I’ve worked with a wide range of families, from busy after-school schedules to full-time, live-in nanny roles.

Hi, my name is Whitney! I am from Green Bay, WI. I have 12 years of experience working with and caring for children of all ages. I also have experience caring for children with autism. I received my Bachelors degree in both Psychology and Family Studies from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN. I then took a gap year where I nannied full time, working for multiple families, as well as interned with CASA (court appointed special advocates) for abused and neglected children. I have recently completed my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from Northwestern University, and decided to stay in Evanston. I have always loved children and have a strong passion for making a positive impact on their lives. I have babysat and nannied for many different families over the years, and have a great list of references that I would be more than happy to provide. I also would like to note that I am fully vaccinated. I'm hoping to find a few more families in the area that are in need of occasional babysitting. I look forward to connecting with you :)

I have 7 years of experience working as a full time nanny and many more years of being a babysitter. I can help with Light Housekeeping and Cooking/Meal Preparation. I am currently a full time caregiver for an incredible 4yr old girl with Cerebral Palsy and CVI. She is non verbal and not independently mobile. I pick her up from school and transport her home with her wheelchair and participate in her weekly in home therapies (PT 2x week, OT, ST). I also administer medication. Previously I was a full time nanny for an 19-month-old with HIE. When I started he had a nasal gastric feeding tube and I participated in his weekly in home PT, OT, ST, DT appointments. Working with children, especially those who are medically complex, is my purpose and passion in life. I also am currently babysitting for seven families in the area.

Up to date on vaccines and CPR training. Willing to show proof. Available for daycare in my smoke-free, safety conscious home in Niles. I am available Monday through Friday 8a-12p, for weekly guaranteed hours or as needed basis. I choose to keep my daycare small for quality of care, cleanliness, and focused learning through play. At this time, I have a 1:2 adult to child ratio with one spot available. My home has every gate and I would love to give you a tour! I have owned and operated my home daycare in Niles since 2021. Worked as a Professional Nanny/Personal Assistant in the North Shore for the previous 10 years. Worked as a Professional Nanny for 10 years prior in Lincoln Park. Completed a Level 3 Credential in a Child Development program through the State in 2018. As a Daycare Provider I love to plan constructive activities, arts and crafts projects, backyard adventures- both fun and educational. Enjoy teaching a variety of subjects including reading, math, and milestone learning. Milestone learning programs are specifically customized and depend on the child’s age, personal growth, and development. My plethora of references can attest to the way children connect and feel comfortable with me. Please reach out for an application. I hope to hear from you!

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! :)

I have many years of experience with children in a wide range of settings, including many years of babysitting for families in their homes, working as a summer camp counselor, as an assistant teacher in a daycare, and volunteering in two elementary schools. I raised my own son and I occasionally watch my 4 and 6 year old grandsons. In the past year and a half I have watched a 2.5 year old boy, an infant girl from age 3 to 6 months, a baby boy from 7 to 10 months, and an 8 year old girl. I completed a pediatric first aid and CPR class in November 2023. When I am watching children I do not use my cell phone (other than in case of emergency or if I need to schedule an appointment) as I want to give the kids my undivided attention. I especially enjoy reading to children, doing art projects together, and taking nature walks. I am very energetic, and on days when I am not babysitting, I typically take 4 - 5 mile walks along the lake. I am very happy to provide professional and personal references. Among the parents from whom I can provide references are a neonatologist, a professor of psychology, a nurse, and an elementary schoolteacher. As a caregiver, I am highly reliable, kind, warm, and fun. I love both kids and dogs. My schedule is typically very flexible, and I can often make myself available for last-minute requests. Thank you. Rosanne
