Hi, my name is Janneth! Originally from Mexico, I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 15 years old. Babysitting has always been more than just a job for me, it’s a beautiful way to connect with kids and be welcomed into their world through kindness, patience, and respect. I remember how challenging it was for my parents to find someone they could truly trust to care for me and my siblings. That’s why I take this role seriously and always show up with the same love and respect that my parents wished for us. I love spending time outdoors, doing puzzles, coloring, and listening to music. I’m also great with dogs, I’m happy to help with Spanish homework or practice! Your child’s safety, joy, and well-being are my top priorities, and I look forward to being someone you can count on.

Hi, my name is Samia and I'm currently a student studying to become a nurse, with the goal of specializing in pediatric care. I am offering child care services. I have experience caring for children from ages 1 to 8 years old, including helping with feeding, dressing, playtime, reading, school drop-offs/pickups, and bedtime routines. I truly enjoy spending time with children, and I take pride in creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for them. My goal is always to support both the child's emotional and physical development while keeping things fun and age-appropriate. I am CPR certified and well-versed in safety procedures for children. In addition to caregiving, I'm comfortable with pets-I have a dog myself-and understand how important they are to a family. I also have practical skills in cooking, cleaning, and I'm happy to drive to appointments or run errands as needed. Thank you for considering me. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your little ones!

“Sam was able to help us out on short notice when we had a last minute cancellation of our child care, and she was great with the kids. We would definitely have her over again!”

I am from the west side of Chicago and I have been taking care of children since I was a young teenager. I have worked with a company for a little over 2 years, working with kids who attend school. I can help with chores around the household, homework, or any other tasks that will create a comfortable space. I own a dog and know why or how a task involving a dog will be handled. If I have questions I communicate well with the guardians and able to figure out the situation.

“Very good and patient ”

Booked by 1 family in Bellwood, IL

Growing up my grandma owned a daycare and I would help her take care of kids and plan arts and crafts time for them. I also have recent experience over the past 2 summers of working at a stay away camp looking over multiple different age groups of kids over the age of 6 full time. After my first summer I was promoted to leader of my cabin group and have learned to keep things together, better my communication, and still keep kids happy! Pets wise, I have 3 cats and a dog so I know how to manage!
