Currently, I'm a child therapist with a degree from the Erikson Institute. I have worked with children in a variety of settings, including daycare settings, mentorship roles, as a group facilitator, nannying, and as a coach for youth sports. I love working with kids, and I always hope to be an adult figure who is fun, attuned, thoughtful, respectful, and responsible.

I am a creative, friendly college graduate who has 10+ years of experience (and currently am working part time at a preschool!). I have a passion for working with kids, and aim to bring a fun and energetic spirit each time I’m there whilst still keeping safety and your expectations the top priority. I love to be outside, crafts, and creative play!! I’m certified in CPR and First Aid and have my own transportation. Please reach out if you’d like to discuss further!!
Kim $25 per hour for 1 child
Hey there! I am a single mom with one daughter who is 7-years-old. I am a former foster mom in the Chicago area and now that my girl is in school all day I am looking to fill my time. I have cared for children of all ages and we have both a cat and dog so I am good with animals too! I believe in strong boundaries, little screen time and being silly and having fun. Enjoy your time out and know your little ones are safe and giggling
Celestine $16 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Celestine. I am looking for babysitting jobs while I am home from college until mid January. I grew up with my mom running an in-home daycare and I have cared for the many toddlers and children in my family, so I have lots of experience and love for children! I also have experience caring for pets. I am enthusiastic, dependable, caring, and responsible. In addition to caring for children, I am happy to complete household responsibilities, pet care, rides to/from activities, and help with errands. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!
Wendi $20 per hour for 1 child
I am a public school kindergarten teaching looking for summer jobs! I have 15 years of teaching experience, mostly in preK and kindergarten, and several years of nanny experience including twins and newborns. I have my Masters degree in early childhood education and special training in teaching reading, so if your kiddo needs some summer tutoring, I might be a great fit for your family. I love getting outdoors and enjoying what Chicago has to offer during the summer. My temperament is calm and nurturing, and I focus on implementing consistent routines with the kids I work with.
