Booked by 5 families in Brookfield, IL

I am an experienced babysitter who loves to help foster creative thinking through play! I've babysat children ages 6 months - 13 years old and I've also worked with children and adults in educational settings including The Piven Theatre Workshop, Time Education, Right At School After School program, and Flashpoint College. I am an engaging child caretaker who knows how to show up and be on time, with current CPR/AED certification. Separately from childcare, I run my own business, which means I'm not seeking a full time role but I do have some flexible availability that can be helpful for families seeking backup care, date nights, or potentially part-time care.

“Carrie is great! She went above and beyond. Our daughter loved her and asked if she could be her babysitter all the time. Also our dog had an accident and Carrie stayed cool and helped. Definitely recommended”

Booked by 7 families in Brookfield, IL

For the past 20 years I have been entrusted to nurture newborns, to help preschoolers learn their numbers and letters, to organize fun activities, educational outgoings and to help families balance the many demands in their lives. As a mother of four children myself, I have always been privileged to help young people grow and learn. I continue to find this kind of work to be my labor of love.

“Kareena showed up early and jumped right in. She’s incredibly experienced and gave us tons of tips on things that have worked for her in the past. I can’t wait to have her come back! Our son loved her immediately.”

Hi! I am a college student majoring in Accounting at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I have been a swim instructor for kids under the age of 12 for a year and I have tutored children how to play piano for 2-3 years. I am very social, patient and fun and have loved my teaching jobs and would like to move onto babysitting kids and taking care of pets as well! I love arts and crafts, games, fun activities, teaching, animals and walks! I am also a fluent Spanish speaker and an intermediate German speaker. My mom has been a full time nanny for 15 years and I have learned a lot on how to be an excellent babysitter!

“Katie was wonderful with our twin 7 year old boys! ”

Booked by 58 families in Brookfield, IL

Hi, my name is Margarita, and I’m 29 years old. I’ve been babysitting for 13 years. Growing up in a large family as the third of seven children, I naturally developed a passion for helping care for my younger siblings. Over the years, I’ve gained experience babysitting both for my own family and for others. I’ve also worked in a kids' room at a gym, (happened for about 4 years) supervising children of all ages—sometimes up to 10 at once! I truly enjoy working with kids and love watching them grow and knowing I’ve contributed positively to their development. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m a proud mom to two little ones: a 5-year-old son named Ace and a 4-year-old daughter named Alaia. Also currently fostering a 1 year old baby girl who we are hoping to adopt soon! I also have 10 years of experience in housekeeping. For the past 4 years, I’ve been working full-time in the human resources department of a nonprofit organization, handling payroll.
