Casey $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Riverside, IL

Growing up in an in-home daycare run by my mom, caring for children is one of the things I know best--I have over ten years of professional experience working as a daycare teacher, babysitter, and nanny. Past work has included caring for 1-5 kids at a time, at a range of ages from infant to school-aged. I specifically love getting to know kids for all of their quirks and personalities, helping them learn and grow, and doing all I can to ensure that we have a full, fun day together. A little about me personally: I am from originally from the Nashville area and moved to Chicago to pursue a career in the performing arts, which I do primarily now alongside childcare. Besides performing and caring for kids, I enjoy reading, exploring the city, and spending time with friends. I look forward to meeting and connecting with you soon!

$15 per hour for 1 child

I have a good experience with child care I have been a babysitter for 2 years. and above all because I love working with children, it is something that I am passionate about. I have been with needy children as a volunteer and I have done everything with love. I think that love and commitment to children is a reason that makes me a good babysitter . I would also like to mention a little about my responsibilities I have taken care of children from 1 years old to 12 years old. It is also important to mention that I am a responsible girl and that I know how to manage my emotions. Most people say that I am very loving and that everything I do is with love. I want you to know that I am a good babysitter because your children will always be well taken care of by me and I really know the value of family , I would like them to learn a lot from you. I am available every weekend at any time if you contact me beforehand and during the week from 11-2

“Alison is an exceptional caregiver. She demonstrates excellent responsiveness when planning and punctuality. She proactively asked me about my son‘s interest. With this information, she engaged my son and his favorite activities rather than Screen Time. Alison is highly intelligent and takes pride and her work. It is clear that she loves kids. My son thoroughly enjoyed his time with her and I highly recommend her to anyone.”

Ruby $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my names Ruby, I used to babysit a lot in high school before I moved and thought it was so fun! I mostly worked with two kids aged 2 and 4, and babysat them for almost a year. I’m a first year college student so babysitting is a great way for me to make money while still having time to focus on school work. I’m also an artist although I’m still working towards making a living off that. But if your kids enjoy to draw I’ll probably end up teaching them a thing or two too!
