Booked by 1 family in Riverside, IL

I am fun loving of all kids and pets. With my own daughter I learned a lot about growing children and how to teach and help them grow into the best part of themselves. I also know what it means for parents to have a break, and can easily make sure to give you the peace of mind needed when taking a much needed break.

Michelle $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Michelle, a responsible and dependable college student who enjoys working with children. My childcare experience comes from helping care for my younger brother and babysitting for family friends, where I’ve learned the importance of creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I graduated as my high school’s valedictorian and am happy to help with homework and learning activities. I’m also involved with Northwestern University’s Supplies for Dreams, an organization that supports Chicago Public Schools through school supply drives, field trips, and one-on-one student mentorship. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or sticking to your family’s routine, I’ll make sure your children are well cared for and engaged.

Leilani $20 per hour for 1 child

Each child is a unique gift, and as a doula and aspiring youth pastor, I feel called to support them in their growth and development. I'm looking for babysitting and nannying opportunities where I can provide nurturing, reliable care while creating a safe space for children to learn, play, and thrive. I have experience working with children ages 2 months to 12 years old and love engaging kids through creative activities, homework help, outdoor play, and more. I'm available for both regular care and occasional sitting and bring patience, enthusiasm, and a genuine commitment to supporting both children and their families.

Freddie $18 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a freshman at Elmhurst University in Illinois, and play for the volleyball team. I am studying marketing. I grew up in Las Vegas and attend Bishop Gorman High School. I come to Vegas during school breaks and work there as well as in Elmhurst. My older sister has two kids that I have been helping with since I was 11. They are now the ages of 7 and 1. I drive now so I take them to their extracurricular activities and entertain them with fun activities including crocheting, knitting, painting, coloring, playing outside, as well as cooking. I am super comfortable helping with running errands and cleaning around the house. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs so working with animals is no problem! I love playing with animals as well as taking them out for walks!

Hello! My name is Olivia. I am a 30 year old Special Education teacher. I am looking for a family who needs an occasional sitter on evenings, weekends or in the summer (date night, last minute, etc). I have worked with children of all ages, abilities & have cared for 3+ children at a time. I genuinely love kids- helping them, teaching them, building healthy relationships, going on adventures & being out in nature. In my free time, I spend time with family, friends & my dogs. I am very comfortable working with families who have pets as well! I am flexible, dependable & trustworthy.
