Only able to work with families who are potentially open to me bringing my daughter, who was born on March 20, 2026, with me. Hello Families! My name is Kasia and I am a fun, loving, caring, responsible, and reliable professional educator. While working with children I like to create a warm, safe, and welcoming environment in which the children are able to express themselves freely. I allow them to choose activities and build on their interests in order to challenge them; while also keeping activities age and developmentally appropriate. I strive to support the development of each individual child, and build a partnership with parents to support their wants, needs, and values. I look forward to meeting your family and creating a long lasting relationship with your children! EDUCATION: Master of Arts in Reading Education - Concordia University, River Forest IL, 2024 Bachelors of Arts in Elementary Education with ESL/Bilingual Endorsement - Dominican University, River Forest IL, 2019 I have certificates in Infant/Toddler Care as well as Early Childhood Education. I have taken both Infant/Child CPR classes as well as a First Aid Certification Class, and feel very confident performing CPR if needed. I have also been trained in SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) and SBS (Shaken Baby Syndrome) among many other child-care related trainings. EXPERIENCE: Currently expecting our little one in March 2026. I have taught kindergarten for 7 years and preschool for 1. I have worked in an early childhood education center (NAYCE accredited) as a support teacher for all ages, as well as a primary teacher in the 2 year old classroom. I have experience with allergies and epic-pens, as I have had multiple children with different common allergies. Infants (under 1 year old): I have experience with feeding breastmilk and formula bottles, introducing and feeding solids, changing cloth and disposable diapers, developing milestone skills such as: sitting up, crawling, walking, sleep training, developing fine and gross motor skills, stranger anxiety, sign language, etc. Toddlers (1-3 years old): Potty training, stranger anxiety, broadening their diets, communication skills, enhancing fine and gross motor skills, encouraging independence, teaching self help skills, etc. School age (4+ years old): Encouraging independence, tutoring in all subjects, teaching self-help skills, planing and implementing lessons focused on common core standards for grades k-6, etc.

I am an experienced babysitter who loves to help foster creative thinking through play! I've babysat children ages 6 months - 13 years old and I've also worked with children and adults in educational settings including The Piven Theatre Workshop, Time Education, Right At School After School program, and Flashpoint College. I am an engaging child caretaker who knows how to show up and be on time, with current CPR/AED certification. Separately from childcare, I run my own business, which means I'm not seeking a full time role but I do have some flexible availability that can be helpful for families seeking backup care, date nights, or potentially part-time care.

“Carrie is great! She went above and beyond. Our daughter loved her and asked if she could be her babysitter all the time. Also our dog had an accident and Carrie stayed cool and helped. Definitely recommended”

Hello! My name is Joanna ! I am 28 years old with a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education. I have been babysitting since I was about 13 years old for teachers from my elementary school to my high school teachers. I have always been interested in children which is why I persuaded my degree and currently a second grade teacher within CPS! I love spending time with children and seeing them smile! Making them smile and me being the reason makes me happy.

Hi I’m Jordan! I double majored at Purdue in psychology and law & society and graduated in 2024. I moved to Chicago for law school and I just finished up my first year. I have been providing childcare since I was about 16 years old and I’m first aid & cpr certified. I worked at a local daycare in my hometown for a summer. I was also a nanny my senior year and continued to nanny for that family until I left for college. While at Purdue, I worked at a daycare. I was a floater, so I worked in the infant room, multiage room, 2s room, and pre-k so I am comfortable with all ages! I am also comfortable with pets!

“Jordan is wonderful! She is kind, professional and timely. She was great with our 1.5 year old, and we highly recommend her!”

Hi! My name is Tracy! I would like to introduce myself to you. First and most importantly, I am the mother of two wonderful college age children and have a wonderful husband. I am also currently an elementary teacher! I love my job and love working with children! I have a lot of patience and always have a positive attitude. Prior to teaching I worked at a daycare/preschool. I also babysat two infants daily in my home and watched them as they grew into toddlers. I am CPR and first aid certified as well. I also love interacting and helping seniors! I have helped and enjoy talking with seniors in my own family as well as neighbors. I love to care for seniors because they have lived such a long life and deserve to be treated with respect and kindness. Seniors are a great treasure with so much left to share! Another thing I love is dogs! I have two of my own currently. They bring so much joy! Thank you for your time!

“I hired Tracy for a senior sitting job to provide companionship to my mother in an assisted living facility 300 miles away from me. The bond they developed, the support Tracy provided to my mother, and the comfort she provided me exceeded all expectations. My mother received both social and mental stimulation, fresh air, periodic therapy, and a new friendship. Tracy also did several small tasks and brought occasional treats upon my request. She is responsible, thoughtful, compassionate, and kind. She truly is an angel!”
