Hi! My name is Sydney. I am 22 years old and currently have a 2 year college degree and and now currently on my 3rd year of college! I am offering nannying / child care as well as house hold services. I love working with children. I have worked with children for many years being a lead pre school teacher for all age groups and as well at an elementary school and a para professional / teachers aide. I have remained passionate when it comes to working with children. My mother is a teacher, my step dad being a principal at an elementary school, and both my grandparents being teachers:). I have learned so much through them and alongside have a long experience of working with children. Starting young I babysat for family and friends as well as my younger siblings. I also nanny as well for families. I have been a lead pre school teacher for infants, toddlers, and elementary aged students. Lastly, I am currently a paraprofessional in an elementary school. I work with children who have special needs, or who may need more one on one support in the classroom. I treat my kids with so much love and care. My goals are making them feel seen, cared for, and truly loved and cared for. I enjoy taking care and helping children grow in a loving, energetic environment. Along the way with having fun! I can also work as a household assistant too. I can cook, clean and run errands! I am CPR certified and trained as well A little about me I love my family and friends. I enjoy traveling when I am able to, and remain active. I also am a bit artsy I enjoy painting, coloring and making crafts. I am also trying to learn how to sew currently. I am bubbly, energetic, and overall open minded to new experiences and adapt well to new environments!
Reliable, attentive sitter providing calm, high-quality care. Detail-oriented, punctual, and respectful of routines and homes.

Hi, I'm Brooklyn! I am a junior at the University of Kentucky studying Clinical Leadership and Management, and I am back in the Chicago suburbs for the summer. Those who know me would describe me as responsible, friendly, and hard working. I love working with kids because I enjoy watching them learn and grow, and providing a nurturing space for them to do so. I am fulfilled by helping others, and when I see that a child is happy, it makes me happy. I am also an animal lover and am more than willing to help out with your furry friends! I'm looking for a job that offers flexible hours and a comfortable environment. In addition to caring for children and pets, I am also willing to help with minor household duties and provide transportation. I have had experience with children of all ages since I was about 13, but growing up as an older sister, I have had the opportunity to care for children nearly my whole life and find it incredibly rewarding. I look forward to helping your family in any way that I can!
“Brooklyn is great with our daughter. We’ve loved having her watch our daughter. She is warm, dependable, and completely engaged—our daughter looks forward to every visit. Brooklyn is great with routines, playtime, and communication, and we always feel at ease knowing she’s in good hands. Highly recommend!”
