Hi, I’m Sydney, I’m 20 years old and have 8 years experience with kids aged 6 weeks - 12 years. I love baking, cooking, crafting, and being outdoors. I’ve always had a passion for kids as well as helping people when needed. So babysitting was an easy way for me to be able to do that. So whenever you are in need of a babysitter just let me know!

Hello! I'm Cailin, a recent college graduate new to the area. I nannied throughout college and have worked with children as a swim instructor, day camp counselor, and Sunday school teacher. I work full-time as a graphic designer from 8-4 on M-F, but I would love to pick up date nights, weekends, or even overnight stays! I love to encourage creativity with kids via arts and crafts, stimulating games, and time outdoors! I work hard to discourage screen time, and find that good old-fashioned play is what kids need! I'm able to help with elementary and some middle school homework, as well as care for pets.

Hello everyone! My name is Senia Johnson, and I have been babysitting since early high school. I truly love working with children and have several years of experience caring for kids of different ages. For three years, I taught swim lessons at my local pool, which has helped me develop the ability to communicate with young kids, patience, and a focus on safety while still making learning and activities fun. I am currently a college student at Illinois State University, where I maintain a 4.0 GPA. I am always happy to help with homework and support children’s learning in a positive and encouraging way. In addition to childcare, I love cooking and have been preparing meals for years, and I’m also comfortable helping with light cleaning and keeping spaces organized. I’m dependable, energetic, and passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children.

I really love working with children and have over 30 years experience. I recently moved to Bloomington Il. to live with my Mom who is 89 years old. I grew up in Bloomington Il. but have lived in Champaign Il. for the past 30 years. I am looking for part time work but will consider full time, if it is a job I'm really interested in. I have taught in a daycare classroom for 19 years and the past 8 years I've been watching kids in their homes and have found that I thoroughly enjoy doing this. I like hvaing time to spend with kids on a more one on one basis and the chance to work with children of different ages. The last family I was with for almost 5 years and it was a great joy for me to watch these kids grow and develop. I have experience with children of all ages including infants. I have babysat for years and have worked in a couple of church nurseries. I love to keep kids busy and active. I play with them, sing with them and do art. I also like to take advantage of the many things in the community for children Ex. parks, librairies, etc. It is great to get them outside, even infants I take for walks. I can provide many refererences upon request. I would like to have the opportunity to speak with you and meet your family. Thank you for considering me for your babysitting position.

During my undergraduate studies, I worked with children who needed support in every way, and that experience deeply shaped my love for caregiving. It showed me how children are pure in love, mind, and spirit, and how meaningful it is to be part of their growth. All of my undergraduate internships and jobs were focused on working with children—caring for them, showing compassion, engaging in play, and supporting them through important emotional and developmental moments. Here in the United States, during my first year I worked as a nanny for two children, which gave me hands-on experience in daily care and routine management. After that, I transitioned to a position caring for an elderly person, which strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to provide attentive, individualized care. I consider myself responsible, patient, and dedicated, and I enjoy creating a safe and warm environment for those I care for. -Always work with a digital planner so that everyone has the correct information. - I can support you with any extra activities you may need. - Different activities for your little ones' development. --- 1.Punctuality 2.Willingness to adopt new routines 3.Teamwork 4.Communication and constant monitoring of plans. 5.
