I’m a patient, friendly, and dependable person who loves working with kids and pets. I’ve spent time in camps, classrooms, and special education settings, so I’m comfortable helping with all kinds of needs and personalities. I focus on creating a safe, positive space where kids feel supported, have fun, and can be themselves. I’m easy to work with, communicate well, and always bring a fun energy.
I'm in my first year of college I'm going for Nursing program in RVC, l speak Spanish and English, I have a little sister that I’ve take care of her since she born until the last year because I had to moved out (she's already 6),I think she's my biggest experience taking care of children. I love children, I enjoy playing games outside or table games with them, I'm a super patient person, I can cook, help with homework, even make some household chores, and I don't have any problems with pets.
Hi, I’m Azucena! I’m 18 and looking for a babysitting job! Helping, taking care of, and working along side children is a passion of mine. Im enrolled in college to become a middle/high school history teacher! I may not have a lot of experience but I do have experiences in lesson/activity planning, I’ve taken child care classes all throughout High school, I’ve babysat before, I’ve done school visits and would interact with students from the ages of 3-17. I can keep a child engaged and entertained, I can cook if needed, communication skills, lots of patience, problem solving, and lastly, I know how to have fun!
“Great personality ”
I’m a mom of three with over ten years of experience in childcare, caregiving, senior support, pet care, and household assistance. I previously owned and operated an in-home daycare, where I cared for children from infancy through school age, including children with developmental delays and sensory sensitivities. I focus on creating calm routines, engaging activities, and a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported and understood. I enjoy arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, sensory activities, and helping with homework or early learning. I’m comfortable preparing meals, maintaining schedules, and supporting busy family routines. In addition to my professional childcare experience, I bring extensive hands-on experience supporting children ages 0–12 with autism and developmental delays, which has strengthened my patience, adaptability, and understanding of individualized care. I’m currently pursuing a dual licensure degree in Special and Elementary Education, further supporting my passion for inclusive, people-centered care. I’ve also worked as a caregiver in a group home supporting men and women over age 50 with developmental and physical disabilities. My experience includes personal care, meals, medication reminders, companionship, and supervised community outings. I value dignity, consistency, and meaningful connection in senior care. I’m very comfortable with pets and household environments. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, have experience with fish and birds, and currently care for a bearded dragon. I’m comfortable with large pets, shedding animals, and following specific care instructions, and I’m open to learning care routines for other pets. I also provide light household support including cleaning, laundry, dishes, simple meal prep, errands, and organization, and can bring basic cleaning supplies if needed.
Hi! My name is Sarah I have been babysitting since the age of 16 and it’s always been a passion of mine! I am love to cook for my family and friends, I can clean, organize, and run errands. Having responsibilities is what keeps me motivated! I currently work as a swim instructor with the YMCA working with infants, younger children and older kids. I am also taking classes at Rock Valley Community College. Alongside childcare I do believe pet-care is super important and fun! I’m a cat lover myself but dogs are always a joy to be around.
