Celestine $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Celestine. I am looking for babysitting jobs while I am home from college until mid January. I grew up with my mom running an in-home daycare and I have cared for the many toddlers and children in my family, so I have lots of experience and love for children! I also have experience caring for pets. I am enthusiastic, dependable, caring, and responsible. In addition to caring for children, I am happy to complete household responsibilities, pet care, rides to/from activities, and help with errands. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

Brianda $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m a bilingual, Spanish-speaking individual with over six years of experience in the healthcare field, specifically in chiropractic care, and I have a strong passion for working with children. I hold an Associate’s degree in Science and am currently pursuing further education. Although I haven’t worked as a professional caregiver, I’ve had the joy of caring for children in my family and among friends, ranging from ages 1 and older and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and always eager to help others. My faith is a cornerstone of my life, and I’m actively involved in my church’s youth group. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going on walks, exploring new coffee shops, and experimenting with cooking and baking. I love trying new things and creating meaningful, positive connections with those I care for.

Hi! My name is Krystyna. I have taken care of infants and toddlers for the past 13 years. I have been nannying for many families and have taken care of their little ones since they were infants. I do my best to keep them busy by taking them to museums, parks, libraries, classes and the zoo. I also worked for two baseball seasons for the Chicago White Sox. I’ve nannied in New Orleans, Dallas, and New York. I’m a certified Nurse Assistant and CPR certified. I have my own car so transportation isn't a problem. I’m available for part-time, last minute backup care and occasional sitting. Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you have. Hope to hear from you!

“Krystyna was absolutely wonderful with our 9-month-old daughter, Anna! From the moment she arrived, she was professional, kind, and put us at ease. Anna took to her right away, and as we were leaving, we could already hear squeals of joy, always a great sign! It was clear that Krystyna knows how to engage with little ones, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Anna was in great hands. We’ll definitely be asking her to come back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic babysitter.”

Hi, I'm Chloe! I'm an experienced nanny and babysitter, and I've been working with kids since I was one myself! I started babysitting when I was 11, and basically haven't stopped since then. I've been a nanny, worked in a day care, been a mother's helper, a tutor, and provided almost every other child care service. I'm new to Chicago, but was working in Denver for the last 12 years. Babies and toddlers are my absolute favorite, but I love kids of all ages. I have experience with kids as young as one week and as old as 16 years, and have worked with siblings and groups of up to 26 kids! I have a gift for dissolving sibling conflict and dealing with tears and tantrums. I am affectionate, reliable, creative, and flexible. I am a student at SAIC looking for work around my class schedule, with a long career behind me already, and can't wait to care for your kids!

“She was friendly and sweet. Will call her again ”
