Find a wedding babysitter in Maywood, IL

Hi! I’m a student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with experience in both childcare and pet care. I’ve been tutoring and babysitting since my freshman year of high school and have worked with youth programs, where I learned to create a safe, structured, and engaging environment for kids. I also have experience caring for pets and enjoy providing reliable care including walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship while maintaining their routines. I’m responsible, patient, and easy to communicate with, and I take pride in being dependable and attentive. With a background in lifeguarding, also serving in the national guard, I’m very safety-focused and calm in any situation. My goal is to give families peace of mind knowing their children and pets are well cared for.

I have 13 years experience in childcare, from babysitting/nannying, being a youth programs/summer camp staff, to currently working in a preschool. I love making kids happy and doing what ever they want to do!

Greetings! I am First Aid and CPR Certified, and 37 years old. I have raised and trained two dogs, cared for seniors experiencing dementia and have 20 years experience caring for children of all ages. My strategy with kids (and seniors) is to slow down, answer all questions and give them options. As big sister to three boys, my entire childhood and young adulthood involved caring for kids. Once I left home, I became a certified post-partum doula, then went on to nanny full time. I became more curious about teaching kids, so became a theater teacher for kids ages 3-11 for 6 years. I am looking to build some caretaking relationships for children, pets and seniors.

Hello my name is Shannon or Shan. During the school year I am a program manager for before and after school programs at a CPS grade school. I work with all ages from Pre K to seventh grade in the program. I have many years experience babysitting for infants and toddlers. My schedule is currently very open for the summer so I have a lot of flexibility. I love all animals, I myself have two cats, and also have several years experience pet sitting, mainly dogs and cats.

Hello! My name is Gilary (pronounced Hilary). I have been taking care of children for as long as I can remember! Whether it’s been for family, friends, or as a paid caretaker. Babysitting/nannying was how I put myself through college, caring for children from infancy to preteens. In 2[removed], I worked as a 4th and 5th grade teacher assistant at a small elementary school. I myself have 6 nephews and nieces, all of whom I have cared for since they were babies. They’re all a bit older now, so I definitely miss having littles in my life! I work as a freelance grant writer, and I am also an actor in Chicago’s vibrant storefront theater scene. This makes me quite flexible and available for daytime care. I also do a bit of dogwalking on the side, so I’m more than happy to care for your pups and pets as well. All in all, I am comfortable with all ages ranging from infancy to teens. I have a car and an Illinois driver's license. I can cook kid-friendly meals, and for school-aged children, am happy to help with homework. I love to do arts and crafts, like knitting, crocheting, scrapbooking, baking, and singing. For any other inquiries, don't hesitate to reach out!
