Ruby $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my names Ruby, I used to babysit a lot in high school before I moved and thought it was so fun! I mostly worked with two kids aged 2 and 4, and babysat them for almost a year. I’m a first year college student so babysitting is a great way for me to make money while still having time to focus on school work. I’m also an artist although I’m still working towards making a living off that. But if your kids enjoy to draw I’ll probably end up teaching them a thing or two too!

Casey $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Lyons, IL

Growing up in an in-home daycare run by my mom, caring for children is one of the things I know best--I have over ten years of professional experience working as a daycare teacher, babysitter, and nanny. Past work has included caring for 1-5 kids at a time, at a range of ages from infant to school-aged. I specifically love getting to know kids for all of their quirks and personalities, helping them learn and grow, and doing all I can to ensure that we have a full, fun day together. A little about me personally: I am from originally from the Nashville area and moved to Chicago to pursue a career in the performing arts, which I do primarily now alongside childcare. Besides performing and caring for kids, I enjoy reading, exploring the city, and spending time with friends. I look forward to meeting and connecting with you soon!

Jeimy $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I'm a passionate and experienced nanny who loves bringing joy and creativity to every day. With over 5 years of experience and glowing references, I'm skilled at making each moment special—whether it's crafting, painting, reading, or having a spontaneous dance party indoors. If your little one loves the outdoors, I'm equally excited to explore parks, visit libraries, or just enjoy some fresh air together. Currently working a 9-5 job, but I miss the magic of nannying and would love to bring my enthusiasm and flexible schedule to your family. Let's keep your child happy, engaged, and having fun!
