You don't need to look any further...you have found the sitter for you! Shona has been a mentor, teacher, and "second" mom to my 4 daughters. She sincerely and genuinely cares for people, especially children, and their well-being. Shona was born to be a caregiver. She has great insight and wonderful counsel. Her intuitiveness was a blessing when my child was having a difficult day. I was always so thankful for her compassion!

Tina H., Babysitter in Bourbonnais, IL 60914 with 3 years of paid experience

I’m a retired mother age 55 that has raised 3 beautiful, successful children. I just ended a 3 yr. Nanny position for 2 children ages 5 & 11. I started when the little guy was 2 yrs old. I changed diapers, made bottles, successfully potty trained in him in one week. During the school year I came early, helped get them up, made breakfast & drove them to school. Pick up after school & care for them til 5pm. During the Summers, I babysit 5 days a week, 9 hours a day. I drove the children to and from all extracurricular activities including sports. I am a hands on Nanny. We played games, went swimming, went to the movies, the zoo, parks, water parks. You name it I do it! I have grown to love that family very much!!. But as the children are in school full time I am ready for my next journey with your family. I have my own clean, safe car & I am good with pets. I am available on Tuesdays & Thursdays 7:30 am to 5pm.

Tina has nannied for our family for almost two and a half years. My kids are 4 and 11 years old. The kids love her and she keeps them busy interacting with them. My daughter loves her egg sandwiches so much, my daughter will only let Tina make them for her. She is very intentional with how she interacts with the neighbors and their kids, so not to upset anyone. She has brought my kids to multiple recurring activities (sports, summer camps) including school (Drop-off and pickup). She truly cares for them as if they were her own.

Hi I’m Sammy! I’ve been doing random babysitting clients for the past year and am looking for something more steady! I have been babysitting my cousins for the last 8 years, starting when they were 2! I love being a sitter because I get to help kids have fun in a no judgement zone! Some of my best memories were with my babysitters growing up, if I can make anyone’s day better it’s a job well done!

Kathleen M., Babysitter in Bourbonnais, IL 60914 with 10 years of paid experience

I'd describe my personality as responsible, creative, and nurturing. I like working with kids because I enjoy helping kids reach individual milestones and nurturing their creativity. I'm looking for a job where I can build a positive work relationship with families and will offer opportunities to nurture, teach, and support children. I started working with kids at 20 years old. Working with kids inspired me to seek out higher education and helped me grow into the person I am today. In my spare time, I like to read, write, and make arts and crafts. One thing you should know about me is I ensure to create a safe learning environment for all children in my care. My skills include open communication with families, building positive rapport with both parents and their children, also providing clear, consistent, attainable instruction for young children.

Karly L., Babysitter in Bourbonnais, IL 60914 with 1 year of paid experience

Hello! I’m a dependable, caring, and responsible babysitter and pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for children and animals. As the eldest of five children, I’ve had years of experience helping care for younger siblings and understanding the responsibilities that come with caring for children. I’m also an aunt to two boys under the age of three, which has given me additional experience with infants and toddlers. In addition, I have one year of daycare experience, where I gained experience creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for children. I’ve also been providing pet-sitting care for family members and family friends for over six years. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and following each pet’s individual routine and needs. 🐾 I take pride in being patient, attentive, trustworthy, and respectful of each family’s routines and home. My goal is to give parents and pet owners peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in caring and responsible hands. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide reliable, compassionate care for your children and pets!

I love children, I am looking to add to my income. I am on Disability and just need some extra money to pay bills. I am always on time and have raised 3 children of my own and have 4 grandchildren. So I think this is plenty of experience. Children that are around me do not want me to leave.
