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!
Hi, I'm Tia! I'm 27 and live in Wicker Park. I've lived in Chicago for 4 years. I am available for child care and household services. I have been a babysitter and nanny for over 10 years. I have experience with newborns to preteens. I enjoy helping out with school work, crafts, reading, cooking and baking. I'm comfortable with pets. I am also available to help with household cleaning.
Hi there! My name is Nicole, but you can call me Cole. I recently moved back to the area after six years in Dallas, TX. On top of previous nanny experience, I am a first time mom to a 13 month old baby boy. I am CPR certified and well versed in infant first aid. My nannying experience includes, but is not limited to, children ranging from ages 2 through 15, caring for multiple animals (including reptiles), light to moderate housework and organizing, assisting in personal event planning, perfecting homemade cupcakes, and more. I am very passionate about the outdoors, creating learning experiences, and helping cultivate the village it takes to help families thrive. Professionally, after my last nannying position, I worked in the live music production space as an operations coordinator and received my 200HR Pilates instructor certification with an emphasis on classical reformer Pilates. After becoming a mother myself, I made the decision to revisit family and home management as it was plain to see where my compassion resided the most. Ideally, I will work with families who are open to my son (up to date on age appropriate vax) accompanying me on days my husband travels for work. I have an insured, clean, and safe SUV, a clean driving record, and an infant car seat available to use if needed or desired. I am open to family and home care for all ages. Due to allergies, I am limited to households with maximum one cat. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
I have a good experience with child care I have been a babysitter for 2 years. and above all because I love working with children, it is something that I am passionate about. I have been with needy children as a volunteer and I have done everything with love. I think that love and commitment to children is a reason that makes me a good babysitter . I would also like to mention a little about my responsibilities I have taken care of children from 1 years old to 12 years old. It is also important to mention that I am a responsible girl and that I know how to manage my emotions. Most people say that I am very loving and that everything I do is with love. I want you to know that I am a good babysitter because your children will always be well taken care of by me and I really know the value of family , I would like them to learn a lot from you. I am available every weekend at any time if you contact me beforehand and during the week from 11-2
“Alison is an exceptional caregiver. She demonstrates excellent responsiveness when planning and punctuality. She proactively asked me about my son‘s interest. With this information, she engaged my son and his favorite activities rather than Screen Time. Alison is highly intelligent and takes pride and her work. It is clear that she loves kids. My son thoroughly enjoyed his time with her and I highly recommend her to anyone.”
Hi - My name is Akie and I'm a music educator and youth development/arts nonprofit professional. I have been babysitting and tutoring since I was 12 years old! I am happy to help with tutoring, running around to sports practices/music lessons, and even give some flute or piano lessons! I am a licensed K-12 music educator. I currently teach early childhood music at Merit School of Music and in home private piano and flute lessons. I also used to be a chef at avec so I am happy to whip up a healthy meal for the kiddos or the whole family! I have been a caretaker for my own parents and grandparents and am comfortable with senior and palliative care.

"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!"
