I genuinely love children and I have always instantly connected with them. Even as a child I was helping take care of children due to my mother owning two of her own daycares. I am first aide & cpr certified as well as safe serv (food safety) certified.

- 2 years paid experience

Hey! My name is Ilknur, I know it’s a little different. I grew up in St.Louis and I went to SIU for English. My first job was at a daycare in St.Louis. I worked with newborns, toddlers and school age children. I was responsible for changing diapers, bottle feeding and making sure the newborns had their naps. In addition, I was also a Lead Teacher at Malone's Daycare in Carterville, IL for the 2 year old classroom. This role required lesson planning, being creative and was fast paced. I’m punctual, organized and very patient. I’m always on time and I don’t like being late. Most importantly I’m reliable and I take accountability for my actions like any adult should.

Hi there! I'm Oyin. I recently earned my degree in psychology and my masters in social work , and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter and worked a bright horizon and rainbows end. I have a lot of experience working with infants-school age, and I also spent three years babysitting a six-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.

I’ve been babysitting for a family in my home town for about 5 years now. I started when their oldest was 2 and youngest wasn’t born yet. I also have 3 brothers myself and a single mom so I’m very experience when it comes to everything. I’m currently a college student at SIUC studying Radiology and am looking for something to help bring in cash to pay for my schooling. I love kids and am very helpful when it comes to tidying up around the house as-well. I also have 3 dogs myself so pets of any kind are no issue at all.

Hi, My name is Eily Stoops! I am a freshman in college at SIU Carbondale! My major is Speech Language Pathology, and my dream is to work with young children! I believe babysitting during my studies will ultimately help me in my long term goal. I was a lifeguard for about 4 years before coming to college. I am certified in AED, CPR and First Aid. I absolutely adore children. I also have a brother that is 13 years younger than me, and is 7 now. I feel like I basically helped my mother raise him, so that definitely gave me some more experience! I would love to meet your families and ultimately be trusted to care for your children! Please feel free to reach out!
