Sittercity helps Minooka families find the best babysitters

A highly energetic and motivated babysitter who is willing to care for kids in a fun, playful manner! I enjoy activities such as reading, writing, playing games, coloring, doing puzzles, outdoor activities, and many more. 2+ years experienced and CPR certified.

I have worked in the early childcare for 30 years. During that time I have worked with children of all ages from infants to school agers. I am passionate about helping children learn new things while having fun too. When I am not a work, I enjoy making crafts with my Cricut machine, photography, reading and playing games. I am happy to help children grow so they can flourish later, give me a call or text and we can talk some more.

I have been in the field of Child Care and Early Childhood Education for over 15 years. After graduating from Northern Illinois University with a Bachelor's Degree in Child Development, I began my career as an Early Childhood Educator. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children ranging in age from 3 months to 12 years. Working with children brings me so much joy. I’m passionate about early childhood education and truly believe the early years are the most important for sparking a lifelong love of learning, creativity, exploration, and play. I am also a proud mom of two wonderful children, ages 6 and 3. I’m currently seeking a position with a family who would welcome my 3-year-old to accompany me on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. She is a playful, kind, and sociable little girl who loves being around other children. With my professional experience as an educator and my personal experience as a mother, I offer a nurturing, dependable, and engaging environment for the children in my care. I strive to ensure your child always feels safe, respected, and loved while supporting their growth and development every step of the way. If you feel I could be a good fit for your family, I would love the opportunity to speak with you further.

Hi! I’m My’Anna, a 25-year-old babysitter with 8 years of hands-on experience caring for children from infants to preteens. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I specialize in creating a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for every child I care for. I offer help with homework, bedtime routines, potty training, and have experience working with children with special needs. With a high-energy personality and a background in music and theater, I love bringing creativity and fun into everyday activities.

Hi! My name is Kanyiti, and I’m a CPR-certified, non-smoking caregiver with 4 years of diverse childcare experience. I specialize in caring for children of all ages, having spent 2 years babysitting little ones and another 2 years working with children in kindergarten and first grade in after-school programs and at the YMCA. I also worked a couple summers as a camp counselor primarily with 6th and 7th graders. In summer 2023, I had the opportunity to volunteer at an elementary school in Ghana, where I supported early childhood education and gained even more hands-on experience with young children. My background has helped me develop a strong understanding of child development, routines, and how to create a nurturing, engaging environment. I love planning fun, age-appropriate activities like sensory play, stroller walks, music time, story time, and baby-safe arts and crafts for younger kids and bike rides, board games, baking and outdoor games for older kids. I’m also a proud cat owner of three, so I’m very comfortable in homes with pets of all kinds! I’m based in Yorkville, have a fully open and flexible schedule this summer, and am passionate about helping children thrive. I’d love the opportunity to care for your little one and be a positive part of your family’s routine!

Hello! I'm Taryn, a 21-year-old senior at Lincoln Memorial University with an exercise science major and a psychology minor. I'm on a pre-doctoral track for occupational therapy, and my dream is to be a pediatric occupational therapist. I'm trying to find a part—or full-time nanny job for this summer, and I'm always open to babysitting on an as-needed basis. With 8+ years of babysitting experience, I've worked at an after-school daycare program, as full-time nanny the past few summers, and as a regular babysitter for local families during the school year. My experience spans from infants to 6th graders, including children with special needs including autism, non-verbal communication, and a range of behavioral challenges. I have a unique perspective on special needs care due to my close relationship with my 10 year old brother. He was fostered and adopted as a newborn and is currently diagnosed with intermittent explosive disorder, ADHD, and a generalized anxiety disorder. With trauma and drug exposure in utero he was diagnosed with intermittent explosive disorder and ADHD. I prioritize creating a positive, nurturing environment for every child in my care. My experience has equipped me with the skills to handle a wide range of situations, including severe behavioral outbursts, with patience and understanding. I'm available during most afternoons/evenings, and during the weekends, and I'm always happy to meet with families before committing, to make sure we're good fit! Please don't hesitate to reach out - I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos!
