Hi.My name is Stefany, I am 31 years old, currently residing in the northwest side of Chicago. I’m currently looking for few part time morning/evenings or overnight weekend stays. Whether it’s to step out and run to get errands done, dinner with a friend, a date night with your spouse, you name it. I’m here to help! I have experience with kids as long as I can remember. Babysitting was second nature to us. Migrating from Guatemala , my mother’s specialty was babysitting but primarily teaching . However struggles came in the way , the language barrier being one of them provided me with my first job at 8 years old as a translator . . I not only was “working” but it served me as it helped me practice my second language but most importantly I found much meaning and value in my mothers work...I loved going, I was able to make friends with their kids , build relationships and left inspired . Along the way, I was blessed with having nephews and nieces. Nine now! Growing up as a tight-knit family we’re always around to help each other out. Fast forward to my late teen years into young adulthood I started taking babysitting gigs as side jobs. I enjoy not only watching after kids but being able to not only be a teacher to them but most importantly learn from children themselves . They carry much gifts and help remind us about the meaning of what life really is about I hope to be able to share this with you and your family. Look forward to meeting and working with you!

Hello, I have been working with children for many years and adore working with all children, especially, the terrible two's! I have cared for both of my elderly parents, and many pets through the years. I would like to work with many more.

Hi! My name is Yazzy and I’m currently a regent graduate from Columbia College Chicago. I am offering childcare services & pet services. I love being a babysitter and I’ve worked as a nursery worker until recently so I have several experiences with newborns, infants, and toddlers since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included crafts, tutoring, and meal prep. I also work as a photography assistant and can take your family portraits! I have four dogs of my own and I’m very comfortable around all pets & will treat your fur-babies as one of my own.

I am fun loving of all kids and pets. With my own daughter I learned a lot about growing children and how to teach and help them grow into the best part of themselves. I also know what it means for parents to have a break, and can easily make sure to give you the peace of mind needed when taking a much needed break.
