Find a last-minute babysitter in Elmwood Park, IL

Hi! My name is Nora, I’m 19 years old, and I have 3–5 years of experience in child care, pet care, and household help. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, including past experience as a nanny for a family with five children and working at Schaumburg Kasper, an after-school program where I helped lead group activities and assist with homework. I also have experience caring for my grandmother, which gave me a strong sense of patience, compassion, and responsibility in senior care. At home, I take care of three dogs and a cat, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all sizes and energy levels. I genuinely enjoy cooking, cleaning, and organizing—I find it rewarding to help families feel supported and stress-free. I’m reliable, caring, and always ready to jump in wherever I’m needed!

Hi! My name is Jonathan, I am 22 years old, and I am a pediatric registered nurse. I have experience caring for children from newborns through 18 years old in both surgical transplant and general medicine settings. I love working with kids and also have personal experience babysitting my two nephews, from the time they were babies through their school-aged years. My responsibilities have included playing fun games, helping with homework, preparing meals, and keeping them safe and happy. Although I work full time with children as a nurse, I have four days off each week and would love to spend some of that time babysitting. I’m reliable, caring, and bring the same compassion I use in nursing to the families I work with.

Hi, My name is Alexandra! Caring for kids has always come naturally to me - I'm someone who genuinely loves providing calm, nurturing care and helping little ones feel safe, comfortable, and supported. I started working with kids in high school when I got to assist classes for kids ages 2-9 years at my dance studio. Since then, I've babysat for multiple families with children a variety of ages and spent two years working at a city daycare, caring for children from 6 months to 6 years old. Through that experience, I discovered that I especially love working with infants and toddlers and am drawn to the more nurturing side of caregiving. I studied psychology in college with the initial goal of becoming a teacher, and while my career path ultimately led elsewhere, my passion for caring for children has not left. I currently work full-time in a corporate setting, which has made me very reliable, organized, and communicative - qualities I would also bring to a caregiving role. Due to this schedule, I am mostly available on evenings and weekends, but can also provide some mother's helper care during the day and can be flexible! I am energetic, attentive, clean and responsible, and I take pride in being someone that parents can rely on and truly trust. I love supporting families and caring for children, and I'm grateful to be able to do meaningful work with little ones while helping out families before I have children of my own.
