I can guarantee your peace of mind, my main goal is to begin with making sure you know see and feel your children will be in the right care. I adapt to current schedules/routines and also can help incorporate one. I love arts & crafts so any chance I get I like to include it. I have babysat/nannied pretty much all over Illinois, newborns to 7 yrs old. I also have two children of my own who are know full on teens. I like to stay in touch with parents and have great communication. Throughout the day I might send a picture or two or three. Hope I can be a part of your helping system. Have a great rest of your day

Hannah P., Babysitter in Darien, IL 60561 with 8 years of paid experience

I am currently a grad student for my Master's in Finance and starting a Doctoral program soon. I have very good time management skills. I enjoy spending time with kids whether it’s entertainment or learning. I believe the impact you have on a child’s life lasts forever. I played college basketball at Triton as well as experienced in other sports (volleyball, softball). I have experience with children of all ages from newborn to teens. I have worked at the Park District of LaGrange as well as the Brookfield Summer camps. I am also CPR/First aid certified.

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!

Pierre watched my son when we went on a trip to Tucson and he did an amazing job. My son was sound asleep when I got home. He was super nice, very professional, and had great energy!

We were lucky to have Delaney as our sitter for over a month. She was reliable, on time, and communicative. She balanced being professional and fun/ friendly naturally. I'd recommend her as a sitter in a heartbeat.

Gina  H., Babysitter in Darien, IL 60561 with 20 years of paid experience

Hi ! I'm a single mother to my daughter who just graduated from the Physician Assistant program at Marquette. Proud Mom here! I have over 20 years of babysitting and caregiving experience and am currently certified in Basic Life Support and First Aid. I grew up working at my mother's daycare center, where my passion for working with children bloomed. Over the years, I've volunteered in my church's nursery, taught Sunday school for Pre-K and Kindergarten, and cared for my daughter/nieces/nephews, as well as babysitting for friends and neighbors. I started my career as a professional caregiver over 10 years ago, so I have experience with anyone from infants to teenagers to the elderly. For the past few years, I have worked as a medical assistant in a variety of healthcare settings. To me, caring for children is very rewarding and I love what I do. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and my friends I am comfortable with pets. I have a reliable car and am able to help with homework, mealtimes, and light housekeeping. I value safe and fun experiences and love to incorporate learning into play and everyday activities. I Love making each day fun and kids smile. I'm a smiley bubbly positive person myself. I'd love to learn more about the ways I can specifically serve you and your family!

Gina started with our daughter when she was three months old and worked with us to find a great routine that has allowed our baby to thrive. Our daughter has gone through eczema flare ups, multiple formula changes and poor napping; Gina has been so loving, kind and took all of our directions really well. Our daughter, who is now nine months, always laughs and gets excited when she sees her at the door. Gina has been incredibly playful, creative and attentive to all of our daughter's needs (nap schedule, bottle feeding, diaper changes and milestone activities). We've felt so lucky to have her, and she has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders post-partum. I can’t recommend her enough.

Hi! My name is Rachel and Im looking for a babysitting job. I just graduated from Florida State University with a degree in psychology and child development. I have been babysitting for the past eight years and love it! Some activities I enjoy are walks, crafts and swimming. I am CPR and Lifeguard certified if you have a swimming pool. Some jobs I have worked have been a camp counselor, teachers aid and paraprofessional in a special education school along with nannying. During the school year I tend to babysit more due to the flexible schedule! I hope to find a family that I can help out.

Sherry D., Babysitter in Darien, IL 60561 with 10 years of paid experience

I have been a stay at home Mom for our boy's entire lives. They are now grown men, and I have become a Grandma. I really enjoy care giving whether for the very young or the elderly. I am a Christian, non smoking, first aid trained, very experienced babysitter. I have been a nanny for ten years. I have my own transportation, and can provide pick up after school. I am very reliable, punctual and flexible if needs arise. I am also a Stephen Minister with even more training in care and communication. Please allow me to give fun and careful care in your absence, so that you may be able to rest easy and not be concerned about the home front while you are away. I can be available M-F in your home. Currently, looking for a part time Nanny position for the 26/27 school year. I enjoyed giving care to a four and five year old active brothers during the 17/18, 18/19, 19/20, 20/21, and 21/22 school years. At that point they no longer needed after school care. This involved transportation to/from the grade school as well as transportation to/from the preK where the four year old was enrolled daily. We had a lot of fun together. In (2016-17) I cared for 2 elementary age sisters before and after school. Since their Mom is a teacher, she is home with them for the summer. The school year before that (15/16), I worked for a family with a 4th grade daughter and a 7th grade son. I have enjoyed becoming a part of their family. I am finding that I am in need of more than the 10.5 hours this dear family can give me. The previous year (14/15), I enjoyed caring for a 5th grade boy. The following fall he was being bused to his Jr. high and no longer needed a caregiver as he had older siblings. Would love to hear from you ASAP if you are in need of reliable, on time, transportation provider, and nurturing care giving for your children after school in the 203 Naperville district. My neighborhood elementary school is Steeple Run, so that is obviously my preference. Would prefer to stay in District 203.

Sherry cared for our 11 year old son before and after school this year. She was kind, reliable and gentle spirited. She was flexible too! She provided routine and safe transportation. We would highly recommend Sherry.
