Hello families! I'm Allie, I'm 29 years old, and I've been a nanny for the last 11 years. During that time, I've worked with infants up to teens, in both public and private settings. I also have experience teaching preschool, working with special needs, and assisting with household chores. I have a gentle, creative approach with children, and I love forming long lasting connections. Open minded, easy going, and filled with patience — I can confidently offer exceptional care and peace of mind. I would love to provide references upon request!

Hi, My name is Eily Stoops! I am a freshman in college at SIU Carbondale! My major is Speech Language Pathology, and my dream is to work with young children! I believe babysitting during my studies will ultimately help me in my long term goal. I was a lifeguard for about 4 years before coming to college. I am certified in AED, CPR and First Aid. I absolutely adore children. I also have a brother that is 13 years younger than me, and is 7 now. I feel like I basically helped my mother raise him, so that definitely gave me some more experience! I would love to meet your families and ultimately be trusted to care for your children! Please feel free to reach out!

I’ve been babysitting for a family in my home town for about 5 years now. I started when their oldest was 2 and youngest wasn’t born yet. I also have 3 brothers myself and a single mom so I’m very experience when it comes to everything. I’m currently a college student at SIUC studying Radiology and am looking for something to help bring in cash to pay for my schooling. I love kids and am very helpful when it comes to tidying up around the house as-well. I also have 3 dogs myself so pets of any kind are no issue at all.

I love being a sitter because I love being able to ensure people have security when they need it. I’ve been watching kids my whole life, my sister is Autistic so everything under the branch of babysitting I’d say I excel in. Im good at communicating, bonding, building a relationship, problem solving, cooking, cleaning, etc.

I genuinely love children and I have always instantly connected with them. Even as a child I was helping take care of children due to my mother owning two of her own daycares. I am first aide & cpr certified as well as safe serv (food safety) certified.

Hi there! I'm Oyin. I recently earned my degree in psychology and my masters in social work , and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter and worked a bright horizon and rainbows end. I have a lot of experience working with infants-school age, and I also spent three years babysitting a six-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.
