Hello! My name is Rachel, and it would be an honor to babysit your children. With my 6 years of experience in a paid childcare setting and an additional 3 years unpaid babysitting for friends and family, I ensure your children will be in great hands. I also have a child of my own who is now nine years old, which gives me some parenting experience. I have plenty of involvement with assisting children to meet the appropriate developmental stages for their age. I have multiple outlets for learning activities including fine motor and large motor skills. When babysitting, I will sometimes bring a bag filled with some materials to help assist with games and crafts (with permission). Kids usually love my big imagination, that I love to sing, my sensory crafts, and my outdoor skills/activities. Some extra duties I am willing to help out with would include light household cleaning if time, parents, and children allow it, potty training, grocery pick-up, and meal prep. I currently nanny for a family in Frankfort but my last day working for them will be June 26. I’m currently looking for a part-time position, but I’m also interested in full-time for the right family!

We had a wonderful experience with Rumyana. She was incredibly attentive, friendly, and caring with our 8-month-old. Her calm and reassuring presence immediately put us at ease, and she was very responsive to our baby’s needs. We would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to have her babysit again!

Hello Parents, I am currently seeking occasional date night opportunities. I have MANY years of experience working with children from birth to age 12. I have been babysitting since the age of 13, worked in daycare throughout college years, taught in the public school system and am currently a full-time nanny. I love being a nanny because I enjoy the ability of having one on one time with children. I believe that loving attention is so very important in a child's life. I will treat your children as my own!

Jill nannied for us for a year. She was always on time. Our kids loved her. She played interesting games with them and even taught our 4 year-old daughter the basics of reading! (Now she's 5 and reads all the time.) Due to a scheduling conflict she can no longer watch our kids, but she is very trustworthy.

Hi! My name is Taylor, I worked at a daycare for about a year in high school, did a lot of babysitting for family & friends. I went to Elementary school in Hyde park, later moved to the suburbs and went to high school at Thornwood, started college at Governors state. I joined sittercity because I eventually want to open up a daycare and thought I should start working more in the career I love and want to permanently work in. Whether it’s helping with homework, keeping little ones entertained, or just making sure they feel cared for, I’m here to help! I’m very responsible, reliable and patient. I’d be happy to support your family whenever you need an extra hand.

Taylor is great to work with and the baby loves her. The baby is always excited to see her. She is on time very energetic and has a lot of patience with young children. She’s very adaptable to changing situations and also she is communicative. She is truly a gem.

Hi, I’m Amy. Over the past 10 years, I’ve dedicated my career to working as a professional nanny/babysitter, helping children thrive across various developmental stages from infancy through the school-age years. My caregiving philosophy centers on patience, open communication, and creating a safe, stimulating environment where kids feel confident to explore and learn. Whether I’m organizing creative arts and crafts, helping with homework, or managing busy after-school schedules, my goal is always to seamlessly integrate into a family's routine and act as a reliable partner to parents.
