Hi! I have been working with kids for 15 years. I love playing music and games with the children I work with. I also like to bake and cook teaching the kids valuable skills as well. In the past five years I have babysat children ranging from 6 months old to 12 years old. I nannied and did e-learning/school during the pandemic with a first grader and fifth grader with a range of responsibilities from preparing meals to helping complete classwork to planning activities for the day. I am currently going back to school to be a special education teacher.
“Aileen really helped us out; had a different sitter cancel an hour before and Aileen stepped in quick! Kids had a great time, Aileen was so helpful, and I would definitely have her sit again!!”
Experienced babysitter available! Hi everyone! My name is Ayla! 😊 I recently graduated from Wesleyan University and moved to Chicago to work as a paralegal. I have over eight years of babysitting experience with children of all ages, including two summers of full-time nannying. I’m a creative, hardworking, empathetic, and compassionate person who loves meeting kids and families where they are and creating a fun, supportive environment for everyone! I’d be happy to provide references or chat over the phone to tell you more about myself. 🤗 If you’re looking for a babysitter or know a family who might be, please feel free to PM me! I’d love to connect!
Hi! My name is Kaitlyn, but informally I usually go by KJ! I have around three years of experience in in-daycare childcare and 6+ years of babysitting experience in all ages from infant to school age. I am a current student at DePaul University where I am getting my BFA in film and television production, with a concentration in directing. My biggest goal is to make children’s films/media!!! I have such a passion for childcare and enjoy playing and music! My biggest goal is to create a nurturing, fun, but structured environment for your children. I have a very flexible schedule as well as my own, reliable, car!

"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."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
