Hi there - I'm Lisa! I have over 5 years of babysitting experience. I've worked with families in the Chicago area and I also used to work at a daycare in Beverly Hills. I’m extremely empathetic, playful, alert, and responsible. Most of my experiences are with children ages 2-13. I graduated from ISU with a BA in Theatre and I am also an SLP at a pediatric clinic. I’m happy to assist with cooking, homework, laundry, and other tasks. I truly love playing and being silly! Some personal hobbies include yoga, cycling, and writing. I love babysitting because of the joy it brings me - kids have the greatest perspective on just about everything. I am available for weekends. I hope to meet you and your family soon!

I am a 28 year-old kids ski instructor and have just completed my 3rd year of instructing. I am down in Sonoma County for my 6th wine harvest. I have been babysitting since I was about 16, and had been a long term nanny twice. I am happy to provide references if you would like to learn more about the high-quality, fun and engaging care I provide. In my free time, I love to spend time outside skiing, hiking, camping, or at the beach. I teach kids 3-12 daily, but have babysat an nannied infants through teens. I am excited to meet you and your family, and to be a positive role model in your children's lives! I also am a pet sitter part-time if you are ever interested in pet care as well.
“Grace is communicative, responsible and patient. ”
I’m a caring and dependable babysitter with 7 years of experience looking after children of all ages. Along with professional experience, I regularly babysit my nieces and nephews, which includes school pick-ups, homework help, and fun activities like going to the park or doing creative projects together. I love keeping kids engaged, active, and safe while also following each family’s routines and expectations. Families describe me as reliable, patient, and easy to connect with, and I always bring a positive attitude into the home. In addition to childcare, I also have experience fostering cats and volunteering at an animal shelter, so I’m comfortable with pets too. Whether it’s after-school care, evenings, or weekends, I’m flexible to meet your family’s needs. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel cared for and parents have peace of mind.
My name is Natalie, a bilingual (English and French and learning Spanish) Windsor High senior with over six years of childcare experience mentored by my nanny’s who are 30-year industry veteran. Caring for others is a gift of mine I have had since a young age! My experience in student government, serving on a school board and more makes me wise beyond my years and very responsible. As an active figure skater and dancer, I have plenty of energy to foster an environment that prioritizes outdoor play, fun quality engagement and creative crafts, though I am equally patient and calm when caring for infants and any child that needs it. I am a licensed driver and capable cook, happy to assist with school pickups, errands, and meal prep as well. As a lifelong pet owner, I have extensive experience with house and dog sitting, ensuring your furry friends and home are perfectly cared for. I also provide compassionate, non-medical senior care and am a dedicated, mature professional ready to support your household before I head to college this fall.
