Find infant babysitters in Lyons, IL

My passion for caring for others started at a young age through babysitting, where I learned how important it is to be patient, responsible, attentive, and supportive. Caring for children of different ages and personalities taught me how to stay calm, adapt to different situations, and make sure the people in my care always felt safe and comfortable. Those same qualities have carried with me into my career as an ICU nurse, where I now care for patients during some of their most challenging and vulnerable moments. Whether it’s providing hands-on care, offering reassurance, or staying calm in a critical situation, I truly enjoy being someone others can rely on. My experiences have shaped me into a compassionate, dependable, and adaptable caregiver, and I’m grateful to be in a profession where I can make a difference in people’s lives every day.

My name is Laurelai and I am a former speech-language pathologist with experience working clinically with ages 3-14 and experience babysitting all ages. I now work full-time in medical education/administration, and am looking for one-time or as-needed babysitting opportunities. I grew up with three much younger siblings so I have been around children my whole life! I have worked as a child caretaker in a church, a toddler room supervisor, a nanny, and I have been babysitting for many years. I am CPR/First Aid certified for all ages (infant-adult). I have intermediate sign language experience. I have worked with multiples (twins and triplets) and children with special needs including cerebral palsy and oppositional/defiant disorder. I have experience working with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. In college I minored in vocal performance because I love to sing! I also played violin for 10+ years. I love to play games, read books, visit parks, sing songs and have fun! I provide services throughout the city of Chicago. **At this time I am not available for school pick-ups/drop-offs or recurring positions. I am flexible on nights and weekends.

Hi, my name is Margarita, and I’m 29 years old. I’ve been babysitting for 13 years. Growing up in a large family as the third of seven children, I naturally developed a passion for helping care for my younger siblings. Over the years, I’ve gained experience babysitting both for my own family and for others. I’ve also worked in a kids' room at a gym, (happened for about 4 years) supervising children of all ages—sometimes up to 10 at once! I truly enjoy working with kids and love watching them grow and knowing I’ve contributed positively to their development. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m a proud mom to two little ones: a 5-year-old son named Ace and a 4-year-old daughter named Alaia. Also currently fostering a 1 year old baby girl who we are hoping to adopt soon! I also have 10 years of experience in housekeeping. For the past 4 years, I’ve been working full-time in the human resources department of a nonprofit organization, handling payroll.
