Lizbeth $20 per hour for 1 child
I am a patient, loving person who enjoys creating connections with the children I care for. I love being a part of their growth and fostering their autonomy and independence. I have over three years of experience caring for children of all ages, particularly with infants and toddlers, as well as certifications in First Aid and CPR. My skills range from meal preparation to sleep strategies. Being bilingual, I enjoy speaking with them in both Spanish and English while doing arts and crafts, playing, and learning together.
Brittany $23 per hour for 1 child
I have been a pediatric speech language pathologist for 14 years. Prior to beginning my career, I had extensive baby-sitting experience. I will provide care for my nephews and niece regularly. I have extensive experience working with children with special needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder. In addition to providing speech and language services, I am also a feeding therapist. I am CPR-certified. I am just looking to do some work slightly outside of my career-field.
Juliet $25 per hour for 1 child
I'm a fun, outgoing, and caring individual looking for part-time, flexible hours! I have a lot of experience with babies, toddlers, and elementary-age kids. When I'm not babysitting, I'm an actor around Chicago and teach theatre to kids ages 1-14, as a visiting teaching artist in preschools, elementary schools, and in special ed cluster classrooms. I have years of experience working with kids on the autism spectrum and pride myself on seeing all kids as whole, autonomous people. I love pets, arts and crafts, reading, and singing and dancing!
