Find local babysitters in Champaign, IL

My name is Kathia, and I am 25 years old. I am new to the Champaign area and am looking for part-time or flexible child-care positions as I will also be attending graduate school full time. I have provided paid child care services for the last 4 years, but my experience extends to caring for family and friends during my early teenage years. If you are looking for a reliable, organized and caring child care provider, please feel free to reach out!

I have been a caretaker as early as I can remember. I started babysitting for children in my neighborhood in middle school. I went to college and obtained my degree in Early Childhood Education. I raised three daughters of my own. The majority of my jobs over the past twenty five years have been caring for young children. I have acquired some great experience and lessons over the years. My strengths are my patience and reliability. I love singing and reading to children. Taking long nature walks is one of my favorite activities to share with children. If you would like to talk further;. Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. Thanks so much! Ellen Buetow

Hi! I'm Iggy. I've worked as a babysitter, nanny, after school counselor, and outdoor education instructor. I'm a certified lifeguard, CPR/first-aid trained, and I have my youth mental health first aid certification. I have experience with ages 1-18, and have experience working with children with mental and physical disabilities. I'm new to the Champaign-Urbana area and would love to connect with some local families! My favorite part of working with kids is helping them embrace their creativity and curiosity. I love finding what kiddos love to do and supporting them in it, whether it's building a pillow fort, reading aloud together, or playing outside. I respect the intelligence and independence of the kids I work with, and try to provide gentle, discovery-based guidance when needed. P.S. I used to work at an animal shelter and my house is basically a menagerie at any given time, so pets are a bonus and I'd love to help care for them as well!

Hi! I’m Tajane’a, and I’ve been working with children for over a decade, starting from when I was around 10 years old. I have experience babysitting through Wyndy, where I’ve had the pleasure of working with a variety of families, including children with special needs. I’m Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified and committed to creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment for every child in my care. I currently work at a public library where I develop youth programs that combine creativity, learning, and fun. I’m also pursuing my Master’s in Library and Information Science with a focus on Youth Services. Working with children is truly both my passion and my career path. I love bringing that same creativity and care into babysitting, whether that’s through crafts, reading, cooking, imaginative play, or just sticking to a routine that helps your child feel safe and understood. If you have any questions or would like to connect, feel free to message me!

Hi! My name is Abby Histed. I have roughly six years of babysitting experience from infant to teen, and I absolutely love working with kids! I love getting kids out of the house and doing fun activities, especially during the summer. I also work as an assistant karate instructor so I have teaching experience, and am comfortable with large groups of kids if needed. I am CPR and first aid certified, have a clean driving record, and can provide my own transportation. I can also provide references if needed. I look forward to hearing from you : )

I have my CDA, Paraprofessional certification, & CPR certification. I have worked in daycare settings, school settings, & home based babysitting. I have references as well. I have experience with children with developmental issues, disabilities, & behavioral issues. I worked for “Circle academy.” Which is a school for children with behavioral issues & other disabilities.

I am a momma of a 9 year old little girl and a bonus momma to a 3 month old. Aside from that, I am the oldest sibling and cousin within my family so I have a lot of experience with kiddos. I have been babysitting off and on for about 8 years. I love children(toddlers are my absolute favorite!)& I am experienced and willing to work with kids with special needs!

I absolutely love being a sitter because I get to make a positive impact on children’s lives while helping families feel at ease. It’s a rewarding experience knowing I’m not only providing care but also offering companionship, fun, and a safe environment for kids to thrive. Seeing their smiles, hearing their laughter, and watching them grow makes it all worthwhile." I have several years of experience babysitting for families with children ranging from infants to pre-teens. I’ve also assisted with homework, meal preparation, and light housework. My experience has helped me develop strong communication skills with both children and parents, ensuring the family’s needs are always met. I am CPR and First Aid certified, which gives me the confidence to handle emergency situations. I also have training in child development, so I understand how to approach different age groups and engage with them in ways that suit their needs. Additionally, I am skilled at managing routines, helping with educational activities, and fostering positive behavior.

Hi I'm Courtney I recently moved to Champaign in August to live with my sister. I worked at a daycare up until moving here. I enjoyed it so much that I wanted to pursue working with kids. A couple things I enjoy are spending time with my family, going camping spending time outdoors and I love crafts. I have earned my CNA, First Aid, CPR and food handler certifications. I am so excited to start this new journey of my life!
