Mona J., Babysitter in Carpentersville, IL 60110 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m an experienced, reliable babysitter with 10+ years of professional nanny experience and 2 years as a German Au Pair living with an American family. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged, and I’m comfortable managing multiple kids at once. I can help with everything from diaper changes and bedtime routines to homework, meal prep, and fun activities. I’m calm, organized, and happy to tidy up so you can come home to a smooth, settled house. As a parent myself, I understand how important trust is. My goal is simple: happy kids and relaxed parents

I adore Mona. Our family has known her for about 5 years now. Our daughters are best friends (from ages 5 to 9 currently), and I am so glad for that. We trust Mona - she’s smart, caring, generous, thoughtful and intentional. She believes in teaching and allowing kids age appropriate independence. She recognizes and meets kids where they are but also has a lot of fun. Mona is reliable, responsible and a great communicator - she drives my kids to school and takes them on fun adventures. She is artistic, loves animals, enjoys the outdoors, loves to garden and cook, and is very involved and active in her daughter’s school. Finally, I witness and observe how Mona is raising her own daughter. Not only am I incredibly grateful that my kids get the benefit of Mona’s huge heart and genuine care, but I too have grown as a parent from knowing her.

Zaina H., Babysitter in Carpentersville, IL 60110 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello and thank you for taking the time to get to know me! My name is Zaina, and I’m an experienced, nurturing, and dedicated childcare provider with a true passion for supporting children’s growth and development. My journey in early childhood education began in high school, where I completed a certified Early Childhood Education program. This foundational experience sparked my love for working with children and led me to begin babysitting and nannying for families with children ranging from infants to 12 years old. Over the years, I’ve worked in a wide variety of childcare settings, including homes, preschools, and after-school programs. I spent three years as an educator and program manager at an elementary school, where I created and implemented engaging daily lesson plans and activities tailored to each child's needs. My approach blends structure with creativity to foster a safe, fun, and educational environment. I’m also experienced in household management and understand how to keep a home running smoothly while ensuring children are happy and well cared for. Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in nursing, which has further deepened my knowledge of child health and development. I’m certified in both infant and child CPR and BLS (Basic Life Support), and I bring a calm, attentive presence to every role I take on. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, staying active, and continuously learning new ways to better support the children in my care. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and dedication to a family who values compassionate, reliable care.

Zaina nannied for my 1-2 year old son and was exceptional addition to our family. She truly does her job with love and passion and made my son her top priority. she was very accommodating when we needed last minute changes or help which she didn't need to do but always wanted to help and make our lives easier. She took my son to the park and library, fed him, changed him. I loved how she incorporated education and development in his daily life which is a plus with her background. Always made sure to clean after him. She has me and my husband top recommendation, we felt very comfortable and trusting with her!

Diana has 5/5 ratings from my me and my husband! Diana was extremely accommodating when we needed immediate childcare for our 1 and 3 y/o kids. She was timely, reliable and oh, so good to our kids! She kept them safe, healthy and happy, which is exactly what we needed. She cared for them I’m our home for a week and my 3/year old still asks when Diana is coming back to play with her. Thank you, Diana.

Tenia S., Babysitter in Carpentersville, IL 60110 with 7 years of paid experience

Ready to experience the best babysitter that your kids will be disappointed you came home? Hello, I am interested in becoming a babysitter for you! My name is Tenia. I have been working with children and adolescents my entire life, and have been working on Sittercity for a few years now, and have been working with the same families for 2-3 years as well. Working with children is my passion, whether it is therapeutic or fun! I don’t have any children of my own so looking over other families' children fills my baby/kid fever! I treat all children as if they were my own and I love watching them grow each day! You will not have to worry about leaving your children in my care! I strive to make sure both you as the parent and your children are comfortable so you can have peace while you are away from your kiddos! I am currently CPR-certified and will provide documentation if needed. I can drive children to activities, watch children at your home, watch children at my home, help with homework, prepare meals, and teach healthy skills. I have been babysitting for many years and these rates are based on my experience and quality of work! However, I am open to discussing prices! I am easygoing and welcome communication of any sorts! I believe all parents should be able to have access to babysitting care. I look forward to working with you and your kiddos! If you are happy with my services, please leave a review! :) If you are not happy, let’s talk! I am very open to feedback and criticism! I have a family that you can contact as a reference if needed! :)

We were looking for someone to pick up our little one from daycare and watch him until one of us got home a few times a month. Tenia was great! she was on time for every pick up, made sure he got home safe, made sure he was comfortable when he got home, and checked in with us at each step to ensure we were aware of where she was. Highly recommend and would be connecting with her again for future date nights/pickups as well!

Kimberly S., Babysitter in Carpentersville, IL 60110 with 15 years of paid experience

I've been a nanny/babysitter since I was 18. I'm now 35 years old and I have a 8 year old son. I've always enjoyed interacting with kids and caring for them. I know how hard it is to leave your children with a stranger so I always to make everyone feel comfortable and be that extra hand they count on. I was in the army reserves for a few years and have also worked in a pediatric dental office as an assistant and receptionist. My now ex husband joined the army and so we had to move around a bit but my son and I moved back to the Mundelein area. My mom was also a nanny and so I grew up going to work with her and found my own passion for helping families and followed in her footsteps. All the families we have worked for have become like family and most we still keep in touch after the kids have grown up. My son has been going to work with me since he was 1.5 years old and he loves it. It's like a playdate for him and the other children. He's very social and well mannered. My most recent work was for a family in Lincolshire who had 2 little girls ages 2.5 and 5 when I started. I was with the from Jan 2023-Aug 2024. Prior to them I was with a family in Texas who have 2 little girls. They were ages 2.5 years old and 5 months old when I started. I worked for a year with them. I have other references from Illinois as well. My son used to go to work with me and I was lucky to find families who were kind enough to allow that. Now he is in school all day so its not longer a neccesity but I still would like to find families who wouldnt mind if i needed to for all the random days off of school, however I know it's not for everyone so I would understand and have care for him. I've cared for all ages from 6 weeks old to 14 years. I've also worked in a daycare in the infant room and toddler room. Helping to care for 12-20 kids at once. I enjoy doing crafts with the kids and going outside. I have my own reliable car and am non smoking. I also enjoy taking care of pets so if you have any that's not a problem. I've dogsat for families as well. I've taken care of up to 4 kids at once alone. I also organize so if you need help with that I would love to. Updated availability!! Currently available Monday through Friday 9am-230pm. I could be available on the afternoon/evening as long as my son can come with some days. For the summer he would need to come with everyday. Ideally looking for something part time for the summer

Kim had been an exceptional caregiver for our kids, Kennedy and Noa. She created a awesome environment that made the kids feel comfortable and safe. Kim was really attentive and always ensured they were engaged with fun activities. She is patient and kind, and truly loved the girls, and our girls loved her as well As the girls got older the schedules no longer aligned but we will always consider Kim part of the family. We highly recommend Kim to any family looking for a nanny. She’s was a great presence in our children’s lives, and we are grateful for her and the impact she made.
