Meet Leti

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi! My name is Leti, I am 32 yrs old, and have been providing childcare (on & off) for the past 15+ years. I am a native Chicagoan currently seeking opportunities to babysit in my free time (evenings & weekends). I am well-versed in traveling around the city and exploring all that it has to offer! I come from a large family with two sets of multiples (I'm a triplet)! And I've always enjoyed spending time with children of all ages (from infant to elementary-aged). I've worked as a babysitter/nanny, helped with light housekeeping/cleaning, and as a tutor for K-2 graders. I also have experience caring for multiple children (up to 5). I highly value communication and enjoy building long-term relationships with the families I work with. I look forward to meeting you and your family soon!

Leti was an absolute delight - so friendly and communicative. We felt at ease having her watch our baby while we were out, and would absolutely ask her to babysit again. Thanks, Leti!

Leti has done a wonderful job watching our 3 year old daughter. She is always extremely communicative and responsive and is a joy to work with.

I reached out to Leti given her excellent rating and reviews and am very happy that she lived up to the other users' feedback. I contacted her and received a timely reply, then she was very communicative via phone, email and text. I felt like she really listened to our needs/wants ahead of her babysitting appointment and came prepared. She was punctual on her arrival and made us feel at ease throughout the experience by texting updates while we were out. Would recommend and work with her again!

Leti did an awesome job watching our 4 month infant and communicating with us prior to hiring her on short notice.

Leti has been with our family for nearly a year and a half now (since our daughter was 6 months old) and we are so happy to have her in our lives. She is kind, thoughtful, caring and dedicated to helping our daughter grow and learn. Leti has a lot of experience which allows her to familiarize herself with our daughter's (ever-changing) routines very well. She is punctual, she is responsible and attentive, she keeps the house in shape, and she is always open to new activities and places to take our daughter. Best of all, our daughter loves her tremendously, and often shows her affection by dancing around in little circles whenever she first sees her. She is a beautiful human being and an excellent sitter!

Leti did a fantastic job helping us over 4th of July weekend. She was punctual (which is highly valued in my book), cleaned up after kids were done playing, and was able to entertain and play with the kids without any issues. My kids really enjoyed seeing her and were genuinely excited when we would talk about her arrival. I would use again and recommend her without any hesitation.

Leti has been working with us for 5 months now. She's always been reliable and great at communicating, always letting me know way in advance of her availability. I have a 3 year old girl, full of energy. Whenever I mention to her that Leti is coming, she is super excited and talks about the things that they are going to do and play with. To me that's the best review anyone can leave her!

I can't say enough good things about Leti. We were looking for a last minute sitter and she really came through for us. My 15 month old daughter had so much fun with her. Leti was great about texting and letting me know my little one was doing ok and it allowed me to enjoy my time away. Thanks again Leti!

We love Leti! She has been sitting for us for the past 5 months and we all adore her! Our little girl smiles every time she walks through the door. She's dependable, responsible, and so sweet! She truly cares about our daughter and always takes the time to learn about all of new stages and routines we're going through. She also takes the time to text me updates throughout the day. Such a great sitter and person!

Leti has been a babysitter to our son for the past 6 months. She's reliable and dependable, but most of all she loves and cares for our son and he loves her! She always texts me updates and pictures when we're out, cleans up toys/house before we come home and is overall a great babysitter.

Leti babysat my 3 children and they loved her! She was prompt, pleasant, and active with the children. They have asked for her again, and I will definitely call her again and would highly recommend her!

After an interview, I had offered Leti the position of babysitting my daughter twice a week to which she agreed. Based on her school schedule, we decided on the times that she would come over to babysit. Also, to accommodate the babysitting jobs that she had already had in place, I agreed that she can start two weeks later that I had intended. Then, she lets me know that she has decided to move on the date that she was scheduled to start, so we moved back her start date even more. Then again, a day before she was to start, she wants to change the time she had agreed to work. When I informed her that I could not change the time, she quit. I understand that things come up now and then, but this is ridiculous. Relying on her acceptance of the job offer and trying to understand her situation, I had to rearrange my schedule multiple times. Now, after all this, I'm left without a sitter and have to start the search all over again. All in all, based on my experience with Leti, she seems to be entirely unreliable and without any respect for others and I would not recommend her to anyone looking to find a babysitter.
