Hi my name is Paige , I am currently a Senior at DePaul. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I have been babysitting kids ages 4 weeks+ for over 4 years. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have also tutored so wouldn’t mind helping with homework. I like to keep kids entertained and engaged with interactive games, reading, music etc. I also enjoy playing sports and keeping them active! I also don’t mind cleaning/ tidying up, preparing meals, and helping with bedtime routine. Although, I don’t have a car I do have a license and clean driving record, so if provided a car I wouldn’t mind picking up or driving the kids around! I have had dogs growing up my whole life, so I don’t mind watching or caring for dogs at all!

Hi! My name is Jennifer. I’m 35 years old and have been a trusted nanny and sitter for nearly 20 years. Caring for children has always been something I truly enjoy, and I feel very grateful that I’ve been able to work with so many wonderful families over the years. I have worked long-term with three families in Chicago up until the end of last year, each with two boys ranging from infancy to 13 years old. During that time, I supported daily routines including morning and evening care, meal preparation, and school drop-offs. I’ve guided children through developmental milestones, fostered independence, and helped manage sibling dynamics with patience and consistency. These experiences have given me the versatility and skill to adapt to the unique needs of each child and family. I recently transitioned out of working in Chicago and am now spending more time in central Illinois to be closer to family. While I’m here, I’m also beginning to build my own small business in copywriting. My approach to childcare is rooted in patience, respect, and open communication. I believe children thrive in environments where their emotions are acknowledged, their independence is encouraged, and they feel safe expressing themselves. I tend to align with Montessori-inspired ideas and believe discipline should always be thoughtful, respectful, and focused on helping children understand their feelings and actions. Outside of childcare, I love reading, studying health and wellness, spending time outdoors, and enjoying nature whenever I can. I’m also currently learning to play the piano, which has been a fun new challenge. I’m a big animal lover as well and have a tortoiseshell cat of my own, so pets are always a bonus in the home. There is no greater compliment to me than being someone a parent feels they can truly trust with their children. I care deeply about creating a calm, supportive environment where kids feel safe, respected, and cared for.

Hi, I’m Judith! I’m 27, a French student living in Chicago. Caring for children has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I come from a big family of ten, with fourteen nieces and nephews, so I became the family’s go-to babysitter the moment I was old enough to look after little ones on my own. Since then I’ve cared for children of every age, from three-month-old infants to teenagers. One thing families tell me often is how quickly their kids warm up to me, even the shy or picky ones. I’m calm, patient, and genuinely fun to be around, and I know how to earn a child’s trust without rushing it. Parents also count on me to be reliable and easy to work with. I show up on time, stay in touch throughout, and take the initiative to help wherever I can. I love bringing a little extra to my time with kids. I play guitar and piano, I sing, and I enjoy sharing the languages I speak. Whether it’s a quiet afternoon, a full day of activities, or an evening routine, you can count on your child being safe, engaged, and well cared for.
