Hello! My name is Alexzandrea, and I’m excited to offer my babysitting services to families in need. With 9 years of experience in the education field and 7 years of babysitting on and off, I bring a well-rounded background of skills to ensure your child is cared for and engaged in a safe, nurturing environment. I’m a proud breast cancer survivor, and this journey has made me even more passionate about life and making meaningful connections. Recently, I was laid off from my position at Chicago Public Schools, and I’m looking to dedicate my time to helping children in new ways. As a parent of a child with ADHD, I have a deep understanding of how to manage different behavioral needs and create personalized strategies for each child to thrive. I believe in fostering a positive, supportive, and fun environment, where kids feel heard and loved. I also have my own reliable car, so transportation is never an issue if you need me to pick up or drop off your child. I truly love working with kids of all ages, and my goal is always to make each child feel safe, respected, and excited to spend time with me. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Hi I'm Ryan, I've worked in daycare centers and summer camps. I graduated from South Suburban College. I've been in child care for about 12 years now, I've had 2 nanny jobs and several babysitter jobs. I started babysitting a lot at 20 because I got step family that gave me 8 little siblings and I had to babysit some of their friends mostly during the summers. I like to be very active with the kids with play time or taking them to play at the park, Coloring books or reading books with them. Always down to watch a movie or play games on the tablets with them if allowed. I also love going places if needed. A little about me, Play basketball at the parks, Volunteer at animal shelters when possible, Definitely like my video games. I would say I'm very punctual, Very patient and kids love me.

Khaliah helped us last minute when we really needed it. She was extremely sweet with our little boy, and very thoughtful and considerate while in our home. While our kiddo is in daycare and we don’t need regular support, I’m excited for the opportunity to have Khaliah watch our kiddo again!!

Hi there. I’m Ashley. I used to work as a day care teacher in the school age room. I currently babysit through my local church in the toddler age/infant section. I’ve done childcare work since I was 16 so this is not new territory for me. I’m open to doing light housework and cooking as well as small errands as needed. At maximum I’m open to watching four children, and I can help with homework if needed for school age children. I’m also okay with taking care of dogs and cats including walking small dogs.

Ashley is so creative and pays attention to detail. She remembers big things like medical issues, and the small things like your kid’s favorite snack or color. She’s caring, for kids and their families, which is very important to me. Ashley is one of my go-to people for childcare!

Debbie was excellent with our newborn and our 10 yr old with special needs. She was communicative, reliable, super hands on and engaging. Both the kids enjoyed her. She has a natural affinity for caregiving and for child care and it shows. Her experience impressed us but her ability to jump in (our primary sitter fell through) and not miss a beat was truly a blessing. Would highly recommend her for your child care needs! She is a gem.
