Hi I’m Jordan! I double majored at Purdue in psychology and law & society and graduated in 2024. I moved to Chicago for law school and I just finished up my first year. I have been providing childcare since I was about 16 years old and I’m first aid & cpr certified. I worked at a local daycare in my hometown for a summer. I was also a nanny my senior year and continued to nanny for that family until I left for college. While at Purdue, I worked at a daycare. I was a floater, so I worked in the infant room, multiage room, 2s room, and pre-k so I am comfortable with all ages! I am also comfortable with pets!
“Jordan is wonderful! She is kind, professional and timely. She was great with our 1.5 year old, and we highly recommend her!”
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.

I am currently finishing up my first year of medical school in the Chicago area. I am offering childcare services, senior care, household services, and pet services. I have nearly 10 years of experience working with kids of all different ages; I have experience with both tutoring and babysitting. I am extremely dependable and can be flexible to meet the needs of your family. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and have 3 years of experience as a Patient Care Technician, so am also available to support older adults who may need someone to spend time with them. I have had dogs throughout my whole life and am very comfortable with pets as well. I also have a car and can provide transportation services. Willing to help with chores around the house, cooking, tutoring, homework, sports, activities, transportation, etc. - really anything you might need!
“Lily was on time, great with our kiddos and even washed up dishes I had left in the sink! ”
Hello Beautiful Families! I am Micquel (my-KELL), a Chicago native, an healthcare professional, and a current MBA candidate at UIC completing my studies this fall. I also hold a Master of Public Health (MPH) in Maternal and Child Health. Professionally, I am a former Clinical Research Coordinator at Lurie Children’s Hospital and currently serve as the Quality and Safety Specialist of Emergency Services at UI Health. I have a deep passion for childcare and over a decade of diverse experience. Throughout my undergraduate and graduate studies, I dedicated a year volunteering in hospital NICU and pediatric units, coordinated tutoring for refugee children, and assisted at a local Crisis Nursery. I also have specialized experience providing dedicated, patient care and tutoring for a child with ADHD and autism. Additionally, my background includes mentoring adolescents through city youth programs, which helped me master the balance of keeping energy high and maintaining a calm, authoritative structure. I bring a unique blend of high-level safety expertise, advanced education, and genuine joy to every family I work with. I look forward to lending a helping hand to yours! Note: Fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
“Miquel was excellent! Would definitely hire again!”
Hi! I am experienced in long term and occasional sitter jobs and am willing to be flexible with necessary tasks. I am happy to help out with late nights or overnights as well with over 500 hours of experience in overnight care. I feel most comfortable being with children but can also can help out with homework, playtime, meals, light housework, and piano practice if applicable. Pets are perfectly fine, and I have over 100 hours of animal shelter expertise.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
