is Mariah , a former high school English teacher and current dean. I love my job especially working with students. I hope to help you with your children and I can't wait to connect with you! I have my own transportation, am CPR certified and ready to work!
I am a current grad student at UIC in the physical therapy program! I’ve completed my bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science at Illinois State University in May 2024. I worked as a caregiver for 2 summers in a row during my undergrad at a memory care assisted living facility in Elmhurst, IL. I also worked as a rehab tech at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab Pediatric Outpatient clinic in Glenview, IL from May 2024-July 2025. I have a passion for helping and caring for people in any capacity. I’m also experienced in childcare from babysitting my nieces/nephews when called to help my family!
Hi! As someone with almost two years of teaching and caretaking experience, I'm passionate about giving children a safe, fun environment to learn and grow. More about me: - I moved to Chicago from California this year for my job (I am a UX copywriter!) - I love cooking (currently learning a new recipe from my mom on FaceTime each week) - I have always loved working with kids and plan to go back to school for a degree in education (hopefully in the next decade) I would love to chat about how I can best help you! Ask me about any of the following experiences: 6 months: Teacher's Aide to a kindergarten summer camp 1 year: Tutor at after-school center 4 months: Manager at after-school center
Hi! My name is Kara and I'm currently a sophomore at UIC studying theatre. I am offering childcare, cat sitting, and household services. I've always loved babysitting and have been watching infants, toddlers, and kids since I was fourteen (I have a really big family with lots of younger cousins who I've helped out with all my life), as well as worked at a daycare where I took care of children ages infant to five years old. Due to my theatre background I regularly include make believe play in my interactions with children, using different voices and mannerisms while asking the children questions and helping to build their imaginative skills. On top of that I've also been certified by the Red Cross in infant and regular CPR. I can also work as a household assistant and can clean and run errands. As I have my own cat I am more than comfortable with cat sitting and have done so for multiple family friends.
Hi, my name is Oskar! I’m 25 years old and looking for a consistent babysitting position with a great family. While I don’t have formal childcare job experience, I’ve grown up around lots of younger cousins and am very comfortable caring for kids in a hands-on, responsible way. I’m dependable, patient, and fun to be around, and I always prioritize safety and structure. I’m most comfortable with potty-trained children and enjoy keeping kids engaged with activities, games, and routines that make them feel secure and happy. I’m also very comfortable with pets. I regularly dog-sit for a friend, so furry family members are never a problem! I’m looking for something consistent where I can build trust with a family and become someone both parents and kids can rely on.
