Hi all! My name is Maggie, I was born and raised in Louisville. I just moved to Chicago from London, England where I studied to get my Master’s degree in Education Policy. Prior, I received my BA from Tulane University in New Orleans. I have worked for 3 years full time in Special Education at various age levels! I love the wonder that kids bring to the world and love creating exciting experiences for them! I love being able to be creative as a babysitter and come up with fun activities to do. I am happy to play, bake, do arts & crafts, etc. I do have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and available references. I am infant and child CPR/first aid certified as well as COVID vaccinated. I am completely comfortable with pets! I have vast experiences with children ages newborn-13yrs. I was first certified as a babysitter at 12 and have been working with kids ever since! I was a babysitter/nanny all throughout middle and high school, coached kids sports as a teenager, and spent the past year working in an elementary school environment! I spent 2 years working at a nonprofit that focused on arts education for ages 4-13 in New Orleans during college before spending 2 years in K-12 Special Education. I now work full time at a community college running their Special Education Transition program. My availability predominantly consists of evenings and the weekends, with specific dates typically reflected in my calendar. Please always feel free to reach out with any questions!
Hi! My name is Ally and I'm a School Social Worker at an elementary school. I work primarily with students who are PreK-2nd grade. I am offering child care and pet care. I love spending time with kids and have been babysitting various ages since I was 15 years old. I enjoy doing anything (games, crafts, helping with homework, driving to activities, etc)! I am CPR certified and have taken many courses for my career related to social emotional skills and regulation. I have also watched both pets since I was 13 years old. I love dogs and cats, and am comfortable with any breed or size. I have a German Shepherd, so I’m also used to hair :)
Hi! I'm Nya, I’m a sophomore in college. My passion for nurturing young minds led me to offer professional babysitting services. With regard to age groups, I have extensive experience with various developmental stages, ranging from early childhood to pre-adolescence. Whether it's fostering creativity with toddlers, or navigating the energetic world of elementary schoolers, I adapt my approach to suit each child's unique needs. When it comes to activities, I love sparking imagination through storytelling, crafting, and outdoor and indoor adventures. Additionally, my background in tutoring equips me to provide homework assistance and academic support.
I'm an educated and experienced babysitter, born and raised in Chicago! I have a Master's in Elementary Education, have been babysitting for over 12 years, and am CPR and First Aid certified. I love to knit, read, and cook!
Hi! My name is Lisa. My full time career is as an art teacher in a selective enrollment high school here in Chicago for the last 30 years. I teach Honors and AP Sculpture and Best Buddies Art. I love babies and kids of all ages! I'm looking for some occasional baby sitting during the summer. I am allergic to dogs, but love cats. I have two adult children of my own. I have my own car and can drive. I'm also fluent in American Sign Language.

"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!"
