Hi! My name is Hana and I recently moved to the Lincoln Park area for my job as a data analyst downtown, post my graduation from UW-Madison in May 2024. I am looking for some occasional or part time babysitting gigs, as I absolutely love working with and spending time with children and would like to spend more of my free time doing so. I have experience babysitting infants all the way up to 15 year olds, and have been babysitting since my freshman year of high school (about 9 years). I also have my CPR certification and my own car here! Please reach out with any other questions!

I am CPR AND FIRST AID CERTIFIED! Some of my responsibilities have included help with homework, crafts, reading, helping with nighttime routines, a driving to and from wherever needed be. I do not have a car with me but I do have a license and clean driving record so if a vehicle is provided I would definitely be able to help more.

I am a sophomore in college at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. I have years of experience working with all ages. My younger sister is 13 years my junior and I have cared for her since she was born. I was a youth leader with the Neighborhood Boys and Girls Clubs in Chicago and a camp counselor and daycare worker with JCYS. I have been a full time summer nanny for a family with two children under the ages of 6 for the past two years. I have babysit for around 20 families throughout my babysitting career! I am looking for babysitting jobs in Cleveland during the school year and Chicago during Holidays and summers.
“Ava is a wonderful babysitter. She kept my daughter active, having fun and learning while doing things! My daughter LOVES Ava and gets so excited when she is babysitting. I recommend Ava without hesitation. You and your kiddos will love her.”
Hello! My name is Sabrina and I am a 27 year old woman with a very easy going and kind disposition. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I enjoy taking care of children and pets! I grew up with 5x younger siblings and a dog, and am very familiar with taking care of all age children. I have been babysitting since I was 13 and many of the families I babysat for found me very accomplished at caring for their kids, pets, and home! I am very active and love to make activities to do for the kids based on their hobbies. I am very kind, a great listener, and enjoy outdoor and indoor activities. I am happy to follow any guidelines the parents set out. For example, if you do not want your kids to watch TV or have a strict routine for bedtime, I am more than amenable to making it as easy for you as possible. I am not apposed to light house cleaning and always ensure I clean up any messes we make. Patience is key in my world so I always act with that, kindness, and a smile. Many families have trusted me with their kids in the past and we were well received. I can take care of one child or multiple and am comfortable with all age groups. I grew up with lots of kids in my house and noise and commotion do not startle me. I was also an athlete for a large portion of my life and am great with all sports! I have no allergies and comfortable with any pets!

"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."

"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!"
