Grace C., Babysitter in Mechanicsburg, IL 62545 with 1 year of paid experience

I’m a 19 year old with plenty of childcare experience. I completed 4 years of a Teaching Class in High school while shadowing a special needs pre-k class & worked in a Preschool for almost a year! I’ve also baby sat on the side since i was 15! I love connecting with the kids & getting to know them personally. I find when teaching children new things it’s always important that they’re taught with their personal needs in mind!

Caroline T., Babysitter in Mechanicsburg, IL 62545 with 2 years of paid experience

I'm a 22-year-old pre-med student looking to make some extra cash before medical school! I have experience babysitting for my niece (6) and nephew (9) since they were babies and working at a summer camp with 60 kids ages 5-12. I love all ages of kids but especially 4-7! I'm very comfortable with multiple kids and pets. I love getting to teach kids new skills and come up with fun crafts or games to keep them entertained! I'd be happy to help around the house with chores, cleaning, or cooking as well. Looking for up to 10 hours a week or as needed in the afternoons and early evenings as I work a full-time job at St. Johns from 4am-12:30pm Mon-Fri and every fourth weekend.

My name is Fiona! I am 19 years old, and I am very gentle and patient. I often babysit for friends and family, and enjoy making things as simple as possible for both parents and children alike. I work especially well with children that may have disabilities, as I myself have autism and ADHD, and can relate to and understand the struggles that a child may have in regards to learning disabilities.
