Maggie $25 per hour for 1 child

Family has always been incredibly important to me. I am one of seven children and therefore grew up in a household managing a lot of different ages, experiences, and emotions. I have nannied and babysat consistently since I was 18. My experience has solidified my desire to continue to help families. Additionally, I have my bachelors degree from Marquette University in accounting and finance. I also am a CPA. I currently work as an auditor at Deloitte. I am comfortable caring for up to four children. I am patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and always follow parents' preferred communication methods regarding their child's day. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. More than anything, I look forward to creating a fun and enriching environment for your children.

Booked by 1 family in Oak Park, IL

I am a sophomore in college at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. I have years of experience working with all ages. My younger sister is 13 years my junior and I have cared for her since she was born. I was a youth leader with the Neighborhood Boys and Girls Clubs in Chicago and a camp counselor and daycare worker with JCYS. I have been a full time summer nanny for a family with two children under the ages of 6 for the past two years. I have babysit for around 20 families throughout my babysitting career! I am looking for babysitting jobs in Cleveland during the school year and Chicago during Holidays and summers.

“Ava is a wonderful babysitter. She kept my daughter active, having fun and learning while doing things! My daughter LOVES Ava and gets so excited when she is babysitting. I recommend Ava without hesitation. You and your kiddos will love her.”

Hi! My name is Lilah. I am a certified Direct Support Professional, and am also certified in CPR, First Aid, AED, and Safety Care. I spent the last year and half working professionally with people of all ages who have Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. I am well equipped with the skills to handle anything that goes on in a relaxed or wild household! I am a laid-back and creative person who has always loved working with and getting to know kids. I was a babysitter for 4 years and worked with kids of all ages- which I absolutely loved. I am a big animal person as well, and am not afraid of any messes. I actually really like to clean! I would be happy to care for kids of any ages, cats or dogs, or assist with any errands or household tasks.
