We had a very pleasant experience with Hannah. She arrived on time, and was easy to talk to. I really liked how she kept in communication or gave us quick updates throughout the evening. She was very patient with one of our daughters who was very upset. (About something not related to the babysitting) She took a calm and steady approach handling the situation. We cannot thank her enough! We would definitely like her to sit again in very near future!

Brittany was an excellent nanny for our son from age 4-5. She is fantastic with children, she is a bright light of energy, and she is both reliable & responsible. Brittany would sing, dance & play make believe with our son. Brittany went above & beyond, always helping keep our home tidy & taking our son to activities. Brittany has a big heart & has become a part of our family. Our son loves it when she comes to his birthday party & to babysit. If you are looking for a trustworthy nanny who will love your & care for your children, Brittany is the perfect fit for your family.

Rachel L., Babysitter in Chicago Ridge, IL 60415 with 6 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Rachel, and it would be an honor to babysit your children. With my 6 years of experience in a paid childcare setting and an additional 3 years unpaid babysitting for friends and family, I ensure your children will be in great hands. I also have a child of my own who is now nine years old, which gives me some parenting experience. I have plenty of involvement with assisting children to meet the appropriate developmental stages for their age. I have multiple outlets for learning activities including fine motor and large motor skills. When babysitting, I will sometimes bring a bag filled with some materials to help assist with games and crafts (with permission). Kids usually love my big imagination, that I love to sing, my sensory crafts, and my outdoor skills/activities. Some extra duties I am willing to help out with would include light household cleaning if time, parents, and children allow it, potty training, grocery pick-up, and meal prep. I currently nanny for a family in Frankfort but my last day working for them will be June 26. I’m currently looking for a part-time position, but I’m also interested in full-time for the right family!

To whom it may concern, my name is Charkishia Richardson and for the last ten years, I’ve dedicated my life to loving, and taking care of infants and toddlers!

After leaving the Jesebergers I gained another family The Lucci’s for a year and a half before they relocated to another state! Helping Take care of and assist these wonderful families with their beautiful & wonderful little girls gave my heart so much joy! In my time frame of working with both infants & toddlers my duties consist of: diaper changing, bottle feeding, preparing snacks & meals, laundry, bathed (if needed), insisted in tummy time, helped with potty training, sleep training, rocked to sleep, read books to and even taken outside for some fresh air on strolls throughout the neighborhood and park dates! I’m a very loving, and energetic individual who’s certified in First Aid and CPR and Covid vaccinated!!

I cannot say enough about Mrs. Richardson, she was absolutely amazing with our 3 kiddos. She was with our daughter from infancy to two and our elementary age sons after school for additional support. She truly was a blessing for our family with our hectic schedules, my travel schedule for business and a very demanding toddler she went above and beyond. Even during the winters, she made sure our daughter had outside time, long walks when it was warm, reading and flash card time, painting and various other activities that interested our toddler. When we forgot to prep snacks and meals, she jumped in to prep lunch for her and would update us if she was running low on her favorite foods or other essentials. She truly was my eyes and ears. She was the only person my family was ever comfortable with our children aside from my parents and sister which spoke volumes since he did not initially want daycare or a nanny. We miss her truly since relocating to TX. We have not been able to replace her we wish we could have had her with us as an au pair. She truly is a gem and has received several request for services from family and some of our personal friends. Anyone would be grateful to have her.

Ania D., Babysitter in Chicago Ridge, IL 60415 with 1 year of paid experience

Hi! I’m a warm, dependable, patient, and attentive caregiver who enjoys creating a safe and positive environment for children. I first gained childcare experience working at a daycare when I was 17, where I had the opportunity to care for and interact with children in a structured setting. That experience helped me develop patience, responsibility, and an understanding of how important it is to keep children safe, engaged, and comfortable. I am open to meeting prior before picking me to be your babysitter!! Zoom call can be arranged as well ❤️ I enjoy keeping children engaged through age-appropriate play, activities, reading, homework help, and creative time. I’m also comfortable helping with meals, tidying up after the children, and following parents’ instructions and household routines. I’m reliable, organized, easy to communicate with, and committed to providing caring and respectful support to every family I work with. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!
