Hi families, hola familias! My name is Juliebeth and I am currently enrolled at Loyola University pursuing a B.S in Psychology. I am bilingual, fluent in Spanish and English. I have always had a passion for working with children. Ever since I can remember, I would care for my siblings and babysit younger cousins. I am a former Montessori teacher for a Toddler Spanish Immersion classroom and worked with about 12 children a day, ages 2-3. I was also an assistant in a 3-6 year old Montessori Spanish classroom. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am COVID vaccinated and can provide proof of this. My hobbies besides babysitting include cooking, working out and watching movies. I love baseball games, traveling and spending time with my family. I have a vehicle of my own, transportation is not an issue. I am a very safe driver and have insurance/driver’s license, if needed to travel with children. I am also available to help with homework and light housework! I love to find activities to do in the city and I am always looking around. Please do not hesitate to reach out, I will get back to you as soon as possible. I cannot wait to meet you and your little ones!

Throughout middle and high school, I spent a lot of time volunteering to take care of kids, whether it was helping out at summer camps, after-school programs, or babysitting for family friends. I also work at a daycare. Those experiences sparked my passion for working with children and taught me how rewarding it can be to be a positive part of their lives. I’ve always made it a priority to create a safe, welcoming environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for, while also making sure they’re having fun—whether that means turning everyday tasks into games, coming up with creative activities, or just being someone they can laugh and talk with. I bring a bright, upbeat personality to everything I do, and I love being the kind of person kids can look up to and trust. For me, it’s not just about keeping kids safe and entertained—it’s about making them feel seen, valued, and excited to be themselves.

Hi, I’m Sarah. I am a career childcare professional with over 30 years of experience supporting children and families from the newborn stage through adolescence. My work is rooted in consistency, emotional awareness, and creating environments where children feel safe, engaged, and truly understood. In addition to my extensive nanny background, I am also a trained full spectrum doula, childbirth educator, and lactation educator. This allows me to offer a deeper level of support, especially for families with newborns, infants, and those navigating postpartum transitions. I have supported hundreds of families throughout Chicago and bring a calm, knowledgeable presence into the home during both everyday routines and more complex seasons of life. My areas of expertise include newborn and infant care, establishing feeding and sleep rhythms, toddler development, preschool readiness, and supporting school-aged children with structured routines and homework. I have significant experience working with neurodivergent children, including those with autism, ADHD, and learning differences. I focus on emotional regulation, connection-based care, and helping children build confidence and independence at their own pace. I am highly experienced in managing the day-to-day flow of a household. This includes school pickup and drop-off, activity coordination, meal preparation, organization, and maintaining predictable routines that support both children and parents. I am comfortable in homes with pets and in environments where parents work from home, and I adapt easily to each family’s unique rhythm. Families often describe me as grounded, intuitive, and deeply reliable. I value clear communication, mutual respect, and building long-term, trusting relationships. I am CPR and First Aid certified and fully vaccinated. I also follow a gluten-free lifestyle and am comfortable supporting families with dietary needs and food sensitivities. At the heart of my work is the belief that children thrive when they feel secure, seen, and supported, and that families deserve care that is both professional and deeply human. I would love the opportunity to connect and learn more about how I can support your family.

Hi, my name is Elissa! I’ve worked for the Wilmette Park District as a counselor for four years now. I’ve looked after kids of all ages, and I’m a mandated reporter for the state of IL. I’m looking for work opportunities through the school year. I have open availability and I’m flexible with my time as well. I have a reliable car if driving is a must. I’m skilled at cooking (especially healthy meals) and basic cleaning, and I don’t mind random tasks- whatever you need. My main priorities in caregiving are keeping kids safe, happy, and busy.
