I love kids and welcome babysitting in the evenings and on weekends. I work full time during the week (so evenings/weekends are perfect for me!) I have babysat my entire live and was a nanny for 5 years. I've worked with numerous other Sittercity families and am always looking to grow with others! I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. I drive my own vehicle, live in Wicker Park/born and raised in Chicago, love pets, have amazing references, and am First Aid and CPR certified (Northwestern). I love kids - I love having them play and explore inside and outside the home. I love engaging them in new activities and motivating and challenging them to learn.

Hi! I’m an experienced, reliable babysitter with 10+ years of professional nanny experience and 2 years as a German Au Pair living with an American family. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged, and I’m comfortable managing multiple kids at once. I can help with everything from diaper changes and bedtime routines to homework, meal prep, and fun activities. I’m calm, organized, and happy to tidy up so you can come home to a smooth, settled house. As a parent myself, I understand how important trust is. My goal is simple: happy kids and relaxed parents

I adore Mona. Our family has known her for about 5 years now. Our daughters are best friends (from ages 5 to 9 currently), and I am so glad for that. We trust Mona - she’s smart, caring, generous, thoughtful and intentional. She believes in teaching and allowing kids age appropriate independence. She recognizes and meets kids where they are but also has a lot of fun. Mona is reliable, responsible and a great communicator - she drives my kids to school and takes them on fun adventures. She is artistic, loves animals, enjoys the outdoors, loves to garden and cook, and is very involved and active in her daughter’s school. Finally, I witness and observe how Mona is raising her own daughter. Not only am I incredibly grateful that my kids get the benefit of Mona’s huge heart and genuine care, but I too have grown as a parent from knowing her.

Kim has been a wonderful nanny. She is very caring and attentive to our daughter's needs, is kind and playful during her wake times, and soothing and calm during her nap times. Kim is punctual and responsible, easy to work with and schedule. We really appreciate that she always tries her best for our daughter, and highly recommend her.

Hi! My name is Bella. I am an occupational therapist working in schools. I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old and have a 10 year old kiddo. I absolutely LOVE children and try my best to ensure they get to live their best lives full of happiness, love, and their needs met! I value routines, but also encourage flexibility. I am looking for a summer job May- August. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I was also a lifeguard for 3 years and taught swim lessons before going into OT, so I am very comfortable around water safety.

Hello, my name is Bonnie. I'm 42 years old and I’ve been a babysitter for over 18 years. The most rewarding part of being a babysitter, for me, is watching and supporting children as they discover and develop their personalities. Some of my responsibilities have included: continuous care for families with 1-5 children, providing transportation to/from school and after school activities, art projects, trips to the library and park, bottle prep and feeding, cleaning dishes, laundry, baking, and meal preparation/light cooking. I'm seeking an opportunity to join another family in late August or early September. I will provide the attentive, loving care you desire for your infants and/or children.

Bonnie took care of our 1 year old daughter Addison and she was truly amazing. She seemed to care for her as if she were her own. Addison is our first and only child and yet, we felt at ease immediately trusting Bonnie with her. She was with us full-time, Monday - Friday, and our daughter was excited to see her every time she came to the house. Whether it was helping with our dogs, cleaning up in the house or changing her schedule, Bonnie was always agreeable and helpful in our home. She taught Addison what she could and showed great patience on trying days. We would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a nanny. She really cares about children and seems to have a perfect disposition for the job. We really appreciated everything about Bonnie and her care for our daughter.

We are thrilled to share our experience with Ruth, who has been an exceptional caregiver for our toddler son. From the moment she joined us, she has consistently demonstrated professionalism, kindness, and a genuine love for children. Ruth has a remarkable ability to connect with kids, making them feel comfortable and valued. She engages them in creative and educational activities that not only entertain but also contribute to their development. Her patience and understanding are truly commendable, especially when handling the occasional tantrum or two. One of the things we appreciate most about Ruth is her reliability and punctuality. She has always been there when we needed her, often going above and beyond to accommodate our schedules. We will definitely recommend her services if you're looking for a nanny/sitter for your child.

I have my CNA and CPR Certified. I've worked 12 years in pediatric icu and pediatrics. I am fully vaccinated as well. I can also be available for date nights on top of a weekly schedule. Hope to talk soon!

I highly recommend Ashley as a nanny for your family. Over the past 4.5 years, Ashley has been an invaluable member of our household, providing exceptional care for our three children. Her engaging personality, nurturing nature, and impeccable organizational skills make her an ideal candidate for any family seeking a dedicated and reliable childcare provider. First and foremost, Ashley’s ability to connect with children is truly remarkable. She interacts with our children in a way that is both engaging and educational, fostering a sense of curiosity and creativity in them. My children benefited greatly from interactions that involve positive emotions, high levels of engagement, and opportunities for exploration and learning. Ashley embodies all of these qualities in her interactions with our kids and consistently creates an enriching environment for their growth and development. Ashley’s nurturing nature is evident in the way she cares for our kids. She is attentive, patient, and compassionate, always putting the needs and well-being of our children first. Ashley’s ability to create a warm and nurturing environment for our children has been instrumental in their emotional and social development, fostering a sense of security and trust that has helped them flourish. In addition to her innate qualities as a caregiver, Ashley’s organizational skills and preparedness are unmatched. She goes above and beyond to ensure that she is fully prepared for any situation that may arise, whether it be a scheduled activity or an unexpected challenge. Her keen attention to detail and proactive approach have been invaluable to our family, especially during major milestones, especially that what can be dreaded task of potty training. Ashley successfully guided us through this challenging process not once, but twice. I cannot recommend Ashley enough as a nanny for your family. I am confident that Ashley will exceed your expectations and provide your children with the love, care, and support they need to thrive.

Hi! My name is Chloe Coss I am currently a senior at Prairie Ridge and I am 100% going to McHenry county college next year I plan on getting my associates in forensics and photography and moving to Orlando and becoming a crime scene investigator. I love children and I've worked around them since I was 13 years old I love going to the gym and I love being around my friends and family. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I’ve been around children since I was 13, and I find it really rewarding to build connections with them and be someone they feel comfortable with. Whether it’s playing games, helping with routines, or just making them smile, it’s something I truly enjoy doing.I have several years of experience working with children of different ages. I babysat for a family with three kids (ages 3, 5, and 3 months), where I helped with daily care, playtime, and routines. I also worked at Jump Zone as a party host, where I supervised children and made sure they were safe while having fun. Most recently, I worked at 2 Hours of Freedom, where I continued supervising and interacting with kids in an active environment. These experiences helped me learn how to manage groups of children and adapt to different personalities and needs.I have strong communication and patience when working with children, and I’m good at staying calm and responsible in different situations. I’m experienced in supervising kids, keeping them safe, and creating fun activities for them. I’m also very reliable, organized, and comfortable handling multiple children at once. In addition, I stay active and energetic, which helps me keep up with kids and engage with them in a positive way.
