Hello wonderful families, I'm a mother to 6 adult children and 8 grandchildren which means I'm around children everyday it keeps me on my toes. I'm a Chicago native. I worked as a lead infant /toddler teacher for Bright horizons and also as a full-time nanny and I also currently provide part time Babysitter services for so many great families throughout Chicago land. On Saturday's mornings I cared for a group of 20 children at a Jewish Synagogue and Saturdays at a Christian church while their parents attend services. I have worked with children for 25 plus years, Infants to School age I truly believe in teaching young children through -play. I have experience working with special needs children as well. I receive my education from Harold Washington College and Malcolm X College and studied in Early child development including infant toddler care and have countless hours of ongoing extensive training in infant care. I love working with children and being a part of their lives and introducing them to new and fun experiences, I love reading to them and encouraging them to use their imaginations. I enjoy been outdoors enjoying nature and its sounds. I am CPR and First aid certified in Infant, child, and adult and also have been vaccinated for all necessary vaccinations that are required to work with children Including the Covid-19 vaccination. When I have free time, I like to visit museums and take long walks and take pictures, I enjoy arts and crafts activities and being worth family. I enjoy providing a service for busy families who just needs a extra pair of hands around.

Hi! My name is Tatiana I am a lead teacher at a Reggio Emilia daycare and I’d love to sit for your family. I’ve worked with kids for over 4 years, and I’ve been babysitting for over 7 years. I also hold my CDA (Child Development Associate), covering ages newborn through older toddlers. I’m reliable, patient, and great at keeping kids engaged while following your routines.
“Tatiana is very attentive, caring, and genuinely loves kids! Tatiana was very flexible to meet my needs and took excellent care of my infant. I felt completely comfortable leaving my son in her care after our initial meeting. I will absolutely hire Tatiana again very soon!”
Hi, My name is Aryana. I am a current law student in my first year at The University of Illinois -Chicago school of law right downtown. I currently live in Hermosa which is a little neighborhood near logan square. I am the second oldest of 5 and have a small passion for teaching children (I was a substitute teacher in my last year of undergrad). I would love to spend a few hours a week babysitting to spend more time with kids but also to gain a little more income while in law school so I am not solely relying on student loans. Looking for something more occasional/ flexible so that I still have time to do homework. I am a very active person, I love playing games (video games, board games, interactive activities like blocks, barbies, and cars) with children, I enjoy reading bedtime stories and I can be firm so making sure your child is in bed on time will be no problem at all. I respect the parent's wishes at all times and make sure to never cross any boundaries. I believe it is important for the child to feel safe with me and most importantly for the parents to trust me, so like my mom says whatever she says goes, so I hold the parents to that same standard. It would be an honor to meet your family and possibly look after your child for the time being. I look forward to hopefully hearing from you. Best, Aryana
My name is Andrea. My history includes babysitting on occasions for families in the Chicago area during undergrad. I speak English and Spanish fluently. I am CPR certified, BS from DePaul University and MA from Roosevelt University.
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.”
