Hello! My name is Linda, a 22 year old recent college graduate. I graduated from Elmhurst University with my Bachelor of Science in Public Health and a minor in Psych. Back in Elmhurst I also worked at an immediate care, meaning I am BLS certified. I used to nanny and babysit for many families back on campus, but am back in Rockford. I love kids and can provide many references. I am great with engaging kids and keeping them active with minimum screen time, as requested by parents. I met so many families back in Elmhurst, many of which I still keep in contact with. Looking to meet a family I can grow with :)

Hi there , A little bit about myself is that I'm a fun-loving babysitter. My name is Kathia I’m a Dekalb High School graduate looking to further my education with working with children. In high school I participated in my schools childcare “Alphabitty Chidlcare Program” learned many things as well as got certified in many areas .I love interacting with kids and being funny and goofy meanwhile still have them listen and respect me. Coloring, dancing, reading, making crafts It's all very easy for me to connect with kids. Keeping the child's well-being is something I take very seriously. I'm a healthy balance of an easy going/patient attitude, and assertive when needed. I understand the importance of my role, and I'm willing to take on that responsibility with your children,Thank you! CPR certified I have been working in a daycare from February 2023 up until now and I have been a floater helping in all of the classrooms and have 2 school age classrooms with 30 kids from k-5 I would say I am very experienced and I nannied for many families as well as a family of 3 for 2 1/2 years

Jackie was very professional and was always happy and friendly with us and the children. The children loved going to be at Jackie’s house. She would send pictures of things the kids were playing with. She would send the kids home with crafts that they did many times She always let us know what food they had thru day and even made a point to ask permission to give the three year old lime with baking soda for a tummy ache one day. Whenever the weather was good she would be outside with the kids playing every time I came to pick them up.

Hello! My name is Bella Rosado, and I love working with children. I was a nanny for a summer before I got internships related to my studies, and provided regular babysitting in the years prior and after that summer. The boys I took care of labeled me as "Best Babysitter Bella", becuas we had a BLAST together, so I am hoping to maintain that title! My skills include housekeeping, pet care, safe driving practices, meal/snack prep, and much more to make you and your kids happy and at ease. I have a reliable midsize SUV, no crash record, and am willing to drive the kids or run errands if needed. Some more about me... I LOVE being outside and playing games. I am on the golf team at Olivet, and am double majoring in Accounting and Finance. I am always down for some outside or inside play/game time. I love to be creative and encourage children to do the same, with skills in sewing, graphic design, card-making, etc. As a babysitter, my goal is to encourage children to act responsibly, but stay curious. I love to enable each child's personal interests and make sure they know that I am happy to hear and learn about things that make them happy! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, hope to get in touch soon! Bella
