Hello! My name is Olivia. I am a 30 year old Special Education teacher. I am looking for a family who needs an occasional sitter on evenings, weekends or in the summer (date night, last minute, etc). I have worked with children of all ages, abilities & have cared for 3+ children at a time. I genuinely love kids- helping them, teaching them, building healthy relationships, going on adventures & being out in nature. In my free time, I spend time with family, friends & my dogs. I am very comfortable working with families who have pets as well! I am flexible, dependable & trustworthy.
I am a caring and dependable childcare provider with 6+ years of experience as a special education classroom assistant, currently pursuing my master's in special education. I'm skilled in creating a safe, structured, and nurturing environment while supporting children's individual needs and development. I enjoy engaging kids in fun, age-appropriate activities, helping with routines, and encouraging independence. I'm patient, attentive, and value strong communication with families.
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!!”
I am currently a freshman at Elmhurst University in Illinois, and play for the volleyball team. I am studying marketing. I grew up in Las Vegas and attend Bishop Gorman High School. I come to Vegas during school breaks and work there as well as in Elmhurst. My older sister has two kids that I have been helping with since I was 11. They are now the ages of 7 and 1. I drive now so I take them to their extracurricular activities and entertain them with fun activities including crocheting, knitting, painting, coloring, playing outside, as well as cooking. I am super comfortable helping with running errands and cleaning around the house. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs so working with animals is no problem! I love playing with animals as well as taking them out for walks!
Hi! I’m Michelle, a responsible and dependable college student who enjoys working with children. My childcare experience comes from helping care for my younger brother and babysitting for family friends, where I’ve learned the importance of creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I graduated as my high school’s valedictorian and am happy to help with homework and learning activities. I’m also involved with Northwestern University’s Supplies for Dreams, an organization that supports Chicago Public Schools through school supply drives, field trips, and one-on-one student mentorship. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or sticking to your family’s routine, I’ll make sure your children are well cared for and engaged.

"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!"
