Hi, my name is Samia and I'm currently a student studying to become a nurse, with the goal of specializing in pediatric care. I am offering child care services. I have experience caring for children from ages 1 to 8 years old, including helping with feeding, dressing, playtime, reading, school drop-offs/pickups, and bedtime routines. I truly enjoy spending time with children, and I take pride in creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for them. My goal is always to support both the child's emotional and physical development while keeping things fun and age-appropriate. I am CPR certified and well-versed in safety procedures for children. In addition to caregiving, I'm comfortable with pets-I have a dog myself-and understand how important they are to a family. I also have practical skills in cooking, cleaning, and I'm happy to drive to appointments or run errands as needed. Thank you for considering me. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your little ones!
“Sam was able to help us out on short notice when we had a last minute cancellation of our child care, and she was great with the kids. We would definitely have her over again!”

Booked by 1 family in Western Springs, IL
Growing up my grandma owned a daycare and I would help her take care of kids and plan arts and crafts time for them. I also have recent experience over the past 2 summers of working at a stay away camp looking over multiple different age groups of kids over the age of 6 full time. After my first summer I was promoted to leader of my cabin group and have learned to keep things together, better my communication, and still keep kids happy! Pets wise, I have 3 cats and a dog so I know how to manage!

Hello, I have been working with children for many years and adore working with all children, especially, the terrible two's! I have cared for both of my elderly parents, and many pets through the years. I would like to work with many more.
Breanna $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Breanna. I currently work in childcare and have over 3 years of experience caring for children from infancy through school age. I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, play, and feel safe while their parents are away. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with everything from meals and bedtime routines to crafts, outdoor play, and keeping kids engaged throughout the day. My goal is always to create a fun, caring, and dependable environment where children feel happy and parents have peace of mind.
