I love helping families in the neighborhood, and I'm great with homework help, meal prep, keeping the place clean, staying patient, and keep the house safe and quiet so that children can sleep while you're away.
“Megan is an excellent babysitter. She is reliable, professional, and experienced, and she’s wonderful with my 1.5-year-old. She keeps him engaged with activities, is attentive to his needs, and makes sure he’s safe and happy. I have complete confidence in her and highly recommend her to other families.”
Hi, I’m Serena! I’ve been the designated babysitter for my little cousins for as long as I can remember. As the youngest of three with two older brothers, I’ve always enjoyed being around children and caring for others. I’m also a nurse with experience working with all age groups, from newborns to adults. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and calm under pressure, with a strong understanding of safety and care. I love keeping kids engaged through play, activities, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m excited to bring my experience and caring personality to every family I work with!
Hello, Thank you for reading my profile. I am a newly retired Educator with significant experience teaching and working with elementary school children. In recent years I have taught kindergarten and worked with children who have a variety of needs, temperaments, and talents. I am thoughtful, caring, and conscientious, and will provide a high quality of care. I am also a parent and have had the pleasure of raising a child from infancy to adulthood. My goal is to provide a safe, informed, joyful experience for your child.
I am a nanny , who is also a mother , a student and a fiancé. I’m very loving , caring , patient and love working with kids. I also plan on being an early childhood educator . I love fall season , scary movies , coloring and going on walks on my free time. I have 2 cuddly pit bulls so I am also an animal lover. I work for multiple families through agency’s and baby sitting apps. I would love to help you and your family with childcare (:
Hello! My name is Gilary (pronounced Hilary). I have been taking care of children for as long as I can remember! Whether it’s been for family, friends, or as a paid caretaker. Babysitting/nannying was how I put myself through college, caring for children from infancy to preteens. In 2[removed], I worked as a 4th and 5th grade teacher assistant at a small elementary school. I myself have 6 nephews and nieces, all of whom I have cared for since they were babies. They’re all a bit older now, so I definitely miss having littles in my life! I work as a freelance grant writer, and I am also an actor in Chicago’s vibrant storefront theater scene. This makes me quite flexible and available for daytime care. I also do a bit of dogwalking on the side, so I’m more than happy to care for your pups and pets as well. All in all, I am comfortable with all ages ranging from infancy to teens. I have a car and an Illinois driver's license. I can cook kid-friendly meals, and for school-aged children, am happy to help with homework. I love to do arts and crafts, like knitting, crocheting, scrapbooking, baking, and singing. For any other inquiries, don't hesitate to reach out!
“Gilary is an engaging, kind, detail-oriented caregiver. She was always reliable and responsible when taking care of my toddler. She’s friendly, fun, and easy to communicate with. We loved having her be our regular and occasional sitter, and anyone would be lucky to have her with their kids!”
