Lisa L., Babysitter in Evanston, IL 60201 with 3 years of paid experience

I recently moved back to Chicago from my undergraduate school, in which I study French and Cellular Molecular Biology. My experience working with kids began in my household, being the oldest with three younger siblings. During undergraduate studies I worked at a tutoring program funded by my university to aid children who have difficulties at home and educational challenges. I also have experience as a CPR instructor, an EMT volunteer, an Emergency Room intern and general-hospital student abroad. I enjoy learning new skills during my free time, mainly in the arts. I recently started metal smithing, Jiu jitsu training, and learning Italian. I also love outdoor activities, especially going on walks and hiking with my kitten. While I might be involved in many things, my schedule is completely flexible. I really hope that I can be the right fit for your family, please feel free to message me for more information or a resume. Thank you for visiting my profile!

Crystal L., Babysitter in Evanston, IL 60201 with 6 years of paid experience

My name is Crystal, I am the product of a single mother so I understand how important child care can be to a parent. From watching my younger brother while my mother went to work, to co-running a day camp where I was in charge of taking care of a group of children from the ages of 4-8, then eventually being a care provider in a nursery, and a nanny to two little girls from the ages of 9-months to two years old I have always been passionate about providing exemplary child care. I love to read to/or with kids, play silly games and engage their interests because it brings them joy and that's the foundation of good child care. I am cautious of health concerns such as allergies and incredibly skilled with a first aid kit. I understand that a clean home is a happy home and I'll work to help you keep your space happy. I'm very good with pets of all kinds and do my best work under stress. Honesty is incredibly important to me especially where children are involved and it is something that you can expect from me at all times as well as responsibility and reliability.

Rosanne R., Babysitter in Evanston, IL 60201 with 10 years of paid experience

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
