I finished high school and am taking a gap year. I enjoy babysitting the kids in my neighborhood and would like to find more opportunities to babysit with other families. I do not believe in being on my phone while I am with your children. I believe in spending time with them and doing things that they enjoy. I am very creative and particularly love doing art projects and baking.

Hi! My name is Andrea, and I’m a responsible, caring, and creative nanny with experience caring for children of different ages, including infants. I’ve worked as an au pair in the U.S. and I truly enjoy supporting families by providing safe, loving, and engaging care. I focus on creating a positive environment where children feel safe, happy, and supported. I have experience with important early childhood milestones such as potty training, motor skill development (fine and gross motor), infant stimulation, and establishing healthy sleep routines. I can help with daily routines, educational play, light meal prep, homework, outdoor time, and activities that promote emotional and intellectual development. I love organizing fun and age-appropriate learning experiences. I don’t have professional experience with special needs children, so I prefer to care for children who do not require specialized care. I’m available for full-time, part-time, after-school, or occasional babysitting positions. My goal is to make your life easier and give your child a structured, joyful, and loving day. Looking forward to meeting the right family! 💛

Hello, my name is Kierra and I am a recent college graduate from the Soma Institute. I received my diploma in clinical massage therapy. I have always had a passion and heart for helping others, whether it is for infants, kids and even adults. For the past 12 years, I have been actively involved in helping parents and several families with childcare. I prioritize the children(s) wants and needs, while creating a safe environment for their overall well being. My responsibilities for childcare are versatile with driving to and from school, after school programs, homework assistance, prepping meals, household cleanliness, and preparing daily summer activities. I am fun, energetic, driven, responsible, dependable and spontaneous while ensuring the safety upon the children(s) that I am taking care of. I am driven to provide any family with active comprehension skills regarding the wants and needs of their young ones. Lastly, outside of taking care of children, I have lots of experience with house and pet sitting.

Hi! My name is Sofia, and I’m a Chicago native—born and raised mostly in Logan Square. As the eldest sibling of two younger brothers, caregiving has been a natural part of my life from an early age. I’ve spent the past few years working as a lifeguard and swim instructor, teaching kids ages 3–13 how to be safe and confident in the water. I truly love being around people—laughter, conversation, and creativity are a big part of who I am. I’m also a huge animal lover. I’ve had a dog, two cats, and even two geckos, so I’m more than comfortable around pets and happy to care for them too. I’m passionate about art, both making it and appreciating it, and I feel most at home outdoors. Whether we’re doing crafts, going on walks, or just sharing a good laugh, I bring warmth, patience, and positivity to every interaction. I’m excited to support your family in a safe, engaging, and joyful way!
