Morgan 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Niles, IL

I am an ER Physician Assistant waiting to begin my job in April/May! I love kiddos and am looking to help families out while supplementing my income before beginning my career. My previous experience includes babysitting, working with children and adults with developmental disabilities, and working in a pediatric hospital. I spent 4 years as an ER tech at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, OH which is a Level 1 trauma center so I am very informed on safety, illness prevention, and complex medical conditions. I have experience with infants 0 days old all the way up to 18 year olds. I absolutely adore younger kids and babysitting opportunities so I can have fun doing crafts and playing outside! I grew up in Denver, CO and love the outdoors and really enjoy taking kiddos outside when possible and away from their tablets. I also grew up with cats and currently have two so I am very comfortable with them. I also love dogs and have experience dog sitting.

“Super fast response and short notice acceptance - greatly appreciated! Morgan was great with our almost 4 year old son. Would absolutely hire again!”

Lila $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Lila and I’m looking to do some babysitting while I’m home for college! I’ve lived in Bucktown my whole life but reside in Pittsburgh for part of the year as I’m a sophmore at the University of Pittsburgh. I love crafts, cooking, and overall being super silly and fun with kids! With four years of experience as a camp counselor at an overnight camp, I have plenty of energy when hanging out with younger kids. I’m more experienced with kids seven and older, but I’ve also babysat for kids under that. I have two dogs of my own, so no pets will be a hassle. Thank you!

Arianna $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi-my name is Arianna and I’m a Chicago native! I’ve been working in childcare since I was an early teenager, from volunteer work to nannying in recent years. I have experience from neonatal care all the way to school age children, but have a soft spot for infants. As a medical assistant, I’m trained and certified in BLS and CPR and have a vast knowledge on medical conditions and treatments. I can administer medications and provide wound care when medically indicated. I’m also available for household errands and have my own car and have never been in an accident. I’m more than flexible to help meet your needs!
